Stowe High School Family Update

“The mission of Stowe High School is to provide a welcoming and academically rigorous environment, where all students are encouraged to be Creative, Caring and Collaborative learners”

From Saturday nights Prom to yesterday's awards ceremony and our annual Field Day tomorrow, it has been a busy but fun week here at SHS! At the awards ceremony we announce this year's Valedictorian or should I say Valedictorians. Congratulations to the following students who have reached this incredible milestone: Lillian Brown, Georgia Schnee, and Heath Colbert-Lourie.

Our very own Tim Albertson has been selected as the NVAC AD of the year!

"We would like to take a moment to recognize our incredible Athletic Director, Tim Albertson. Tim was recently celebrated as the Northern Vermont Athletic Conference's Athletic Director of the Year, a distinction that honors his commitment to the athletics and activities here at Stowe High School. Being an AD can be a thankless job. It’s an endless balancing act of schedules, budgets, logistics, and the weather. But Tim handles the chaos with grace, keeping the focus where it belongs: on the growth, character, and success of our student-athletes. He has been a tireless advocate for every team, coach, and athlete who puts on our jersey. Please join me in congratulating Tim Albertson, NVAC Athletic Director of the year!"

2026 SENIOR FAMILIES:

The Stowe High School Baccalaureate Ceremony will be held on Friday, June 12, 2026 at 5:00PM at Stowe Community Church. This is a long standing tradition which will offer graduating seniors, their families, and the community a meaningful opportunity to reflect, celebrate, and recognize the journey ahead. It is a blessing—honoring students with words of encouragement, gratitude, and hope for the future. The ceremony will feature speakers, music, and inspirational messages in a supportive and uplifting atmosphere.

This is a parent run event. Any questions or comments can be emailed to Deana Hailey at deanahailey@aol.com.

Weekly update from Tim Albertson

The Lamoille South Supervisory Union is working to provide every child with a high quality education in a safe and supportive environment. We know that when schools and parents work together, students are more invested in learning, earn better grades, develop improved social skills, and are more likely to graduate. The results of this survey will be used by district and school-based leadership teams to set goals for the upcoming year around parent and family engagement. The Community Advisory Council helped develop this survey. We ask that you please complete a separate survey for each school you are involved with.

This survey will close on May 22, 2026.

Starting in the 2026-2027 school year, LSSU will be retiring the student Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) program and move to a fully unified School-Issued Chromebook model.

This shift ensures that 100% of our students have the same high-quality hardware, streamlined tech support, and a secure, focused learning environment.

Key Details:

• Distribution: All students will receive their district-managed Chromebook at the start of the school year.

• Support: All students will now have access to on-site repairs and "loaner" devices to ensure no learning time is lost.

• Specialized Courses: Course specific computers will remain available for advanced software needs.

We are excited to provide this opportunity for every student. Please reach out if you have any questions or would like more information.

We have made a small change to how parents can notify the school regarding student absences and attendance. Going forward...if you choose to email the school in order to excuse an absence, please use the following shs.attendance@lamoillesouth.org. You can always call the attendance line as well if you like at (802) 253-7229 and choose option 1.

The PowerSchool mobile app is a great way to stay informed about your student's grades and attendance. If you are not currently using it, please see the simple directions below to access important student information.

• Open the relevant app store on your device, search for "PowerSchool," and then download the free "PowerSchool App." Use the code LNMT to link to the LSSU database, and enter the login credentials you were provided with by the district. Navigate between different views from a menu on the bottom of the screen. If you have more than one child, switch between their information by clicking on another name in the top right corner.
