We’re so happy to welcome Ms. Underwood back to SHMS as our Life Skills teacher! 💙 She’s all about helping students connect, grow, and find their place in both our school and the community. When she’s not teaching, she’s spending time with family and friends—or fiddling around (literally)! 🎻
We’re lucky to have her heart, humor, and passion back in the building!

Alright y’all—this is it! 🐻
Our last school tour of the summer is TOMORROW, Saturday, July 26 from 4–6 p.m.
If you haven’t made it to one yet, don’t miss this one. You’ll get to check out the building, meet Mr. Hudgeons, ask questions, and hear a little about what’s coming up. It’s super laid-back—come and go as you need.
Perfect chance to ease those first-day nerves and get your kid (and yourself) feeling ready.
📍SHMS | Sat, July 26 | 4–6 p.m.
Let’s do this! 💙

🍿 Flashback Files: Poppin' into Summer! ☀️
Summer may be winding down, but we’re still smiling about how sweet it started—thanks to Double Good Popcorn! 💛 They sponsored our school and treated our teachers to some seriously delicious popcorn to kick off summer break.
It was the perfect way to pop into summer and celebrate a year of hard work. We’re so grateful for the love and support from our community! 🐾🎉 #FlashbackFiles #DoubleGoodPopcorn #SHMS #BearNation #TeacherAppreciation #PoppinIntoSummer

Let’s give a warm SHMS welcome to Mr. McInerney, our new choir director! 🎶 He’s pumped to be part of a team that puts students first—and he’s ready to bring the music all year long. Outside the choir room, he’s a gamer, a D&D fan, and apparently not afraid of a serious crawfish boil. 🦞🎮
We’re so excited to have him join the Bear family! 💙🐻

📂 Flashback Files: A Night to Remember 💙🎓
Last spring, we hosted our 1st Annual AVID Scholarship Banquet—a special evening full of purpose, pride, and heart. We were honored to rename the scholarship the Bobby Agee AVID Scholarship, in memory of a lifelong educator and community champion—and the father of our incredible AVID Coordinator, Mrs. Shanon Hum.
The very first recipients, Tyler Donald and Kayla Hughes, made us proud with their hard work and determination. 🎓✨
A huge thank you to our amazing sponsors and the SHMS PTA for making this possible. Your support helps our students chase their dreams—and we’re excited to award the next scholarship this year! 🐾💛 #FlashbackFiles #AVID #BobbyAgeeScholarship #SHMS #BearNation #CollegeBound #AVIDWorks

Help us give a big SHMS Bear welcome to Ms. Mixon! 🐻
She’s joining us as a SPED co-teacher and is excited to support our students however she can—especially when it comes to encouragement and growth. When she’s not at school, she’s busy with her family, her church, and maybe even knocking down a few pins (she’s got three state bowling rings to prove it! 🎳).
We’re lucky to have her on our team! 💙 #SHMSgreat #BearsAreBest
