SMS Welcomes a New Teacher this semester

Please help us welcome Maci Burris as our new faculty member. She graduated from Henderson State University in December. She was the most outstanding intern last semester. We are so excited to have her with us this semester.

We Love Our Counselor!

Student ID Badges

This week, each student at SMS received a personal identification badge and lanyard to be worn each day at school. We have added these for streamlining processes such as lunches, library, transportation, and event attendance. Students will be required to wear their badge each day to identify them as a student at Sheridan Middle School, and replacement badges will cost the student $5. Please encourage our students to wear their ID badges daily. Thank you all for your support of SMS.

Drop Off and Pick Up Procedures

Please watch this video that shows our drop off and pick up areas. Please do not drop off your student at the front door before 8:00 am. Students can be dropped using the street behind the school starting at 7:30 am. Please do not drive through the bus lane. This will ensure the safety of all students. Thank you for your help with this.

Summer 2024 Washington D.C. Tour

What a thrill it is to announce that you are invited to our meeting about the Summer 2024 tour to Washington D.C. To attend, please be sure to register through this link. This is an amazing opportunity to learn more about our country, gain new perspectives, get out of your comfort zone and build skills for the future.
