Fantastic Final Days!
It's been a great last week of school at SHS! Learning, strengthening relationships, making memories, and saying good-bye have all been on the agenda the last few days.
Enjoy all the photos of the Theatre class's final production, Culinary Arts' field trips and cookout, wiring electrical circuits in Ag Mechanics, the incredible growth in skills from freshman Art class, glow day good-byes in Biology, smiling faces at Track, and final shenanigans as HS seniors.
Then, let summer break begin!
Summer School June 2-27
Summer School will be held June 2-27 at SHS. Summer school is an opportunity to make up credit for classes previously taken and failed and help students stay on track to graduate. Applications have been mailed to students that should consider attending, but applications and sign up are still available at the HS office. Please contact the school with questions you may have.
