There has been a lot going on at SHS lately! Justin Bush and Nathan Flores had a great showing at the state meet in Austin in CX Debate. One Act Play has advanced out of district and bi-district and are headed to area with quite a few acting awards! So proud of all of our kids how they juggle 47 different things at all times.
District track meet is underway. Special thanks to Mike Richardson and his metal works class for these great discus markers.
#WeAreSundownSmart
Sundown was declared the District 5-2A UIL Champion Runner-up on Friday. We took 48 students on Thursday and they competed like champs! Of those 48, 27 qualified for regionals.
