The music department is thrilled to provide our students with the opportunity to perform, on stage, at Universal Studios and participate in a music recording session at the Disney Imagination Campus. For our students, these will be memories that will last a lifetime. The music department is currently seeking donations, which will go towards the group’s trip fees. If you are interested in helping, please send a check (written out to Somonauk High School) to Somonauk High School 501 W Market St Attn: SHS Music Department. Thank you for helping us provide impactful opportunities for our students!

Our new Somonauk #432 teachers were inspired to "make memories" for their students and themselves this school year. The new to #432 teacher orientation led by Instructional Coach, Amanda Taxis, was nothing short of impressive to start the 2022-23 school year! Bobcat Pride!
