๐งน๐ Happy National Custodian Day! ๐๐งน
Today, we want to give a BIG shout-out to our amazing school custodians! ๐ Our school wouldnโt be the same without all the hard work, dedication, and care that goes into keeping SWMS clean, safe, and ready for our students and staff each day.
From keeping our halls shining to taking care of all the little things that make a BIG difference, we appreciate everything you do! Your hard work often happens behind the scenes, but it never goes unnoticed. ๐งผโจ
Thank you for helping make SWMS a great place to learn, work, and grow! We are so lucky to have you on our team! ๐๐คโค๏ธ

Backpacks are to be left in your lockers. Our classrooms are very small and backpacks clutter the aisle. It is a safety thing. Thank you for your cooperation in this matter.
