Before the school year starts, each school assembles a Continuous Improvement Plan (CIP) Team to assess their school's data. This includes reviewing attendance, grade performance, behavior, and student and family perception surveys. The team then sets two main goals to focus on for the upcoming school year, and creates an action plan. Superior High School's two CIP goals for the 2023/24 school year are:

Goal 1: We will increase the number of students earning class credit in each of their classes to 100% by the end of each semester.
Reduction in Course failures per semester:
800 in 2021-2022 to 400 in 2023-2024

2022-2023 Graduation Rate: 95%

2021-2022 Graduation Rate: 85%

Goal 2: We will Increase the number of students feeling valued within the school community to 100% as measured by student perception survey in the Spring of 2024.

Mid-Year Survey Results:
Trusted adult - increase from 83.6% to 86.8%
Feeling valued - increase from 74.8% to 76.9%

Students will be surveyed again later this month.

SHS has an annual tradition of an all-night party for our graduates, organized and hosted by parents. This year the party will be held on the evening of graduation on Friday, May 31st. We need all hands on deck to pull off this celebration! Interested in helping? Here are a few ways:

• Sign up to help set up or help at the event. Please sign up by filling out your info on this form. Our school district is requiring that all volunteers in our buildings pass a two part background check. Once you complete the sign up, you will be sent info for completing the background check. We do want to get a jump on this to complete it so that we are ready to go by the time May comes around, so please sign up asap.
• Join the planning committee if you'd like to help even further, connect with Nicky Wilson at nickyw2433@gmail.com and she can assist you with meeting dates.
• Support: Save the date to visit Superior DQ on May 1st from 5-8pm and mention the flyer below for a percentage of your purchase to be donated toward the party fund. The more that can be raised, the better experience we can give the students this year, and also start a nest egg for next year.
• Donations: If you know a businesses or individual that would like to make a donation, they can be made directly below. The committee is also looking for gift card donations to give to students as prizes. And donations can be brought into the main office.

We will be helping celebrate our SHS teachers and staff during national Teacher Appreciation Week May 6th-10th. We will be putting together a variety of prize baskets for staff to do a drawing during this week. Do you know an individual or a business who would like to donate a prize basket or gift cards to show their appreciation? Contact SHS Family Engagement Coordinator, LeAnn Egnash, at leann.egnash@superior.k12.wi.us for details.

The PTSA also have a variety of donation needs to make that week special for the 220+ teachers between the two schools.

There are two ways you can help!

*Click here to give a monetary donation and they'll do the shopping.

*Click here to sign up to bring items. We are asking for donations to be delivered the day before the planned event to allow the PTSA board time to evaluate totals and complete additional shopping if necessary.

If you plan to help out at Superior High School, please visit the link below and complete the 2 PART process. If you need assistance with the fee associated with the background check, please email leann.egnash@superior.k12.wi.us and she can help you. We do not want this fee to deter you from making a positive difference at our school. You can specify in your application if you want it to include multiple schools within our district. This check is valid for one year from the date it is complete.
