Principal's Message

The stress and anxiety levels are always elevated during finals week and I hope they feel a sense of relief and accomplishment this weekend. To give a little extra reprieve, there is NO SCHOOL ON MONDAY!!

SBAC Preperation
Beginning Tuesday, many juniors will begin preparing for this year’s SBAC Math test in their math classes. The SBAC Math test is important for individual students (college success indicator, saving on college tuition by placing out of remedial college math courses) as well as for our school community as a whole (CA Dashboard score).
The SBAC Math test will be taken the week of 4/17-4/21! SBAC Math prep materials will be made available to all SCHS juniors so keep your eyes on your email.
SBAC Goodie Bag Donations
Please help SCHS with student goodie bags for state testing!
Each year, the school puts together hundreds of goodie bags to give to students taking these required tests as a fun little way to support the kids. They are a huge hit!

Staff will be putting these items into each goodie bag this year along with encouraging and playful messages for each: https://bit.ly/schs-goodies

Donations must be dropped off in the school office by 3pm Friday March 17th.
