Stimson Spotlights

Welcome back to another week at Stimson Middle School. We are all still shaking off the chill and warming up after our snow day yesterday. As we settle back into our routine, please remember that tonight is our designated Device Free Family Connect Night. It is a perfect opportunity to unplug and spend some quality time together. To help make the night even more relaxing, our SMS/SW PTA is hosting a no cook fundraiser at Catusco's tonight, so consider grabbing a meal there to support our school community. Looking forward to tomorrow, all students will be participating in iReady testing. Please ensure your student comes to school with a fully charged Chromebook so they are prepared for the day. We look forward to a productive remainder of the week!

Cell Phone Policy Updates

Stimson students may not use their cell phones during the school day. Students MUST secure their phones in their lockers at the start of the school day where it will be stored until dismissal. We will be communicating this to students regularly throughout the month of September. As of October 1st, any student found with their cell phone during the school day will have their phone taken and held until the end of the day where they can pick it up at dismissal. If a student is found to have their phone a second time, their phone will be taken and held until a parent or guardian can pick it up from school. Additional instances will result in detention.
