Wrangler Weekly
Week of August 28, 2023

Message from Ms. Bratton, principal
It has been a great first week at SBMS. Our students have been excited to see each other and meet their teachers, our staff have been working all week to build connections with and between students, and our traffic has become at least a bit more manageable.
Regarding traffic, thank you for your patience as we have continued to assess and adjust our system. The growing numbers at both ASES and SBMS and the construction on 46 are all things we are working around.
Regarding questions and concerns about school supplies and PE uniforms, please reach out to teachers and coaches. They are happy to help and can get you information quickly.
Finally, tutorials begin this coming week. Please encourage your student to attend if they need assistance, and if you have questions about tutorials, reach out to your child's teacher(s).
Thank you again for a great week!
P.S. Almost all students received their student ID today. They will be expected to have it on every day they come into the building. They should not put stickers over their faces or on the ID. Please help your student to be in compliance with this district expectation.
Go Wranglers!
Ms. Bratton
