📚✨ At SHMS, learning is always on and cell phones are always off! 📵
Research shows that keeping phones off and in lockers helps students stay focused and even supports higher GPAs. ✅
📱 Students can use phones before school and after dismissal, but during the day, they stay off and in lockers.
👨👩👧👦 Families, we encourage you to review these expectations with your students. Check out the full student handbook here:

This week we celebrate the power of the ARTS in shaping our students’ creativity, confidence, and community! From music to visual art to performance, the arts are where imagination meets expression. ✨
At Snow Hill, we are especially thankful for our extraordinary Fine Arts team:
🎨 Mrs. Heather Shockley – our esteemed art teacher, inspiring masterpieces big and small.
🎺 Mr. Rodney Lee – our beloved band teacher, turning notes into lifelong passion.
🎶 Mrs. Christina Bradford – our radiant chorus teacher, filling our halls with harmony and heart.
And we also want to recognize ALL of our amazing teachers who bring the arts into their classrooms every day—whether through creative projects, performances, or simply encouraging students to express themselves. 💡🎉
The arts aren’t “extra”—they’re essential. They help students explore new ideas, connect with one another, and discover their voices. Join us in celebrating every educator who makes the arts a living, breathing part of Snow Hill! 💖

#NeverForget #SHMS
Energy drinks might seem like a quick boost, but for adolescents, they can actually hurt learning! High caffeine and sugar can cause:
😴 Sleep problems → harder to focus in class
😡 Mood swings → more distractions
🤯 Anxiety & jitters → harder to retain information
💓 Heart palpitations
➡️Among many more long term effects...as you can see in the graphic.😬
Make good choices for yourself and your learning! Stick to water, milk, or 100% juice for safe, steady energy 💧🥛🍊
