🔨 Students are building the solution—literally!

When 7th graders came back from the Ecology School with ideas for better outdoor activities, teachers turned those ideas into action with student help!

Environmental Club and Mechanical Advantage Club members are constructing a storage shed that will house volleyball equipment, giant games, and activity totes for the whole school to enjoy during FLEX time.

From cutting lumber to installing siding, students are gaining real construction skills while creating something that will benefit Sanford Middle School for years to come. Read more about it here: https://www.sanford.org/article/2605425

As students return to school following the holiday break, winter conditions make bus stop safety more important than ever. With darker mornings and potentially icy roads, now is the perfect time to review essential safety practices with your children.

School bus safety is one of our district's highest priorities. By working together, we can keep our students safe!

We're so proud of our Sanford Middle School and Sanford High School JMG students who volunteered with Toys for Tots!

On December 11th, our 7th graders teamed up with high school students to load in, count, and sort thousands of toys, getting everything organized for distribution.

On December 12th, our 8th graders helped families shop for toys, making the experience welcoming and special for everyone involved.

This annual volunteer effort is always a wonderful opportunity for our students to serve their community and gain perspective on the needs of their neighbors during the holiday season. Thank you to all our JMG students for your hard work.
