Schedule Change: HS Girls Basketball has added a game on 1/8 at home vs Marshall - Modified JV & Varsity starting at 6:00 pm
SHS sports families, several IHSA proposals were recently approve that will significantly impact scheduling starting in 2026:
1 - Expanded IHSA Playoffs - The IHSA has expanded the football playoffs by 16 schools in each class. As a result, Week 0 (scrimmage week) will now be Week 1
2 - Change to IHSA Dead Week - The IHSA official Dead Week is now June 29-July 5, aligning with the 4th of July holiday. This was previously in August, which will now be the first week of football.
We understand that there is a lot of coordination for many families planning family vacations over the summer. We will share out more detailed schedules as they are set, but hopefully this allows everyone to plan ahead when scheduling their commitments.

The student council hosted a fun and festive week for the students in the high school. They had dress-up days, hosted the festival of trees in the atrium, and then did a fun Santa Hunt. 3-D printed Santa hats, trees, 9 reindeer and a Mr. and Mrs. Clause were hid around the school. The winners who found the 9 reindeer received $10 gift cards to McDonald's, Mrs. Clause was a $25 Visa gift card and Santa was a $50 gift card. The winners are pictured. The SHS Student Council wishes everyone a Merry Christmas! 🎄🎁

As part of SHS FCCLA's commitment to community service in 2025, we are once again honored to partner with the National Guard in creating a magical Christmas celebration for our brave soldiers and their families. On Friday, Ms. Taylor’s afternoon PE classes, along with Ms. Voegel’s FCS students and Ms. Parish’s Career English class, poured their energy and kindness into wrapping gifts, decorating the Armory, and preparing a festive atmosphere full of hope and joy. Then, on Sunday, our dedicated FCCLA chapter members and officers passionately gave their time—crafting heartfelt art projects, supervising laughter-filled bounce house moments, and serving a warm meal to our community's heroes as they cherished quality time with their families. We are deeply proud to provide our young leaders with these powerful opportunities—moments to embody the spirit of giving, to develop essential life skills, and to forge genuine connections through meaningful communication. Our sincere gratitude goes to the local organizations that continue to collaborate with us, enabling these young hearts to grow in compassion, leadership, and service that will guide them in their future endeavors.
