A Message from Mr. Goral about PROM
A Message from Mr. Goral
The PROM experience can quickly be overshadowed by tragedy with one mistake or bad choice.  Parents talk with your teens, listen to how they feel. Talk about any potential worries or fears, along with what they’re most looking forward to. 
 
Tips For a Safe Prom:
1. Communicate expectations 
2. Set and maintain curfews
3. Have, know and stick to the plan
 
Special Note:
Due to the forecast, April 13 prom is being postponed until next Saturday, April 20. Further details pertaining to the rescheduling will be shared on Monday. The safety of our students is our number one priority.
Job Fair on April 18
Job Fair for 11th & 12th Graders
Is your child looking for summer employment or a full time job for after high school? This is the opportunity!

We will be taking a bus to UW-Sheboygan on April 18 for a job fair that includes over 65 area employers. Students must register and sign up in the counseling office.
Within and Beyond the Classroom
 
RoboRiot
Combining the excitement of sport with the rigors of science and technology.
We call FIRST Robotics Competition the ultimate Sport for the Mind. High-school student participants call it “the hardest fun you’ll ever have.”
Under strict rules, limited resources, and an intense six-week time limit, Robo Riot 3418 students are challenged to raise funds, design a team “brand,” hone teamwork skills, and build and program industrial-size robots to play a difficult field game against like-minded competitors. It’s as close to real-world engineering as a student can get. Volunteer professional mentors lend their time and talents to guide each team.  This year after a very slow start at 45th place the team fought back to 24th place and were picked by the 3rd ranked team. We made it to the quarterfinals into the semifinals but we just couldn’t get ownership of the switch in the semi’s so that was the end of our season.
Please visit our website.
We would like to thank our major sponsors! Kohler Co. Curt Joa Inc., Vollrath, Sargento, Sheboygan Falls School District.
The team consists of students from the following schools.  Sheboygan Falls, Plymouth, Sheboygan South, Sheboygan Lutheran, Sheboygan County Christian High, Etude Charter and Homeschool

Explore Your Future Experience
All 10th graders recently attended an event called Explore Your Future at Lakeshore Technical College. All students participated in sessions to learn more about their personality traits and connections to careers, work-based learning opportunities, social media best practices and how to make a good first impression.
 
 
Culinary 3
Student chefs from Culinary Arts 3 classes visited Lake Orchard Hydroponics on Lakeshore Drive in Sheboygan. Students fabricated Tilapia and toured the facility where they grow the fish and plants. They were able to take their Tilapia back to class where they prepared the fish three different ways and thought they were delicious! A big thank you to Lake Orchard for the tour and information.
 
FBLA at State!

Great work, FBLA, and good luck to Sam when she competes in Baltimore this summer!
