grading periods

SMS Grading Periods

Scottsburg MS students receive report cards six times throughout the school year. Our first grading period will end on Friday, September 19th, so we are just over halfway through the first grading period.
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.
iPad

Chargers

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.

Scott 2 is fortunate to have the opportunity to offer free breakfast and lunch to all of our students this year.
Check out this link for breakfast and lunch menus.

Please remember that students must have money in their cafeteria account if they want a second tray, extras, or items from the snack line.

Like many schools, we occasionally experience some supply/distribution delays. We will follow the posted menus when possible, but will have to make adjustments at times.
