Friday, November 4th 2022-Blue Day

Want to find out how fantastic the Oral Interp. students are?  Visit the Sanborn Central Facebook page to read Mrs. Farrel-Poncelet's updates.  https://www.facebook.com/sanborncentralschool

Parents...reminder that Trista Jensen's Volleyball camp is tomorrow in Woonsocket. Kindergarten- 3rd grade will be from 8:00 am- 10:00 am. 4th grade- 6th grade will be from 10:00 am - 12:00. 

We have had MANY cases of strep throat at school this week. Signs and symptoms of strep throat include: throat pain that usually comes on quickly, painful swallowing, red and swollen tonsils (sometimes with white patches), tiny red spots on the back of the roof of the mouth, swollen/tender lymph nodes in your neck, fever, headache, rash, nausea/vomiting (especially in younger children), and body aches. Don't forget to wash water bottles daily. Also, if you have not sent a water bottle with your child, please consider doing so. Unfortunately, water fountains carry an abundance of germs even when cleaned daily

Parents..the office is in need of ice cream buckets.  If you have extra's to spare it is appreciated.

Today the 5/6 b-ball boys and girls teams will be at Woonsocket vs. WS.  The girls will tip off at 6:00 followed by boys at 7:00

Parents this is a great opportunity for free, online tutoring available for K-12 students.
South Dakota students and families can access a new, online tutoring program, staffed by college students who are preparing to become teachers. The Dakota Dreams Online Tutoring Program offers FREE online tutoring to K-12 students across the state. One-on-one tutoring sessions can help students with their homework, tackle specific trouble areas, and address broader educational concepts. As educators, you understand the impacts the COVID pandemic has had on students. This program is meant to supplement efforts at the local level to address learning loss and support all students in achieving their highest potential. Attached is a tool teachers can use to send home information about the program to families. It includes areas teachers can fill in to help families understand what kind of tutoring and resources might be most helpful for their students

If your student is related to a veteran and you would like to include that person in this year’s slide show, please email that information and a picture of the veteran to Megan.Wilson@k12.sd.us. If your veteran was included last year, no need to resend that information.  Please send the information by the end of the day on Thursday, November 3rd. 

A reminder regarding Ellie Evans Sr. project.  She is conducting a Food Drive/ Kids Winter Accessories Drive. If you are interested in donating, she has a  boxes located at Sanborn Central, Letcher Community Church, and CorTrust Bank in Letcher.  This project ends Friday! She will also be doing an in person drive on Saturday, November 5th from 8:00 AM - 12:00 PM at the Letcher Community Center if you would like to drop off at that time!
