Today was the big day, South Summit School District participated in The Great Utah Shakeout drill. We hope you did too so you know what to do when the big one hits. #WeAreSouthSummit #GreatUtahShakeOut #ShakeOutDontFreakOut #BeReadyUtah #DropCoverHold #SchoolSafetyWeek

The South Summit Band continues to hit all the right notes. They received one superior and two excellent ratings at the recent region festival. Unlike high school sports, music festivals are more of a showcase, rather than a competition. Of all the bands from the region that performed, ours had the second highest results and just barely missed the cut to qualify for state. Not that anyone's keeping score. Congratulations high school band! #WeAreSouthSummit #SSHSWildcats #BandRocks

The Golden Hour is drawing nigh and the tradition of the Junior Prom and promenade awaits. We can't wait to see our students all dressed up with someplace to go. #WeAreSouthSummit #SSHSWildcats #ClassOf25 #JuniorProm
