Dear Students and Families,

We at SMS would like to honor our veterans in a variety of ways in observance of Veterans Day on November 11th.

In the lobby, we are asking students and staff to write notes of thanks and support to our veterans. If any family has a name or a photograph of veteran it would like to honor, please email the information to Erica Vanderhoof at vanderhoof@swampscott.k12.ma.us or place the name and/or photograph in a box in the lobby.

Additionally, proceeds collected from a Hat Day on Thursday, November 9th where students and staff donate $1 to wear a hat to school, will be sent to a nonprofit that supports veterans and their families.

Thank you for helping SMS to honor our veterans.


My Brother's Table:

This year will be our 6th year collecting money and gift card donations to local grocery stores (Market Basket, Shaw's, and Stop & Shop) to sponsor turkey dinners for local families through My Brother's Table.  We will be collecting items from November 6th-16th.  A donation box for gift cards will be available in the front lobby.  In addition, Grade 8 students will be collecting in the cafeteria at each student lunch from Monday, November 13th until Thursday, November 16th.

The My Brother’s Table staff and guests are always very appreciative of our assistance and involvement at this crucial time of year. For more information about the organization and other ways you can help, please visit their website http://www.mybrotherstable.org/about.shtml.

Thank you in advance!
Mrs. Baer and Mrs. Vanderhoof
