Mrs. Fischer is planning an Art Enrichment field trip to *JMKAC
on Thursday, April 28*. It is optional for interested art students. The
first 50 students from 7th and 8th grade may attend. We will leave
around 9:10 and be back around 11:45. If 7th graders are in band, they
cannot go, as they will be gone at a festival already that day. Also, 8th
graders in 3rd and 4th hour science cannot go, as they will be presenting
Cell City projects that morning.
See Mrs. Fischer for any questions!
These students have turned in permission slips and are going: Avery O,
Tayler O, Clara S, Jacon T, Ashley S, Elliot G, Beth S, Krista O, Abigail K
At the recent State FBLA tournament, Paige S., Aubrey S., and Hope M. took
third speaking about an issue in society, Paige and Aubrey placed in the
proofreading and editing test, Olivia B. placed in the internet safety
test, and Andrew K. placed in the Business Math test. Congrats to all that
went.
*Silverware:* Spring cleaning or cleaning out someone’s house? Have old or
mismatched forks and spoons? Send them to school! We prefer to use the
“real stuff” instead of plastic for a better dining experience. We also
feel this will save the landfills from all the plastic, this in part of an
Earth Day recycling event. You can drop in the office of any of our
schools. Thank you!
April 11-15 is National Library Week. Help us celebrate by entering our
contest. All you have to do is guess how many items the library has in its
collection. The contest ends at noon on Friday, April 15. The individuals
with the closest guess will win a Barnes and Noble gift card. While you
are in the library, don’t forget to check out a book or two. (The contest
is open to both students and staff.)
*ACTION ROOM HAPPENINGS!*
*ECO NATURE CLUB! *Join the club created by kids like you who have a
passion for nature and an interest in learning how to take care of our
environment. The club is open to all students in grades five through
eight. We will brainstorm and research topics to determine what our
projects this year will be. Some of the things we will explore include
vermiposting (WORMS!), gardening, animal studies and continuing to build
our greenhouse out of recyclable materials. If you’d like to join this
student directed club, complete and return the participation slip to Mrs.
Fiorini! Meetings will be held during recess periods and during
after-school hours, with the details of those meetings always shared in
advance through school announcements. As some meetings are held after
school, a permission slip is required. Pick one up from the ACTION Room
bulletin board or see Mrs. Fiorini with questions.
*St. Jude Math-a-thon*: Over the past twelve years, SFMS raised over
$33,620.00 for children at St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital!! It is
time to kick off this fundraiser once again! Between now and April 27th,
students will have the opportunity to participate in the 2016 SFMS St. Jude
Math-a-thon. Sign up, collect sponsors, solve cool math problems, and earn
prizes*…but most importantly*, help the children and families at St. Jude
Children’s Research Hospital. In addition, one participating student from
each grade level will be randomly selected to receive a pair of Marc Cinema
movie passes AND the math class *with the highest number of contributing
participants* will earn a class popcorn party!!! Students will also be
eligible to receive prizes from the St. Jude organizers.* Funbooks will be
distributed via math teachers this week to all those who signed up to
participate. If you missed the sign up, but are interested in
participating, stop in to see Mrs. Fiorini! * *Together we can make a
difference!!! *

SFMS will be celebrating Earth Day, April 22, with a waste free lunch. As
a middle school our goal will be to help reduce the amount of trash that
goes into the landfill, and even work on reducing the amount of food that
goes in the trash as well. This will be an entire school effort from the
kitchen staff right to our students that we hope to continue after Earth
Day. Menu for that day is Corn Dogs, not preboated (count out 6), mashed
potatoes, gravy and carrots/ dip, watermelon/ mango and Dirt cake. There
will not be extra containers to put ketchup and dip in. Just place the
condiments on your tray with the food you’re using it on. Below are a few
ideas to help you pack your own waste free lunch.
*A Waste-Free Lunch*
*(REUSABLE)*
· sandwiches and other main dishes, fresh fruit, fresh vegetables, and
treats in a reusable lunch container
· cloth napkins
· stainless-steel forks and spoons
· reusable drink containers
· reusable lunchboxes
*Ever wonder what you’d look like if you tried to tie-dye your body? *Join
the fun on May 14th for the inaugural Flying Falcons 5K Color Run/Walk
being held on the Sheboygan Falls Elementary School campus. The event will
also have a 2 mile option. Compete for a time or just do it to get doused
in color but it is a guaranteed fun time! Early bird entries are due by April
15th. Registration forms can be picked up in the office of any school
building. If you have questions please contact Roberta Lentz at
[email protected] or Matt Pfister at
[email protected].
If you still want to order a yearbook, you may do that but you can only buy
the yearbook for $27. You *can not* add any icons or personalization
because those orders needed to be in at the end of February. If you have
any questions, contact Miss Zimmer at [email protected]
