Hello, and welcome to the 2022-2023 school year!!
We are very excited to have all of our students back and ready to learn!
We are working on reinforcing the EAGLE WAY ( Be Safe, Be Respectful, Be Responsible, and always Be Kind.) and the social skill of "accepting no".
Let's make it a great year of Learning!!





School drop-offs and pick-ups can be messy! Take your time, stay alert, and obey the rules of the road. A safe and orderly process makes the day start and end on a positive note for both students and parents!


Check out the first "What's the Scoop" newsletter for the 2022-23 school year! This month's newsletter from our Child Nutrition department includes important reminders and everything you need to know as we kick off this new school year! ---> https://www.smore.com/a35r9


The countdown is ON! We are so excited to welcome students back for another great school year! Staff have been busily preparing their classrooms, brushing up on instructional skills, and revisiting the always-important-topic of customer service! See you soon!


A new app for parents of bus-eligible students is coming soon! The FREE Stopfinder app allows parents/guardians/daycare providers to see pick-up and drop-off times, the location of the bus, and other features in a secure app. More information will be coming soon, including an invitation to set up your child's account in Stopfinder. If you are the primary household of a bus-eligible student, please check your email for more information.


What better way to start August than some "inspired" learning? SFSD staff members are sharpening their skills to help your student(s) achieve!


Keep your students fueled to learn! SFSD is no longer able to offer free meals to all students. Now is a great time to add money to their My School Bucks account. Or, for families with qualifying income, it is important to fill out the Free/Reduced Meal application!
Log on to the Parent Portal in Infinite Campus to apply! If you have questions or need help filling out the application please call 605-367-6180. We are happy to help!
Please note: if your student does not have a free/reduced lunch application on file, you will be charged full price for breakfast and lunch starting the first day of school. Thank you!

Parent/guardian feedback is important to SFSD! We just launched a 7-question survey - which takes 5 minutes or less - to help guide the next steps toward becoming the BEST school district in the nation!
Check your email or paste this URL in your browser: https://survey.k12insight.com/r/QDVv1e
The survey is open until the end of the school year. Take the survey once for each child enrolled. If you prefer to only take it on, please reference the oldest child in your household. Thanks for your participation!


Our School Fundraiser is HERE! Share your student pledge page from mybooster.com and let's start raising some money for our school ZIP LINE! Class with most donations TONIGHT will "Mummify Mr. Sheets" tomorrow.



Everyday, we all learn to be kind to one another. It is important to accept others for their differences, no matter what! We can celebrate the little things in life, such as holding the door, complimenting others, sharing a smile, and using kind words such as 'please' and 'thank you'. Sometimes these small actions are overlooked, but they can make a person’s day! _and that is worth celebrating!
