Our 8th graders had the opportunity to work through four STEM stations working with a flight simulator, 3d printers, robotic arms, and game programming. The students did extremely well and even got to meet some experts working in those fields currently. If 6th or 7th graders are interested in trying these out, they can attend our STEM Club after school from 3-4pm on Tuesdays!

Wrestling begins on Monday, September 23rd, and we have a fast and furious week ahead of us. Please join our Spartan Wrestling 2024 Remind class to receive all information. You can search for our class or text sjhsw24 to 81010. Check out the wrestling promo our Sparta Today Student Team created:

All clubs run after school from 3-4pm. Rides must be there to pick up students in the front of the building promptly at 4:00. Students must have an After School Waiver filled out before attending any club. Be sure to check the After School Calendar to make sure the club you wish to attend is being offered as some of the clubs have a later start date than others.

Sproul uses two systems to communicate with parents and students: Infinite Campus Portal (IC) and Remind. Please download both apps.

• Infinite Campus - Look up your student's grades, attendance, schedule, fees, etc. Grades are posted in IC every Friday, so you check grades before the weekend. Some teachers use this system to email guardians. Please email ICHelpDesk@wsd3.org to request your parent portal access code.

• Remind - Receive text messages about important events and reminders. Please make sure your email is correct in IC; otherwise, you will not be able to connect with Sproul in Remind.

**Both apps are important so that you can be connected with us and stay in the know.

While we do not want to flood your phone with notifications, the Sproul website is another great resource to use. You can always find us on Facebook & Instagram (@SproulJuniorHigh), use our calendar to see upcoming events, or subscribe to our News Posts section. There is also a page for Technology Information so that you can troubleshoot these apps.
