Brooklyn Cavanaugh's lunch took our taste buds for a twist as her guests enjoyed a tasty buffalo chicken wrap- with the addition of fresh avocado, shredded carrots, and lettuce wrapped up in a flour tortilla, served along with homemade, creamy buttermilk ranch dressing. On the side, crispy, sweet potato fries and a delicious pickle wrap. Ending on a sweet note, her guests enjoyed a delightful strawberry cheesecake stuffed cupcake.

Beginning mid-May, we will begin to work on elementary class rosters for next school year. We work hard to ensure students are placed appropriately for success. It is our policy not to accept specific teacher requests from parents. In an effort to be fair and consistent, we would recommend that if you feel there are certain facts we need to know about your child that may help with placement, please complete the Classroom Environment Form describing such needs without requesting a specific teacher. Forms should be returned to the office no later than May 7, 2021. Please understand that this information will be one of the factors considered as we combine students and teachers in ways that will best assure all a successful and enjoyable 2021-2022 school year. All letters will be shared with your child’s teacher next school year so he/she can better support your child’s educational needs. Here is a link to the form: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B7fv-ZUG9cMWMEFLMUdRZ0pkS1k/view?usp=sharing.

Thank you to all who attended the elementary concert last night and participated in Coins for Connor. In that short time, we raised $1423.60. The kids had such a blast this morning estimating what the value was of the coins in the 2 jars. What an amazing community we live in. Connor's mom, Jessie, texted me last night to thank everyone so much for the support, and she said it best when she wrote, "Sioux Central Strong!"
Brunch anyone? Keirah Anderson was the lead chef preparing a nice bacon, egg & cheese bake, with a fresh fruit salad and crispy breakfast potatoes with sweet peppers. Her guests ended a nice filling meal with a delectably sweet s’mores crepe.

Sioux Central students in grades TK - 4 will present their “Spring Sing” on Thursday, April 15th at 7:00PM in the gym. Masks will be required for all singers and audience members. This year’s concert will focus on songs sung on a family road trip. It will be a fun program!
We are doing a “Coins for Connor” fundraiser in conjunction with the concert. The proceeds will help Connor Hansen. Connor Hansen (parents Jessie and Kyle Hansen) is a 2nd grader at Sioux Central. He was diagnosed with All-Acute-Lymphoblastic Leukemia and spent several weeks at the Children's Hospital in Omaha for treatment. Connor is currently in remission but continues his treatments in Omaha and will be out of in-person school for the remainder of the school year.
Please help us collect “Coins for Connor” on April 15th! Bring your change. There will be a jar inside the gym doors for your donations. We look forward to seeing you at the Elementary Spring Sing on April 15th!
The HS golf meets for today have been postponed. The HS boys track meet in Spirit Lake has been cancelled.
