Happy Easter! May your next few weeks be filled with the joy of the Easter season. Next year’s academic calendar may be found on our website. Please take time to explore it and plan accordingly.
As we enter spring, I would like to affirm our commitment to providing a positive and productive educational environment for all students. To facilitate this, we have engaged in communication with our K-8 faculty and staff regarding our POSITIVE SCHOOL CLIMATE PHILOSOPHY and expectations at SMSA. In turn, I share the following link and added details with you regarding disciplinary actions and consequences which, as a reminder, begin at the lowest level of intervention and progress as necessary, pending the situation.
Grades P3 – 8 Discipline Philosophy: Positive School Climate (page 14 of the handbook)
Grades P3 – 8 Disciplinary Procedures to Maintain a Positive School Climate (page 20 of the handbook)
Thank you for your partnership. Our school community is special and has the ability for everyone to lean in and support the best student outcomes regardless of the circumstances that are presented. Everyone together will create global leaders for tomorrow.
Forward testing began on Wednesday, April 7, 2021 and will conclude on Friday, April 16, 2021. Please click here to learn more about the Wisconsin Forward Assessment.

God Bless,
