On Sept. 6-8, the South Dakota Council of Teachers of English (SDCTE) held their annual conference. This year the conference was held in Huron. At this year’s conference, Ms. Susan Farrell-Poncelet, the 7-10 grade English teacher for Sanborn Central, was honored with the Young Leader Award for 2018-2019. 

In order to be considered for the award, you have to be nominated by your colleagues and then the nominees go through an elimination process. 

The citizens of Sanborn County have always known that the teachers here are the best, but it is nice to have others recognize that as well.
