Leah, Jamie, Macy, and Claire are freshman at SDSU and are studying Ag Ed. They came to work with and teach students in 501 about the importance of agriculture in South Dakota. "From Seed to Table: How We Grow and Use Crops" taught students where these crops originated, the stages of crop harvesting, crop byproducts, and so much more.

Please join us at the PTO Meeting tomorrow, November 14th at 5:30 in the library. It is a great opportunity to meet other parents and be involved in your child's education.

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!

101 was learning about triangles and quadrilaterals during this lesson. Students were using dot paper to practice making variety of sizes of triangles to show a triangle is a triangle no matter what direction it goes. :)
Our second year hires take the opportunity to deepen and polish their craft.
Happy Fall Party Day from the Challenge Center & Gifted Education Team! The team dressed up as various condiments.
With "Fall Classroom Parties" tomorrow, please let us know if your student(s) has a different afterschool plan. This is especially important if your student will not be riding the school bus or not going to daycare. This is very helpful at dismissal time! Please call 605-367-6170 email Holli.Bialas@k13.sd.us
Thank you!
Third grade students are measuring how far they can jump in inches and feet and inches. We will collect this data as a class and then graph this data and make observations about how far students in third grade can jump.
