Dear Parents and Guardians,

We want to emphasize the importance of kindness and respect at South Tahoe Middle School. Please take the time to talk with your child about the impact of their words and actions on others.

Please be assured that we take reports of bullying seriously. When incidents are reported, we investigate thoroughly and assign appropriate consequences.

Thank you for your partnership in creating a positive and supportive school environment.

kindness is contagious!

P.R.I.D.E. stands for Positive, Respectful, Integrity, Determined and Engaged. These students (and many others) demonstrated one or more of these traits at STMS! They each received a small gift card for winning the raffle. Great job doing things "The Timberwolf Way"!

Hello South Tahoe Middle School Families,

We’re so excited that winter is here and the snow is falling! We’d like to offer our community a chance to bring a little extra support and adventure into our children's lives—at no cost to families. With the challenges many of our kids are facing, they are eager for fresh air and new ways to build resilience and confidence.

The Courage Project, a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization founded by a child psychologist, offers free alpine and nordic skiing, snowboarding, snowshoeing adventures, and mindfulness activities for kids ages 8-14. Our activities are carefully designed to help children increase emotional intelligence, build confidence, and develop coping strategies for challenges like fear of failure, perfectionism, anxiety, and more.
