From the Principal's Desk
Dear SHS Families,
We are off and running for the 2026-2027 school year. It is always exciting to begin a new journey with a new, unique group of students and teachers. I am eager to see what lessons and triumphs are in store for us. I will be praying for our students, staff, and families throughout the year and hope that your families will keep our school community in your intentions as well.
Tuesday, August 25th, we will have our SHS Back to School night from 6:30-7:30 at the school. This is a parents-only event. We will meet in the Parish Hall, where I will address the school, give some updates on school advancement and policy, followed by teachers leading individual presentations in their classrooms to cover and answer questions about the important policies for their room setup to help your child succeed. Teachers will do two sessions. So parents with multiple children can attend more than one session. We look forward to seeing you all there.
Please check the school’s Google Calendar to see the adjusted date for our Donuts with Dads in September. That event will be on Thursday, Sept. 17th. RSVP’s and more information are coming soon.
With Faith & Hope,
Patrick (P.J.) Greer
Welcome to all of our new families! We are so blessed to have you at SHS.
