Each student then selected an instrument and gave an in depth presentation to the class to work on public speaking skills. Great job to those who have already presented!

🧼💙 Let’s work together to keep PCS classrooms healthy!

✅ Encourage handwashing and covering coughs/sneezes
✅ Keep your child home if they have a fever, vomiting, or diarrhea
✅ Follow return-to-school guidelines for contagious illnesses like strep, pink eye, or chickenpox

By following these steps, we can limit the spread of germs and keep students learning. For more information, contact your school nurse or visit the CDC’s Infection Prevention Guidance for Schools: https://www.cdc.gov/orr/school-preparedness/infection-prevention/index.html

🎨🎶🎭✨ Help us celebrate National Arts in Education Week | September 14–20, 2025 ✨🎭🎶🎨

In 2010, Congress passed House Resolution 275, designating the week beginning with the second Sunday in September as National Arts in Education Week. During this week, communities across the country come together to advocate, educate, and celebrate the transformative power of the arts in education.

At Surf City Middle School, we’re celebrating the creativity of our talented Sharks! 🦈 This week we’ll be spotlighting Visual Arts, Band, Theater Arts, and General Music.

Today, we’re highlighting our visual art students, who just completed an Identity Project using “Hello My Name Is” tags. Instead of using words, students drew symbols and images to represent who they are. This project was not only a fun introduction to the year, but also an opportunity to explore symbolism in art and learn more about each other. 💡🎨

Stay tuned all week as we showcase the incredible ways our students shine through the arts! 🌟
