Vying for STATE!

VOLLEYBALL is down in Las Vegas today to compete in the state tournament. A win today puts them in the State Championship match tomorrow! GIRLS and BOYS SOCCER are also in pursuit of state titles, with their tournament hosted at Reed High School in Reno. Just like Volleyball, teams that win their semifinal matches today will advance to the State Championship tomorrow. Additionally, GIRLS and BOYS CROSS COUNTRY will wrap up their season with their final state championship race tomorrow in Boulder City. Good luck to all of our Viking athletes!

Veterans Concert

Join us on Monday as the STMS and STHS Music Departments present our Annual Veterans Concert in the STMS multipurpose room! Everyone in our school community is welcome to attend and enjoy the performance.

Reminder: All LTUSD schools will be closed on Wednesday, November 11th, in observance of Veterans Day.

Upcoming Event Notice: Fentanyl Awareness Presentations

Looking ahead, STHS will host speaker presentations on the dangers of fentanyl. Presenters will take an educational approach, sharing their personal experiences and the loss of a family member. Presentations are scheduled during FLEX on December 14th for Juniors and December 15th for Seniors.

Proud to be a VIKE!

Today we celebrated our 84 GEN-ONE students who are working toward being the first in their families to attend college! We are so proud of them and loved getting to celebrate together. A huge thank you to Sombreros for donating the delicious nacho bar and to STHS Boosters for their generosity and to everyone who helped make today happen. These students deserve to know how many people are cheering them on! 💙 Dream • Believe • Go

These outreach endeavors are such an impactful offering to our local high school students, that not only shows them what's available right here at home, but hopefully inspires them on potential career paths they may not have known existed before.
