First Week Completed!

Happy end of the first week everyone!

Today is the last day, of the first week of the 2020-2021 school year.  I am so proud of all of our students for working so hard to accept and adopt the changes that this school year has brought.  It is so good to see them back in the building!

Thank you to everyone for working to adopt and practice all social distancing, hand hygiene practices, and all other ways that we can work to keep ourselves, our students, and our community well.  Please read below to review dates to be aware of, and some reminders regarding the daily school schedule.  Please contact the MS/HS Office at 605-397-8381 if you have questions or need additional copies of any school enrollment forms.

In This Together!

Mrs. Sombke
