Dear 11th and 12th Grade Parents and Guardians,
Mr. Steele and I are excited to take our juniors and seniors to the College and Career Fair in Mitchell on Thursday, October 9th! This will be a great opportunity for students to explore postsecondary options, meet college representatives, and learn more about different career pathways.

We’ll also be touring Dakota Wesleyan University (DWU) and Mitchell Technical College (MTC) during the day. The Sanborn Central Booster Club has generously offered to pay for students’ lunch at Pizza Ranch—thank you to them for their support!

Below is our schedule for the day:

• Leave school: 8:30 AM
• College Fair: 9:00–10:00 AM (DWU Campus – Wellness Center)
• DWU Campus Tour: 10:00–10:45 AM

• Lunch at Pizza Ranch: 12:00–1:15 PM

The only thing students may opt to bring is a jacket as we will be outside for the tours, as well as a water bottle. Also, there is a coffee shop on the campus at DWU so some students may choose to purchase a coffee or beverage if time allows.
