Mrs. Whipple's 6th grade Math students did the logical thing last week, and worked together to order rational numbers from least to greatest. It looks like they had some fun in the process too!

#Montessori students had some playtime with a furry friend on Friday! Miss Krista's fast-growing golden retriever puppy was visiting the class and needed a nap after all his fun with our students. #puppylove

Happy New Year! 🎉 We welcomed students back by chalking their classroom doors today. Father Peter blessed the chalk & Mrs. D'Angelo marked the doors with students to honor the #Epiphany, the 12th day of Christmas when the #WiseMen visited Jesus. Feel free to do the same in your home! #HappyNewYear #2025 #20+C+M+B+25
We are excited to be back in the classrooms with students today, but wanted to share one more Christmas 2024 memory with you all...
Before Christmas break our Home School Association (HSA) treated our priests & all school staff to a wonderful Christmas luncheon at Banchetti's. This annual tradition in which staff come together to share a meal with our HSA board members , while new staff members share what they love about SMS, has become a highlight of the season for many of us. Thank you HSA - we are blessed to have an involved, caring parent community at our school, as well as some rock-star teachers & staff, if we do say so ourselves! These are the amazing individuals who are shaping our students into tomorrow's leaders with Catholic values.
Join us at one of our enrollment events this January to see for yourself why we’re more than just a school. Visit www.smstheplacetobee.com today to RSVP for LEAD Night on 1/16, or Open House on 1/26.
