Dear Families,

As we enter the final month of the school year, June provides an opportunity to celebrate the many accomplishments of our students and school community. From awards ceremonies and cherished senior traditions to graduation and final examinations, this is a time to reflect on a year marked by growth, perseverance, and achievement.

We look forward to honoring the Class of 2026 as they conclude their high school journey and begin an exciting new chapter. We also wish all students success as they finish the school year strong.

On behalf of the entire school community, I hope the summer months provide time for rest, reflection, and meaningful moments with family and friends.

Congratulations to the Class of 2026, and best wishes for a safe and enjoyable summer.

With Wildcat Pride,

Mr. Anthony T. Hibbert, Principal

On May 20th the SHS Commons was filled with savory aromas and colorful displays! The World Language Honor Societies, along with World Language teachers and Mrs. Schrager hosted Multicultural Night for the third consecutive year, this time combined with participants from the middle school. In total, 24 booths featured information and realia. This year our evening featured three cultural dances: Peruvian dance by Saory Auquí, Irish step dance by Keely Fagan, and Bollywood dance by Anwesha Chandra and Prarthana Ray.

The Sociedad Honoraria Hispánica and the Société Honoraire de Français inducted a combined 40 new members on April 23rd! The event began with a piano prelude by senior Olivia Mishtal, and included an opening address by advisor Laura Tinnirella, a feature address by department leader Dr. Katie Thorner, and the closing address by Principal Anthony Hibbert. Each honor society inducted its members with a candle lighting ceremony led by Camile Fawthrop, Anna-Maria Nastase and Noora Khaled for SHF, and Nuvia Torres-Flores, Amelia Shanks, and Dalia Abouelleil for SHH. French inductees responded with the motto “Avoir une autre langue, c’est posséder une deuxième âme.” Spanish inductees responded with the motto: “Todos a una.” The inductees then recited the society’s pledge all together, led by vice presidents Makenna Sattan and Anwesha Chandra. This year, SHS’s exchange student Lucia Sanjuan Armendariz was presented with an honorary membership for her participation in several SHH activities throughout the year.

Congratulations to our newly elected National Honor Society Officers:

President: Makenna Sattan

Vice President: Amelia Shanks

Treasurer: Shaunak Ukidwe
