Dear Parents of any SMS Student that played a sport or managed a sport at South Meadow School this year.
On June 14th, starting at 6:00 Sharp, the SMS Athletic Department will be hosting the 2021-2022 All SMS Sports Athletic Awards Ceremony in the South Meadow School Gymnasium.
Parents and their athlete or athletes are invited.
Dress is casual, but nice. Please park in the back of the school and come into to the back of the gym as well. There will be about 336 seats available on a first come first served basis, with overflow chairs available as well. The front doors will be locked. Students and parents can sit where they like.
Coaches will introduce their teams, briefly speak about their season, and present some individual awards.
Our two SMS principals will be awarding the male and female SMS 8th grade athletes of the year, and the 8th grade male and female unsung athletes of the year.
Each athlete will receive a South Meadow School Athletic Certificate. Water and cookies will be at the tables that hold 8 people each.
Please come if you can and you will see a fantastic awards ceremony that not many other schools do. This is the final time that our athletic students will be together this year, so I am hoping for a lot of fun.
