Friday, November 20th-Orange Day

November 16th-20th honors American Education Week.  We appreciate the teachers, bus drivers, cafeteria workers, administrative staff and countless others that keep our school running in tip top shape.  Thank You!

Monday will wrap up character counts with the color Purple to represent citizenship.  To recap the six pillars of character... Trustworthiness-be honest, don't cheat or steal, Respect-be considerate of the feelings of others, Responsibility-always do you best, be accountable for your words and actions, Fairness-play by the rules, take turns and share, Caring-be kind Citizenship-do your share to make your community better.  If we all exhibit the qualities that we are teaching the students of Sanborn Central this world and our community will be a fabulous place to live.
