Welcome
Dear Bullpups and Families,
As we head into the last days of summer, I hope you’re out there enjoying the bounty of the beautiful surroundings in which we are so lucky to live. I also hope though that, like me, you’re also feeling the first tickles of excitement about the upcoming school year. Yes, as great as this summer was, the 2023-2024 school year is going to be just as great. I’m so excited to start my second year at SMS. We started planning for this year long ago and we’re confident that the improvements and additions we’ve implemented are going to make SMS even better than it already was. I’ll be communicating with you more in the coming weeks and months to come, but for now you’ll want to focus on just a few key things:
If you have not yet registered for this school year, please go online and do so immediately https://www.lposd.org/parent-student-patron-resources/enrollment-information . We want to know that you are coming so we can prepare!
Our Open House/Move In Night will be held on August 30th. Please plan to come to the school, pick up your schedule, and move in to your assigned locker. 7th graders should come from 5 p.m. to 6 p.m., and 8th graders should come from 6 p.m. to 7 p.m. Please enter through the front Gym doors.
The first day of school is September 5th! Doors will open at 7:45 a.m., and we’ll kick things off at 8:05 a.m.
Those are the biggies – please reach out if you have any questions.
Now get out there and enjoy the rest of summer!
Sincerely,
Mr. Penrose
Principal
