To: All SCMS Stakeholders
We are now living The Leader in Me’s, 7 Habits of Highly Effective Teens. To practice what we teach, my weekly correspondence follows the 7 Habits theme: Habit 1 – Students can BE PROACTIVE by turning in all assignments. 2nd quarter report cards were sent home January 11. Mid-term reports will come home on Feb. 12. A very useful tool for parents is the Infinite Campus App; where you can check grades and receive push notifications daily. Habit 2 – Congratulations to our current A.R. leaders who BEGAN WITH THE END IN MIND: 5th – Erika Montgomery, 4th – Emily McGill, 3rd – Cameron Emmons, 2nd – Dawson Sheble, 1st – Abby Watts. Habit 3 – SCMS is PUTTING FIRST THINGS FIRST by recognizing the following students as this weeks “Grizzly Heroes”: Stephen Dodson, Cody Rountree, Maisah Johnson, Sloan Smith, & Brooklyn Spears. Habit 4 – Our Lunchroom Leaders have been THINKING WIN-WIN all semester, assisting in many ways. Last Friday we showed our appreciation for this group of student volunteers with a Pizza Party sponsored by the SCMS PTSO. Great work students!!! Habit 5 – Spencer Middle will SEEK FIRST TO UNDERSTAND, THEN TO BE UNDERSTOOD as we begin our Grizzly “Paws” Mentoring Program. This initiative’s goal is to provide individualized guidance for all students success at SCMS; targeting the “whole child” - socially, emotionally, & intellectually. Habit 6 – Thanks to all our sponsors and community members who SYNERGIZED at our Second Annual Winterfest! The great night of fun brought in $13,000; all proceeds going to student classroom technology. We now have over 200 Chromebooks utilized by students daily and have added over 300 computers total in 18 months. Habit 7 – All students are invited to come out and SHARPEN THE SAW this Friday at the school dance sponsored by SCMS boys’ soccer. Dance begins immediately following school and parents can pick students up at 5pm. Respectfully, Matt Mercer Principal SCMS
