This week in athletics, updated.
Due to a winter storm watch issued by the National Weather Service, all District Five Schools and offices will be closed on Friday, January 10. ❄️ Friday, January 10 will be an e-Learning day for all District Five students. 💻 This decision was made in the best interest of safety for all D5 students and staff, as snow, sleet and ice is predicted by late Friday morning, and roads will likely be unsafe for buses, families or student drivers to travel 🚌❄️🚗
Teachers will be in touch with students regarding all e-Learning assignments 📚📝. All after school and weekend activities are also canceled.📆
We appreciate your patience and understanding, as safety is always our top priority in District Five! #WeAreD5
Miss Souvenirs was postponed from Nov. 16, 2024 to March 22, 2025. Any students still interested in participation in Miss Byrnes or Miss Souvenirs should contact Mrs. Kelsey Grant.

**Please enter your PERSONAL EMAIL ADDRESS when completing the form**
There will be 2 sessions offered for the January 3, 2025 Career Immersion Day:
The morning session will be from 8:00am-12:00pm and is focused on Peri-Operative career fields (careers working with patients before, during, and after surgery).
The afternoon session will be from 1:00pm-5:00pm and is focused on Acute Care career fields (variety of healthcare careers - Ex: Respiratory Therapy, Physical Therapy, Speech Therapy, Occupational Therapy, etc.).
The sign-up form will accept submissions until December 16, 2024.

Students will receive notification if they are selected by December 20, 2024 from SRHS.
If not selected, students will receive notification of upcoming Career Immersion Days. Additional sessions will be offered by SRHS during Spring Break.
Career Immersion Days were created to expand the number of outreach opportunities to students as they explore healthcare careers to build the pipeline of future healthcare workers. These days will follow a group model versus individual shadowing opportunities to allow for a more meaningful experience and to accommodate more students.
