It is with deep sadness that we share the passing of Ellesse Taylor, who would have been a 9th grader at SHS next school year. Ellesse was such a sweet, young soul. She will be greatly missed by her family, friends, classmates, teachers, and all who had the privilege of knowing her.
During this difficult time, we ask our school community to keep everyone affected in your thoughts and prayers.
To support our students and families, three counselors will be available on Friday, June 12, from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. at the high school office for any student who may need someone to talk to or additional support.
Information regarding arrangements will be shared at a later date as it becomes available.
Please continue to keep Ellesse's loved ones in your hearts as we come together as a community to remember and honor her life.

The Lady Rockets fell to Taylor 11-1 today in a rainy 1A State Championship game. Despite the outcome, this team showed incredible grit, determination, and heart all season long to earn their spot on the biggest stage. Proud of the fight, the memories, and an unforgettable year. Congratulations on a great season, Lady Rockets! π₯π #LadyRockets #StateChampionship #ProudTradition
