The SB-L High School Choir sang caroling songs this week at Pioneer Valley Living & Rehab, Embassy Rehab & Care Center and Floyd Senior Living. It was fun to sing for the residents and bring some holiday cheer! Merry Christmas everyone and Happy New Year!
I got to help sing happy birthday to two students today.(The were half-birthdays.)
Members of the SBL Middle School Choirs spread some holiday cheer by singing for the residents and staff at Embassy Rebab and Care Center in Sergeant Bluff on Friday, December 13 and Monday, December 16. Not only were our students able to share their musical gifts, they also shared their artistic skills by making holiday cards for the residents. We had a great time seeing the joy our visit brought to the residents. We look forward to sharing more music with the folks at Embassy later this school year. Thank you for having us!

As we wrap the week of Thanksgiving, I want to share our thanks for our parents and community. Groups such as the PTO, SBL Foundation and the athletic & music boosters help Strengthen, Build & Lead SBL schools. Thank you to our entire community for supporting the Warriors!
Today I am thankful for our leadership teams. I am so thankful for our principals. Every day they help students and staff be the best version of themselves. I am also thankful for our school board. They volunteer their time to help shape SBL schools to be the best we can be!

It's Thanksgiving and there is so much to be thankful for, like our students! These students perform in the classroom and in competition. They are capable of amazing things. Every day we get to work with the most amazing young people and help them become what they want to be!
Today I am thankful for our non-certified staff. These are nurses, bus drivers, maintenance & grounds, secretaries , and kitchen & tech staff. These are people that often do things that go unnoticed. They keep students safe and greet them with smiles. Thanks for all you do!
Today is day two of the week of Thanksgiving. Today I am thankful for our outstanding associates! Our associates answer the call to do just about everything in and outside the classroom. They show compassion for our students every day! Thank you!
This week of Thanksgiving, I'm reminded of all the things I am thankful for as part of SBL schools. Today I am thankful for our amazing teaching staff! Research says teachers have the biggest impact on student achievement and we have the best!
I visited 1st and 2nd grade today. 1st graders were working on reading. 2nd graders were working on regrouping in math, which they just learned about yesterday!
Good evening,
It has come to my attention that there is a false message circulating social media regarding our middle school. The message cites concern regarding the safety of our children.
This afternoon, a drawn picture was found under a desk that concerned a student. They did the right thing and gave it to a teacher. It was then given to me. Upon looking at the drawing with law enforcement, it was determined to be of no concern. It appears to be a drawing of a video game or a fantasy scene complete with a fortress, moat/ river, food, and bad guys. No weapons appear in the scene. The school is not represented in the scene and there is no written threat, note, or words of concern. It has been determined that there is no danger to students.
In matters such as these, it is always best to contact a school administrator. An email could be sent after hours.
Stronger together,
Dr. Jill Brown and Chad Janzen
The athletic boosters are looking for people to help at their annual basketball tournament this weekend. Please consider helping. They do a lot for our programs.
