PRINCIPAL'S MESSAGE PRINCIPAL'S MESSAGE

Hello Susan B. Anthony EAGLES and families! We hope you are enjoying your summer and spending time doing activities you enjoy! In a little less than 3 weeks, we will begin preparing for a new school year, and we are looking forward to seeing and working with all of you. The purpose of this newsletter is to say "hello", welcome to new families, welcome back to returning families, and to provide a little information to keep you informed of important dates and events coming later this August.


Susan B. Anthony EAGLES practice and demonstrate our core values of Safety, Ownership, Acceptance, and Respect (S.O.A.R.) as they learn and work together each day. Throughout the year, we will explicitly teach and reinforce these values through classroom lessons, SOAR Tickets, the EAGLE WAY CALL OF THE DAY, and our quarterly "SOARing EAGLE" awards.


Our mission in the Sioux Falls School District is "To educate and prepare each child to succeed in a changing world". At Susan B. Anthony we have incorporated that mission in our school vision: "We know the most important adults in a child's life - parents, guardians, grandparents, etc. - are their first teachers. As your child's first teacher, we want to partner with you in educating and preparing your student for success in an ever-changing world." Our partnership with our students' families is not only important, but also critical to each child's success. We hope to foster open communication, working together, and positive relationships in a welcoming environment.


Finally I would encourage you to visit the Susan B. Anthony school website often. You will find important information, as well as a live feed with quick updates. The website can be accessed HERE. You can follow us on facebook: https://www.facebook.com/people/Susan-B-Anthony-Elementary/100087609833714/

#ChooseYourPath #ChooseYourPath

This year’s theme, Choose Your Path, reflects our belief that every child’s journey is uniquely their own. Each day offers fresh opportunities for students to make choices that build their character, strengthen their relationships, and shape their future.


As a school, we are here to walk alongside your child every step of the way. We’re committed to fostering a supportive environment where students feel safe taking learning risks, pushing through challenges, and celebrating their wins. Our staff is dedicated to creating an environment where every student feels inspired to reach their full potential.


Thank you for partnering with us, and we can't wait to watch our students SOAR as they discover where their paths lead this year!

SBA Principal ~ Mr. Jeff Sheets

Greetings EAGLES! I am privileged to serve as the principal of Susan B. Anthony again this year, which will be my seventh year here. I cherish every moment, relationship, and interactions I have with students, families, and staff! I believe in helping each child succeed at their highest levels academically and socially. We have a great team of teachers and support staff who show up each day for our students to help us reach our mission to "educate and prepare each child to succeed in a changing world. Outside of school I am blessed to be a grandfather to two wonderful grandkids and spend as much time with them as possible.
