Guess what time it is? Time for a break! Enjoy your spring break this week, April 1-5th.

UPDATE: The SECURE protocol has ended and the situation has been resolved at SSHS. Everyone is safe. Thank you to Summit County Sheriff Department for always responding quickly and your dedication to keeping our students and staff safe.

SSHS is currently in a SECURE protocol due to law enforcement activity outside of the building. Staff is safe. Students are on Spring Break this week. SECURE protocol means everyone gets inside and doors are locked. Nobody is allowed in or out. We continually train for emergency situations like this one. We're so appreciative of our excellent partnership with Summit County Sheriff Department and their quick response.

Mrs. Small's Sewing Construction and Textiles class has been busy learning new skills and making a big difference in some little lives. The class recently sewed more than 80 baby blankets to donate to the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) at Primary Children's Hospital. It's 'sew' neat to see our students not just threading needles, but sewing seeds of compassion and kindness. #WeAreSouthSummit #UTPublicEd #PrimaryChildrensHospital #SSHSWildcats

We know that we have some amazingly talented students in our schools. But it's always nice when the judges agree with us. Our Music Department recently competed in Region events.

They both qualified to perform at the UHSAA State Solo and Ensemble!! Additionally, our Tapestry, who performed in the Chamber Choir Event qualified as well. Congratulations, students and directors-Mr. Beal and Mr. Scribner! That is truly music to our ears!
