South Sumter High School Newsletter
It's great to be a Raider!
Hello Parents and Students!
I would like to welcome you to a brand new year at South Sumter High School. Our goal is to ensure that all students have the opportunity to Enroll, Enlist, or Employ upon graduation. Whether your student is interested in job skills through one of our CTE programs, college readiness through the AICE/Cambridge Academy, or joining the military through involvement with our NNDCC chapter, I am confident that South Sumter High School has something to offer all students. I hope that you will take this opportunity to support your child in the many high school experiences that will live on in their memories for a lifetime. Thank you for calling South Sumter High School your child’s educational home for the 2024-25 school year!
Mr. Shirley
