Homecoming Celebration, Fall Fair, and Open House - September 23, 2023
The STS Alumni Association is committed to engaging our strong and vibrant community in one of our most anticipated events of the year - Homecoming!
This STS tradition brings alumni and former faculty/staff and their families together to reconnect and reminisce with the school community on our country campus. It is a time to celebrate and reflect on your days at STS.
A fun-filled day of activities is being planned for the whole family, on Saturday, September 23, 2023. This event also marks a special celebration for class years ending in 3 and 8. Your reunion class reps are connecting with classmates, gathering suggestions, and will keep you informed as plans unfold. Please email your class reps or contact the Advancement Office at STS if you have questions, feedback, or ideas.
Reconnect, reminisce, and come celebrate with us at Homecoming 2023!
