*Be A Senator’s character focus for September is Responsibility. At SHS, students show responsibility by arriving to school on time, every day.  Take 10 minutes before bedtime to get ready for the next day by packing your book bag,  selecting your outfit, and setting everything you need for school in one location. Also, be sure to get at least 8 hours of sleep.  Being rested and prepared in the morning will eliminate morning stress and make it easier to get to school on time. Have a great week from Be A Senator.
