CARITAS Collection - From April 7th to April 15th, a group of students will be collecting dry goods like rice and crackers as well as canned goods ranging from soup to beans, pasta with and without sauce, baby food, and baby formula for newborns.
Volleyball for Good - Several sporty 8th graders are busy recruiting staff and students to participate in a benefit match on the evening of Tuesday, April 8th to help raise funds for 30 new long sleeve Volleyball jerseys. Cost to play or attend will be $5; additional donations enthusiastically accepted. All proceeds will be used toward their $1,200 project goal.
Community Car Wash - Happening Friday, March 28th from 3:30 until 5pm in the front parking lot of the school. Proceeds will benefit the SMCS Library.
Stopping the Scroll - Two students presented to their Middle School peers on the mental health risks of social media and how to stay safe when using various platforms. You can learn more about state legislation set to take effect on 1/1/26 and discuss the topic with your own kids. Communication is key to keeping our kids safe and healthy!
