We are looking forward to our next Student Advisory Committee meeting! Eight SHS students were chosen to be part of the Superintendent's advisory group to help bring fresh ideas and creative solutions to Smithville ISD. They will be meeting monthly and, in addition to helping Mrs. Burns problem-solve and being a voice for their peers, they will be testing new recipes for our Child Nutrition Department! 🤤

Ms. Holmes 1st grade class created patriotic artwork in honor of Constitution Day, and then drafted their own Classroom Constitution for all to sign!
In celebration of Constitution Day, our Juniors and Seniors were each given their own copy of the Constitution and took a deep dive into the meaning of each phrase and how it relates to our lives in 2024. Additionally, students read the Preamble and gave a quick history on the creation and importance of the US Constitution during the morning announcements.
Mrs. Pack's Kindergarten class held a parade to show off crafts they made as they learned about and honored Constitution Day!
Even Seniors are not too old to watch School House Rock! Senior History classes learned about the goals of the Preamble today, and began their dive into the Founding Fathers’ intention with historical documents.
DRILL CONCLUDED: Thanks for your cooperation.
DRILL IN PROGRESS: A lockdown drill is currently in progress at the High School as part of our safety and security training and education. No one will be allowed on or off the campus during the drill. Thank you!
