Tiger Nation,

Here is a list of upcoming non-athletic events at Sussex Central High School.

We want our parents and guardians to be fully engaged in the many opportunities and programs available to our students at SCHS, and we want to make sure you are aware of what is happening throughout the school year.

Please take a moment to review the calendar and mark the events that are important to your family. Your involvement and support make a difference!

As additional events are scheduled, we will continue to update the calendar and share those changes with you.

If you have any questions about an event or need additional information, please contact the school at 434-246-6051.

Thank you for your continued support of Sussex Central High School and Tiger Nation!

Tiger Nation!

We want to remind our parents and guardians that HIGH SCHOOL students will be taking their Checkpoint Tests according to the schedule listed below.

We encourage you to talk with your child about the importance of these assessments and remind them to give their very best effort! These tests provide valuable information about what our students know and what they are ready to learn next.

Please help us by encouraging your student to:

Get a good night’s rest.
Arrive at school on time and prepared.
Take their time and read each question carefully.
Give their very best effort!

Let’s continue to work together to support our students and their academic success.

Let’s go, Tigers!
