MISSION STATEMENT
The mission of Seneca Middle School is to develop responsible, competent, and productive lifelong learners by providing challenging and meaningful educational experiences in cooperation with the home, community and business.
AWARDS DAY
Unfortunately, the Coronavirus shutdown prevented us from enjoying our annual Awards Day together, but we certainly haven't forgotten all of the accomplishments of our students this year and would like to celebrate them virtually. Please visit our Awards Day page to see virtual Awards Day ceremonies and view the 8th grade slide show. Details about the grade-level drop-off/pick-up days on May 26-28 may be found on this page as well.
TORNADO RELIEF
While our school building was spared any major damage from the recent EF-3 tornado that ravaged portions of Seneca, we know that a portion of our families were not so lucky. For any of our families who were affected by the tornado and need to seek resources or for anyone who would like to offer their assistance in the recovery efforts please refer to this list of phone numbers as a guide. Clicking on the image of phone numbers will enlarge it for better viewing.
CORONAVIRUS/COVID-19
Please be sure to visit the SDOC website's COVID-19 page regularly to see the latest updates in distance learning instruction as well as meal and Wi-Fi locations. As of April 17, the page also includes an interactive map showing all meal, Wi-Fi, and Wi-Fi bus locations.
On April 14, following Spring Break, a revision of Wi-Fi bus locations and times will go into effect. Please refer to this April 3rd SDOC news release for details. Meal times and locations will resume their schedule on Monday, April 13. Please refer to the April 10 SDOC news release for a complete list of times and locations.
SDOC has made changes to our meal distribution for next week to be more efficient and to limit exposure to the virus. Children will still get 10 meals per week, just in fewer drop-off times. For full details, please reference the March 20 SDOC News Release. This release also lists several additional Wi-Fi spots in the county now available to SDOC students and teachers.

SOLICITATION OF FUNDS
Please be assured that Seneca Middle School is NOT soliciting funds for football uniforms nor would we, during this time of the Coronovirus public health emergency, send anyone to your door to solicit funds for this or any other reason.
EDUCATIONAL ALLIANCE GRANT
SMS was pleased to learn recently that we are the recipient of a 2019 Educational Alliance grant awarded by ExxonMobil through their local partner Bountyland Quickstops. Educational Alliance grants focus on "improvements in math and science from pre-school to higher education" and help further ExxonMobil's belief that it it "fundamentally important to encourage the next generation to pursue studies and careers in these fields." SMS is most grateful for the assistance from both ExxonMobil and Bountyland Quickstops.
