🔔YEARBOOK DELIVERY🔔
First, and foremost, thank you for your patience as we have navigated through a transition in our PTO!
If you are a verified purchaser of the 22-23 yearbook and your child is currently attending SME, your child will receive and bring home their yearbooks TODAY!
If your child is now attending VMS and a verified purchaser, yearbooks will be delivered to the middle school today. These should be distributed within the middle school within the next couple of days.
If your child is no longer at our school and you are a verified purchaser, but you are still located in the Valdosta area, you may come to our front office to pick up your yearbook.
If your family has moved out of town, please contact the front office to verify purchase and discuss the best mode of delivery.
Again, we thank you for your patience and understanding through this process!

📄✏️📝Writing till the end!📄✏️📝
These young authors and illustrators from Mrs. Umpleby’s 2nd grade class embarked upon a six-week-long writing task.
After witnessing five tiny caterpillars transform and completing much informational research on butterfly lifecycles, they became inspired to create an individual narrative writing piece about the butterflies they had given special names. Upon completing the writing process, each student published their own piece of writing and illustrations.
Congratulations to these young authors and illustrators on their very first published book!📖
Congratulations to Myles Roberts for winning the Destination Ag art contest! 🎨
Myles and his teacher, Mrs. House received a huge award!!
Way to go!
