Today is my last day at SMS.

Thank you to all of the students, families & staff members that have made my time here so special!

I'm blessed with so many memories as a student, teacher & admin in this great building.

Today is my last day at SMS, but a Raider I ever SHALL BE!

Since tonight was supposed to be Graduation, I thought it was the right time to share this “Green & Gold of Raiders Bold” message from South’s very own @RobRiggle💪🏻!🎓
Congratulations to the Class of 2020! “Raiders We Ever Shall Be!”

After a long audition process, Junior Trumpet Player Hayden Spratlin was offered a spot in @DCI’s @TheAcademyDBC. This is a huge accomplishment for somebody who is still in high school. Hayden will get to travel all over the US over the summer to compete with other groups.
