At Sherman Elementary, we believe in celebrating determination.
Each week, we recognize students who demonstrate the STRIDE skill of Determination. This simple act of acknowledgment has helped create a strong culture of support, encouragement, and celebration within our school community.
Now, we would love for that same spirit of recognition to extend to our incredible staff members and this is where you can help! As part of our value that “We will recognize and celebrate the individual and collective efforts and achievements of students and staff at Sherman Elementary,” we are creating an opportunity for families to give a staff shout-out throughout the school year.
If a Sherman staff member has shown determination, gone above and beyond, supported your child, or made a positive impact, we invite you to recognize them. Simply click the link below and share how this staff member deserves to be celebrated.

Each week, we will announce staff recognitions alongside our student Determination shout-outs.
Thank you for helping us continue to build a culture where Greatness Begins Here for both our students and our staff!
Thank you,
Shannon Brickler

Today at Kids in Motion, our focus was Nutrition. Our Food Service Director Mrs. Livingood was our guest speaker. She told us about Go Foods (eat anytime), Slow Foods (eat sometimes), and Whoa Foods (eat once in a while). We also talked about Switcheroo - which is swapping out a whoa food for a healthier option! Then students made posters and played a game with their new knowledge! 🥦🍞🍟








Spring field trips are around the corner! 🚌
The NEXT Sherman Background Check Day will be Friday, March 6th from 8:30 AM - 3 PM (flyer attached). You will need a VALID driver's license and $10 (exact cash or check). Parent/Guardians are welcome to reach out to me to schedule an appointment - this allows me to be ready & available. We also accept walk-ins within the scheduled time - wait time is possible.

Today at Kids in Motion, our focus was Physical Health. Mrs. Hamilton told students about the importance of exercise and moving their body every day! Then, students went for a jog around the playground, did some cardio drumming routines, and jumped rope - all activities were heart healthy exercises! ❤️💪🏻
