Attention Warrior family! Homecoming for SHS will be the week of October 17-22! Many have heard that it was this week, but nothing was finalized or announced officially to the public. Due to other events at school and timing of games the date was moved. We apologize for the inconvenience and even though we are doing spirit week it is just part 1 of 2.

It’s #warriorwednesday and SCS would like to introduce you to Bradford Lux, the 4th/5th grade teacher at San Antonio Elementary. This is Mr. Lux’s first year in the District and he has been a great addition. He is always willing to step up and has shown the staff what it takes to make lemonade out of lemons.
