August 10, 2016
The gym is closed until Friday August 12th!

Rebel Excitement is in the air as we are just days away from the 1st day of school!  Our Back to School Night is August 15th.  A free supper begins at 5:30 with students and parents visiting the classrooms and meeting with staff until 7:00pm. 

The Middle School and HS School Schedules have been uploaded to our Google Drive under the Forms & Publications Tab – Calendars & Schedules Folder.  Letters to MS/HS Students were mailed earlier this week.

Bussing
Here comes the school bus!!!!!   Once again Sanborn Central will do our best to ensure that our students get to the right place after school.  We rely on parental communication to make this happen.

If your child/children are not being dropped off at the same point they were picked up in the morning PLEASE send a written note or make a call to school prior to 3:00pm.  We will not honor/recognize a student coming to school saying, “Mom said I’m supposed to go to Grandma’s tonight.” or just getting on a different bus. 

We do understand that situations arise requiring last minute changes and we will do our best to accommodate your needs.

Feel free to contact us with any questions.

New Students

            We will not be running our site this week. Here is an update from Sally and Tanya! PLEASE PASS THE WORD!
*************************UPDATE 8/7/2016************************************
Good morning BB participants. We wanted to take a few moments to update you on what has been happening the past week. We ran a few test sites with a new vendor and we're quite pleased with the results. This picture shows what was distributed to those who participated. This week we will continue to run test sites (more than we did last week) so that we can make sure that everything is in place before we resume full co-op distribution. Plans are still being finalized and we will post which areas will have test runs once everything is set just as we did last week. We appreciate your patience in this transition and want you all to know that we are doing everything we can to return stronger and more bountiful than ever. Have a wonderful Sunday and stay tuned. ;)
