Spartan PRIDE
Supporting our school community core values.
Dear SMS Supporters:
Homecoming week has arrived! I have included some basic information about activities planned for the week. If you plan to have your child checked out of school to watch the parade with you, please make a call to the office to make this arrangement. Additionally, all students who are not in the parade will be expected to remain under the supervision of SMS staff during the parade. Once the parade is over students will come back to the school to wait for the dismissal bell and bus pick up. If want check your child out of school early, you will want to do this prior to the parade on Friday.
