Middle School Transition Night Thursday, April 9th, 2026!

Wellness Wednesday
This week’s focus: Change One Thing
Sometimes small changes can make a big difference, especially when it comes to food and drinks.
Try swapping just one thing today:
• Choose water instead of soda
• Grab crackers or a granola bar instead of chips
• Pick fruit instead of candy
• Add something healthy to your meal instead of taking something away
Small choices like these can help boost energy, improve focus, and help students feel their best throughout the day.
Start with one change. That’s all it takes. #SiouxCentralRebels

Project Update: Building a Future for Our Rebels
I wanted to provide everyone with an exciting update on the progress of our construction project. It has been a productive season, and the transformation of the site is truly remarkable to witness. We have reached a major milestone as all the concrete has been successfully poured, giving us the first real look at the expansive footprint of the interior. It is incredibly rewarding to see the vision finally coming together, from the solid foundation of the new floors to the installation of the windows and frames that are now defining the building's exterior.
The stage area is also coming together nicely, with metal framing and structural work well underway to create a premier performance and gathering space for our school. Currently, crews are utilizing high-reach scaffolding and lifts to complete the essential upper-level work, including HVAC and electrical installations. Once that equipment is cleared and the scaffolding comes down, I look forward to sharing more photos that will capture the full volume and impressive scale of this facility. This is going to be an amazing space for our future students and the entire SC community. Have a great Monday and Go Rebels!

We had 6 Lady Rebels qualify and compete in the 2A session of the IATC Indoor Championships yesterday. We had solid performances all around with four career bests, one season best, and two podium finishes with Sage Weber finishing 5th in the 1500m run with a time of 5:10.43. That is her season best, and the New Iowa #47 fastest indoor time. Karina Bloom also made the podium in the 800m with a 5th place finish in a time of 2:29.42. That is also her career best and #45 fastest time in Iowa indoors. Karina also had a career best in the 400m run with a time of 1:04.53. Lily Johnson had a career best in the 60m dash with a time of 8.72. Madi Wittmaack had a career best in the shot put throwing 29 ft. 8.25 inches. Great start to the season ladies! REBEL PRIDE!

A servant’s heart
During a mission trip to Honduras and hearing the testimonies of boys at an all-boys school, Nevaeh Brauhn sparked a desire in her to help those facing food insecurity in places like Honduras. Their stories stayed with her and inspired her to take action back home. For the second year, she organized a meal packing event at Sioux Central. She mailed letters to local businesses, spoke at church, shared on social media, and even sold cookies at basketball games to help raise money.
With the generosity of our community, she raised $5,500. With the help of Sioux Central staff and students, they packed around 32,400 meals for people facing food insecurity.
A special thank you to Mrs. Hanson and Mrs. Erpelding for their support and help in making this event possible.
She hopes to inspire other students to find ways to serve too. We are so proud of the difference one person can make. #SiouxCentralRebels #RebelLegends #NoOrdinaryRebels
