Just a reminder that Sullivan Schools will not be in session on Monday, January 15, in honor of Martin Luther King, Jr.
We appreciate the understanding and support of our parents and community as we made adjustments for unforeseen circumstances. While the loss of power for a portion of the school day today certainly changed some teacher and student plans, it was neat to see the students learning in this environment. While technology has improved many aspects of education, several of our students enjoyed laying on the floor and reading books with their flashlights for a portion of the afternoon. Thanks to our school staff for making numerous adjustments throughout the day. We are fortunate to have such an amazing staff!
We did also want to relay that an incident was reported to high school office staff regarding safety today. Fortunately, it was determined that there was no threat to student safety, and the issue was quickly resolved.
Thanks for your continued support of Sullivan Schools, and a huge shout out to the City of Sullivan for their exceptional communication and hard work restoring power in a timely manner!
Today, the 6th grade choir was excited to be invited to sing at the Sullivan Senior Center! Students were able to sing holiday songs with those in attendance, as well as talk with them, give them handmade Christmas cards and pose for a picture with Santa!!!

It's been an all around big week for students at SHS! Members of our FFA chapter traveled to Indianapolis for the 96th Annual National FFA Convention. We joined nearly 70,000 members & guests for general sessions and workshops on leadership, visited with leading colleges and agribusinesses in the career expo, and toured the National FFA Center. Of course, we also had some time to bond as a chapter at the rodeo and for an evening at Topgolf. Thank you to our FFA Alumni for sponsoring such an impactful trip for our students!
