This week is School Board Recognition Week. Our children benefit every day from the leadership of our local school board. Today we will highlight Murray Van Laecken who has served on our board for 16 years. Murray graduated from Letcher High School in 1976 and enjoys his occupation as a farmer/rancher tremendously. He chose to serve on the board to keep a quality learning facility in our county. Watching our students and staff move into the new building will be a memory Murray will always cherish. In the future, he hopes to keep our top notch school operating as long as possible. Murray, we thank you for making the commitment to serve Sanborn Central students, staff, and patrons!
Today is the last day for high school students to switch classes.
HS Boys will practice at SC today – no JH!
Blackhawk Fans – take note: The Cheerleaders will be selling Spirit Poms for $2.00 prior to Saturday’s game at the Hanson Classic. Find a cheerleader or coach at the Corn Palace to purchase yours!
