SHS Weekly E-News, 08.29.24
Our very own Coach Chris Gomez is having major surgery next week with an unknown diagnosis. Members of our community along with the Attack Life Sloan Foundation have set up a fundraiser to help offset the upcoming significant medical costs. 100 percent of the donations will go directly to the Gomez family. All fees will be covered by the Foundation. Please donate any amount to serve the Gomez family. Thank you.

New SMS/SHS PTA is HERE! Please Join!
Welcome to your BRAND NEW PTA exclusively for the students, teachers and parents of Sunnyvale Middle School and High School!
In order to meet the demands of our growing Student Body and Teacher populations in the school district, we have formed a brand new PTA that focuses solely on the Middle School and High School campuses. When you join this PTA, 100% of your funds will be used exclusively on events, engagements, and activities at these two schools.
If you are a parent or teacher reading this, we want you to know that we see you and hear you. We know that you are emotionally invested in the children at these schools. And we know that we can only exist as an organization with your support, not just financially, but also emotionally, spiritually, and physically. To be frank, we NEED you.
We are extraordinarily grateful for every single dollar you can give, every single hour you can volunteer, every single item you can donate to our organization. We are just getting started, but we truly hope that you will join us on this journey and help us to grow this PTA into something that will reflect the standard of excellence we have come to expect from our Sunnyvale School District.
Thank you and God Bless You.
Chelsea Nowell
President of Sunnyvale MS and HS PTA
