Lady Jacket senior volleyball players Sayde Crouse, Skylar Sterritt and Sydney Miller were honored last week during Senior Night at Yellowjacket Arena. Sheridan wrapped up its season this week. Congratulations to these seniors for all they’ve accomplished on and off the court, and thank you for representing Sheridan so well throughout your high school careers. We can’t wait to see what great things you’ll achieve next!

Check out the designs for the proposed new East End Elementary School and the multi-purpose covered practice pavilion in Sheridan! (Since these are preliminary architect renderings, minor details could change as plans are finalized.)
These enhancements are part of the upcoming nine-year millage extension on the ballot November 18. The district’s millage rate will remain at 36 mills whether the plan passes or not, but without approval, funding won’t be available to complete these projects. If the extension passes, these plans will become a reality for our students and community.

THROWBACK THURSDAY
In 1957, patrons of the Sheridan School District were paying a 45-mill tax, a portion of which financed a $400,000 building program. At that time, a new elementary building was under construction on the site of the old Missionary Baptist College. A fine arts building – which now houses the district’s technology department – was also being built just southwest of the district’s 1913 building and the old McKenzie Hall.
The new elementary building was completed in 1958 and consisted of four brick units with 24 classrooms. Each unit contained six rooms, and the units were connected by “porches.” An office building for the principal, Mrs. Lee Harris, also included a health department headed by Mrs. Miles F. Kelly. Sheridan Elementary School students moved into the new building in April 1958.
Over the years, this structure has served many purposes – including as the “Freshman Academy” – and today it is home to the district’s Alternative Learning Academy.
Pictured are the Sheridan elementary faculty members in 1956. The photo and some of the information for the post are from “SHS: The first 100 years, 1879-1979” by Elwin L. Goolsby and Bobbie Nelson Graves.

THROWBACK THURSDAY
The words to the Sheridan High School alma mater were written by Betty Sue and Russell Harris about 1946-47 and were originally sung to the melody of "America the Beautiful" until the mid-1950s. Though most Sheridan students and alumni know the first verse -- which is often sung at ballgames, pep rallies, etc. -- the song actually has second, lesser-known verse as well.
