The federal Families First Coronavirus Response Act of 2020 provides temporary benefits to families of school-aged children who would receive free or reduced-priced meals if school was in session. Families that receive SNAP or TANF should have already received benefits issued to their EBT card. If not, please submit an inquiry to https:..www.emergencymealssurvey.com/PA for information. All others should receive their cards by the end of July.

Attention 9th-11th Graders and Parents/Guardians - Our annual Recognition Day was unfortunately canceled due to the shutdown of school this past March. The Junior Class Officers, IT Department, Guidance Counselors, Teachers, and Administrators still wanted to recognize our students for their hard work and efforts from this past year. Even though our recognition program may look different this year, we worked very hard to honor our students! We hope you enjoy our virtual recognition program at the following link: Congratulations to all of our students! **Academic Boosters Club awards will be given out next school year at a date that has yet to be determined. Any student who received an award in the video will have their award mailed to them over the summer. If the award is too heavy, it will be hand delivered!** Have a safe and happy summer! https://5il.co/h0u2 -Mrs. Blair

Good evening to the Sharon High Class of 2020. These are a few reminders you need to be aware of: Senior drop off for packets will be Thursday, May 21st from 8am until 3pm. A bin will be placed in the commons area for drop off. All packets must have your name on the outside of the envelope. Make sure that each assignment has your name and the teachers name so we can get it to the correct teacher for grading. Once you drop your packets you will proceed to clean out your locker. All students must wear gloves and masks. Both will be provided unless you prefer to use your own. If necessary, we may limit building access to comply with current social distancing regulations. Upon leaving with your materials you will also be provided with your caps, gowns and honor cords for graduation. Instructions regarding our plans for graduation will be provided shortly. Other items you may have at home or in your locker can be returned to your teachers at this time. Textbooks and materials should be left outside of the teachers classroom. Your name should be on the returned items so the teacher knows who returned it. Thank you.
