Seniors

Single Hero

Group of students gather for Senior Sunrise event on the football field; sunrise taking place behind them!

Senior rah! Senior rah! Rah-rah, Senior! Senior year at Sidney High School is filled with traditions and special events. 

Yellow Jacket Senior Life

Senior year starts off with the Senior Sunrise, a morning where senior students come together before the start of the new school year to greet each other and watch the sunrise. It's symbolic of the start of the final chapter at Sidney City Schools. 

Of course, there are the traditional milestone events throughout the year like homecoming and prom, those final band, choir, orchestra concerts, and senior nights for various sports and clubs. 

The school year ends with a variety of other traditions like Baccalaureate, senior picnic, graduation practice, clap out, and painting "The Wall." 

The culminating event, of course, is graduation day. 

Below you will find a schedule of senior events, however, we recommend you follow the instagram accounts on this page to ensure you don't miss other important senior events!
