Three SHS Students Doing the Right Thing: ​On Tuesday night, November 1, our SHS principal was driving from the high school to the middle school when he observed three high school students drop their backpacks and hustle into the road to help a motorist who had run out of gas. They pushed the car through the intersection and into the middle school parking lot. "It's gratifying to see our kids do the right thing just because they are positioned to be of help," said Mr. Harklerode.
