We’re excited to introduce Lauren Summers, our new 6th Grade Math Teacher at Staunton Junior High!
Ms. Summers is a graduate of Illinois State University, where she earned her bachelor’s degree in Middle School Education. This year marks Lauren’s first year of teaching, and she is excited to begin this new journey with our students.
She is especially looking forward to getting to know her students, building relationships, and growing alongside them throughout the school year.
We're thrilled to have Ms. Summers join Staunton Jr. High! 🎉📐✏️

Beginning the morning of Friday, September 4th, bricks from the old high school building will be available for pickup in the north high school parking lot. Bricks will be available on a first-come, first-served basis while supplies last.
Because the quantity is limited, we respectfully ask that each person take only a few bricks so that as many community members as possible have an opportunity to receive one.
Those taking bricks may make a donation to the Staunton Education Foundation if they wish; however, donations are completely optional.

Parking is on a first come first serve basis. Please come to the library in the high school to purchase your pass. You can only purchase YOUR pass and must sign your own parking permit agreement. Please bring exact cash or check. NO CREDIT CARDS.
