I was explaining to a community member what I thought separated SR from other school districts. In my opinion it all comes down to things like this...We bring back more SR graduates to work in our district than most other schools. Our people are vested in the success of our students because this is OUR community. We have a culture of support and excellence that is not easily replicated. This new sign in our main hallway displays the teacher/heroes that graduated from SRHS and are back in these hallways supporting our students. I am proud to be one of those individuals as well. Thank you to Sturgeon Engineering for your work on this and I look forward to watching this display grow every year. GO BIG GREEN!
Our staff was here early this morning ensuring our corporation is even safer for students. Our Emergency Response Team practiced their sudden cardiac arrest drill in order to be prepared if any emergency arises in our buildings. We're thankful for staff that put in time to make our corporation a better place!
