IMPORTANT STATEMENT FROM THE BOARD OF EDUCATION:
The Worcester County Board of Education remains committed to the safety and security of our students and staff. While we have already publicly addressed the recommendations and presentations by our law enforcement officials, we recognize that this continued public debate on school safety is not conducive to restoring the partnership between our entities, and it stands to further incite fear in our students.
To that end, the Board and Superintendent of Schools has extended an open invitation to the Worcester County Sheriff and Chief Deputy to meet with the Superintendent and Chief Safety and Academic Officer to discuss the execution of our Memorandum of Understanding and how we can best move forward for the betterment of our schools.


Reminder to Parents that Parent/Teacher Conferences will be held Tuesday, March 12th, 2024 from 5pm-7pm. Also, take advantage of our No Cook Night at the West OC Chipotle before or after conferences!


SDMS is proud to celebrate the accomplishments of our students in the ESLA’s Young Authors’ Contest! Congratulations Catrina, Ava, Elias, Claire, and Evelyn.
