The purpose of this email is to share information regarding Steubenville High School. It is a monthly newsletter featuring Big Red news and current events.

Pride of the Valley

Greetings, Parents and Families of Steubenville High School,

I am so proud of our students and staff! We’ve had a wonderful start to the 2023-2024 school year. I greatly appreciate all you’ve done to contribute to the positive and productive start. Our staff has worked very hard preparing for the opening of the school, and they have done an excellent job. Along the same lines, our students have done an outstanding job learning and meeting expectations while developing routines that can translate to a year of increased student achievement. To be sure, we are excited about the possibilities this year holds.  

Dismissal

Our school day ends at 2:30 p.m. We encourage parents to pick up their child on Logan Street around 2:35 p.m. This gives your child enough time to go to their locker after school. If you arrive before your child is out of the building, we will ask you to drive around the loop. We have to keep the traffic flow moving smoothly at all times.   

I will continue to send out reminders in the monthly school newsletter throughout the year. Please remember that my staff and I are here to serve our families and students. I am always available and look forward to building a solid relationship with you and your child. Please know that the faculty and staff at Steubenville High School are always here to help your child(ren) have the best possible experience. 

We are humbled and grateful for the opportunity to educate your child(ren). It is truly an honor that we take very seriously.

Thank you for your constant support, and as always...GO BIG RED!

Sincerely,

Mr. Gorman

2023 Homecoming Spirit Week

The cost is $1 to participate. Students can pay at the door for a picture when you are called to the gym.  

This annual tradition supports our Homecoming activities and our queen candidates.

We want to invite you to the SHS Homecoming Activities.

Our homecoming game is Friday, September 8. The theme this year is WE LOVE BIG RED! (Everything is all red and black). We are excited to see all the floats, kids dressed up, and listening to the Best Band in Buckeye Land! This is a wonderful community event.

Pep Rally

We plan to have our Pep Rally on 4th Street in front of the high school on September 8, beginning at 1:30 p.m. We plan on barricading 4th Street from Logan Street to the old Dock Street. The SHS and Wells students will join the SHS cheerleaders and SHS Band at the Pep Rally around 1:45 pm.

Tailgate and Parade

We plan to have our tailgate and parade again this year, starting at Belleview Park around 4:30 p.m. We will give away Hotdogs, chips, and water to anyone in attendance. In addition, we have Homecoming t-shirts to give away (while supplies last).

Congratulations to the Steubenville High School 2023 Homecoming Court!
