Dear SMS Families,
We hope you've had a wonderful summer and are enjoying these last few days before we welcome our students back to campus.
This week's newsletter includes much of the same information as last weeks since many families have completed registration over the past week. We also know that back-to-school information is easy to overlook during the busy summer months, so we're sharing these important reminders again to help everyone start the school year successfully.
As we prepare for the first day of school, please remember that attendance and punctuality matter. Establishing strong attendance habits from day one is one of the best ways to set students up for a successful year. We look forward to seeing everyone soon and can't wait to kick off another fantastic year at Sarasota Middle School!
Go Panthers!
Mrs. Nzeza
