SCS, along with other organizations state-wide, is experiencing internet and phone connectivity issues. If you cannot reach a building office by phone, please try sending an email. Responses will come as service allows. Thank you for your patience.
As part of our partnership with Ionia County Health Department Substance Abuse Initiative, we are handing out free marijuana-storage lock-boxes to parents to help prevent underage access to products that contain THC. These boxes are available in the JSH office. We will also have these available at JSH events.
Due to the Cross Country Invitational tomorrow, 08.28, Otto Laabs Lane will be closed at 3pm between Mill Street and the Football parking lot. If you are parked in the back lot, during the day, please move to the front lot before 3pm. Parents picking up JSH students will still be able to exit, but incoming traffic will be stopped at 3:00 PM.
All volleyball traffic is also asked to use the front lot.
Thankyou for your help as we work to create the smoothest experience possible for all athletes and families.

SCS Community: We have been incredibly blessed with a tremendous amount of support from our community and neighboring communities. Counseling support offers have been pouring in from area schools and counseling providers along with food and drink donations from our local businesses.
Parents, thank you for your flexibility and support; we couldn't get through days like today without you. There were a lot of decisions to be made over the weekend and a lot of unknowns at the time. We graciously appreciate that you supported us with making sure the needs of our students were put first.
Your SCS Administration and Staff are honored to work in this community and serve your students.
