Five Saints punch their tickets to Ford Field and get the honors of being state qualifiers, a school record! Prior to this, we have had eight state qualifiers total since the resurrection of the program. We're here to stay . Congratulations to Caleb Kuretich, David Alley, Zachary Drugach, Cristian Haslem, and Nate Postma! The Langmesser brothers had solid seasons, coming up just short. Lastly, what a career by our guy Stevie Neiman; he's been a heck of a wrestler, captain, and teammate. Can't wait to see what else he accomplishes going forward.

In an effort to maintain security and ensure a smooth operation within our building, we kindly ask that you refrain from using delivery services to bring food to the high school. We have observed that the frequent arrival of delivery personnel is causing disruptions and potential security concerns.

To help us manage this situation effectively, we request that all food be brought from home or purchased through the school’s designated food service options. Your cooperation in this matter is greatly appreciated as we work to keep our school environment safe and secure for everyone.

Thank you for your understanding and support.

Just a reminder that the front loop off Clinton is only for busses. Please use the back athletic lot for student drop off!!
