Grade 2 led us in the liturgy at school Mass today. Father Tom spoke in his homily about how events like the eclipse, an earthquake, or people's actions either show the order of God's plan for the universe and our lives, or the chaos that exists without His presence.









Congratulations to our SMS students who received a virtue award for the month of March today! Students were recognized for displaying the virtue of meekness. “Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth” (Matthew 5:5)









Before Easter Recess, SMS 4th and 5th graders took a field trip to the Herschell Carousel Factory Museum in North Tonawanda. Students were able to see a historical side of STEM while at the museum, learning about everything from a band organ’s use of binary coding, to the network of simple machines that make up a 1916 carousel!
