Friday – February 22, 2019
Blue Day

Everyday there are accomplishments or satisfying moments that give you a reason to be thankful for.  Today we are thankful for a very special family in our school that has shined a positive light on foster care and what it means to be a important family to so many in need!  Thank you Reinders family and Tori for calling Sanborn Central home!  If you missed the Keloland story please take time to view the following link https://www.keloland.com/news/eye-on-keloland/the-power-of-foster-care/1798171280

February 25th-March 1 grades K-12 will be having a penny war.  If you are not familiar with how this works pennies are positive, nickles, dimes, quarters and dollars are negative.  The goal is to be the class that earns the most money to earn a pizza party on March 4th.  Proceeds will go toward the Jr. prom fundraiser.

SENIORS!!!!!!  Mrs. Dawson needs senior pictures for the senior spotlight ASAP.  She is missing pictures from Royce Hunter, Kendra Morgan, Levi Nicholson, Eric Ruml, Sawyer Senska, Jayden Tucker, Alex Wormstead, and Kyle Zoss.
