Highlight

Over 20 area first responders visited campus for our first COP Stop of the year. We welcomed MPD officers, Shelby County Sheriff deputies, and Memphis firefighters. Our students always enjoy meeting the men and women who are protecting their community.

Second Grade Mummies!

At SAA-SDS one of our biggest goals is to nurture a love of learning in all our students. 2nd grade teachers Beth Barker and Madeline Forsdick are always finding creative ways to bring lessons to life. They recently collaborated on the novel study of their summer reading book, Mummies in the Morning.
