Wear Blue on Tuesday!
Students joined in on this cold winter morning with the Middle School's High Five Friday welcome crew! Here’s today’s students that joined Ms. Camella and Mrs. Richards along with the other 7/8 teachers. Let's heat things up with some learning in the classroom!!!!
When the weather keeps us from being together in the building, our middle school students stay connected through remote learning days! These days allow learning to continue while keeping everyone safe. Students follow a set of expectations, check in with their teachers, and engage in meaningful lessons and activities from home. We’re proud of our students, staff, and families for their flexibility and teamwork as we make learning happen. Pictured are some of the Google Meet classes our students and staff participated in today and an example of how our teachers account for student work completion.
What a wonderful day we had at the middle school yesterday (1/22/26). The students from Mrs. Mozina's and Mrs. Camella's Families earned the most Trojan Bucks for the 2nd nine-weeks and were treated to a hot cocoa bar. Then we celebrated students who made the Honor Roll, won the spelling bee and participated in winter sports at our Pep Rally. In the evening, the 8th grade girls were recognized at their final home basketball game.
We have the BEST parents: The car rider drop off staff would like to send a big thank you to Samantha Parlett for the hot chocolate delivery today! It hit the spot on this very cold morning.
So proud of our top spellers today! We had over 60 students total in both Bee's compete for the top spot. Pictured are: 4/5 Bee: 1st Place Nolan M, 2nd Place Ava W., 3rd Place Huxley S.
6/7/8 Bee: 1st Place Hadleigh A., 2nd Place Chuy L., 3rd Place Kasha S.

This weekend SCMS hosted our annual junior high wrestling tournament. We have 4 wrestlers and everyone placed. Carson Honeycutt took 1st with 5 pins. Evan Gillum took 2nd with 4 pins. Sylas Spangler took 2nd with 2 pins. Alex Moffit took 3rd with 3 pins.
Sixth grade held a third “Show and Tell” in Mrs. Bute’s classroom on Friday. The students brought in an array of items to share and stories to tell. We had a great time celebrating each other! Mrs. Bute is so proud of her students for the confidence they all displayed while sharing their stories!
Fridays at the Middle School are all about showing our school spirit and starting the day on a high note! Each Friday morning, PLT members are empowered as they pass out Trojan Bucks to students right when they walk through the doors who are showing their school spirit.
Our teachers bring the energy by pumping up the kids with music, smiles, and plenty of high fives, making sure every student feels welcomed, encouraged, and ready to learn. It’s an awesome way to kick off the day and celebrate the positive culture we’re building together.
Nothing beats the excitement, smiles, and school pride that fill our halls on Fridays! #FridaySpirit #TrojanPride #PositiveSchoolCulture

Our staff really get into the Holiday's!
Yesterday our Middle School Students visited into a special place filled with holiday cheer, kindness, and giving. Winter Wonderland was a place where their hard work, positive choices, and Trojan pride earned them something meaningful.
They used their Trojan Bucks to choose a gift for either themselves or someone special in their life. Each gift represented effort, responsibility, and the good choices that they made throughout the second quarter. A HUGE shout-out to The First Responder Children’s Foundation, the CSX Toy Express Program, and our local business partners whose donations help bring holiday joy to our students.

"A Christmas Carol"- Jacob Marley's Chain- From 8th Grade ELA
In "A Christmas Carol" the ghost of Jacob Marley appears to Scrooge weighed down by heavy, rusted chains. They wrap around him and drag along the ground. Each link represents a time when Marley chose to be unkind or greedy; making up the long chain of choices from his life.
For our chain each link represents a student. Written on the links are three things that weigh them down in their life based on choices they have made. Together we can reflect on the changes we need to make to make our lives the best they can be within our own control.

Today our students in grades 5–12 had the opportunity to explore their futures, spark new interests, and connect with incredible professionals from across our community!
From hands-on demonstrations to inspiring stories, our presenters opened our students’ eyes to the many paths they can take: college, trades, military, entrepreneurship, and so much more. It was amazing to see our students asking thoughtful questions, trying new activities, and imagining themselves in careers they may not have known existed just yesterday.
A huge THANK YOU to all of our volunteers and community partners who took time out of their day to pour into our kids. Your passion and dedication make a lasting impact.
And of course, shout-out to our students for being curious, respectful, and eager to learn. Your futures are bright!

Proud doesn’t even begin to describe how we feel today! Our 6th graders completed the DARE program and showed outstanding commitment to making safe, responsible choices. They learned valuable skills they’ll carry with them for years to come—confidence, decision-making, and leading with integrity.
A huge thank-you to our DARE officer, Deputy Lance Seaman, our 6th grade teachers, and our families for all your support throughout the program.
Enjoy the photos from this special day! We’re so proud of our students and their hard work

In seventh grade ELA, students were working in teams competing again each other to find evidence in our novel to prove or disprove statements. Once student found evidence, they had to write an explanation and race to grab the next statement. Students were highly engaged, and they were collaborating with their teammates!
✨💰 6th Grade Class Bank Update! 💰✨

Mrs. Mozina’s 8th Grade Science classes have been learning about the Earth Layers. Students recently had to create a model of the 6 Earth Layers they learned about, and research facts about those 6 layers. Students were given the chance to choose how they completed this project within certain guidelines. Some chose to use their artistic abilities to paint a picture of the layers, make a play dough model, or use food to model the layers. Some chose to create a poster while others used their digital talents to create a model and slide presentation. Here are some of their amazing projects!! I’m so proud of them all!!
Our Academic Board has been updated!
Congratulations to all the Middle School Students who scored Advanced, showed the Most Growth, and/or had Perfect Scores on the state tests last year!

Our 8th graders had an awesome time at EHOVE Career Center!
They kicked things off with a Breakout Box Challenge, teaming up to solve career-themed puzzles, riddles, and word searches that tested their problem-solving and teamwork skills — all while exploring careers in Auto Technology, Health Careers, IT, and more! 🔐💡
Then, students got a first-hand look at the action during campus tours, visiting EHOVE labs and watching students at work in programs like Welding, Culinary, and other hands-on career paths. 🔧🍳✨
It was an exciting day of learning, exploring, and dreaming big about the future! 💪🎓 #CareerExploration #FutureReady #EHOVEExperience

Firelands Conference Champions! 🏆
History was made today as our Middle School Boys Cross Country Team brought home the Firelands Conference Title!
These athletes have poured their hearts into this season. Hard work, grit, and strategic race planning all led to this unforgettable moment. Today, every single runner rose above expectations, pushing past comfort zones and running not just for themselves, but for each other.
This victory is even more meaningful considering Cross Country hasn't been part of our district for 32 years. But now, SC Cross Country is back, and better than ever.
Congratulations to our boys on this massive achievement. The comeback story has only just begun!
