Our third graders had a Heroes Museum filled with some very interesting characters! I saw Amelia Earhart, Neil Armstrong, Abe Lincoln, George Washington, Albert Einstein, and lots more. We loved welcoming in guests to tour the museum and hear about their lives. Great job!










SMS is proud to have a beginning Band program, a Children's Choir and a School Musical as opportunities for our students. All of these students have spent countless hours practicing and we love getting to watch them as they share their gifts with the world!
