SANBORN CENTRAL E-NEWS
 
If your student would still like to participate in the Punt, Pass & Kick Competition today at Wessington Springs but didn’t get pre-registered, they are still welcome to compete. They just need to be at the Wessington Springs football field tonight before 6:00 p.m. and see one of the coaches to get signed up.
 
From FFA instructor, Mr. Gross:
Our SC FFA students represented us well at the Wessington Springs Land and Range Event. The individual team members performed really well. There was a clay pan in one of the pits that threw off many of the kids from every school. Afterwards, they realized that mistake. I'm very proud of how well they perform and I'm looking forward to next year. I feel that we've formed a strong foundation that will allow us to build on. We have all learned so much this year. We should be in a good position to be one of the top teams next year. I'd also like to thank the students for their handwork in preparing for the event.
