Thank you for considering Santa Barbara Middle School as your student's future school. We appreciate the time, care and effort you are taking in this very important decision. SBMS seeks to enroll students who are committed to intellectual and personal growth. We look for those students who can contribute to our community through their talents in academics, athletics, the arts, leadership, and community service.

There are several activities that will help to give you an in-depth look at our broad and unique program, and could provide valuable assistance to your decision-making process beginning with requesting an Information Packet. (Please call the office--we'd love to talk with you.) During the academic year you are welcome to join us at the following events, some early in the school year, some at the end:
- Our school-wide Town Meeting in December. The meeting is at Fleischmann Auditorium at the Museum of Natural History and the main feature will be an audio-visual presentation of our Fall bicycle trip (link is to the 2006 trip).
- In January the school will host its annual Information Night for inquiring families. The Headmaster feels strongly that all applicants and their families should attend this program.
- You may also want to attend the Academic Fair.
- In June, join us at the Fleischmann Auditorium at the Museum of Natural History for the video recap of our 6th & 7th grade End-of-the-Year Expedition.
- Likewise join us at the Fleischmann Auditorium for the video show of our 8th & 9th grade End-of-the-Year Expedition.
- Finally, you may be interested in joining us for our "Rites of Passage" graduation ceremony in Godric Grove at Elings Park, mid-June, where each student is recognized and honored for their achievements and participation in the life of the SBMS community.
Also, you may borrow school videos from the office, and I welcome and encourage you to speak informally with current and past members of our school community. Again, thank you for your interest in our school. If you have any questions, please call me at 682-2989, ext. 101 or email dick@sbms.org
