  • If you were formerly signed up to go and are no longer attending for whatever reason please inform me via email or in person.

This week the 5th grade will be trying out instruments. At the end of the week, I will be sending home a packet of information about beginner band. Next week Thurs Sep 11th, Dave Williams will be in the Sanborn Central music room from 5pm to 6:30pm selling/ renting instruments. Please mark this down on your calendar if your student is going to be in band.

Reminder: There will be combined 8th-12th marching band rehearsal at Sanborn Central on Friday from 8:30am to 10:45am.

Our lunchroom is in need of ice cream buckets – do you have some at home?

The SC Booster club will be having a dues night during the Volleyball games on September 4th. Dues are $20 per family. This is a great way to support the many student activities at our school.  Everyone is invited to join!  

The recent wish granted to Tanna for their family trip to Hawaii was truly spirit-raising. To show appreciation and support to the Mitchell division of Make A Wish, a team (called Tan-Dog’s Team, of course!)  has been formed and will be participating in their Walk for Wishes walk & run event to be held at Hitchcock Park in Mitchell on Saturday, September 6th.   PLEASE JOIN OUR TEAM!!   It’s very easy to join by visiting the www.walkmitchell.org website and then clicking on the Tan-Dog’s Team link in the right-hand column, then clicking on "Join Team".  If you prefer to donate to the team instead of walking/running with us (at this point we’re all walkers!), there is also a "Donate Now" button given here.  Additional details regarding start time and additional evening activities are found here also.  It’ll be a fun evening in support of a great cause!  Please join us in helping fund wishes for area kids!!
