SME Purple Up Day! Teachers, Staff and Students showed support of our Military Students and Families by wearing their purple. The students of Military Families shared time during their resource with family members and other Military students engaging in many fun activities and craft projects. Each student received a special goody bag and Purple Bear, each item were symbols of support they receive throughout the school year. This was a GREAT day for our Military Students and their Families!
