Souhegan High school is committed to providing the best educational experience at Souhegan High School for students.
As we consider the next 30 years of Souhegan High School we must hold onto the values from the past that are important, stay grounded in the present, lead and educate students for the future.
This effort is part of our commitment to the continual growth and improvement that is necessary in order to meet the evolving needs of young people and is based on the virtue of collaboration, that is, believing the whole is greater than the sum of its parts.
I would like you to join us in a conversation with families that centers on ensuring we are providing the best educational experience we can for all students.
I need your help to understand your feelings, thoughts, insights, and experiences at Souhegan High School. I want our families and community members to share thoughts, opinions and ideas at this meeting.
Please join me on November 16, 2022 at 6:30 pm. This meeting will take place via zoom. The link is below.
As we move forward through the school year we intend to continue the conversation with more narrow topics such as the experience of Division I, Post Graduate Plan, and Senior Project. Later on in the year we will be discussing Advisory and Graduation Requirements.
On Friday December 9, 2022 Souhegan High School will be hosting its annual Career and College Expo. The purpose of this event is to raise awareness and exposure for students and parents of options post-high school, both educational and vocational. The event aims to provide information about a variety of careers, programs, and services available after high school. We are planning a fair/expo style event so students can speak with representatives and gather information about each organization. Some of our current attendees include representatives from: various branches of the armed services, local community colleges, first responder groups, local CTE programs, and area employers. If you are interested in participating as an employer at the Career and College Expo please fill out the Google Form at this link.
BAE Systems is excited to announce their Women in Technology Program is back in person!
WiT gives female and female-identifying high school students with an aptitude in math and science a practical, hands-on opportunity to explore careers in various technical disciplines. It also provides mentorship to the students to encourage and support them in their pursuit of a technical career.
After completing the program, seniors who have been accepted to college with a declared major in engineering are encouraged to apply for a summer internship opportunity at BAE Systems.
The program takes place at BAE Systems locations in Southern NH, beginning on January 17 through May 9. Students will participate on Tuesday afternoons from 3:30 - 5:30 p.m. Please note that this timing is different than in the past, to allow students to attend after school.
Students in grades 11 & 12 from schools within a reasonable driving distance from Southern New Hampshire are welcome to apply for the program through December 6, 2022. Our application is hosted on Tallo: https://app.tallo.com/application/8334/view (note: students will need to create a Tallo profile to apply, this is easy and free and compliant with NH student privacy standards).
You can learn more about Women in Technology on the website: www.baesystems.com/wit. Questions may be directed to our program team via wit.es@baesystems.com or to Laurel Skiff, Pre and Early Career program manager.
