The South Dakota Departments of Education and Social Services are conducting a survey to assist the state in understanding the current landscape of preschool education (for children ages 3-5) in South Dakota. This is the first step in a statewide study to capture valuable information about the preschool opportunities currently available to families across the state.
Parents of children ages 3 to 5 years are asked to fill out the following survey.

Our Band Banquet is tonight!
Serving of the free-will donation spaghetti supper will begin at 6:00pm, with band performances beginning at 6:30pm. Dinner will be served throughout the performances or once the food is gone. Performances will be in the north gym. All bands will be taking part, including the community band.
Each year during the winter, the entryway at B2 swells causing the door not to close. I am happy to say a new entry and door will be installed! Mills Construction will be here this week to do so. This will require the doors to be removed and the entryway to be repoured. They are hoping to be done with the project in a few weeks.
Starting on Wednesday afternoon (11/16), the following dismissal procedures will occur until further notice:
-Students will exit door B1 (by the art room). We will shift our standing lines down and around to the North sidewalk.
Starting on Thursday morning (11/17), the following arrival procedures will occur until further notice:
-All students will arrive at the front door, door A3. Parents and buses will drop off at this location.
Thank you for your flexibility during this project.
Congratulations to Coach Ethan Pearson on being selected as the 9AA FB Coach of the Year! 🏈🤍🦌💙🏈

Congratulations to the Lady Elks Volleyball Team,
As many of you are aware, the volleyball team has qualified for the state tournament which is being held in Sioux Falls beginning on Thursday, November 17th and running through Saturday, November 19th.
We considered a couple of options for school on Thursday and Friday but based on the number of staff members that indicated their intentions to attend the tournament, adequately staffing the school would have been very challenging on Friday.
We have decided to dismiss school at 2:15 pm on Thursday. Friday, school will be canceled.
Good luck to the Lady Elks Volleyball team, we are very proud of your accomplishment so far this season, we wish you the best of luck at the State A Tournament, back to back state appearances!
Go Elks!
