Today we will run eligibility.
5/6th B/G B-Ball @ Woony after school

Sanborn Central Community, The efforts to patch areas on the south end of the football
field did not yield the results necessary to host a football game this year. The October 
11th varsity game will be moved to Wessington Springs. We are going to use this time to properly winterize the field to prepare for the next youth soccer and football seasons to make our field ready for play. The Sanborn Central School District takes pride in being a meeting point for our community and will continue to strive to showcase and improve
our school. Superintendent Corey Flatten & Board President Mark Goral

Reminder to juniors that the Dakota Tom sandwiches will be arriving today. Please bring a cooler to school or to the game for pick up of the sandwiches. There will NOT be space to store them at the school.

Lunchroom News: 
Let' Talk about OVS at Lunch
At lunch, schools must offer students all five required food components in at least the minimum required amounts. The components at lunch are: meats/meat alternates; grains; fruit; vegetables; and fluid milk. Under OVS, a student must take at least three components in the required serving sizes. One selection must be at least ½ cup from either the fruit or vegetable component. At Sanborn Central, we follow OVS throughout the entire school. 

If there are any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact Laura Conrad at laura.conrad@k12.sd.us or at 605-495-4183. 

Remember, Sanborn Central encourages all parents to visit our cafeteria! Stop in and have lunch with your student!
