Welcome New Staff Member - Tylor Poe.
Tylor joined us at the start of the school year and unfortunately, we missed highlighting her!
This is Tylor's first time working in a school. She has an associates degree in Science. Tylor lives with her boyfriend, her father and her cat, Frankie. In her free time ,Tylor takes care of her father & other elderly family members. Tylor's favorite quote is: "Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter, and those who matter don't mind." - Bernard M. Baruch.
Ms. Poe is excited to work at Smithton because she enjoys "being part of a child's learning journey. I also love the energy and curiosity that students bring each day."
Tylor's care-giving nature can already be seen with some of our youngest students. Welcome Tylor!

Last week, Smithton school joined together for National Suicide Prevention Week 💛 ✨ We chalked the walk with messages of hope 📚 We shared SEL book readings that inspired kindness and empathy 🔗 We built a colorful chain filled with positive messages and drawings to remind us we’re all connected Each morning, we also shared one simple but powerful reminder: 👉 Kindness doesn’t cost a thing. We don’t have to be friends with everyone, but we can always choose kindness. As the week closes, let’s carry this message forward — in our classrooms, our hallways, our homes, and our community. Small acts of kindness can make a big difference. 💛 #YouMatter #ChooseKindness #OurSchoolCares #MentalHealthAwareness

🌟 National Suicide Awareness Month 🌟

At Smithton School we believe in the power of connection, kindness, and community. 💙 Today our 7th & 8th graders came together for “Chalk the Walk”, spreading messages of hope, encouragement, and support across our sidewalks.

Each word, each drawing, is a reminder that no one is ever alone. Together, we can create a community where kindness shines and connection makes us stronger. 💛🖍️
