Proud to highlight the collaborative effort between the SHS History Club and Sullivan Public Library during the Tombstone Tales event. Students engaged the community by portraying the lives of Sullivan County citizens in authentic period costumes, showcasing not only their talent but also a commitment to preserving local history. The positive feedback from attendees reflects the importance of such initiatives in fostering community connections.

We were proud to celebrate the outstanding dedication of the fall 8th grade athletes. Their commitment to excellence competing in Carlisle and Sullivan Middle School athletics sets a benchmark for teamwork and perseverance. Congratulations to all!

Please contact your child’s teacher to schedule a conference time if you have not done so already.
