Principal Update


It is hard to believe that September is almost over as time is flying by. We have had a great start up to the school year with many events happening for our students. Here are a few highlights from our first month of the 2026-2027 school year.

  • Grade 9 Day - thank you to our senior students for organizing a fantastic day and thank you to Clear Water for donating a truck load of water for our slip and slide!
  • Terry Fox - We raised over $3100 for Cancer Research! Thank you to our Rec Leadership students for facilitating this initiative.
  • Club Carousel - At lunch following the Terry Fox Run, students enjoyed a free cookie courtesy of Student Council and were able to visit different clubs offered at SHS. We have SHS Band Club, Trivia Club, eSports, Robotics, Outdoors Club, Games Club, P7, and more!
  • Our own SHS Colton Dee qualified in golf for EOSSA, good luck to Colton next week on the links!
  • Picture Day was Sept. 22, and yearbooks are already on School-Day for purchase.
