Students will be taking the Math MAP test this week. Please remind your student to bring his/her fully charged 🔋laptop 💻 to school each day.
7th grade GT students analyzed primary documents and used what they learned in class to make inferences about Cabeza de Vaca’s journey through Texas.
7th grade Students researched the European explorers of Texas and created informative works of art followed by a gallery walk down the seventh grade hall.
We believe in community service and teaching our students to value those who serve and protect. This week the SJMS students wrote letters of appreciation to our local police 👮 and fire station staff🧑🚒. These letters were delivered to the stations this afternoon.
We would like to wish our Tiger 🐅 Grandparents a special day on Sunday 🤍We hope you know how valued you are. Happy Grandparent’s Weekend!
