Learning VCarve laser cutting software was the focus of a recent tech class in Matthew Lugo’s room.
As eighth graders, this was not their first experience using this software, but it was their first time creating something that could be displayed upright with the use of a stand, which they also created. In earlier grades, the students had used the software to make more basic objects.

Sixth-grade students at Somers Middle School completed a unit about major body parts in a recent Spanish class by creating chalk monsters.
“The objective was to stay in their target language the whole time,” Mr. Drebycz said. “They had to be as specific as possible so they could give directions for an entire monster.”

Motivated students plus hard work equals a winning equation when it comes to the Math Olympiad.
“The tests are designed to get progressively harder,” said SMS student Leo. “At the end of the year, we add up our scores and we can earn awards and recognition for how we did.”

We hope you are taking some time to recharge this summer and are looking forward to a great new year. We are excited to reconnect with the children and see their smiling faces! Information for the new year will be updated during the summer.
Welcome
Welcome to Somers Middle School, a place of great transitions! An accredited Middle Years School, SMS nurtures life-long learning and global citizenship with a focus on reflection, open-mindedness, and inquiry. We support the development of the whole child with an emphasis on respect of self and others, learning responsibility for one’s actions, and developing acceptance and appreciation for the differences of others. I am proud of the SMS tradition of helping middle school students navigate the challenges of adolescence by focusing on strong academics while providing a supportive environment.
