SMES PTO UPDATES SMES PTO UPDATES

SMES PTO UPDATES

Our Adopt-a-Classroom program is still open! Families can adopt an entire classroom for $200 or contribute in $50 increments to share a classroom with other families. Every donation goes directly to the selected teacher or staff member to support classroom enhancements and student needs.

Adopt-a-Classroom: https://bit.ly/SMESAdoptaClassroom2026

We are also continuing our PTO fundraising efforts to support student experiences, activities, and programs throughout the school year. One of our largest upcoming needs is helping provide four buses for the school-wide National Air & Space Museum field trip this December. We are working toward a fundraising goal of $15,000 to help make this and other opportunities possible for our students.

Every contribution, big or small, helps the PTO continue supporting SMES students, teachers, and school experiences throughout the year.

Please see the attached flyers for additional information and donation details.

Thank you for your continued support of our SMES students!

Healthy Students Are Ready to Learn

Dear Parents,

The holidays are a busy time, but maintaining healthy habits helps teens stay focused and feel their best.

Encourage your student to build these five habits this season:

1. Get enough sleep. Teens need about 8 to 10 hours of sleep a night to stay alert and healthy.

2. Practice good hygiene. Regular handwashing and covering coughs prevent the spread of illness.

3. Stay active. Even short walks or sports with friends can boost energy and mood.

4. Make wise food choices. Balance holiday treats with fruits, vegetables, and water.

5. Manage stress. Support your teen in setting limits and taking breaks from screens and social media.

Our Choptank Health providers play a crucial role in preparing our students for learning by offering medical, dental, nutrition, and behavioral health services, all on a schedule that also benefits our parents. They work with your primary health care provider to keep your students as healthy as they can be. You can enroll your child in School-Based Health at any time throughout the year. For more information, including enrollment forms, locations, and contact details, visit www.choptankhealth.org/schoolbased.

Cat Kid and Molly Pollywog start a comic club for 21 baby frogs. It’s a funny show about creativity, imagination, and friendship.

Families can receive a 10% discount when they purchase tickets to all three shows in the same transaction. The offer ends November 6.

The Avalon is also providing free school-day bus-in performances for many grades this year, with support from the Sara B. Ryan Fund. Annie, the Avalon’s holiday production, is coming soon, too, and tickets will be on sale shortly.

The Avalon Children’s Theatre will also have children’s shows this spring. We’ll share more information as soon as it’s available.

We hope you and your family can join us for a show!
