Members of the SCA Bocce team attended a youth summit where different schools participated in team bonding activities. The Tigers are ready for a fun season!
A new club has been added to the SCA atmosphere. Mrs. Long and Ms. Guffey fronted the move to create a Forensics Club. This speech and debate club seeks to provide students with the ability to develop critical thinking skills, writing skills, and presentation skills. Students are taught to engage in civil discussion and learn to understand both sides of an argument. Analytical and public speaking skills will be put to the ultimate test. The first event is scheduled for October 26th. Pictured are the club's officers.

The 2025 Senior class organized a Senior Sunrise this morning! They met at the football field and ate pancakes, bacon, and doughnuts while they watched the sun rise. It was a great opportunity for the Seniors to get together and celebrate their last year of high school! In the spring, they are going to hold a Senior Sunset to symbolize their Senior year coming to a close. πβοΈπ

A brief message from the Food Service Department: Reminder to families in the district regarding Milk sales. If a student desires to purchase an individual Milk, they must have a positive balance in their school lunch account. The reason for this is that individual Milk sales do not fall under the Free and Reduced pricing structure. Milk is included in the meal cost, but only as a component of a complete meal. The cost for each milk sold separately is $0.50. We will not turn a student away from obtaining a milk, as it is vital to growth and development. They are, however, subject to a la carte pricing. If you have questions or need more information, please contact me, John Rosselli, at 570-356-3457 or email me at jrosselli@scasd.us. Thank you!
The Class of 2027 hosted a "Tape the Principal to the Wall" at Friday's Pep Rally. Thank you to the Principals and everyone who participated. The class raised $454 towards Prom 2026!
