A reminder to parents:  It is very easy to drop off a quick e-mail to someone at school regarding a change in plans for the end of the day.  Most of the time this works without any difficulty, however it is not fool proof! Please keep in mind that if the person you e-mailed doesn't reply - they maybe gone for the day.  Never hesitate to follow up with a phone call.  To ensure that everyone gets where they are supposed to be - please notify us of end of the day changes prior to 3:00 pm.

Sanborn Central will be a host this year for Caring Rose Week to help the local food pantry.  Caring Rose Week is November 19-23.  A dozen long-stemmed roses will be given for a donation of $10 and 2 canned goods.  More information will be sent out in the near future, but if you would like to reserve a dozen roses, please contact Tracy Moody at tracy.moody@k12.sd.us.
