3rd Quarter Comes to an End
More important than grades, however, is the feeling middle schoolers get when they experience success. Success breeds confidence and confidence breeds success- the two are intertwined. We want our Mustangs in the Middle to gain confidence in everything they do and build off of their successes to help make them productive members of our community all the while simply feeling good about themselves.
Thank you, parents, for all that you do to help support teaching and learning here at SMS!

Pay For It Upgrade
PayForIt has upgraded their online payment platform to PaySchools Central. Strongsville City Schools will be transitioning from PayForIt to PaySchools Central during the week of Spring Break, beginning Monday March 25, 2019. Although this upgrade is intended to be seamless, you will have to register with PaySchools Central, using a desktop/laptop computer with your PayForIt credentials. The auto-replenishment feature in PayForIt will not be activated in PaySchools Central until you login to PaySchools Central for the first time. Once registered, you will be able to use the PaySchools Mobile App, which will need to be downloaded from your app store.
Please login to PaySchools Central beginning Monday March 25, 2019 after 10:00am to transition your PayForIt account to PaySchools Central. All current PayForIt account balances will transfer over to your PaySchool Central account once this process is complete.
Complete step by step instructions are available by clicking the link here.
Please contact the Treasurer’s Office at 440-572-7021 or devangelista@scsmustangs.org if you have any questions or need assistance.
