SHS Building Trades students recently attended the "I—Build Expo" in Kansas City. This career fair, sponsored by some of the biggest trade employers in the area, encourages students to think of a future in a wide variety of skilled labor. Students had access to all of the major trade unions, could participate in hands-on learning, and talked to pros about their jobs. Our students are shown many paths for their futures. #WeAreSR3 #SR3Family

Congratulations to the Savannah High School Bands on fantastic performances this week at the MSHSAA State Large Ensemble Contest! The Concert Band, under the direction of Austin Bressman, received a rating of "Exemplary", which is a Silver rating.

Both groups performed for four adjudicators at Platte County High School on Tuesday, April 2, after a 10-day break from rehearsals due to Spring Break! Way to go, SHS Bands! #WeAreSR3

Several of Ms. Bretz's students wanted to celebrate our freshman who placed 3rd at State wrestling, so they threw him a surprise donut party! This is what makes SAVANNAH KIDS the best kind of kids. 😉 🖤💛 #WeAreSR3 #SR3Family

Every February, our Middle Schoolers are given the opportunity to go on a Blind 😍 Date...with a book! Our Librarian pulls books off the shelf, wraps them up, and puts descriptive words about the book on the front. Students look for descriptors that interest them and check them out (without being able to judge the book by its cover 😉). While they read the book, they fill out a recommendation sheet. When they've finished the book, they turn in the recommendation with what they rate the book, one to five stars. All the top-rated books are then displayed for others to check out! It's really a lot of fun! #WeAreSR3 #SR3Family

Last week, our Building Trades Class teamed up with members of the Electricians Local 545 to learn through hands-on experience doing rough-in wiring on our project house. Students pulled runs of wire all day long, climbed in the crawlspace and attic, and worked getting the house closer to completion. They learned a lot, and we are so grateful that these pros gave their own time to help our students improve their skills. #SR3Family #WeAreSR3

All SR3 campuses will be CLOSED on Monday for Presidents' Day. Enjoy the long weekend!

What a game! We ❤️ our Chiefs, but SR3 will be IN SESSION on Wednesday. If you plan to take your child to the parade, please be sure to call in the absence before 9 am.

Don't forget, there's no school tomorrow due to staff professional development.

When you love KC, but your boss is a Niners fan... #SavageShoutOut to the Middle School Kitchen ladies for serving up these Kelce-Approved treats! Here's to a great weekend, no matter who you're rooting for. #WeAreSR3 #SR3Family

🏟️ Got Superbowl plans🏉? Good news: Students are out of school on Monday! 🎉 Enjoy your long weekend! (Sorry about your luck SR3 staffers 🤭)

Just a reminder: if you're considering sending your student something for Valentine's Day, balloons, giant stuffed animals, and glass vases are not allowed on the school bus. Your child will be allowed to ride, but their gift will have to stay behind.

Our bus routes have been updated to include any new riders or ridership changes for the second semester. Updated routes can be found on our website or on the Durham Bus Tracker App. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1r62Xca0QQK6NeJ7agx85cCPSEm-iVh0R/edit?usp=sharing&ouid=118404636996445672183&rtpof=true&sd=true

All Savannah R3 buses will resume normal routes tomorrow, January 31st. See our website for route information or check the Durham Bus Tracker App. If you have questions about the routes please contact Durham Bus Company.

All Savannah R3 buses will start the week on Alternate Routes due to road conditions. We are hoping to resume regular routes soon. Parents and Guardians will be notified when there's a change. For now, all SR3 buses will remain on alternate routes.
