It's Middle Level Education Month, and we're thrilled to be kicking off the fourth annual MIDDLE SCHOOL STUDENT SOUND OFF. 🗣️
Students can sound off on their middle school experience by responding to one of our prompts. Because we know that each middle schooler has different interests, talents, and ways of expressing themselves, they can submit in the format that most appeals to them! Submissions are due April 3 👉 https://t.co/pd8teUTONj
