🎉 Happy Special Education Week!

Today we celebrate inclusion, teamwork, and the unique strengths of every student. Let’s appreciate the students, teachers, and staff who work hard every day to make our school a supportive and welcoming place for all.

💙 Everyone learns differently—and that’s something to celebrate!

6th graders in Mrs. Drees's language arts classroom enjoyed a relaxing but exciting read-aloud, Alone by Megan E. Freeman, as part of their themed survival unit. What a great way to kickstart the week after a break!

Parker’s Homeroom students added leaves to our Thankful Tree. Hearing their gratitude and appreciation for the blessings in their lives was such a joy to share! 🍂

Right before we headed home early due to the blizzard (and just in time for Thanksgiving break) we wrapped up November with a sweet reward for great attendance!

Our top three homerooms with the highest attendance percentages earned the chance to select one student to pie a staff member in the face… and they did not disappoint!

👏 Congratulations to Mrs. Drees, Mrs. Stolp, and Mrs. Jark’s homerooms for winning the November Attendance Challenge!

And a HUGE shoutout to our amazing staff members who took one for the team: SRO Olson, Ms. Leitheiser, and Ms. Thompson. THANK YOU for being such great sports and for helping us show students that showing up matters (even if it means taking a pie to the face)!

🎄✨ Save the date - the sounds of the season are coming! Our holiday concerts are right around the corner and you won’t want to miss the music, magic, and merriment.
🔗Livestream links and concert programs will be shared soon!

Congratulations to our November Student of the Month winners!

Students in 6th grade language arts classes put their crime solving skills to the test to solve the dreaded question: Who Stole the Pumpkin Pie?

Ms. Leitheiser's homeroom created a flock of gratitude.

SMS FACS students make pizza crust from scratch.

Our students didn’t get a chance to vote for their favorite disguised turkeys, and our Youth Power kids worked WAY too hard on these creations to let them go unnoticed!
