Justin Bachman Visits SMS!
Justin Bachman is a Senior at Syracuse University. He knows first hand what it is like to be different.
After facing a great deal of intolerance, Justin founded a non-profit called Different Like You. Through this organization, he developed programming that has helped people to embrace their differences and do what he calls Living Loud. Justin has spoken at over 150 school in 15 states and his programs have touched over 100,000 people!
Among many other awards, Justin is a recipient of two Volunteer Service Awards from President Barack Obama.
Justin’s favorite activity is speaking with audiences on the importance of tolerance and acceptance.

SMS GIVES BACK:
Over the past 14 years, the Strongsville Middle School faculty, staff, students and parents have worked to brighten the holidays for deserving SMS families. PTA has been a part of the "SMS Gives Back" initiative, thanks to the generous donations and hard work of our parents. This is such a worthwhile cause, and we want to continue the tradition of helping our Strongsville Middle School families during the holidays. If you would like to donate please go to the link below to sign up. Thank you!
