Our ATLAS Summative exams begin this week. Please make sure students are present on these dates so that they can test.

As we continue into the second semester, help us to encourage students to follow the Yellowjacket Way behavior matrix. We want all students to be successful, and following the three principles of the Yellowjacket way will help them achieve that. A link to the full matrix can be found at the bottom of the newsletter.

Registration is now open for Sheridan Junior Babe Ruth Baseball. This league is for 13-15 year olds interested in playing baseball. Players who turn 16 prior to May 1 of the current season are not eligible unless they are a freshman in High School. The home games will be played at the Parks and Recreation Center field near Rose Street in Sheridan. Some travel may be required to play other teams in the area. Please sign up today by visiting leaguelineup.com/sybl or visit our Facebook page “Sheridan Youth Baseball League.”

Perseverance is the willingness and ability to keep going when things are tough. People who persevere show steadfastness and give the extra effort needed to do something despite how hard it is or how long it takes to reach the goal.

April & May's CKH nominees will be awarded at the End of Year Awards Ceremony in May.

"Perseverance is failing 19 times and succeeding the 20th." ~ Julie Andrews

All students are required to wear their badges front and center at all times. If you do not have your badge upon arrival at school you will be asked to 1. call a parent to bring your badge from home, 2. purchase a new badge, or 3. receive consequences including d-hall. If a student chooses to remove their badge throughout the day they are subject to the same consequences as above.

While we encourage you to be comfortable, please remember that wearing pajamas, house shoes, and headwear is not permitted under our dress code. Be mindful of your attire choices to avoid any dress code violations.

All electronic devices including cell phones and earbuds must be powered down and put in backpacks away from your person upon arrival at SMS. These devices must stay put away for the duration of the school day.
