Friendship Dance
The CRU celebrated the start of the 2023-2024 school year with the annual Friendship Dance. Every year, seniors dress in wacky neon clothes and accessories, while underclassmen represent the SHDHS colors: red, navy blue, and white. The Student Council organizes this fun, casual dance as a way for everyone to reconnect with old friends and make new ones. We hope everyone who attended had a great time!

Classroom Showcase/Club News
ASL (American Sign Language) In Use
ASL has been in full swing for just two weeks, learning vocabulary and putting together sentences. I am thrilled to report that one of our lovely students has already been able to use her communication skills at her job! She had a Deaf customer come in, and she was able to introduce herself with recent vocabulary. Seeing our students working on their new knowledge and language is excellent.
