The day-long experience strengthens emotional safety and social relationships, positively influences educational achievement, builds cross cultural connections, and reduces conflict and bullying.

 

Next week, Challenge Day representatives will be in the Fond du Lac area visiting local schools.  They will be at SMSA on Wednesday, December 18, 2019. This wonderful event is for our Freshman class and high school students new to the System.  SMSA has participated in the Challenge day program for four years in a row.
