A Message from the Principals
Dear SFHS Falcon Families,
As we near the end of Quarter 3, I would like to thank the entire SFHS school community for their support. We would not have the success that we enjoy here if it weren’t for our supportive parents and families. In terms of Quarter 4, we will be having our state-mandated PreACT Secure (April 3rd) and Forward testing (week of April 8th) for our 9th and 10th graders. We have already completed the 11th grade testing, the ACT, in mid-March.
It is extremely important that our students participate fully in the testing process. We really appreciate your help in getting through this very busy time of the year. Please also help us ensure classroom success for the remainder of the school year by assisting your student with their day-to-day academic work. As always, we thank you for your support and encouragement!
Go Falcons!
Kevin Krutzik, SFHS Principal

The School District of Sheboygan Falls will start following the same guidelines for COVID-19 as we do for influenza and other viruses.
