SMS Parents and Families-
Thank you so much for a wonderful start to the school year. It has been such a pleasure to watch your children adapt to school, have fun and learn so much already. I appreciate all that you have done to make sure that their transition to the school year is smooth. Thank you.
Tuesday 8/27, is both picture day during the school day (your child received the packet to order pictures at school) and Back to School Night from 5:15-6:30 pm. (community resources in the commons from 5:15-5:30 and then follow your students schedule from 5:30-6:30 pm). We would love for you to join us and locker assignments will be given out for 6th-8th graders.
On Monday September 9th we will be performing our reunification drill in collaboration with Salida PD. Details are linked in the letter. Boys and Girls club has agreed to open early that day for our students that utilize that resource.
Salida School District has a new app and it will be important to download the new district app. The old app will no longer be used. The app is the foundation by which communication will be made to district families. It is used to inform families of our drills, any actual emergencies that we work through, snow days, and more. Due to tech updates, the district has moved to this new platform. If you had downloaded the app in past years, you should remove it and utilize the new one. The old app had the Spartan head as its icon. The new app utilizes the school district's "S" logo as its icon. You can click the links below to access the downloads for the new app for Apple and Android…
Download the NEW App. (The old app features the SHS Spartan Logo. The NEW app features the district's "S" logo)
