Happy Labor Day Weekend!!!

After 17 days of school, students have settled nicely into our school and classroom routines. Thank you, parents, for dropping off your student(s) before 7:35 am each morning, doors open at 7:10. We have been right at 95% attendance each day. If your son/daughter misses school or is tardy please provide one of your five parent notes or doctors excuse to homeroom teachers or email jennifer.amschler@spencer.kyschools.us. All students completed MAP Testing last week, parents will be receiving a copy of these scores with first-quarter mid-term reports next Thursday, so be on the lookout. Student Leadership Team interviews are coming up and candidates will be announced next week. Good luck girls basketball next week at Hebron MS on Tuesday and at home on Thursday vs St. Domonic. Come out and support Grizzly Football on Tuesday at home against Shelby East MS. Archery tryouts begin Sept. 6 (3-5 pm) at SCMS. Our first house meeting was last Friday, students wore their house colors, new t-shirts are ordered for ALL STUDENTS, we introduced students to house handshakes, chants, and dances, and began brainstorming outreach projects. Our next house meeting will be a Grizzly Growl Competition on Sept. 13.

House Leaders: Jay Armstrong (Onraka), Ashley McGaughey (Sollevare), Geogianne Bradbury (Amistad), Brooke Spatol (Reveur), Kim Burch (Altruismo), Matt Edmondson (Isibindi), Michelle Gross (Nukumori), and Kabrel Woods (Protos).
