SJHS Blog Week 1

9/4/18 - 9/7/18

2018-2019 - Welcome Back!!

Wow!!  We are back in school, summer seems to go by faster and faster each year.  
I’m thinking it’s because we live in such a great community. Our first day at school
went very well with our modified schedule in the morning to get all the busy work
out of the way for students and then shortened classes in the afternoon.  
Please do not hesitate to reach out and contact us here at SJHS if we can
be of assistance with regards to your student. We are looking forward to a great year!

Best,

Mr. Blomgren
