Spartan PRIDE
Supporting our school community core values.
It has been a couple week since I had last shared news related to Spearfish Middle School. We are moving right along. Spring is upon us and that means planning for next year. Sixth and seventh grade students should have their registration forms completed and returned to the office. If you have not selected classes for next year, please contact the office for more information.
We are approaching a much anticipated Easter Break and vacation. It will be a few days of relaxation and spending time with family. The time off is a great opportunity for leisure reading. I encourage students to find a good book and read it from cover to cover. Parents can join in and create a book club discussion opportunity. I have included the week's schedule and upcoming events below.

Your
mind can focus on fear, worry, problems, negativity, or despair. Or
it can focus on confidence, opportunity, solutions, optimism and success. You decide. –Don Ward
