They are facing a large projection screen at the front of the room displaying "Today's Agenda," which includes sections for "Pacing Guide Check-In," "ERs," "Next Steps," and "Q&A." The room is filled with bookshelves along the walls, and several participants are using laptops at their tables.

The students, many wearing navy blue and white uniforms, are seated at individual desks arranged in rows, with some looking toward the teacher and others focused on the presentation.
A brightly lit school hallway with polished floors and rows of blue lockers lining both sides. Several students are visible; some are walking through the hall while others stand at their lockers. A colorful "Happy Birthday" bulletin board is mounted on the wall to the left.
A group of middle school students stand in a circle around a teacher who is sitting cross-legged on the classroom floor.
