Clubs & Extracurricular Activities for Students~   

SEP stands for Student Exploration Projects. This is the fifth year that SEP will be offered to ALL students at MMS who choose to be a part of it!!  SEP is similar to Project Based Learning, but students have complete choice in the topic that they want to discover.  Students may work solo or they can collaborate with a partner(s) of their choice.  SEP usually begins around the end of October and lasts through the end of April.  We strongly encourage students to be a part of SEP this year and discover/explore a topic that they are passionate about.  A final presentation will be in the spring. We primarily use Google Classroom to communicate and track work.  We meet every three weeks to check in!

Some of the Topics that Students have Explored over the Years:

• How Can We Improve Emergency Services in our Community

• Gerrymandering and the Efficiency Gap in NC (compared to national trends)

• Immigration in the US and Mexico

• Spreading Awareness- Child Abuse and Foster Care

• Epicurean Philosophy and its Relevance in Modern Society

• DIY Dual Language experiments

• Period Poverty and Ways to Help

• Social Media and the Effects on Teens

• Biomimicry  and How it Can Be Helpful

• Humans' Impact on Red Wolves 

• Diversity in Children's Books

The sky is the limit when choosing a project to explore!
