- Keep books away from food, drinks, pets & babies
- No writing in books ✍️
- Turn pages carefully

📢 Attendance Matters! 🎓 Every day counts, and being present helps students stay on track for success! 📈 Did you know that missing just two days of school per month can add up to 18 days a year? That's nearly an entire month of learning lost! Let’s work together to ensure every student has the best chance to thrive. 🌟

🎃🖤 Happy Halloween, SHMS Families! 🖤🎃
We're thrilled to announce that our school is participating in the Unwrap the Waves Candy Wrapper Campaign, running through November 11! 🌊🍬 This program lets us help our planet by recycling Halloween candy wrappers instead of letting them go to waste.
After enjoying all those Halloween treats, send your wrappers to school! 🦅💚 Each wrapper collected is a step toward keeping our environment clean and promoting sustainability. Together, we can make this Halloween extra *sweet* for the earth!
