Wednesday, November 16th 2022-Orange Day

Today we celebrate YOU!  Thanks for being Sanborn Central's number O-N-E fan!  The community  plays a vital role in supporting staff and students of the local school districts.  From cheering at ball games, volunteering to read in a classroom, and donating snacks, books, and more, schools need the community!  Stop in at 2:45PM to "Connect With Kids" and enjoy a cookie!  We will have different activities set up in the gym/commons to work on with the kids.

Thursday-Teacher Day-It had been said that teaching in not a job, but a lifestyle...and most teachers have been practicing for that lifestyle since playing school as kids!  From writing lesson plans and correcting papers to acting out the story with all the crazy voices and making up songs to remind kids hoe the water cycle works, teaching is a passion.  Thank a teacher today!

Friday-Student Day-Students are our business!  Without students, schools would not exist.  Students will enjoy a movie and snack provided by the Booster Club today.  Students may wear their favorite warm and cozy pj's and bring a pop, juice, water or sports drink (20 oz. or smaller)labeled with their name to drink during the movie!  Thank You students.

Notes from Ms. Amundson
College Access Campaign:
Seniors have until November 30 to fill out college applications for FREE at participating colleges here in South Dakota. Please take advantage of this opportunity! College applications are online and can be found on each college's website. Each college and major/program have different deadlines for admission, so make sure to submit your application on time. Once you have submitted a college application, make sure to let Ms. Amundson know what colleges you have applied to so she can send them your transcript.
Scholarships:
Ms. Amundson updates her scholarship website weekly with many scholarship opportunities for students - you can check it out here: https://sanborncentralcounselor.weebly.com/scholarships.html

Community
T-hugs, a group of Woonsocket quilters, is in need of any
cancer related shirts you may no longer wear.  They use the graphics and turn them into cuddly quilts to brighten area cancer patients' days.
If you are willing to donate to this cause, the SC office will act as a drop off until December 2, 2022.
Questions contact Mary - mbackman811@gmail.com
Thank you for supporting this cause. 

Hello! Mrs. Rodriguez and I (Mrs. Deinert) are looking forward to establishing a new opportunity for our high school students to develop their relationship with Jesus. We are working to provide a group similar to FCA, however, our study group will be called Devoted Students. Our first night will be December 5th. We will meet in the Woonsocket commons at 6:00 (after basketball practice) with supper, games, and a study provided. Any high school student (9th - 12th grade) is welcome to come! However, we do ask that you please fill out the following form so we can plan accordingly with food, etc. Thank you, and we look forward to seeing you there! 🙂
