Good, Good Evening Sarah Scott Family,

This is your principal , Scotia Brown, with your Scottie Burst for the week of December 5th.  Can you believe it?  We only have a few weeks left in 2021.  Well, it’s not over yet.  I have quite a few announcements, so here’s what’s going on this week:

Tomorrow is Meaningful Monday.  We will be outside the building, with a cup of hot chocolate for you, as you drop off your Scottie.

It’s County Week and you know what that means, we get to show our school spirit!  Any time we get to show our school spirit…is a good time!

We kick things off on Monday with Pajama Day.  Wear your warm and comfortable pajamas, school appropriate, of course!

Tuesday is Sarah School Spirit Day-We want to see everyone in orange, black and white.

Wednesday is always fun.  It’s Mix/Match Day.  That means that nothing is supposed to match.  How mix/matched can you get?

You’re going to love Thursday.  It’s Comfy, Sweats, and Joggers Day.  We’ll be chillin’ in our comfy sweats.

Friday is a favorite.  It’s Hat Day.  Have fun with that!

Our 6th and 7th grade boys are scheduled to take it to the hoop on Tuesday in a game against Honey Creek Middle School.  Both of these games are scheduled to take place at Honey Creek.

The 8th grade boys and girls will have a game against West Vigo Middle School on Wednesday.  This will be an away game.  These games begin at 5:00.  Guests are asked to mask and respect social distancing.

Our boys’ basketball teams, if victorious on Tuesday, will go for the County Championship title on Thursday.  This game will be played at Terre Haute South High School.  Please note that these games will begin at 6:00.
Family, we know that you take your students’ academic success seriously.  And so, do we. In order to help some of our Scotties, who are not completing their school assignments and as a result are failing their classes, Scotties are encouraged to take advantage of “LIFT Academy” every Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday from 3:15 to 4:30.  Scotties can receive support in ANY of their subjects.  We are excited to provide LIFT Academy to our Scotties.  As we move forward, our plan is to notify you, if your Scottie has multiple missing assignments and make arrangements for your Scottie to remain, at Sarah Scott, for LIFT Academy.  We hope you will support this opportunity for your Scottie!

It’s time for Sarah Scott Christmas Store shopping!  Beginning tonight, at 7:00, every Scottie, who has made Honor Roll and those who have NO discipline referrals, will be the first to shop.  You know all those Scottie Bucks, your teachers have been rewarding you with for getting your work completed, getting to class on time, etc.  Well, now you get to spend them, in the Sarah Scott Christmas store!  Simply, log in to your PBIS app, on your Chromebook or phone.  Santa’s helpers pull your purchases for you to  pick them up the next day.  Check out our Facebook page for the shopping schedule.

Family, please mark your calendar for Monday, December 13th for our next food distribution.  Help us by sharing this information on your social media.  The food distribution will be from 9:00 to 10:00.  Everyone is welcome.  Please help us spread the word!

Family, while you are out, why not check out the Sarah Scott Christmas light display at Deming Park?  Our own, Smo and Mr. Burress, created a phenomenal light display for you to enjoy!  Go check it out and let us know what you think!  You are guaranteed to be impressed!

I know that’s a lot, but there’s a lot of GREAT stuff going on at “Sarah Scott:  Where Hope is Inspired, Talent is Trained and Potential is Developed!”
