SANBORN CENTRAL E-NEWS
It’s Election Day at Sanborn Central. Thanks to the
Middle School Student Council, Mr. Flatten, and the Senior Class for making
this election a learning experience for everyone at Sanborn Central.
In basketball action yesterday, the 5/6th girls defeated
Hitchcock-Tulare 16-9. Unfortunately, the boys lost their game.
From Mr. Gross: Yesterday the Sanborn Central FFA went to
Mitchell Tech to participate in the District 4 Leadership Career Development
Events (CDEs). We had two teams competing at the event, a Parliamentary
Procedure team and a Jr. Parliamentary Procedure team. Both teams placed second
in their events! This means that each team earns a trip to State Leadership
CDEs in Pierre next month. The Parliamentary Procedure team consisted of
Jessica Schmit, Hannah Spelbring, Haley Degen, Kelbi Dean, Ashley Schmit, Jarid
Bechen, and Shane Nelson. The Junior Parliamentary Procedure team consisted of
Logan Effling, Josh Feiner, Tyler Johnson, Tucker Kingsbury, Dillon Moore,
Cordell Nicholson, and Clayton Sewall. In addition, Logan Effling participated
in the Creed Speaking CDE and placed 7th in the district. Lastly, I'd like to
congratulate our new District Officer Hannah Spelbring, she will be serving as
our District 4 Reporter this year! I am very proud of how the FFA members did
at this event. They definitely represented Sanborn Central well!
