North Sevier Middle School proudly celebrated Constitution Week from February 23–27, marking the 250th anniversary of the United States Constitution with a week full of learning, school spirit, and meaningful civic engagement. The highlight of the celebration was a special assembly featuring Beau Mason, Utah State Public Safety Commissioner, and Thomas Burr, a longtime journalist who covered the White House, Congress, and federal agencies for more than two decades. Both men are proud graduates of North Sevier High School, making their return especially meaningful for students. During the assembly, Mason and Burr spoke about the importance of the Constitution, civic responsibility, and the value of setting high goals and working hard to achieve them. Their personal stories showed students that big dreams can start in small communities and that dedication and perseverance truly matter.
Throughout the week, history classrooms were packed with Constitution-focused lessons, discussions, and activities. Students also participated in engaging lunchtime events such as Bill of Rights Bingo, iCivics “Do I Have a Right?”, and Founding Fathers Four Corners, all designed to make learning about government interactive and fun. School spirit was on full display as students dressed in red, white, and blue, culminating in “Dress as Your Favorite President or Founding Father Day” on Friday. History classes also celebrated Presidents’ Birthday with cake and a Readers Theater, bringing historical figures and events to life in a memorable way.
From classrooms to assemblies to lunchtime activities, Constitution Week at North Sevier Middle School was an engaging and inspiring experience. It was truly an awesome week—one that helped students better understand their rights, their government, and their potential as future leaders.
