2020 Graduation exercises will be Sunday May 17, 2020 at 1:00 PM on the football field. We are working on facilitating livestream access to the ceremony and a possible FM radio transmission. Additionally, the ceremony will be heard over the football field loudspeaker system. Immediately following the graduation ceremony there will be a Parade of Seniors through town that will be along our traditional Homecoming parade route. If you miss the livestream we will have a recorded version available on our website after the ceremony. If the weather is inclement, Graduation will be held in the high school parking lot with the Seniors in their automobiles participating in the ceremonies via a live feed with the parade to follow. We have been asked that in order to provide the safest environment the guests attending the graduation ceremony please follow the Governor’s directives for social distancing.

For those utilizing the free lunch program! We have had quite a few people not show up to pick up their meals. If you know you will not be picking up a meal, please call and notify us by 8am that day if possible. If you notify us after 9 am your meal will be placed in the refrigerator for pick up. If it's not picked up that day it will remain in the cooler until the following day for pick up. If you do not pick up your meal for 2 consecutive days without notifying the school, we will have to drop you from the list. If you call the school and notify us of any problems for why you cannot pick up your meals, but still want to receive them we will be happy to work with you. Just please let us know. Thank you.

"On April 27,2020 the Board of Trustees voted to keep Sweet Grass County High School closed for the remainder of the academic year. We will continue with our remote education for the duration. This was a difficult decision, but we will continue to do everything in our power to best meet the educational needs of the students we serve.

The Drivers Ed classes that start on April 30th have been postponed until further notice.

A Message from the MHSA Executive Director: Because of the previous MHSA Board action, resumption of spring activities depended on our student’s ability to return to in-person instruction without restrictions by May 4th and if in-person instruction didn’t resume by that time without restrictions, spring activities would be cancelled.The spring 2020 activity season is cancelled due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic which is affecting communities across our country. We look forward to the resumption of high school activities during the 2020-2021 school year with some level of normalcy. Our office will be entirely focused on contingency plans for the 2020 fall season and beyond, should they be needed.

We just want to give a shout out to our kitchen staff for the amazing work they have done to provide breakfast and lunch to those kids who need it! They are truly appreciated!!

Starting tomorrow, April 16th the breakfast and lunch meal pickup time is changing. You can pickup your meals at the high school kitchen door between noon and 1:00pm. Thank you!

The MHSA Executive Board, during a conference call to conduct Association business on Thursday morning, took the following action regarding MHSA Spring Activities: All MHSA spring activities will be suspended through April 24th. This includes practices and contests/meet/festivals. Resumption of spring activities will depend on our student’s ability to return to in-person instruction by May 4th. If in-person instruction doesn’t resume by that time, spring activities will be cancelled. We take seriously the directives from the Governor, State Health Department and CDC for the safety of our students and for their communities. Their safety is our top priority during these challenging times. If spring activities are resumed, the practice requirement for sports at that time will be five practices from resumption except for golf which will be the normal two practices required. If spring activities are resumed, post season formats will be adjusted by the MHSA with Executive Board approval.

The Governor has extended the school closure until April 24th. Please remember to keep checking online for your assignments as school is still in session. Have a wonderful Easter break and we will meet you back online on Tuesday the 14th!
