Monday Night Call Week of 9-6-22

Good Evening Sierra Madre Parents & Students, this is Mr. Newsom with some important information about the upcoming week at our middle school.

Excessive Heat Guidelines
The National Weather Service has issued continued Excessive Heat Watches and Excessive Heat Warnings for our region.  In response to this week's excessive heat, SMMS will continue to implement the guidelines provided by our District.

School Site Council Parent Representatives
Currently our School Site Council has two open seats for parent members, and we will soon be holding elections.  If you are interested in serving our school in this capacity, please contact Mr. Newsom at newsom.garrett@pusd.us.

Our School Site Council is a school governance body that strives to improve student achievement through the development, review and approval of the School Plan for Student Achievement, oversight of funding for specially funded accounts, dissemination of information about school events, and planning of current and future programs. School Site Council membership consists of 50% School Staff and 50% parents/community members.  Members serve a two year term, and elections are held each Fall for any vacant seats.

At the end of this month, our Annual Fund Committee will be launching its yearly Annual Fund Fall Campaign.  If you have a business or know of a business that would be interested in contributing to our campaign, please contact our Community Assistant Maria Medina at medina.maria@pusd.us
