Thanksgiving Giving
We have two very exciting opportunities to give back to our community during the month of November. We hope you can help!
Sleep in Heavenly Peace (SHP): SMCHS is partnering with the local chapter of SHP, a national nonprofit to raise funds for children living in poverty. All donations go to the building and delivery of beds for children that don't have a bed or sleep on the floor. The child is also given a mattress, a pillow, sheets, and a comforter. The SHP nonprofit has delivered 35 beds so far in the Appleton/Menasha area in the last two months and have several requests for more. For every $200 donated, the SMCHS community will be granted a pajama casual dress day. We will be collecting money November 28-December 2. Our goal is to raise $400 and have two Pajama Days. Parents can send the donation through the office or send with their child.
Thanksgiving Meals: Key Club is collecting food and money to provide a Thanksgiving meal to area families in need. Students are encouraged to bring items from the list below to school from November 14-16. In addition to the items listed, Key Club also purchases the turkeys for each family and would gladly accept any monetary donations to help modify the rising costs associated with turkey purchasing.
Items needed:
Thanksgiving Holiday Office Hours
The school and business offices will be closed Monday, November 21 through Friday, November 25. School and normal office hours resume on Monday, November 28. Have a blessed Thanksgiving!
School Drop Off Reminders
When dropping off students in the morning, PLEASE adhere to the following:
- Wait to have your student exit the vehicle until you are in front of the common's door.
- Do not pull around to pass a car droppping off students. Please wait, as going around is very dangerous.
- Pull forward as far as possible (past the high school doors) before stopping for your child(ren) to get out. This will allow more cars enter the lane.
- Please exit the vehicle as quickly as possible.
