Support Your Spartans

All types of activites are in full swing here at SMS. Girls basketball and wrestling are constantly competing, choir and band are preparing for their winter concerts, and students have just begun a new trimester of classes. Please support your students in every way you can. It's great to see friends and family members at sporting events. Athletes really enjoy and appreciate your support. The choir concert is coming up on December 3rd at 7:00 in the SHS auditorium. The band is performing on December 10th also at 7:30 in the SHS auditorium. Even if you don't have students participating in activties, please come out and show your support for the great kids we have at SMS. If you're unsure as to our events schedule, all activities are listed on the activities calendar located on the SMS homepage: http://spearfish.k12.sd.us/sms/index.html. Students also need your support in their academic endeavors. Consider setting up a regular time to talk about what is going on in their classes, review homework, and to log on to parent portal to check their progress. It may seem silly to make an appointment with your middle schooler, but as hectic as many of our lives are, it can be a way to connect and talk about school in a purposeful and productive way.
