Earlier this month, 8th-grade JMG students were challenged to conduct one-on-one interviews with someone in the career field they were hoping to learn more about.  Gianna Garneau and Mattea Peters had the incredible opportunity to interview Capt. Brooks from the York County Sheriff's Office, gaining valuable insights into what it takes to become a criminal investigator or detective.  A huge thank you to Capt. Brooks for taking the time to visit Sanford Middle School and inspire our students with his expertise and passion for public service.
