Happy Custodian Appreciation Day! Today is the day we recognize the hard work and dedication of those who keep our everyday spaces beautiful. We'd like to thank our custodians for taking on the tough job of keeping our buildings clean, sanitized, and safe.
Do you have internet access at home? Did you know that the SDHS Library has hotspots available for check out? Head to the library to get a hotspot permission slip and get setup for success today!
Attention all parents of 9th and 10th grade students: SDHS will be holding a PSAT administration during the school day for all freshmen (Oct 3) and for all sophomores and invited juniors (Oct 17). The exam is digital and students will be testing on their school issued iPads. Please make sure your students have the Bluebook Exams App on their Home Screen and they come to exam day with their device fully charged. Please be aware that once students begin testing, they will not be able to leave for an early departure without forfeiting their score.
To be commended indeed!
Congratulations to seniors Simran Jain, Daniel Karcheuski, Logan Plumley, and Ethan Justice, all of whom were named National Merit Commended Scholars after scoring in the top 3% among PSAT test takers nationwide.
