Dear Seminole High School Students and Families,

Welcome back! As we return from Spring Break and begin the final quarter of the school year, I want to take a moment to recognize all that we’ve achieved together so far—and to look ahead at the exciting opportunities that lie before us.

This last stretch of the school year is important, and we are committed to helping every student finish strong. To make the most of the final quarter, we are focusing on a few key priorities:

Reconnecting as a Community:
We know the break was a valuable time to rest and recharge. Now, we’re encouraging everyone to reconnect—with classmates, teachers, and the Seminole High School family. Sharing what brought you joy during the break and what you’re looking forward to can help build positive momentum for the weeks ahead.

Setting Goals for Success:
A new quarter is a fresh start! We encourage students to reflect on the past and set clear, meaningful goals for themselves—whether academic, social, or personal. No matter the challenges faced earlier in the year, it’s never too late to make progress and succeed. Our staff is here to support you every step of the way.

Reestablishing Routines:
After time away, it’s natural for routines to slip. We will be reviewing expectations and classroom procedures so everyone can quickly get back into a productive rhythm. Structure and consistency will help students stay focused and finish the year with confidence.

The finish line is in sight, and we are excited for what’s ahead. Together, we will make this quarter one of growth, achievement, and lasting memories. Thank you for your partnership in making Seminole High School a place where students feel supported, challenged, and inspired to be their very best.

Let’s make the final quarter one to remember!

With appreciation and enthusiasm,

Principal Brown

While we were away for spring break, taking time to relax and recharge, AJAX Instruction Company was diligently at work installing fencing and initiating demolition on buildings D and E. Upon returning, students and staff will notice that the D and E wings are now completely closed off, and the hallway leading to the bus ramp has been reduced in size. Additionally, a portion of the café courtyard has been closed off due to construction; however, there is still ample space available for students to dine and enjoy their lunch in the cafeteria and the remaining courtyard areas. Please review the construction updates from AJAX below.

Students were nominated for their outstanding achievements both in school and in the community, demonstrating excellence in areas such as academics, citizenship, performing arts, fine arts, hobbies, athletics, and club involvement. In many cases, recipients excelled in multiple categories. Each student was awarded a certificate and a scholarship check. Additionally, the Seminole Elks Lodge 2519 will host a celebratory dinner in early April to honor the recipients and their families.

Congratulations to Freshman Riley Turknett for being voted to the PCAC All-County North Division's 2nd team for Girls Basketball!!

Congratulations to Aubrey Close and Ava Santore who were given Honorable Mention for the PCAC Girls Basketball All-County North Division.

Pinellas County Schools has partnered with Sandy Hook Promise to offer the Say Something Anonymous Reporting System. Say Something allows you to submit secure & anonymous safety concerns to help identify and intervene upon at-risk individuals BEFORE they hurt themselves or others. Tips made to the Say Something Anonymous Reporting System are passed along to the appropriate law enforcement agencies and school officials.

Additionally, the district utilizes FortifyFL, a school-related suspicious activity reporting tool that allows Florida students and the community the ability to instantly relay information anonymously concerning unsafe, potentially harmful, dangerous, violent or criminal activities, or the threat of these activities, to the appropriate law enforcement agencies and school officials. FortifyFL was created and funded by the 2018 Florida Legislature as part of the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School Public Safety Act.
