The motto of Sarah Smith Elementary School is "Anchored In Excellence". We are committed to excellence for all students and continue to strive for greater heights. It is important to share with parents the various aspects of our school and its instructional programs. Meetings have been designed to do this. These meetings are referred to as "Anchor Meetings". If you want to know more about the programs and activities offered at Sarah Smith or need more information or clarification on something going on at school, plan to attend. The 2008-2009 Anchor Meeting are scheduled this year in conjunction with the PTA meetings. The combined meetings will save time and provide valuable information from the PTA and the school. Topics may include "gifted program", "school safety", "test scores", "IB", "our writing program", and a variety of curriculum presentations. Check the PTA meeting dates for the Anchor Meeting schedule. For more information, please email the principal or contact the school office. Topics are subject to change.
