SMS Hornet Highlights
For the week of April 29th, 2024
Dear SMS Families,
Last week was an eventful week at SMS with track meets, M-STEP testing, and summative projects! 6th grade students wrapped up a multimedia project and began practice for the annual kickball competition. They finished the week with a presentation from the SADD group. 7th grade students completed M-STEP in ELA and Math which is scheduled to wrap up tomorrow. Additionally, they worked on theme and summative writing assessments. 8th grade students will be taking the M-STEP science and social studies tests this coming week. Last week, they began The Outsiders in ELA - always a favorite - and dug into the effects of globalization in social studies.
Great job SMS Hornets!

Transportation
As a reminder, On May 1, the Ride 360 app that Saline Area Schools uses to provide our families with student transportation and bus route information will be retired, and an updated app will be available to all users. This new app, My Ride K-12, can be downloaded now in the Apple and Android app stores, or by accessing this customized link for Saline Area Schools families. Usernames and passwords from Ride 360 will carry over into My Ride K-12. Additionally, you can use your existing log-in information to access a web version of My Ride K-12 at myridek12.tylerapp.com. New users will need their student’s 6-digit ID number in order to register and establish their account.
To learn more about My Ride K-12 or to access user guides, please visit the Saline Area Schools Transportation Department website.

During school pick-up times, it's crucial to prioritize curb cuts for individuals with mobility needs. By reserving these spaces, we ensure accessibility, safety, and inclusivity for everyone in our community. Let's work together to make our school environment welcoming and accommodating for all.
