Beautiful weather for our baseball and softball Senior Night. Congrats to all our Seniors and thanks to Nicholas Monahan for playing the National Anthem this evening 2x!
Students visited the Holocaust Museum today. They told us that this was one of the best-behaved school groups they have had. Students participated in a variety of conversations as well as learning about local survivors.
We have TWO IBCA Junior High Coaches of the Year!!
Mr. Josh Clark and Ms. Jen Abert have gotten some well-deserved recognition for their successful basketball seasons this year by being chosen as Coach of the Year by the Illinois Basketball Coaching Association. With a 7th Grade State Championship and an 8th Grade 3rd Place finish, it'll definitely be a season we won't soon forget. 🏀
Congratulations Coaches Clark and Abert!

If you would like to know more about the Holocaust survivors who visited the high school and spoke to the students, please read the books listed below.
Holocaust Remembrance Day was April 24th. This week, our high school students were able to listen to, meet, and interact with two child survivors of the Holocaust. We would like to thank the Education Foundation for making this possible. This is the last generation of students who will have this opportunity. #LeadChallengeAchieve.

Below is the letter that was given to Seniors today.
April 25, 2025
Dear Seniors,
Your high school education will conclude with graduation on Sunday, May 18th at 2:00 PM in the gym. We are proud to have been associated with you during your education at Staunton High School. We want to make graduation a dignified occasion for you, your family, and relatives. It is important that you assist us in making this event a serious and formal occasion.
There has been a trend in many high schools to create disruptions during graduation exercises. An appropriate celebration (confetti, etc.) after graduation is acceptable. However, disruptions during exercises could interfere with the individual recognition of each graduate. Please make sure any celebration is at the proper time in an appropriate manner.
Since students are not required to attend graduation to receive their diploma, we do ask that you conform to our requests. Caps and gowns will be worn for the ceremony. Please dress appropriately with your cap and gown (dress shoes, dress pants, etc). There will be no wearing of inappropriate items or any alterations of approved graduation apparel (lettering on caps and gowns, etc.). If you have additional questions, please stop by the high school office. Any student in violation of these rules will not be allowed to participate in the graduation ceremony. If you have a handicapped member in your family, we ask that you contact the school and let us know so we can reserve a seat for them at graduation. You MUST call the office by Tuesday, May 13th.
Listed below is a schedule of events for graduation day.
Sincerely,
Carrie J. Griffith
Principal
