Notice on Lessons (5th-8th students) - It is not Mr. Kroeger’s or the classroom teacher’s responsibility to make sure that a student is showing up to their lessons. I was very lenient last quarter on grades because of the hectic schedule and being sick. For the rest of the school year, students need to: Show up to their lessons and practice 100 minutes to get a perfect grade. Not turning in a practice sheet is like not turning in homework for another class. This will result in a poor grade so please make sure your student understands this. Any questions or concerns, please email at brett.kroeger@k12.sd.us  

Attention 8th-12th Band Parents: There will be a parent meeting Tuesday Nov. 12th at 6:00 pm in the Sanborn Central Music Room. The meeting will be to discuss the meal for the band concert Nov. 26th and other logistics.

I want to send a HUGE Thank You to everyone that brought pop tabs to the school for the RMD House. They were very excited to see all the boxes and containters full of them when we dropped them off last week.  They make 10,000 to 12,000 dollars a year on them.  Just imagine if they had all the cans to go with them.  Thats why they just keep the tabs because they would never have the room to store all the cans.   Something I learned today. - Lynette Kingsbury

We have a mailing address for Tanna Kingsbury – Ronald McDonald House, % Lynette or Tanna Kingsbury, 850 2nd St SW, Rochester, Mn 55902
