SIS Christmas Party Schedule:

3rd Grade-11:30

4th Grade- 10:00

5th Grade- 10:30

Party tickets went home last week. Each child may have two guests at their class Christmas party. According to SSD policy, siblings are not allowed at school parties.

Once you have sent tickets back, please watch for tickets to come home daily in your child's communication folder. Having a ticket will speed up the process of entering the school. Tickets must be returned to school by December 13 to be verified, stamped, and returned.

Due to the limited seating in the cafeteria, we are taking reservations during lunch at school. Please call Michelle or Katie at 870-942-7488 to make your reservation. We will take reservations one week at a time. One family per table, please.

Great job, the SIS Quiz Bowl Teams! 5th grade placed third and 4th grade placed 1st at the Regional tournament at Arkansas River Coop.

5th Graders planted strawberries this week!

The Garden Club enjoyed learning about bugs! A big thanks to Mr. Howard Semey, an entomologist, for sharing his knowledge and collection with us! Also thanks to Mr. Josh Beach from Grant County Master Gardeners!

Fourth Grade has been working hard on text structure. The teachers created a text structure operating room to reinforce the skills that have been taught in the classroom!

SIS has brought back the 90 Clubbers and introduced the Celebration Bell! A class has to get 90% attendance for ten days. Once they achieve the goal, they get a class choice for reward, and they also ring the celebration bell!

Open your thoughts, words, and actions.

There is a pop tab collection bin located in the foyer of SIS. Ask friends and family to save pop tabs to help families of sick children. The grade level that collects the most pop tabs will get a reward. We will reward in December and May.
