Dear Families of Future Wildcats,

Spring is here and whether you want to admit it or not you will soon have a middle schooler in your household! It is time to start thinking about the transition to middle school. That transition can be just as hard for families as it is for our students.

The teachers and staff at Smithton Middle School are excited to welcome all new Wildcats and help with the transition to middle school. In a typical school year, we would have an open house in the spring to introduce families to our building and share what makes middle school different from elementary school; however, this year we will welcome our students to middle school virtually. On April 26th, all middle schools will be sending out videos providing information for our incoming students.

As we prepare for that video, we need your help. We want to make sure that we answer any questions you might have to help you prepare for the next school year. We ask that you take a minute to fill out the survey below so that we can make sure to address all of your questions.

5th Grade Orientation Survey:

In the fall, we’ll welcome all 6th graders to a jump start day to help your student become familiar with Smithton before the school year officially begins.  In the meantime, you can learn more about our school by visiting our website at www.cpsk12.org/sms

I wish your student a great conclusion to their 5th-grade year and look forward to seeing them this fall in the halls of Smithton Middle School.

Thanks,

Chris Drury
Principal
Smithton Middle School

Smithton Standards of Excellence

As we move into the second semester of the 2018-19 school year, it is important to remind our students of school expectations.  As the school year comes to a close in May, the following standards will be used to identify students who will be able to participate in non-academic “fun” events.  All end of the year events are considered a celebration of the hard work and accomplishments of our students.  The school’s administration and faculty are committed to help and support all students in meeting these expectations.

Attendance: 90% attendance rate (with possible exceptions) using the current semester data.

Discipline: No major office referrals. Chronic buddy and/or recovery room visits may also be considered.

Achievement: No failing grades on the most recent Individual Progress Report (IPR).  There is an opportunity for students to bring their grade to passing prior to predetermined date of an event in order for the student to be eligible for an event.

This information will be shared with students on a regular basis.  Their advisory teacher will be available to respond to student questions and support a student’s progress.

Chris Drury, Principal

Hello Smithton Family,

Since I started here it has felt like home. We have a dedicated staff that comes to school each day to make sure that Smithton is a positive environment where our students feel welcome and can work towards excellence. They have high expectations for all students and are tireless in their efforts to make sure they help our students meet those expectations. They are continually working to improve and push each other to help make Smithton great. Our students work everyday to be their best and constantly impress and inspire me.
