Attention 8th Grade Parents and Caregivers who helped their child sell Cookie Dough for the Washington, D.C. Trip: The cookie dough will be delivered to the Middle School on Tuesday, December 9th. Please note that each student will get a box that has their name, the items they bought, and a list of who bought what — all in a very user-friendly way. Their prizes will be delivered then as well.

Our middle and high school students embraced the challenge of creating art to encourage safe choices this holiday season. The initiative, led by SADD and Above the Influence, will culminate in the anti-DWI messages being printed on paper bags and used at Cheap Chollies Wine and Liquor starting December 1st in conjunction with National Impaired Driving Prevention Month. The compelling designs were assessed by a judging panel of community leaders, including representatives from the Erie County Sheriff’s Office and local businesses. The winning entries earned the student artists a variety of local prizes.
Check out the entries here: https://www.springvillegi.org/article/2568089

The first quarter's 8th-grade art students visited the Burchfield Penney Art Center. They took a docent-led tour of the galleries and were guided through an art-making experience that directly related to the artwork that was on exhibit. This trip allowed the students to see art from the past and present up close and provided them with a creative art-making opportunity. The remainder of the 8th-grade student body will be going to the Burchfield Penney Art Center throughout the rest of the school year.

Recently, Mrs. Lewandowski’s 7th-grade ELA students finished reading "A Long Walk to Water." This story is about children who fled their homes without their families during the Sudanese Civil War. These children walked for years to try to find safety from the war, resulting in this group of boys being called "The Lost Boys of Sudan." Some of the boys were relocated to the United States to start their lives here.
Mathon Noi, a “Lost Boy” relocated from South Sudan to Rochester, returned to SMS to share his experiences about his journey with students to help them make connections to the novel. Mathon shared his story and how he is giving back through his non-profit, Building Minds in South Sudan, which builds schools.
This year, he brought another guest, Ted Avgerinos, who has traveled with Mathon to build schools in South Sudan.

Middle school students in Mr. Reese's science class finished their unit on density with a project that was lighter than air! Students made hot air balloons out of tissue paper and then contributed to a massive class balloon. At the end of the week, the balloons were filled with hot air and released into the sky! Most of the balloons were caught by the students, but one got away!

Mrs. Jasinski's Spanish class learned about the Monarch Migration, which coincides with the Day of the Dead in Mexico, and how some believe the butterflies represent the souls of loved ones returning to visit. Students and some staff members created a butterfly in memory of a deceased loved one, pet, or even a celebrity.
