What an honor to have a student recognized at the Illinois State Capitol!
The Illinois House of Representatives passed a House Resolution, HR 0882, sponsored by Representative Wayne A. Rosenthal, congratulating Molly on her National FFA Proficiency award and continued success.
The resolution states, “Molly McCalla’s accomplishments highlight the critical role of youth leadership in advancing agricultural innovation, sustainability, and stewardship, which are essential to Illinois’ multibillion-dollar agricultural economy.”
Molly, way to LEAD, CHALLENGE, and ACHIEVE!
Congratulations to Betsabet Cazares!

Our Class of 2026 has left their mark! They were allowed to sign a wall. They can take pictures in front of it at graduation and their names will go down with the building as the last graduating class to walk these hallways. Our 2 retiring teachers, Mr. Redfern and Mrs. Johnston also signed the wall. #Classof2026

Dear Staunton CUSD #6 Families,
Due to the forecasted severe weather expected to move into our area this afternoon, all Staunton School District schools will dismiss early today (4/27/2026) at 1:30 PM. There will be no afternoon Preschool Classes.
This decision was made out of an abundance of caution to ensure the safety of our students and staff. All after-school activities and events scheduled for today are canceled.
We encourage families to review the latest weather forecast from the National Weather Service:

Please make any necessary arrangements for student pick-up or supervision following the early dismissal.
Thank you for your understanding and cooperation as we prioritize the safety of our school community.
On Wednesday, the junior class was able to visit the Holocaust Museum in St. Louis, courtesy of the Education Foundation. They worked through an Impact Lab, learning about how to recognize bias and prejudice and how to navigate those situations in life as well as a self-guided tour through the exhibit museum.

STEM club's theme this year was aviation. To end the year we visited the St Louis Regional Airport as well as West Star Aviation. We had the unique opportunity for the bus to be escorted onto the runway to learn about the markings and lighting. We also learned about their fire truck, air traffic control, and all of the dynamics that West Star can utilize to customize planes. It was a great trip, and we are very grateful to them for this experience.

STAUNTON, IL – Staunton High School is proud to announce that its industrial arts program has been awarded a $500 grant from the Southern Illinois Builders Association (SIBA). This generous funding is earmarked for the purchase of an impact driver and drill set, along with essential sheet metal supplies to enhance hands-on learning opportunities for students. By integrating these tools and supplies into the curriculum, the shop classes continue to bridge the gap between classroom instruction and real-world trade applications. The district extends its sincere gratitude to SIBA for their investment in the next generation of skilled laborers and for supporting the vocational growth of Staunton’s students. Pictured here is SHS teacher Spencer Laughlin and Educational Services Administrator Steve Moore.
