language arts (ELA), mathematics and science based on the Content Standards

and Objectives (CSOs). Students from grades 9-11 at SHHS were tested in both

Performance Task. The CAT is based on student responses and the computer

adjusts the difficulty of questions throughout the assessment. The Performance

Task is an extended activity used to better measure capacities such as depth of

understanding, research skills, and complex analysis.

50th Commencement Ceremonies to be held Friday, May 29 at 7 pm

Desiderata Go placidly amid the noise and the haste, and remember what peace there may be in silence.

As far as possible, without surrender, be on good terms with all persons.

Speak your truth quietly and clearly; and listen to others, even to the dull and ignorant; they

too have their story.

Avoid loud and aggressive persons; they are vexatious to the spirit. If you compare yourself

with others, you may become vain or bitter, for always there will be greater and lesser persons

than yourself.

Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans. Keep interested in your own career, however

humble; it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time.

Exercise caution in your business affairs, for the world is full of trickery. But let this not blind

you to what virtue there is; many persons strive for high ideals, and everywhere life is full of

heroism.

Be yourself. Especially, do not feign affection. Neither be cynical about love; for in the face of

all aridity and disenchantment, it is as perennial as the grass.

Take kindly the counsel of the years, gracefully surrendering the things of youth.

Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune. But do not distress yourself with

dark imaginings. Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness.

Beyond a wholesome discipline, be gentle with yourself. You are a child of the universe no

less than the trees and the stars; you have a right to be here.

And whether or not it is clear to you, no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should. Therefore

be at peace with God, whatever you conceive Him to be.

And whatever your labors and aspirations, in the noisy confusion of life, keep peace in your

soul. With all its sham, drudgery and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world. Be cheerful.

Strive to be happy. Max Ehrmann
