SMS Scoop

Report cards from the third six weeks will be published in Harmony Family Access on Wednesday, January 22nd. The grades on that report card determine students' eligibility for extracurricular activities.

The grades from our third six weeks will be averaged with course grades from the fourth six weeks to calculate trimester grades at the end of February.

The grade point average of the trimester grades is what we use to determine medal awards at the end of each school year.

Hello! I am Ms. Burow, the new counselor here at SMS. I received my school counseling license in 2006 from IUS. My college degrees include a Bachelors in Psychology and a Masters in School Counseling. I also attended Butler University for Mental Health counseling which is a second job for me.

In my spare time, my favorite activities are playing the piano and keyboard in the church worship band. Other activities include working outdoors in the garden, taking walks and traveling. I love spending time with my children and learning/seeing new things.

I am so grateful for the opportunity to work here at the middle school with the awesome staff and am excited to get to know all the students!

Blessings to all in this new year of 2025!!
