Hello, SFM Families & Guardians, As we approach the final few weeks of the school year, I would like to take a moment to reflect on the tremendous growth and progress that has taken place throughout the year. With the transition to new leadership came several changes and improvements, but what I am most proud of are the meaningful relationships that have been built with our students, families, staff, and community. While there is still important work ahead, my administrative team and I are excited about the future of Sedgefield and the intentional adjustments and enhancements we will continue making over the summer to strengthen our school community. Over the next few weeks, we have several exciting activities planned for our students and families. This week we will host our Band Concert on Thursday at 6:00 p.m. in the GCH Auditorium. On Friday, students will enjoy Field Day activities, including jump castles, face painting, and other fun experiences as we celebrate the close of the school year together. In addition we will host our End-of-Year Awards Ceremonies next week as we recognize and celebrate the hard work, growth, and accomplishments of our students throughout the school year. Please remember that returning student registration is still open. Thank you to all of the families who have already completed the registration process. Your partnership and support are greatly appreciated. The NEW Sedgefield is committed to being intentional, focused, and centered on the success of our teachers, students, parents, and community. Thank you for your continued support and all that you do to help make our school stronger each day. Yours in Education, Dr. C

As the weather gets warmer, we would like to remind families to review the Sedgefield Middle School dress code with their student before coming to school each day. In particular, please ensure that shorts and other clothing items meet school guidelines.

Students are expected to wear solid clothing that fully covers the body from armpit to mid-thigh. Shorts should be an appropriate length and fit within district and school expectations.

We appreciate your support in helping students arrive dressed appropriately and ready to learn each day. The full Berkeley County School District dress code policy can be found in the student handbook. Thank you for your partnership and cooperation!

SFM Parents & Guardians,

I would like to commend you for your role in helping ensure that everyone in attendance was able to fully enjoy the dance performance. Because of your support and cooperation, we were able to truly appreciate the art and expression behind each routine, as well as the dedication and preparation that Ms. Salvage and her dancers put into every movement.

Thank you for your continued support of our students and school community.

Hello SFM Parents and Guardians,

This is your friendly neighborhood principal, Dr. C. We are proud to share that the first day of testing is down, with one more week to go! We had a smooth and successful day today, and we are looking forward to continuing that positive momentum.

Tomorrow, students will be taking the Writing portion of the SC Ready assessment. Please ensure that students arrive on time. This is extremely important, as we want every student to be settled and in the best possible mindset before testing begins. Please note that students who arrive at 8:45 AM or later will not test with their regular homeroom, so punctuality is essential.

As mentioned previously, there is an incentive for students who are present for each day of testing, so attendance is key.

Thank you for your continued cooperation and all that you do to support our students.

Hello, SFM Families & Guardians,

The time has come—everything we have practiced and worked hard to master this year will be demonstrated over the next two weeks.

The first SC READY assessment will be ELA – Reading.

**Testing Day Expectations**

Students are expected to be on their very best behavior throughout the testing window. To ensure a smooth and successful testing environment, please review the following expectations:

* **Timeliness is critical.** All car riders must arrive at school on time. Any student who arrives after **9:00 AM** will be required to make up the test on a different day.
* All electronic devices will be collected by testing administrators at the start of each testing session. This includes, but is not limited to:

* Cell phones
* Ear buds / wireless headphones
* SMART watches
* SMART glasses
* Any device capable of imaging, recording, or messaging
* Students are not permitted to bring blankets to school.
* Students must restart their school-issued computers prior to arriving and bring them fully charged each day.
* Bluetooth headphones are not allowed.

To support student performance, we encourage families to ensure students get a good night’s sleep and eat a healthy breakfast on testing days. Additionally, to help maintain a focused and uninterrupted testing environment, we ask that you make every effort to schedule appointments outside of these testing dates, and please do your best not to collect your student before their test is complete.

We appreciate your partnership in helping our students do their very best. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to reach out.

At the New Sedgefield, we will work together to ensure every student is prepared, confident, and ready to succeed.

Thank you for your continued support.

To better address student safety and improve our morning arrival process, we will now have two car rider lines during morning entry. Our goal is to increase efficiency, ensure students enter the building safely, and help families get back home or to work more quickly.

Thank you for your understanding and for supporting our commitment to continuous improvement!

Hello SFM Parents & Guardians, This is a friendly reminder regarding the updated morning traffic pattern. Please be sure to utilize the two designated drop-off lanes, as this will help us maintain a smooth and efficient process. Additional staff members will be present to assist and ensure everything runs safely. As noted in my previous communication, please do NOT drop students off across the street or in the roadway, as this creates a safety concern for everyone.
