One Week Until the First Day of School!
Warhawk families, the countdown is officially on! We are just one week away from welcoming students back to Seminole High School.
The first day of school is Tuesday, August 11th. We are excited to begin another great year as we continue Designing an A-Rated Future While Elevating the Student Experience!
Freshman & New Student Orientation
Our Freshman and New Student Orientation will take place on Thursday, August 6th.
This is a great opportunity for students and families to become familiar with our campus, learn about school expectations, and prepare for a successful start. Please see the orientation flyer in this newsletter for session times and additional details.
Campus Construction & New Student Registration
Although we are close to the beginning of the new school year, Seminole High School remains an active construction site.
On Monday, all new student registration will take place in the gym lobby. Families should park in the student parking lot and enter the gym through the student parking lot entrance.
Thank you for your patience and flexibility as construction continues.
Student Schedules Are Available August 3rd
Student schedules will be available beginning August 3rd at 9:00 a.m. through the FOCUS Parent Portal.
Complete Your Back-to-School Forms
Back-to-School Forms for the 2026–2027 school year are now available in FOCUS for parents and guardians.
Please review and complete all required forms, including the documentation needed for students to receive their new Apple device/MacBook. Completing these forms before the first day of school will help minimize delays with technology distribution and other important school services.

Say Something
Pinellas County Schools has partnered with Sandy Hook Promise to offer the Say Something Anonymous Reporting System. Say Something allows you to submit secure & anonymous safety concerns to help identify and intervene upon at-risk individuals BEFORE they hurt themselves or others. Tips made to the Say Something Anonymous Reporting System are passed along to the appropriate law enforcement agencies and school officials.
Fortify FL
Additionally, the district utilizes FortifyFL, a school-related suspicious activity reporting tool that allows Florida students and the community the ability to instantly relay information anonymously concerning unsafe, potentially harmful, dangerous, violent or criminal activities, or the threat of these activities, to the appropriate law enforcement agencies and school officials. FortifyFL was created and funded by the 2018 Florida Legislature as part of the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School Public Safety Act.
