Wurtsbaugh Photography will be taking pictures.
Parents and community members are welcome to attend; the ceremony will also be live-streamed. This is a chance for everyone to see all the wonderful opportunities Sullivan High School has to offer!

According to Worlds Children’s Prize, a website advocating for children leaders, “8 million tons of plastic end up in our oceans every year and the plastic injures over 600 species of animals that live in and by the sea.” These NHS members were eager to provide their service to the school by picking up trash, wiping down desks, and cleaning windows. We can all make a big change in our world’s litter crisis by lending a helping hand when we can. A big thank you to Lara Herschberger, Lilly Graham, Kenzie Pedigo, Hali Mirocha, and Landry Hall!
