Welcome To Stevenson Middle School

Welcome to Week 2 of our school year! We are excited to see students settling into routines and continuing to show great behavior in our classrooms and hallways. Great Start Saints!

Here’s your weekend recap:

• Michigan Wolverines opened their season with a 34–17 win over New Mexico.

• Michigan State Spartans also came out strong, defeating Western Michigan 23–6.

• The Detroit Tigers had a solid weekend, highlighted by a 5–0 shutout win over the Royals.

This week at SMS, our focus is on hallway behavior—making sure students are moving with purpose and getting to class on time. In addition, a reminder that our cell phone policy will officially go into effect on Tuesday. This Thursday we will have our first class meeting in the cafeteria. Oh and Friday is Rock your Crocks Day! So get ready to rock you Crocks into the weekend!

Keep it real. Keep it awesome. Keep it real awesome!

Best

-Mr. James

January is National Thank You Month—a time to reflect on those who’ve made an impact in our lives and express gratitude.

We are so thankful for your dedication to our students and community. Your efforts inspire learning, growth, and compassion every day.

Kick off January by getting up to date on our Did You Know video series produced by Wayne-Westland Community Schools that follows Interim Superintendent Catherine Cost, Ed.D. as she visits schools, departments and programs across the district. Along the way, we highlight the dedicated staff, departments, and programs that show how, in Wayne-Westland, Great Futures Start Right Here.
