The Weather Service indicates the greatest threat of severe weather did not materialize in Sioux Falls. We will begin our bus routes at approximately 3pm, so there will be a slight delay in getting elementary and middle school students home. High School dismisses at normal time.
Due to the weather 4-30-24, SFSD will hold all elementary students who walk or ride the bus until the system passes. We expect the system to arrive about 2:45pm and be done around 3pm. Busses will not leave the elementary schools until it is safe to do so. This will also cause a delay in middle school bus routes, so plan accordingly. If wx is still an issue at high school dismissal time, we will encourage students to wait to leave until the system passes. Thank you.
Weather may cause some challenges at school dismissal time today. SFSD will make plans with your child's safety as our highest priority. If there are changes, parents/guardians will be contacted immediately. We ask that you please monitor your phone and email closely.

Congratulations to our Millionaire for a Day writing contest - Ariel from 301. All students in grade 3 thru 5 wrote an essay responding to the prompt "What would you do if you were a millionaire for a day?". The prize was a limo ride to school, donuts and orange juice with your class and $300. Thank you to our partners at Citi for sponsoring this contest.
Thank you to our friends at Citi! The Laura B. Anderson community has been greatly impacted over the years through the partnership with Citi and its gracious employees. Students have benefitted from the annual financial literacy instruction, donation of books, and the opportunity to compete in a writing challenge for an award. The excitement on their faces when they have guests speak to them is evident in each classroom at every grade level. We look forward to continuing this partnership for years to come!

What to expect:
• Sharing thoughts and ideas on how our school can better support students and families in their journey towards making choices for their future.
• Learn about resources already available to students.
• Engage in open discussions to address any concerns or suggestions our community may have.
