We're getting ready to dress up next week for our SMS #spiritweek, so we thought this early 90's #ThrowbackThursday image was appropriate! Feel free to tag any SMS alumni you recognize, or maybe a current parish staff member! 😊#StMarys175

Mrs. Wojtaszek's class learned about worry dolls in Math. This is a Guatemalan tradition. Mrs. Leong thought it would be a fun project for them to take on in Makerspace. The idea is to tell the doll your worries before you go to bed, then place the doll under your pillow. When you wake in the morning, your worries have been taken away by the doll!
Our 4th grade LEGO Club students got creative today! They constructed their first names in 2D and 3D, then incorporated them into a LEGO city scape.
We're excited to show how much we love St. Mary School Swormville next week during #SpiritWeek! SMS parents, please see the schedule below for all of our special activities. #SMStheplacetoBEE

Our 4th graders completed an “around the room” activity about prayer this week. They read and reflected on various Scripture passages and saint quotes, and were able to apply these to their own lives. #CatholicEd
Mr. Dolan's 8th grade US History students have been discussing propaganda and made their own posters.
