Top Dogs are given to students when they're doing their #BulldogBest. (i.e. following directions, being a kind friend, helping others, being a leader, etc.)
Sloane in 1st grade got the first top dog of the 22-23 school year!
Way to go, Sloane!! Keep up the good work!
We're excited to watch our Top Dog bulletin board fill up with top dog paws!
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!
We've made it through the first day!
We look forward to many more great days this year!
❤️ Laura Wilder Teachers & staff

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!
