SMSD Recess Policy
The SMSD district recess policy is that all students will go outside if the regular temp is above 15 degrees and the windchill is above 0. We will not allow students to stay indoors for recess unless they have a documented health condition and note from a healthcare provider (doctor or nurse practitioner) stating the student must stay inside for recess. A note from a parent is not adequate. Please make sure your student has proper outdoor attire: coat, hat and gloves during the winter months.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
La política del recreo del distrito SMSD es que todos los estudiantes irán afuera si la temperatura normal está por encima de 15 grados y vientos son superior a 0. No permitiremos que los estudiantes permanezcan dentro del edificio a la hora del recreo a menos de que tengan una condición de salud documentada y nota de un médico (médico, enfermera o profesional) indicando que el estudiante debe permanecer dentro a la hora del recreo. Una nota de los padres no es suficiente. Por favor, asegúrese de que su estudiante tenga una vestimenta apropiada al aire libre: abrigos, gorros y guantes durante los meses del invierno.

Welcome to Shawnee Mission’s Acclaimed Summer Enrichment Program
Looking for something engaging for the kids to do this summer? Plan ahead before you hear those dreaded words, “I’m bored! ere is nothing to do!”
Thousands of students have spent their summers with the Shawnee Mission Summer Enrichment program learning through art, music, technology, science, and theatre, all while having a great time! Fun activities are waiting at Shawnee Mission’s Summer Enrichment program in all of our classes!
The Shawnee Mission Summer Enrichment program offers a variety of classes for children entering grades one through eight in the fall of 2018. Additionally, we have a program designed just for the little ones where students entering pre-k or kindergarten gain a few fundamental school readiness skills. Our program has been successful for over thirty years, with children returning year a er year to enjoy the interaction and stimulation provided by this enrichment format. Our program is also great for working families. Your children can arrive at 7:30 a.m. for early care, take a morning class, eat lunch and play at recess with their new friends, take an afternoon class, and then play some more until 5:30 p.m. in our late care. Your child remains engaged throughout the summer through a variety of activities in a safe and structured environment!
Take a look through our catalog. It is led with all the information you need to select classes and enroll. We look forward to having your child join in the fun at the Shawnee Mission Summer Enrichment program.
