SMS JMG Students Make Their Mark at Statewide Career Event
Sanford Middle School's 7th Grade Jobs for Maine's Graduates (JMG) students and the SMS Student Leadership Team recently traveled to the University of New England for the annual Middle School Leadership Summit. The event brought together students from across southern Maine to tackle real issues affecting their schools and communities. SMS students had the opportunity to collaborate with their peers, brainstorm creative solutions, share what has and hasn't worked in their own school, and exchange ideas for positive change. The experience didn't end when students returned to Sanford — those who attended will be carrying their new ideas and insights into next year, working to identify what can be implemented right here at home. On May 11th, SMS students did an incredible job representing their school and community with enthusiasm, collaboration, and school pride.

Sanford Middle School marked a major milestone this week with the ribbon cutting of a brand-new outdoor equipment shed, one that students designed and constructed themselves. Members of the school's Mechanical Advantage Club and Environmental Club collaborated throughout the year on the project, handling everything from framing and assembly to finishing the floor just last week. The shed is now fully operational and accessible to the entire student body. The build is the latest in a long tradition of hands-on projects at Sanford Middle School, where students have tackled everything from birdhouses and woodworking to solar-powered cars and underwater remotely operated vehicles. This year's shed represents the club's most ambitious undertaking yet, a permanent structure on school grounds that students can point to with pride for years to come. The shed is stocked with outdoor equipment including cornhole boards, volleyballs, basketballs, Frisbees, soccer balls, and more. Students will have access to the space during a dedicated flex block in their daily schedule, giving them the opportunity to get outside, enjoy some fresh air and sunshine, and build stronger connections with their peers. Staff were introduced to the shed and its checkout procedures this week as well.
