School

The month of October is the start of the Free College Application Period in South Dakota. The time actually runs from Oct. 1 through Nov. 30 for South Dakota high school students to apply to South Dakota public universities and technical schools for free. In order to kick-off this time frame for students at Sanborn Central, the school’s guidance counselor, Ms. Logan Amundson, created a door-decorating contest for teachers and staff at the school. The teachers and staff were asked to decorate the door to their room promoting their alma mater(s). The staff member who wins the door contest will win a “get to leave the school early” one day pass. The winner will be announced Friday, Oct. 13.

With a “Cartoons” theme this year, Blackhawks Homecoming Week is upon us, and the festivities have started. Everything started on Monday with Spirit Week days designated in Woonsocket as Pajama Day and Sanborn Central had “Monsters University” Wear Your Favorite College Gear Day. Coronation was on Monday night at both schools with Cooper Goldammer and Kara Wormstadt being crowned as royalty at Sanborn Central and Kam Ochsner and Evan VonEye receiving the honor at Woonsocket. 

The Blackhawks volleyball girls had their only game of the week on Tuesday night against Wolsey-Wessington at Sanborn Central, and the homecoming football game will be on Friday night at Wessington Springs against the TDA/AC/DC Thunderhawks. Results from those games along with all other activities and designated spirit days will be in next week’s issue of the Sanborn Weekly Journal. 

There will be two extra color pages in next week’s issue for Homecoming photos. If you would like to help sponsor those pages, please contact Carrie Howard at (605) 796-4221 or (605) 770-8997.
