This month, our counseling program is all about teamwork. We’re helping students understand the value of collaboration, clear communication, and appreciating the unique strengths that each person brings to a group. Teamwork is a critical skill that extends beyond the classroom, setting students up for success in college, careers, and in their future relationships.

You can help reinforce these skills at home with small activities that require collaboration. For example, involve your child in planning a family meal or organizing a weekend activity where everyone has a role. Encourage open communication, and remind them that listening and respecting each other’s ideas are essential parts of working well together.

By practicing teamwork both at school and at home, we can help our students become confident, cooperative, and prepared for the challenges ahead. Thank you for partnering with us in this journey to support their growth!

This month, we’re conducting degree audits for our 11th-grade students on November 18 and 20. These audits help track each student’s progress towards their degree, providing a clear picture of their achievements and goals. We’re proud of the hard work our students are putting into reaching this milestone!

We have updated the EOC Test Dates to allow more time for review and preparation. Please take a moment to read the information below and mark your calendars. It is crucial that all students are present on these dates, as passing all 5 EOC exams is a graduation requirement for high school students.

In preparation for the EOC exams, our teachers have worked hard to create engaging and interactive review academies. Your son or daughter will receive an invitation to attend one of these preparation sessions. We appreciate your support in encouraging them to participate and make the most of these valuable opportunities.

The SHS Theater Department is excited to announce the showtimes for our fall production, Into the Woods. We are especially proud of our SA3 students who are part of the cast and have dedicated their time and talent to this performance. We invite you to join us in supporting them on any of the upcoming dates listed below:
