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!

Good morning Wildcats! Remember there will be no school this FRIDAY 9/2 and next MONDAY 9/5. Happy Labor Day Weekend!

Look at this 2nd graders celebrating second day in second grade!

The Two Way Immersion team is also proud of being part of the Sioux Falls Public Schools!

Our first day of school was a success! Teachers, student teachers, interns, clericals, administrators, nurse and all other staff members gave all our kids the best! It was amazing to see all the smiles! #wildcats #gameon #rosaparks #publicschoolproud

Good afternoon all! We wanted to let you know we will not be handing out the bus cards to students until Monday at school. They will start using them on Tuesday morning. We had so many students arrive at school today with parents (which was amazing!) so we are unsure of who will ride the bus in the mornings. By having the extra days, we can make sure we have all cards ready to go. Thank you for your patience as we work through this new process.
Wildcat family, tomorrow is the first day of school and we can't wait to see you all back! Remember this year the school times are 7:45am to 2:30pm.
Are you ready? GAME ON!

The countdown is ON! We are so excited to welcome students back for another great school year! Staff have been busily preparing their classrooms, brushing up on instructional skills, and revisiting the always-important-topic of customer service! See you soon!

A new app for parents of bus-eligible students is coming soon! The FREE Stopfinder app allows parents/guardians/daycare providers to see pick-up and drop-off times, the location of the bus, and other features in a secure app. More information will be coming soon, including an invitation to set up your child's account in Stopfinder. If you are the primary household of a bus-eligible student, please check your email for more information.

What better way to start August than some "inspired" learning? SFSD staff members are sharpening their skills to help your student(s) achieve!
