Congratulations to these SGCMS band students for being selected to perform at All West Honor Band! These students competed against hundreds of other students and were among the top scoring middle school students of the day! We're so proud of all of our band students who had the courage to audition!
This week’s #GibsonCountyKind theme is all about spreading kindness through the art of listening! 🌟 "Listening is one of the loudest forms of kindness," and it truly shows that we care about what others are thinking and feeling. Remember to use friendly non-verbal cues like eye contact and nodding to let people know you're engaged in the conversation. So, let’s ask ourselves: should kindness always have a reason, or can we give it freely? It’s a lovely reminder to practice kindness by truly listening to one another. 💖👂💡👂.

Over the summer, 6th grader Reagan Kilzer was nominated by Mrs. Elizabeth Kennedy to participate in Vanderbilt’s National Youth Leadership Forum: Pathways to STEM where she spent a week at the university doing hands-on simulations and workshops. Choosing the Medical Pathway Workshop, and going in as a prospective medical intern, Reagan embarked on a fascinating journey into the most complex of machines—the human body. She examined and studied systems within the human anatomy, with a focus on the heart. Reagan said her favorite experience was getting the chance to dissect a cow’s heart! Thank you for representing SGCMS so well, Reagan!
