SLCS District Update
June 2nd, 2022
Superintendent's Update
Dear SLCS Families and Staff Members,
Tomorrow is the last day of school for our seniors who will soon be joining a distinguished class of SLCS alumni. On behalf of the entire community, I want to offer “Congratulations!” and “Best Wishes!” to the members of the Class of 2022 and their families.
Seniors from both SLHS and SLEHS have upheld the tradition of excellence associated with our district through their many accomplishments in the areas of academics, athletics, and the arts.
Through their many accomplishments, our seniors have represented themselves, their families, schools, and community with distinction throughout their time in SLCS. On June 11th, members of the Class of 2022 will enter the USA Hockey Arena in Plymouth as high school seniors and leave as high school graduates. May they forever wear the label of SLCS alumni with honor, dignity, and pride.
As the graduates look back over their school career, may these past two years serve as an example that no challenge is too great to overcome. They will move on from SLCS with the knowledge, skills, and confidence necessary to meet the promising future for which they are destined. May each of you make a positive difference in your piece of the world!
Congratulations Class of 2022!
SLCS Grads!
Steve Archibald
Superintendent

Career Programming
Recently all SLCS 8th grade students worked with Community Financial Credit Union leaders and were given careers and budgeting experience. The students had to visit multiple stations to make deductions for housing, transportation, utilities, and many other items including student loan and credit card debt.
They definitely learned how tough it can be to budget. Some of the comments included:
"I will NEVER have kids or a spouse they are too expensive "
"I think I need to seriously reevaluate my priorities or my career plan"
"Well there goes my plans for a boat"
It appears the students got a needed "reality check" before heading to high school!
2022-23 School Calendar
As a reminder, the 2022-2023 school calendar is included as part of the teacher negotiation process. It will be shared with the community upon completion of negotiations.

In 1955 a new high school was built. That school is now Bartlett Elementary.
