Important updates for the week of April 1, 2024
Families may now make special placement requests for the next school year. This can be for a specific teacher (please list two), to separate your child from another student, (twins or a student they may have had issues with), or to put your child with another student. These requests are due by May 15th. Any request after May 15 will not be honored. Please email requests to Mr. DiRenzo, the principal at jddirenzo@smcps.org.
The last day to order yearbooks online is April 5, 2024. We will order a few extra, however, those will be sold first come first serve. To guarantee your child will receive one, please order ahead online. Click here to go to order your yearbook today!
Parents or guardians of children receiving special education and related services were mailed the Maryland Special Education Parent Involvement Survey from MSDE during the week of February 12, 2024. Parents are asked to complete the survey and return it in the postage-paid envelope by May 24, 2024. The Survey may also be completed online. Parent feedback will help guide efforts to improve special education and related services in SMCPS. To learn more, please visit https://www.mdparentsurvey.com.
