Announcements

  • The McKinney-Vento Homeless Act guarantees a free and appropriate public education for all homeless children and youth.  Federal and state laws make the school district’s responsibility clear.

    • A student whose family becomes homeless may remain in the school he/she was attending prior to becoming homeless for the duration of the school year.

    • If it is feasible, a student may transfer to a school if it is closer to his/her transitional housing.

    • The receiving school may not prevent or delay the enrollment of a homeless child by requiring proof of residency or lack of documentation such as immunization records.  

    • Transportation for homeless must begin within 5 school days, but sooner if possible.

  • Safe2Say
    The Office of the Attorney General has implemented a statewide anonymous tip reporting system. It is known as Safe2Say. 
    Please see the attached information. 
    Dr. Murphy-Kahn and Mr. Renn will be meeting with students to review a slideshow that discusses the system and why it is in place.
    Visit the Safe2Say website for more information: https://www.safe2saypa.org/

  • Student Drop-Off & Pickup at SMS
    Parents & Guardians of Shikellamy Middle School Students,

    Please adhere to the drop off procedures when bringing your student to school in the morning.  For safety reasons, vehicles should stay in the drop off lane and not drop students off in the parking lot to avoid waiting in line.  Students should get out of the vehicle when a sidewalk is available and walk to the front entrance to speed up the process.

    Alternatively, vehicles may drop students above the school on Prince St. and have them use the ramp and sidewalk to proceed to the front entrance.

    Thank you for your cooperation with these procedures.  This will help to make sure all students arrive to school safely and on-time.

    Students should be writing assignments in the assignment book they received in homeroom on the first day of school.
