Hello, SMS families! I wanted to take a moment to introduce myself to those who I have not yet met personally. I'm Jamie Green and this is my third school year as Communities in Schools Student Support Coordinator at Surgoinsville Middle School. The students all know me as the organizer of all of the fun attendance incentives, the keeper of the snacks and candy, and the person they can come to if they want to celebrate, vent or sometimes even shed a tear. Communities in Schools is a non-profit with a mission to surround students and families with a community of support in order to encourage success at school and in the future. I motivate students to come to school everyday with attendance competitions, pop-up rewards on random days, and simply by being someone who is happy to see them here everyday. I can also provide academic support, help with basic needs, and I'm a cheerleader for every single student on campus. I'm not a counselor or therapist, just a former teacher who always wanted to do MORE for her students and their families...and Communities in Schools is exactly that! It's an honor to call SMS home and I look forward to getting to know each of you more in the future! Flyer information: SURGOINSVILLE MIDDLE SCHOOL WALKING ON AIR TOSCHOOL UP To $100 ONE WINNER! WIN A PAIR OF SHOES! There will be a whole school competition between all students at Surgoinsville Middle School. Students who have perfect attendance for the entire month of September will be entered to win a pair of shoes of their choice. The winner will be chosen on Tuesday, September 30. Good luck, everyone!
