SSD to Host Education Endowment Gala and Two Ribbon Cutting Ceremonies

The Sheridan School District will celebrate the opening of the much-anticipated Sheridan High School addition and East End Middle School this July with its First Annual Education Endowment Gala and two ribbon cutting ceremonies.

The gala will be the first of the three events and will be held on Saturday, July 27 at Sheridan High School to launch the Sheridan School District Endowment.

“The gala will be a very special occasion,” said Sheridan Superintendent Jerrod Williams. “All proceeds from the event will go to the Sheridan School District Endowment. The endowment fund will be used to provide scholarships for Sheridan High School graduates and other educational purposes of the Sheridan School District.”

Guests will be taken on the first set of tours of the completed Sheridan High School addition, including the Yellowjacket Arena and Kohler Academy. Guests will also enjoy an elegant dinner and live music by the local band, Exit 123.

After the gala, the Sheridan School District will continue the excitement and festivities over the next two days with two ribbon cutting ceremonies: one for East End Middle School on July 28 and another for the Sheridan High School addition on July 29.
