FROM THE PRINCIPAL

Thanks to all who participated in our blood drive for the Red Cross. Our goal was 29 donors and we had over 50!!! Congratulations to the 3rd grade class. They were credited with 17 donors. Great job!!

 

H1N1 SHOTS AVAILABLE

Pediatric Physicians in Hilliard has H1N1 shots available to non-patients for $10.00.  If you are interested, please call their office at 771-0200 to schedule an appointment.

 

STUDENT ABSENCES

It is very important that we have a note from the parent for ANY absence from school and especially if a child has been out for several days.  Even if you call the school office we must have a note.   If you are picking up your child early, for any reason, please send a letter that morning to the homeroom teacher letting them know the student is leaving early.

 

FOOD DRIVE

The SMM 8th Grade Civics Club is holding a food drive to provide assistance to needy  Westside families.  Students should bring canned goods and non-perishable foods to school November 16 – 20.  The homeroom that brings in the most items will receive a pizza party (based on average of students in homeroom).  The homeroom that finishes 2nd will get a treat.  Thank You.  8th Grade Civics Club
