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.
• 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.

MEETING

Our PTSA will be meeting on Wednesday, May 22nd at 5:30 in the library at the middle school. Join us to help wrap up this memorable year.

FUNDRAISER

On Wednesday, May 29th at 6:00pm, they will be having a meat raffle at Birds to help support the PTSA's efforts. Our PTSA helps support both the middle and the high school.

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.

The art department's digital photography class are seeking old Pentax K1000 cameras to be donated for our students to explore and learn darkroom photography processes. This is something they really would appreciate as the photography class sizes are growing in numbers and film cameras are not something we can purchase new.

They are also looking for glass fish tanks for students to experiment with water type subject matter.

Donations can be brought to the main office to the attention of Ms. White. You can email her with any questions at olivia.white@superior.k12.wi.us

The Spring Band Concert will on Wednesday, May 1st at 6pm in the PAC. You can watch LIVE on our District YouTube page HERE.

Our Drama department production of the Wizard of Oz was this past weekend and had rave reviews. Here is one Facebook message we received:

"I wanted to message about the outstanding production that was put on this last weekend. The Wizard of Oz was just amazing. The talent that is in this school never ceases to amaze and surprise me. I applaud the directors, cast, and crew and everyone involved. Their dedication is commendable. I look forward to all future plays. Thank you for an awesome afternoon."
