As we approach the end of the school year, I would like to take this opportunity to reflect on the remarkable achievements and learning that our students have experienced over the past nine months. 

We had several students top the 1400 mark on their SAT’s.  Our Science Iditarod team placed first at the Bloomsburg University competition.  We have students who will be furthering their education at Universities such as Penn, Temple, Villanova and Colgate.  We started an Elementary Student Council and had another successful Science Fair Competition at the Elementary School.  We had a swimmer win two gold medals and a diver win a bronze medal at the PIAA Swimming and Diving State Championships.  We had several track athletes qualify for the PIAA Track and Field State Championships.  Our band, orchestra and chorus all put on stellar performances at their concerts in both the Winter and Spring.  And our Musical, Les Miserables, was Broadway-like as always.  Each and every day, our students are growing and maximizing their individual potential.

I would also like to recognize our dedicated and talented staff members who support our students and make all of these opportunities possible.  It is through their work that a strong foundation is being built.  Their guidance to our students toward making positive choices and behaviors is greatly appreciated.

Finally, I would like to personally congratulate the Class of 2019 who will walk across the stage on June 13.  I am confident that our graduates will leave Shamokin Area well-prepared for life.  Regardless of what your next step will be, I hope each of you tackle the challenges that lie ahead with enthusiasm, courage, and a sense of purpose.  Make Shamokin Area proud because we are proud of you!
