Good afternoon Warrior Nation – the Freshman Class is raising funds for their Junior year prom. I know that seems crazy, but it will be here before we know it! We partnered with JJM to create fantastic custom yard signs and car decals for the Activities, Athletics, and Clubs at SHS. Each yard sign also comes with a stake. When you click on the link, you will see the yard sign and car decal items, once you click on one or the other, you will see all the various custom options available. You can also further customize your item by adding the name of your favorite Warrior.
The web-store will be open now through midnight on March 27th. All items ordered will need to be picked up at JJM in Sterling. You will receive an email notifying you that the items are ready.
Show off your Warrior Pride with a yard sign, a decal or a couple of each. Thank you in advance, we appreciate your support!

SPS will be on a 2-hour delayed start tomorrow - Wednesday, January 26, 2022. This means all schools will start two hours later than normal and all bus routes will be running two hours later than normal, as well.
This decision is based on the National Weather Service’s announcement today of a Hazardous Weather Outlook and a Wind Chill Advisory, both for Serling, IL. According to these two special weather announcements, there will be “dangerously cold wind chills that are expected to reach 25 to 30 below zero and could result in frostbite on exposed skin in as little as 30 minutes.”
Due to this 2-hour late start schedule, there will be no AM PreK Program classes at Franklin Elem. or Jefferson Elem. There will, however, be breakfast served at all the schools tomorrow morning two hours later than normal.
