The ASVAB will be offered at Simley for free on Tuesday, September 24th and is open to students in grades 10-12. Get more information and sign-up with Ms. Kimble in the Career Center.

Congratulations to the Boys Varsity Soccer team as they defeated South St. Paul last night 4-2!  This brings their overall record 10-0-0! Next they play away at St. Thomas Academy Tuesday 7 pm!  Come cheer them on! 



Congratulations to the Simley Girls Volleyball team for a wonderful performance at Henry Sibley on Thursday and a 3-1 set victory. The Spartans were in control through the match. Both teams felt each other out during the first set before Simley pulled away late for a comfortable win. Set two saw the Warriors win through no fault of their own as the set was completely controlled by Simley trying to be good guests and awarding the last five points of the set to Henry Sibley. The true nature of the team came out in  sets three and four, however, as the Spartans roared out to a 7-0 lead in set three to cruise home, while set four saw all hope taken away from the Warriors as Simley, after a back and forth start start, outscored Henry Sibley 19 to 6 in the decisive fourth set. The offense was powerful; the blocking was unrelenting; the setting was smooth; and the defense was inspiring as the better team won in very satisfying fashion.
