Attention students! This year you will be using your student ID number for all purchases in the cafeteria. If you do not know this number please reach out to a faculty member or a food service associate.
Please note…student parking spots will open to juniors beginning Friday morning. Juniors can drop applications in the Main Office; HOWEVER, we will only accept complete packets. Most likely spots will sell out quickly, so be aware parking is available on a first come, first served basis for applications that are complete. The goal is to have the passes be available for pick-up in Room 237 beginning on Thursday, September 7th.
The South Windsor Dance Team is hosting their fall tryouts for anyone interested in joining our team this year. Even if you do a fall sport, you can still be a part of the team for the winter season. Just attend tryouts on September 6th from 3:15-5:00pm in the Rubber Room and have all necessary sports forms completed and turned in in order to tryout. Contact Coach Foley or any dance team member with questions. Last year we made South Windsor High School history with a 4th place finish in Hip Hop. Will you be a part of the team when we break that record again this year?
