Schurz Schuffle Scavenger Hunt

Use the clues to find Bulldog footprints on 14 rocks hidden around the Schurz campus. Write down the letter on the back of each rock, and un-Schuffle the letters at the end to find the hidden message! Take a picture of your hunt and share it with the #SchurzSchuffle hashtag!

SPECIAL EVENT: Join us Saturday, October 24, 9-11 a.m. for the Schurz Open House and learn about all our school has to offer! Meet teachers and students from programs including grade 9-12 International Baccalaureate (IB); AVID; Dual Language; and Career and Technical Education (CTE) programs including Allied Health, Automotive, Business & Finance, Digital Media, and Pre-Engineering.

No registration is required for this scavenger hunt, but participants are invited to support Friends of Schurz by registering for the virtual 3rd Annual Schurz Schuffle 5k.
