Child Find:  I am working on the yearly census updates and want to make sure that we have all preschool aged children in our census. This not only assists with projected numbers, but will ensure that you are aware of preschool screening when it’s time!  If you have a child born after September 1, 2010, please contact mary.ackman@k12.sd.us to see if I have you in our list!

Tracy Moody is applying for a Monsanto grant and part of the application process is to be nominated by as many local farmers as possible.  If you would consider taking the time to go to the following website and nominate our school, it would increase our chances of receiving the grant.  It is a very quick process, the district contact is Tracy Moody and her email is tracy.moody@k12.sd.us   Thank you in advance!
