Stowe High School Family Update

“The mission of Stowe High School is to provide a welcoming and academically rigorous environment, where all students are encouraged to be Creative, Caring and Collaborative learners”

The 2025-2026 school year is coming to end and what a year it has been! High school is filled with many ups and downs, however one thing that is clear to me year after year is the ability of SHS students to demonstrate both perseverance and resilience. I am incredibly proud of our graduating seniors as each one of them have so much to offer. I cannot wait to see all of the amazing things they do, as they take on new and exciting challenges in the years ahead. I have said this many times over the years...I am truly the luckiest Principal in all of Vermont! Everyday I get to work with an incredible staff, but more importantly I am surrounded by students and families who value education at a deep level. The entire Stowe community feels like my extended family and I am grateful to a part of this special place.

I hope each of you have a safe and healthy summer break with opportunities for adventure, travel, rest and time with family and friends. I am available throughout the summer months, if you would like to stop by and say hi or address any questions or concerns you might have about the upcoming school year.- David

June 10-15- Grades 9, 10, and 11 Final exams (see schedule here)

June 11&12 @ 9:00am - Graduation Rehearsals

June 13 - Graduation @ 11:00am

1. All seniors should be at school for rehearsals from 9:00am-10:00am on Thursday and Friday.

2. It's important that they are on time.

3. Friday there will be a brunch in the cafeteria after rehearsals.

4. They will also receive their caps and gowns on Friday along with tickets if we need to move the ceremony inside. (Although, the forecast looks very favorable!)

This week is often a time for reflection and celebration, as the seniors cross the stage and receive their diplomas in just a few short days. Here are a few pictures from their grand entrance on day one of what has been a memorable year!

I would also like to take a moment and welcome our soon to be 9th graders. They are preparing for their SMS graduation later today and I could not be more excited for them to join us at the high school. Here is a sneak peak of this fantastic group...GO RAIDERS!

Although most students are preparing for finals, graduation and making summer plans, Mr. Kennedy's AP Lit students are still working hard and practicing a little Shakespeare. See a few pictures below of this one time performance!

2026 SENIOR FAMILIES:
The Stowe High School Baccalaureate Ceremony will be held this Friday, June 12 at 5pm at the Stowe Community Church.
Who is Invited?
All family members of Graduating Seniors which includes immediate family and extended family members.
What time should we arrive?
The students should arrive no later than 4:45pm and will meet their classmates in the basement of the Stowe Community Church. Parents should be seated by 4:55pm. Please leave enough time to park and enter the church.

What should the Seniors wear?
The girls usually wear long sun dresses and the boys usually wear khakis and a collared shirt. This is a suggestion. Please do not stress over this.
What should family members wear?
Smart casual. Again, this is a suggestion.
Who is speaking from our community?
Since this is a farewell service, clergy from the following places of worship will be blessing the students: Stowe Community Church, Jewish Community of Greater Stowe, Grace Bible Church, Blessed Sacrament Church, St. John’s in the Mountains Episcopal Church.
Are there other speakers? Yes. Tegan Garon will be offering words of encouragement.
We are excited to continue this long lasting tradition and celebrate the Senior Class of 2026. Any questions or comments should be emailed to Deana Hailey at deanahailey@aol.com.

Weekly update from Tim Albertson

We recently posted two positions in School Spring, related to next year's musical production.

Both positions play an essential role in planning, casting and producing a high quality musical performance. If you or anyone you know might be interested, please apply via the School Spring website.

We have made a small change to how parents can notify the school regarding student absences and attendance. Going forward...if you choose to email the school in order to excuse an absence, please use the following shs.attendance@lamoillesouth.org. You can always call the attendance line as well if you like at (802) 253-7229 and choose option 1.

The PowerSchool mobile app is a great way to stay informed about your student's grades and attendance. If you are not currently using it, please see the simple directions below to access important student information.

• Open the relevant app store on your device, search for "PowerSchool," and then download the free "PowerSchool App." Use the code LNMT to link to the LSSU database, and enter the login credentials you were provided with by the district. Navigate between different views from a menu on the bottom of the screen. If you have more than one child, switch between their information by clicking on another name in the top right corner.
