Mr. Tim Wernentin

Welcome to the 2022-2023 school year! We are pleased to inform you all students are returning to school full-time and we will be utilizing our former eight period day with the students' day beginning at 7:40 a.m. and ending at 2:30 p.m.  I encourage you to read the district's updated Return to Learn Plan.

Our mission at Sherrard High School is "to inspire students to think creatively and develop their own vision for the future, prepare students to navigate an ever-changing world, empower students with the skills to develop their own path to success."

High standards and expectations for each student in regard to academic performance, co-curricular participation, and responsible citizenship are the foundation of our school. It is with pride that we hold these high standards and ask each of our students to commit to maintaining the extraordinary record of achievement and contribution that has been the legacy of Sherrard High School students. It is the contribution of our students to our school community that makes Sherrard High School an exceptional learning community. Full participation in academic and co-curricular programs and a willingness to act responsibly as an individual within our educational environment are the factors that enable all to have a successful and enjoyable year.

Together we form a strong partnership to ensure that all Sherrard students receive an exceptional education. I encourage you to attend our many school activities and to volunteer as your schedule allows.  As always, if you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact me.
