B.L. Miller Elementary hosts space-themed event | News, Sports, Jobs

Sebring students and their families recently enjoyed a unique experience at a family engagement night, lining up to enter the mobile planetarium known as the “Sky Dome”. Over 200 participants explored their curiosity of space at B.L. Miller Elementary gymnasium, following the solar eclipse on April 8.

During the event, attendees embarked on guided tours through the universe inside the inflatable planetarium for 45-minute sessions provided by Mobile Ed Productions. The event was made possible by the sponsorship of United Way’s Success After 6 program.

Jill Dennis, the family engagement coordinator for Sebring Local Schools and Success After 6 coordinator, expressed gratitude for the collaborative effort that made the event a success. Students and families had a blast exploring space, learning about the sun, moon, stars, and universe from the comfort of the gym.

Sebring’s Partners In Education (P.I.E.) supported the event by offering food for purchase, with proceeds going towards future activities and events for Sebring students. Families also participated in bingo games in between tour sessions, with winners receiving Oh WOW! STEM Sak bundles.

One lucky student won a grand prize National Geographic 70m Sky View Telescope, provided by SA6. Mobile Ed Productions specializes in live, educational entertainment, assemblies, and workshops, enhancing the learning experience for attendees.
