Patriot Notes By Val Fox, LHS Principal

We are at mid-quarter for first quarter already! We do not mail out grades, so

parents/guardians need to continue to monitor Infinite Campus for your child’s grades. Our first Parent Teacher con-ferences are scheduled for later this month—October 17 and October 24 (both are 4:00 PM-7:30 PM). Please

mark these dates on your calendar and take advantage of this opportunity to visit

with your child’s teachers. We want to extend our congratulations to our Na-tional Merit Semi-Finalists at Lincoln. Those students are: Sam Anderson, Trevor Gormann, Callie Burris, Eric Feng, Thomas Lauer, and Mauren Schultz. Congratula-

tions on this academic achievement! Fall activities are well-underway. We have many students involved in football, volleyball, cross country, soc-cer, tennis, golf, dance, cheerleading, softball, marching band, oral interp, debate, choral groups and theater pro-ductions. Students have many ways to be involved at Lin-coln—in activities, athletics and clubs. If your child isn’t

involved yet, encourage him or her to join one of the many activities offered. Thank you to all of our parents/guardians for your time and support with all of these activ-ities.

PATRIOT PRESS

Learning Never Stops By Dr. Brian Maher, Superintendent

Welcome back to what I’m certain will be another exciting year in the Sioux Falls School District! By now, I hope you and your student(s) have developed a routine that includes a healthy breakfast, a priority on school attendance, nightly reading and just the right amount of rest.

It’s been said that play is a child’s work. This summer, I’m pleased to say we intro-duced a good balance of both in a new pro-

gram called Summer Climb. The focus of the 8-week Sum-mer Climb experience is to increase reading and math scores among students who struggle. A small group of

children in Kindergarten through third grade in three schools – nearly 200 students - were given the opportunity to spend their summer learning. And, learning they did! Summer Climb students at Hawthorne, Hayward and Laura B. Anderson Elementary Schools built and launched rockets to sharpen their science and math skills. They wrote stories and attended play per-

formances in the park. They went on field trips and experi-enced nature, first-hand. Some of the District’s top teachers guided their learning and created an unforgettable summer in an effort to boost student achievement. We’ll be tracking Summer Climb students throughout the year to see if the extra classroom time had a positive impact. And, as soon as we

have results from our youngest learners, we’ll be sure to share the news.

Summer break rarely means quiet halls in the high schools. Between sports practices, marching band rehears-als, Driver’s Education and other community events, there is plenty to squeeze in to the months of June, July and Au-

gust. In addition to these extracurricular activities, I’m pleased to tell you about how our more veteran students focused on academics through the summer, as well.

High school students who were close to completing their coursework on the last day of school, but just needed a little extra time, found that opportunity at each of our high schools this year. Teachers stayed overtime to guide

students toward completing assignments and taking tests to keep them on pace for graduation. More than 450 moti-vated students spent part of their summer taking courses to get ahead on credits. It is admirable that so many stu-dents value their education over their vacation.

As you can see, the Sioux Falls School District is serious about this business of educating students. We’ve

adjusted what you might consider to be the traditional school year to meet the needs of today’s learners. We are excited to see how these efforts benefits students – and in turn, benefit our community - in the months and years to come.

Senior Class Panoramic Photo The senior class panoramic photo will be taken in the main gym during ad room on Wednesday, October 5.

Patriot Spirit Everyone deserves a huge pat on the back for the enthusiasm and sportsmanship that has been on

display at our games this year. It’s great to see you supporting the team, having fun and doing it in a way that reflects so well on you and the school. I’m look-ing forward to many more such events! There can be a fine line between having fun and making fun of. We’ve all been to contests where members of a

crowd have not been up to the standard that you have set. I would like to review some of the tenants of good sportsmanship. In our cheering we like to keep in mind that we cheer for our team and not against the other team and we don’t want to single out any play-

er. In fact, the rules prohibit the singling out of a player and calling them by name, number or anything else that would identify the individual. The South Da-kota High School Activities Association rules also con-tain a dress code that requires spectators to wear a shirt so please wear a t-shirt or tank top under a toga

on those occasions when those are worn. You’ve been great so far, let’s keep setting the standard for other schools to see!
