We have another new staff introduction ready!!! We would like to introduce Mr. Cole Thompson! Mr. Thompson will be serving as Assistant Principal for Steelville Elementary and Middle Schools this year!
Mr. Thompson's favorite foods are pizza, Mexican food, fresh seafood, and "the ole classic American cheeseburger and fries"! He enjoys spending time with his family, golf, fishing, and gardening!
When asked what brought him to Steelville, Mr. Thompson said, "I love that Steelville is a district with a great culture and family atmosphere. I'm very impressed by the recent initiatives taken by the district to provide comprehensive resources to students, families, and staff, and I can't wait to be part of the process for these initiatives!"
Please join us in welcoming Mr. Thompson to the Steelville School District!


The final team "holding down the fort" over the summer is our Central Office! Summer is one of the busiest times of the year for the CO staff, and on any given day you will see them with their heads down working on reports or making phone calls, in meetings or at a conference, and generally just keeping things running smoothly and preparing for the new year. There's no such thing as autopilot for a school district, and we are glad to have a capable team to lead the way into the new school year!

Another department that has been hard at work all summer long is Technology! WIth the help of their two summer workers, they've spent the last couple of months cleaning computers, installing new technology, updating old technology, and getting everything ready for the first day of school. Soon, they'll start work on installing a whole bunch of brand new Smartboards in classrooms! We are so happy to have the best tech team around!

Attention SMS Families! Fall practice for Steelville Middle School will begin on Monday, August 19th. SMS Cross Country will practice at Steelville City Park from 6:30 PM to 8:00 PM, Monday through Friday. #GoCardinals!

Our maintenance department, along with their two summer workers, have been busy taking care of lots of projects while school has been out of session! They've knocked holes in two walls and installed new doors, spruced up the music theater sign, replaced some steps on a deck, and completed lots and lots and lots of other projects, and they're not done yet! We are pretty impressed with all the work they've done!


Attention, Cardinals!
Due to parking lot resurfacing, families coming out to get their physicals at Steelville Middle School today need to drive around back of the middle school building by way of the bus barn road and enter the building on the side door by the cafeteria.
There are spots available for walk-ins, so if you didn't get an appointment scheduled but you still need a physical for your Steelville student, they can probably squeeze you in!
Remember, physicals are today, July 31st, at Steelville Middle School, until 5:30 PM.
