All Saints Day at SMS was incredible! We started off with a wonderful Mass with Fr. Tom complete with some familiar saintly faces! From St. Catherine of Siena to St. Francis of Assisi, we loved seeing our students honor the holy men and women who inspire us to live lives of faith and service.
We also had the joy of crowning our newest Kings and Queens of Kindness, recognizing students who go above and beyond to show kindness, care, compassion, and good old-fashioned manners!
And a special shoutout to our 8th graders for the incredible Saint Museum they created for our school community. What a wonderful opportunity for all of us to learn more about the lives of the Saints who are wonderful examples of what it means to “let all that you do be done in love” 💛
🏆 Teacher of the Month: Ms. Shapard!
Each month, our Leadership Team recognizes a teacher who goes above and beyond to serve our school community, meet the needs of our students, and demonstrate leadership among our faculty.
This month, we are so excited to celebrate Ms. Shap- our PE & Wellness Teacher! Only in her second year at SMS, she has already demonstrated an incredible commitment to our students and our community. She brings energy, enthusiasm, and genuine care to everything she does, making PE and Health not only fun and engaging, but safe, meaningful, and important parts of our students’ learning experience.
We are so grateful for the dedication, heart, and leadership she brings to our school each day.
Congratulations, Ms. Shap!
Building community, one lunch at a time! Our PK–3rd Grade students gather in mixed-age “Faith Families” during lunch, creating opportunities for friendships across grade levels, mentorship, and student leadership. Older students have the chance to lead and care for younger students, while everyone experiences the joy of belonging to one school family. 💛
At St. Madeleine Sophie School, we believe community is built through connection—and everything we do goes back to love. ❤️
A big day of Halloween celebrations! Joy everywhere!
Our faculty showing their creativity this Halloween! This year’s theme was favorite storybook characters, and everyone had some fun bringing their faves to life. Any guesses who showed up at SMS today?
We believe that being a community of learners means recognizing that we all have something to learn from one another- some of the most meaningful lessons come from the people right within our own community!
We are so grateful to a couple of our incredible SMS parents who have become integral partners in helping our students and faculty learn about Down syndrome, and better understand how our differences make us stronger together.
The conversations and questions Mrs. Mills started last year, continued to build on one another, and it was especially exciting to see just how much our students remembered, how their understanding has deepened, and how thoughtfully they engaged in this year’s learning! Thank you to her and Mrs. Geisel for developing lessons, providing memories, and making treats and gifts!
We know inclusion doesn’t happen by accident. It’s hard fought for, and we are so grateful for the people who help us live that commitment every day. This is what it means to be a community where everyone belongs, everyone contributes, we think outside ourselves & love thy neighbor ❤️
Our pews AND our hearts were full today! It was our first Family Mass of the year and we were surrounded by so many of the people who make our SMS community so special! There is something truly beautiful about coming together in faith, surrounded by family, friends, and loved ones.
Today, we also celebrated the launch of our new King (and Queen!) Kindness Awards! 👑 Each week, we will recognize students who go above and beyond to authentically and consistently live out the value of kindness. These are the role models who remind us that even the smallest acts of compassion can make the biggest difference. What better way to celebrate the heart of our school community and mission…
(And can we take a moment to appreciate how sharp our amazing faculty looked in their new Mass blazers?! Looking good, SMS FACULTY!)

One of our favorite days of the year! We had the joy of welcoming the Notre Dame Remick Leadership Program to SMS for one of their immersion visits!
There is something very special about bringing together two mission-driven communities who share a passion for Catholic education! We filled the day with collaboration, shared ideas, meaningful conversations, and opportunities to learn and grow from one another.
We are so grateful for this incredible partnership and the chance to celebrate the amazing work happening in Catholic schools!
At St. Madeleine Sophie, our Catholic identity is at the heart of who we are. Through prayer, service, and the example of St. Madeleine Sophie Barat, we encourage students to live their faith each day and put love into action. ✝️
