For some of our students, the only books they can enjoy are the ones they find at school. Imagine not having a single book to call your own at home — no stories to curl up with at bedtime, no pages to turn on a rainy afternoon, no adventures waiting just for you.
With Scholastic’s Share the Fair, you can change that. Your donation will go directly toward giving our students in need the chance to choose their own books at the fair — books they can keep, love, and treasure for years to come.
📅 Save the Dates!
Our Fall Book Fair will run September 15–19
Every dollar brings a story into a student's hands. ❤️

🌞 Hey SHMS Eagles — we hope you’re having an awesome summer! 🦅
We’ve been busy getting ready for an exciting new school year… and we can’t wait to see you back in September! While you’re out enjoying the sunshine, we wanted to remind you of one thing that makes SHMS special — kindness 🫶.
✅ Help a neighbor
✅ Leave a kind note for someone
✅ Create a playlist that makes you feel unstoppable
✅ Brighten someone’s day with a compliment
✅ Take care of our parks and community spaces
✅ Do something that makes you feel good
Let’s show everyone what SHMS is about — every strength, every need, every student… with KINDNESS at the core. ☺️
💡 And this is just the beginning… when we’re back together this September, we’ll kick off something BIG — a student-led Kindness Pledge to launch our year and work toward becoming the first Certified Kindness School on the Lower Eastern Shore of Maryland 📝
Kindness isn’t just a goal at SHMS — it’s who we are. Let’s make history, let’s make kindness the norm.
Enjoy the rest of your summer, Eagles… we’ll see you soon! 🦅✨

🌞🌿 SHMS Summer Academy Adventure! 🚣♂️🐢🎣
Today, our students had an unforgettable day at Pocomoke River State Park: Shad Landing as part of our "Life on the Eastern Shore" learning series! They paddled through a water safety canoeing station, hiked the scenic trails of Pocomoke State Forest, explored local wildlife at the Nature Center, tried their hand at the pond fishing, and wrapped it all up with a Community Circle and movement activity at the pavilion.
Huge thanks to Ranger Heim, our dedicated teachers, and support staff for bringing the curriculum to life in such a hands-on, meaningful way! 🌞🌾💙
