Parent/Student Portal
Parent and students grades 5th and up the opportunities are endless with Student/Parent Portal.  You can access current and missing assignments, report cards, schedules, grades, calendars, attendance records etc.  As you student progresses with school and higher level grades it is important for the parents and students to be able to access important school information from home.  Children will have their own portal, and the parent’s portal is separate from the student’s portal. Please contact Laura in the office if do not currently have a portal.

A note from Mr. Flatten
There has been added interest in a voucher program in the state of South Dakota. This program allocates state funds for tuition fees that can be used at schools other than public schools. The Sanborn Central School Board and I stand in opposition to school vouchers unless the same accountability and reporting are also required from those receiving the voucher.
