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.

Mrs. Hammond's #Spanish students did a gallery walk last week to read elf biographies. They then had to create their own elf and describe him/her, check out their great work! #middleschool #foreignlanguage #santasElves
Just before #ChristmasBreak, Mr. Ted Luckett did a very special Christmas scavenger hunt with our entire school! Students broke up into their #faithfamilies & searched for clues around the gym, using QR codes to answer questions about Christmas. Activities included singing portions of Christmas songs, naming all #ThreeKings, word searches, & more to uncover the true message of the season- that #Jesus is born for us!
I'm addition to celebrating "Grinch Day" last Thurs., 4th grade enjoyed learning about Colonial Times through collaborative learning centers. They also played Colonial games and "churned" butter!
