FROM THE PRINCIPAL

One of the themes we continue to work on with the students is how we treat each other. Our faculty and staff work hard to model Christian behavior toward one another and the students. Throughout the year, at assemblies and in class, we will be reinforcing this. It is our goal to educate and nurture every aspect of our students- academically, emotionally, and spiritually.

 

FALL FUNDRAISER

All Fundraiser forms and money were due on Wednesday, September 26.  NO ORDERS WILL BE ACCEPTED AFTER MONDAY, OCTOBER 1.  If you have any questions, please call Debbie Bush, 279-3829.

 

MARKET DAY

This month Market Day has challenged our school to increase our customer count by 10 over last year at this time.  With just 87 orders, totaling at least $4953, Market Day will donate $400 worth of Scholastic Books to SMM.  This goal is easily reachable if just a few families from each classroom (and of course our loyal customers) give Market Day a try!  Order forms can be turned in to the school office by Tuesday, October 2nd or orders can be placed online at www.marketday.com  Order pickup is Saturday, October 6th from 9 – 10am in the school gym.  Thanks for your support!!

 

DENIM DRESS DOWN DAY

On Friday, October 5 we will be dressing down in denim to support breast cancer research.  There is a $1.00 donation for each student to dress down in denim that day.  If you have any questions, please call the school office.

Registration begins at 8:30 with walk starting at 9:00 and complimentary pancake breakfast at 9:30 for all walkers.  Walk donation is $5.00 per person, $15.00 per family.  Please make check payable to the Carol A. Flanagan’s Footsteps Walk.  Entry forms are available at the walk or in the school office.

 

SMM SKATING PARTY/DRESS DOWN DAY

The 8th Grade Civics Club is sponsoring their first of several dress down/skating party days for our school.  Our first skating party this year will be Wednesday, October 10th from 6:30 – 9:00pm at Skate America (Grove City).  Tickets go on sale at school Friday October 5th for $3.00.  The price at the door is $4.00.  In addition, if you buy a $3.00 presale ticket you will also receive a free dress down pass for Wednesday, October 10.  If you don’t wish to go to the skating party, you can still buy a dress down pass for $2.00.  Remember, there is NO SCHOOL on October 11 & 12.  Let’s see a great turnout for our 1st skating party of the school year!
