Principal's Corner
November 16th - November 20th
Families,
We did it! We are 1/4 of the way through the school year. I am very proud of the way that our entire community has adapted to a new way of doing school. We will try to cut down on the number of emails sent as we get "back into the groove" of teaching & learning, but be sure to check your emails for any updates on transitioning to a Hybrid Schedule.
As we prepared for Quarter 2, we got to get out and see some students last week while we presented them with Student of the Month awards. Please see below for each of our grade level recipients. I am very grateful that we have way more the 12 students that received the SoM honors that display Integrity. Thank you to all our students that show PRIDE day-in and day-out.
Also below are ways that you can help support South Middle School. Our PTSA is seeking your help this Holiday Season in earning money for our school. Check out how you can do that by shopping at Fred Meyer, Amazon, and using Box Tops for Education in scanning your grocery receipt at any store.
As always, check our this week's Family Character Dare for a suggestion on building intentional time into your family schedule. Our November Middle Years article is also available for you as well.
Have the best week!
Mr. Sale
NO TECH TABLE TIME
Have a no technology dinner night.
Have everyone store phones and other distractions away and enjoy a meal or snack together.
