Our student training program is up for SA Student Training Program of the Year presented by University Health. Voting is open now through Friday December 5th. Let's show some love to our Athletic Trainers who go above and beyond for all of our Athletic Programs.
We've got a rising star! 🤩 Shoutout to former Clemens grad Josh Varnes Class of 2015 on signing a country record deal. From our stage to the big time—we can't wait to hear what you do next! His first single 'For Sale By Owner' is available now through most streaming platforms.
On top of music Josh is also a RN after graduating with his BSN from Galen School of Nursing. Keep reaching for the stars and representing the Clemens community with pride.

Parades, concerts, and most of all, thank-yous, were the focus of campus Veterans Day observances throughout SCUC leading up to the observance on November 11th. Processions were held through the halls of some campuses; students beamed with pride as they walked with parents, grandparents and other family members who currently serve or have served in the United States military.
Meanwhile, Samuel Clemens High School Air Force and Byron P. Steele High School JROTC cadets led the yearly observance at their respective campuses. Family members, many of them military-connected, watched as school choirs paid tribute to their guests with patriotic songs and expressions of gratitude for their service.
Veterans Day, first recognized as Armistice Day after World War I, reminds us of the men and women who serve to protect the nation from enemies, foreign and domestic. They trade comfort for duty, endure long deployments, often to volatile locales around the world. These sacrifices are felt by the service members themselves, and by their families at home.
SCUC is grateful and proud to be a military-connected school district, with approximately 40 percent of its enrollment tied to current or former military veterans. We express our deepest thanks for those who volunteer to serve to keep our nation safe and free.
LUTN begins at Lehnhoff Stadium at 5:15pm followed by the Hoco Bonfire. Bring some chairs and enjoy the food trucks. Will be a special night for the community.

The SCUC Community Advisory Committee (CAC) convened its fourth meeting at Samuel Clemens High School, continuing discussions on district facility needs on October 22, 2025. Comprising parents, business owners, and stakeholders, the CAC explored safety enhancements, such as replacing chain-link fences with harder-to-scale barriers, implementing master keys district-wide, and relocating parking to control building access. The meeting set the stage for a comparative tour of Byron P. Steele High School on November 12, highlighting disparities across campuses.
The 2016 Bond significantly upgraded Clemens’ Career and Technical Education (CTE) and Fine Arts programs. Amy Massey, CTE Director, showcased the 5,000+ square-foot culinary arts kitchen, operational since 2018, noting, “When they did the bond, they did this space right.” The J-wing, housing programs like Agriculture, STEM/Robotics, and a greenhouse, further demonstrated these advancements. However, Massey pointed out that Steele’s single cooking space pales in comparison to Clemens’ five, underscoring inequities.
Fine Arts also flourished post-2016 Bond, with the Performing Arts Center (PAC), modern choir rooms, and ample storage transforming Clemens’ program. Beth Bronk, SCUC Fine Arts Director, praised the PAC as a vast improvement over the “dark and dingy” old auditorium, and highlighted the district’s only dedicated Orchestra space at Clemens. CAC member Kimberly Steindorf remarked, “It’s interesting to see the differences of other schools and it’s great to see we are ahead in certain areas.”
Despite these gains, athletic facilities at Clemens and across SCUC lag behind. Athletic Director Scott Lehnhoff described the stadium’s cramped concessions as a “mosh pit,” with inadequate seating for 6A games and outdated 1966 lightpoles unfit for LED upgrades. The weight room, unchanged since Lehnhoff’s student days in the 1990s, and the mold-prone varsity locker room highlight the need for modernization. CAC member Melva Rivera Perez emphasized, “The priority should be our kids and providing them with the facilities that they need.”
