8th Grade Promotion Night last Tuesday night was a huge success, and we could not be more proud of the Class of 2030! It was a special evening celebrating a group of students who have grown tremendously during their time at SMS, and we are excited to watch them take the next step into high school and this next chapter of life. A special congratulations goes to our top-ranked 8th grade students who had the unique opportunity to speak during the promotion ceremony. Jazlyn Huerta, Stellan Sanders, Eli Rodgers, BreAllyn Griffith, Raegan Reynolds, Emma Pena, and Everett Perez represented the Class of 2030 extremely well and did an outstanding job speaking in front of a packed crowd gathered to celebrate this milestone. We would also like to recognize and thank our 7th Grade ushers for helping make the evening run smoothly. They are our top four ranked 7th grade students Brynn Carr, Carter Mauldin, Juliet Neighbors, and Roxie Hall. We are proud of each and every one of our students and grateful for the families, staff, and community members who continue to support them along the way.

Sundown ISD would like to wish Mrs. Evalina a very Happy Retirement! For the past 24 years, Evalina has faithfully served Sundown ISD as a custodian, spending 18 years at SHS and the last 6 years at SMS. Through her hard work, dedication, and care for our campuses, she has left a lasting impact on generations of students and staff. Her legacy at Sundown runs even deeper, as all 6 of her children proudly graduated as Roughnecks: Ransley ’04, Lisa ’10, Martin ’14, Marcella ’15, Rebecca ’19, and Brandon ’21. Mrs. Evalina has been an important part of the Sundown family for many years, and while retirement is well-earned, she will always have a home here in Sundown. We are grateful for her years of service, commitment, and love for our schools. Congratulations, Mrs. Evalina! We wish you nothing but happiness and blessings in this next chapter of life!
