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!

Congratulations to our 1st grade SIPPs graduates! They shared their successes in reading with the Kindergartners this morning.

Cleveland staff had their last "data dig" today after school. The entire focus was on celebrating our students' successes! Each staff member shared a goal about the students they serve, and each grade level shared a team goal. We are learning to celebrate SMALL gains just as much as MONUMENTAL ones! (Root beer floats and flamingo floaties also added to the fun!)

Congratulations to our ROAR winners! To achieve this award, you must be responsible, on task, achieve your goals and be respectful! Way to go Raquel, William (not pictured), Charlie, Karen (not pictured), Josie and Beck!

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!

📌 Reminder! 🌷 Spring Break starts tomorrow! There will be NO school Friday, April 15, and Monday, April 18, 2022. See you on Tuesday, April 19!

Mark your calendars! The last day of school will be Wednesday, May 25th, 2022. The Sioux Falls School Board approved a recommendation at their meeting tonight to move the last day of school from Tuesday, May 24, 2022 to Wednesday, May 25, 2022 due to the one day of school missed for inclement weather in December.
