Grade level field trip permission slips are due tomorrow, Wednesday, 3/11/26. Students will turn in their permission slip (and money for 7th & 8th graders) to their advisory teacher.
From SGHS: Join us for “Shrek the Musical!” at the PAC! Shows are at 7 p.m. March 12-14. Tickets: $10 for adults, $7 for students. See the flyer here: https://bit.ly/4svMVPN
Field trip permission slips went home with all students today. Please make sure to sign and return by 3/11. Students will turn in their permission slips and $ (7th & 8th grade only) to their advisory teacher. This is such a great day each year for our SGMS Family.
We sent home a letter in early February but we are hearing that it may not have made it home to everyone. For any upcoming 6th graders' parents (26-27), please see information about our Parent Night coming up this week.

Three DragonBot Teams Advance to State in the VEX Robotics Competition.
Solar Flare 63670G SGMS
Tess Richardson
Chase Donze
Vivian Mitchell
Laura Ann Woods
Techno Bots 63670A SGE
(First year team)
Owen Rayoum
Ayden Wehner
Oliver Kersting
Big Robofeet 63670F SGMS
Collin Gegg
Micah Kertz
Miles Ditch
Harrison Weibrecht
Advancing to state requires months of engineering design, strategic problem-solving, iterative testing, and strong performance in both robot skills challenges and alliance tournament play. Teams must also document their process in detailed engineering notebooks and demonstrate collaboration and professionalism during judging interviews.
The VEX Robotics Competition challenges students to design, build, and program robots to complete complex game-based tasks alongside other teams. Throughout the season, students develop critical skills in coding, mechanical design, project management, teamwork, communication, and resilience. They learn to analyze data, refine prototypes, and adapt strategies under competitive pressure—mirroring real-world engineering practices.
Earning a place at the State Championship reflects not only technical excellence but also perseverance, innovation, and a commitment to continuous improvement. These teams represent the very best of student-driven achievement and will now compete among the top robotics programs in the state. #sgexcellence

Penguin Warriors scored 10th out of 21 teams and earned the Create Award. The VEX IQ Create Award is given to a team whose robot design shows a creative and original engineering solution to one or more of the competition’s game challenges, emphasizing inventive thinking beyond standard approaches. The Penguin Warriors demonstrated how they worked together to develop their unique design and explained their creative process during judging and in their engineering design book, which they write throughout the year.
