School Store: There is a well-stocked school store available to the students with both school supplies and Sutton spirit wear. The store is open before school on Tuesday & Thursday mornings.

Student Agenda: Sutton Middle School provides a student agenda for every student at the beginning of school. The agenda has a three-fold purpose:

It is the student's responsibility to bring this agenda to every class and enter relevant information. Parents should review their student's agenda daily to stay informed about progress and the class content.
The cooperation that exists among the home, school, and community is directly related to the effectiveness of Sutton's educational program. The experience of working together is the highest possible education for every student.

Spirit Wear: Sutton Spirit Wear and 6th grade Academy Shirts will be available to purchase at orientation, grade level meet and greets, open house, and PTA coffee talks. You can also download the Sutton Spirit wear order form. Fill it out and have your child bring it to his / her homeroom teacher.
