Ms. Collin's RTI students used Play-Doh to annotate the story "Nimona."

Empathy ~ the ability to be aware of, understand, and be sensitive to another person’s feelings. Instead of focusing on how these feelings impact us, empathy motivates us to focus on others and respond with care and compassion

At Sheridan Middle School, we follow The Yellowjacket Way—our schoolwide behavior expectations that help students be successful in every setting. The Yellowjacket Way focuses on being Responsible, Respectful, and Ready at all times, whether in the classroom, hallways, cafeteria, or on the bus. By practicing these expectations, our students build a positive learning environment where everyone can grow and succeed.

We want all students to feel comfortable, safe, and ready to learn. Parents and students share the responsibility for choosing school-appropriate attire. Clothing should not pose a safety risk, cause distractions, or disrupt the learning environment.

Please avoid wearing items such as: midriff-baring tops, shoulder straps less than 3 inches wide, short skirts/shorts (more than 4 inches above the knee), see-through garments, pajamas or lounge wear, visible undergarments, offensive or suggestive messages, sagging pants, or clothing with excessive rips above the knee. Headwear, hoods, sunglasses, and shoes with cleats or wheels are also not permitted.

For a full list of dress code guidelines, please refer to page 120 of the Student Handbook, available online for parent access. Thank you for helping us maintain a positive and distraction-free environment for all students.

Every student should have their badge front and center all day long, showing off their SMS spirit. Need a replacement? Stop by the office before school or during lunch to pick one up for $5 and stay ready to represent!
