Your teachers and administrators are looking for your help!

There is a book drive being held this month by TZHS students who are collecting throughout the district to promote children’s literacy. They invite you all to bring in gently used books that will be donated to the People to People food bank in Nanuet! Books can be dropped off in the Blue Mailbox in the SOMS Lobby as you come into school in the morning.

It is that time of year again! SOMS is looking for a talented 6th or 7th grade student to design the cover of next year’s Agenda Book! We are inviting students to be creative and illustrate the theme of friendship (be kind). This theme was selected by our Student Council members. All entries need to be submitted to the main office by Friday, February 17. Have a great experience illustrating this theme!

Any SOMS student who has participated in or is currently participating in a high school sport can have their picture in a special section of the yearbook. Please see Mr. Goldstein during homeroom over the next two weeks to have your picture taken.
