Shoreline Middle School recently held its annual Career Day, featuring more than 30 different career paths to help students explore future possibilities. According to a school newsletter, the event allowed students to learn about a wide variety of career paths through engaging activities provided by parents.
During the event, parents shared their professional experiences and talents with students. The school invited parents interested in participating in future Career Days to email karenbradley@provo.edu to join the presenter list.

Shoreline Middle School maintains a closed campus policy to ensure student safety. Visitors must use the RAPTOR electronic identification system and provide a government-issued ID to check out students. The school also does not allow commercial food deliveries to students; parents may drop food off at the office for their student to receive during lunch.
Parents must contact the school within one week of an absence to have it excused. Absences can be reported by calling 801-374-4980 and selecting option #2, emailing smsattendance@provo.edu, or turning in a doctor's note to the attendance office. When reporting an absence, parents should include the student's name, their name, the dates of the absence, the reason, and a contact phone number.
