SES Families,
Just a reminder about our "Future Me" dress up day scheduled for Friday, May 8th.
Throughout the last few weeks of school, SES students will have the opportunity to consider their "Future Me" through career discussions in their classrooms. To celebrate these discussions, we will have a "Future Me" dress up day. See the attached flyer for details.

Dear 5th Grade Families,
We are excited to celebrate our 5th grade students as they reach this important milestone!
We do need to share a small schedule change. Our 5th Grade Completion Ceremony was originally scheduled for 9:30 AM; however, due to a conflict with the junior high completion ceremony on the same day, we have adjusted our time to allow families with students at both campuses the opportunity to attend both events.
New Ceremony Time: 10:00 AM
We appreciate your understanding and flexibility, and we look forward to celebrating our amazing students with you!
If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out.
Ms. Brockman

🎲✨ What a wonderful way to wrap up the 5th Graders year at Smithville Elementary!
Our 5th Grade Parent Involvement Event brought families together for a fun-filled Board Game Family Day, and it was truly a success! Parents and students had the chance to sit side-by-side, laugh, compete, and most importantly...connect.
Through games, our students showed off so much more than just their competitive spirit. We saw critical thinking, teamwork, leadership, problem-solving, and great sportsmanship in action. It was amazing to watch students guide their parents through strategies, explain rules, and demonstrate the skills they’ve been building all year.
This event was a perfect reminder that learning doesn’t just happen in textbooks...it happens through experiences, conversations, and quality time together. Thank you to all the families who joined us and helped make this day so special! ❤️
