This National Assistant Principals Week, we celebrate the exceptional assistant principals across BCPS who lead with courage, serve with compassion, and inspire excellence in our schools every day. Their work often happens behind the scenes, but their impact is felt in every classroom, every campus, and every student success story. Thank you for being difference-makers for our students, staff, and families. #APWeek26 #BCPSProud #OneBroward @browardschools@HowardHepburn
From Sawgrass to Seagrass.
An inspiring visit to Sawgrass Springs Middle School, home to an outstanding Environmental Science Innovative Program under the passionate leadership of Ms. Wessinger.
With a gopher tortoise preserve, outdoor classroom, and real-world environmental exploration, students don’t just learn science, they live it.

Fieldwork. Wildlife. Real impact. 💧
Track water from sawgrass to seagrass, explore a sea turtle nest 🐢, protect a gopher tortoise preserve 🦎, and learn outdoors. This is science in action at Sawgrass Springs Middle School. 🌎.
