Visible Learning in action! 🪚🔨
Woodworking students SHS took ownership of their learning while working together, solving problems, and supporting one another. Their amazing teacher coached them along the way and created a safe, organized shop with clear directions at every station. A great example of teamwork, independence, and students doing the work!

Sterling Public Schools is partnering with families to reach our goal of 95% student attendance. What does that mean? In a typical 20-day school month, students should miss no more than 1 day. Over our 176-day school year, that means missing no more than 9 days. #AttendanceMatters #PartneringForSuccess

Families are an important part of our school team! 🤝
Each month, we will focus on a family strategy to partner with us in your child's success.
September: Consistent routines help students feel prepared and ready to learn.
Work together to establish regular times for:
🎒 Preparing backpacks and materials
🌙 Going to bed and waking up
📖 Reading or completing schoolwork
📱 Using technology
😊 Relaxing and spending time together
✅ Try this week: Create one designated place for backpacks, charging devices, and school materials.

Throughout the year, "Warrior Wellness: One Conversation at a Time" series will share practical tips from trusted SHS staff to help SHS families support their teens and stay connected to the people and resources here to help.
This month's Warrior Wellness post comes from SHS Counselors Mrs. Carbaugh, Mr. Gale, Mrs. Hartman, and Mrs. Francis, who work alongside students and families every day to support academic, social, and emotional success.
Building steady routines around sleep, homework, and extracurriculars helps your student feel grounded as expectations ramp up. With a few intentional habits early on, you can set your student up for a confident, balanced year ahead.
When schools and families work together, SHS becomes a place Where Kids Achieve! 💙 🤝 💛

While students are enjoying the last few weeks of summer break, our Technology Department is busy getting SPS ready for another school year! From preparing devices and updating technology to maintenance and troubleshooting, there’s a lot happening behind the scenes.
At SHS, Ryan Vasquez, Technology Department member and Golden Warrior basketball coach, has been preparing MacBooks for 900+ SHS students. Ryan is entering his 20th year with SPS and is one of five members of an outstanding tech team that supports schools across the district.
Ryan says his favorite part of the job is “building meaningful relationships with staff and students through helping people, solving problems, and making a positive impact inside and outside the classroom.”
📱 Computer rollout information has been shared with students and families, so keep an eye on those details to make sure you’re ready for school!
A big THANK YOU to Ryan and our entire SPS Technology Department for keeping our Golden Warriors connected, updated, and ready to learn! 💙💛
