Coat of Arms
The "Coat of Arms" is divided into two sections. The top section shows life in the Sidney High School. The upper-left-hand quarter of the "Coat of Arms" depicts the arts. The mask symbolizes the dreams of school life. The lyre shows the musical harmony of school life. The symbols do not stand for any specific school department, but rather try to show life at Sidney High.
The atomic symbol in the upper right symbolizes science at Sidney High. The torch stands for the light that fuses all knowledge. The bottom section of the "Coat of Arms" shows life in our community. The bridge symbolizes that Sidney is the Gateway to the Miami Valley; the gear symbolizes the importance and the variety of Sidney Industry. The leaves that surround the "Coat of Arms" symbolize the lasting influence of life at Sidney High. The traditional monogrammed "S" appears at the top of the "Coat of Arms".

Their strength defy;

Loyal to Sidney's men,
We are here to win again,
Fight, fight, unto the end

Go, go, go, go, go.
Fight, fight, fight, fight.
Win, win, win, win, win.
Go fight win!
