A Conversation with Michael Grismer: Class of 2023 Graduate

The end of the school year is upon us. For younger students, this means the anticipation of summer vacation. For high school seniors, this means the first step into a different reality. Different students choose different paths, and while those first steps seem insurmountably large at times, they're the most important, because they will set the pace for things to follow. On this episode of Spotlight, Superintendent Stavem sits down with Michael Grismer, a high school senior from Roosevelt HS and a member of the class of 2023. Michael is an exceptionally bright student with high academic achievements and a passion for learning. This conversation covers a little bit of everything, from Michael's success as a student, to how school districts can cultivate a passion for learning, to the future of AI and it's role in education. Join Dr. Stavem and Michael in this fascinating conversation that offers up a look at the Sioux Falls School District from the viewpoint of a student. As we close the book on another school year completed, the topics we cover here give us a moment to reflect on the past and look towards the future. *AND* Congratulations to Michael Grismer on a remarkable K12 student career! We look forward to seeing all of your future success!
