SIS News and Celebrations

Great Job to all our students for bringing can good and boxed items for our food drive. We collected 6 barrels (55 Gallon) of food for Kathy's Closet. Great job on teamwork for the month of November!

Fantastic tickets are given throughout the week when students are going above and beyond at SIS! All tickets are entered into a drawing for weekly winners. Each student, who receives a fantastic coupon, gets a Jacket Buck for the Jacket Store. The winners receive an additional Jacket Buck! Great job Grayson, Marilyn, and Landin! Keep up the great work!

Students at Sheridan Intermediate School spent the week in P.E. class learning to cast. A classroom set of fishing rods and reels were provided by a grant through the Arkansas Game and Fish Commission. Fishing in the Natural State is a kid friendly curriculum that teaches basic fishing knowledge.

• Please do not allow your students to exit your vehicle in the morning drop off-line until you reach the sidewalk. For safety purposes, we want to be able to see all students as they exit cars.
• Please make sure water bottle have a secure lid, and they only have water in them.
• Please do not block the gate entry as you come into the car rider line. Please move to the far left and fill up all rows.
• Please pull all the way forward in the morning and afternoon car line. This allows more cars in the parking lot and less traffic on the street.
