UPDATED ATTENDANCE PROCEDURE
Dear Parents/Guardians,
We are excited to announce that we have developed a new attendance email address for our students. This email address will allow students and parents to report absences and tardies and receive notifications regarding attendance issues.
The new email address is: MeadeSMSOffice@k12.sd.us.
Please note that emails to this address will be received by our attendance office staff and will be forwarded to your child's teacher for record-keeping purposes. We encourage you and your child to utilize this new system to report any absences or tardy in a timely and efficient manner. This will help us to maintain accurate attendance records and ensure that your child receives the necessary support to succeed in school.
If you have any questions or concerns about this new system, please do not hesitate to contact the attendance office at (605) 787-4172 or at MeadeSMSOffice@k12.sd.us.
Thank you for your continued support in ensuring the academic success of your child.

📣 DONATIONS NEEDED 📣
The Culturize Club has started "AWESOME SHOUTOUTS" between Stagebarn Staff Members. If a staff member sees a coworker do something AWESOME, such as making coffee, covering a morning duty, or simply making you smile, the Culturize Club will give them a SHOUTOUT. Certificates are printed and delivered periodically to make someone's day brighter! Every month, the names of people who are nominated will go into a drawing for a prize!
This is where we could use YOUR help! We are looking for donations that could be given as prizes! Some ideas may include: Small Coffee gift cards, pens, candy bars, if you are crafty or have a business and you would like to donate something. Anything--it does NOT have to be large! We appreciate all gifts and your time helping out with this act of kindness!
