It’s Time! 12:30 PM to watch The Pride of the Oil Patch do WORK! Blue collar mentality!
Peek into Mr. Richardson's class at Sundown High School! Hard work is the norm in his class from using an oxy acetylene torch to forging steel, welding, hand engraving and woodshop work! A man of many talents teaching young minds to learn new skills! Keep it up Mr. Rich!

Congratulations to 2023 Sundown High School graduate Seaman Juan Carlos (JC) Camacho. JC recently graduated from Navy Basic Training in Illinois with his family proudly attending. Thank you for your service, Seaman Camacho! Sundown is extremely proud of you! We are grateful for a community of educators that continue to invest in the lives of so many young lives to help them reach their potential!
REMINDER: NO school Monday - Wednesday [Oct. 30 - Nov. 1] to allow staff, students and community members to travel to San Antonio in support of our Band. We will also open up the Auditorium on Tuesday at Noon for the 12:30 PM Performance!
Thursday Football Game now a Home Game for MS & JV [Nov. 2nd]
We have changed our last MS Football Games to a Home Game to be followed by a 5th Quarter (for our 7th Grade). Tahoka only has one team, so we are now going to have a Home Game starting at 5 PM, followed by a 5th Quarter and finish the night with a JV Game to start around 6:30 PM. MS will NOT have a Pep-Rally.
A huge "Thank you” to the Sundown VFD and Sundown Police for agreeing to escort the band out of Sundown Monday morning!
Buses roll at 7:50 am. The kids would love it if you’d join the line up! They love seeing y’all all the way from the baseball field to 385!!! Roughnecks are headed back to State! Bound for San Antonio!
