Even though we all have difficulty with our mental health sometimes, it can be hard for people to talk about their mental health because they might feel embarrassed or ashamed, or they might worry that other people will think badly of them. This is called stigma. Stigma can make it harder to talk to someone when we are struggling with our mental health. However, it is important to talk to someone you trust so that you can get the help and support you deserve to feel your best! Do you have a trusted adult at school you feel comfortable talking to? A teacher, coach, counselor, EA, or office staff? Did you know there is a group called Morgan’s Message here at school that is working to end the stigma of mental health in student athletes and beyond? Follow them on Instagram @morgansmessage_sdhs. Remember to wear green tomorrow to show your support of National Children’s Mental Health Awareness Day.

Seniors, don’t forget to pay your senior dues of twenty dollars to the front office. All debts, including Senior Dues, must be paid prior to graduation! Remember Prom tickets cannot be purchased unless all debt has been paid.
Planning to attend Prom 2026? Prom will be held Saturday, May 16th at the Roland E. Powell Convention Center in Ocean City from 6:00 till 10:30. Tickets are $50 each, cash or check. Before you can buy a prom ticket, you’ll need to complete a Debt Sign Off Form, which are located in the Media Center and the Main Office. You must be debt free from the Main Office, Media Center, and the I.T. Department. All students must bring their SDHS labeled charger AND crayon to the Tech office when getting signed off for I.T. debt.
After you get the Sign Off Form completed DON’T lose it before you go to purchase your ticket. No form. No ticket sale. No exception. There is a mandatory information gathering survey accessed through a QR code in the Debt Sign Off, that must be completed PRIOR to ticket sale. All students that attend SDHS MUST have a Debt Sign Off regardless of grade. If your date is not an SDHS student, they must have an Out of School guest form APPROVED prior to ticket sale. These forms can be found in the Main Office. The turnaround time for approval is typically 2 to 3 school days, so plan accordingly.
All ticket sales will take place in the Square. Ticket sales take place from 7:30 till 8:00 a.m. and from 2:30 till 3:00 p.m. TODAY and Friday this week. Next week, tickets will be sold Monday through Thursday, at the same time periods and location. See the graphic for sale dates and see Mr. Greenwood in H-8 with questions.
Seniors! You have 10 days to submit your senior quote for the yearbook and baby/toddler photo for the graduation pre-show video. Each photographed student is permitted a senior quote which will appear beneath your portrait in the yearbook. Quotes MUST be submitted using the QR code or url link on the flyers. NO quotes will be accepted via schoology or personal email. The form will close on Friday, May 15th at 3:00 pm, so don’t miss the submission window!
Each student is permitted to submit ONE baby/Toddler photo for the video.
