If your child did not turn in the school-issued iPad charger in May, he/she did not receive a charger on August 6th. If you would like to purchase a replacement charger, a used one costs $10 and a new one costs $24.

Chargers can be purchased in the SMS office.

Scottsburg MS students receive report cards six times throughout the school year. Our first grading period will end on Friday, September 19th.

The grades on that report card, which will be created and published on Wednesday, September 24th, determine students' eligibility for extracurricular activities until the next report card is issued in mid-November.

The grades from our first six weeks will be averaged with course grades from the second six weeks to calculate trimester grades.

The grade point average of the trimester grades is what we use to determine medal awards at the end of each school year.

Students in Mr. Heacock's 7th grade art classes have been working on origami projects for the last few days. The students enjoy learning how to fold colored/patterned paper in a variety of ways to make the desired creature or shape.

School pictures at SMS are scheduled for Thursday, August 21st.

If you would like to order pictures, please visit inter-state.com and enter our code (0088YGA) or have your child pick up a paper order form in the office.

Retake day is September 25th.
