Message from Principal Haroldson
Dear SHS Families,
As we approach the final weeks of the academic year, I can’t help but to express my overwhelming sense of pride for our students. This time of year is a culmination of years of hard work and unwavering dedication. It is an honor to witness our students shine so brightly.
Please join me in celebrating the incredible milestones our seniors have achieved.
Our students have earned an impressive array of scholarships this year, proving that their academic focus and community involvement have truly paid off. These awards will pave the way for their futures.
It was a privilege to celebrate our academic standouts at our recent Honors Night. Seeing so many students walk across the stage to receive departmental awards and recognition for their academic accolades was inspiring.
I am also proud of our student-athletes who have officially committed to playing college athletics! Balancing rigorous academics with elite sportsmanship is no small feat, and we cannot wait to cheer you on at the next level.
All of these achievements are leading us to the most anticipated event of the year. The countdown to Graduation has officially begun! There is a buzz of excitement in the hallways as our seniors prepare to turn their tassels and step into the next chapter of their lives.
Thank you to our phenomenal staff and supportive families who have helped guide these students to this monumental milestone. Let’s finish this year strong and make these final weeks truly unforgettable!
Sincerely
Ryan Haroldson, SHS Principal

How to join the waitlist: If you would like to be notified if additional yearbooks become available, please visit the Jostens website at the following link to sign up: Jostens Yearbook Waitlist Please note that being on the waitlist does not guarantee a yearbook, but it ensures you will be among the first contacted should any extras arrive.
