Congratulations to our Students of the Month for October! These students exemplify the Mustang Way. Thanks for being a great part of our school community!
And with a blink of an eye, we are already a quarter way through the 2022-2023 school year! The second quarter is here, and it’s a busy one! While this time of year tends to get chaotic, it’s important to remember how crucial student attendance is. Chronic absenteeism is a serious problem in South Dakota - a problem SFSD is committed to improving. Missing just two days a month can hurt a student’s grades and increase their chance of dropping out. Make sure your student is on the path to a bright future – and that starts in the classroom!

Tomorrow is our annual Staff Vs. Student Volleyball Game! Admission is $1 or a canned food item. We are raising money for Feeding South Dakota and Project Warm Up. Can't wait to see you there!
Last Friday, we wore pink to support our Memorial community members who have been affected by cancer. Thanks to the students and staff who participated!
