Last Friday, Durant students had their first ENCORE of the year. During ENCORE, students and staff celebrated August and September birthdays, recognized Super Cougars, and took part in their first Cougar Den challenge. The orange Cougar Den of Respect earned 15 points as a result of its team members taking 1st and 2nd in the challenge! Take a look at the updated Cougar Den points so far this quarter! It is exciting to see our students working hard to follow the Cougar Way!
Since the students in 4A couldn't hold their signs for the homecoming parade, we decided to take a picture to cheer on all of the upcoming events during these next few weeks. Good luck to all competing teams! Cougar Victory!
Durant's 4A class also had the pleasure of spending time with a special guest on Tuesday. Mrs. Njus's mom brought her puppy, Max, for the students to meet. Meeting this sweet little guy was such a treat!

SFHS Student-Athletes of the Week: Addi Murray and Westin Osborn. “Addi continues to showcase her dominance on the court, especially at the net. She leads the team in blocks and is becoming a significant offensive force, with a powerful attack that has proven difficult for opponents. Her presence at the net is growing more threatening with each match, and she’s only scratched the surface of her potential. Her best is yet to come!” –Coach Buhman “Westin exemplifies hard work and dedication on and off the field. He’s a student-athlete who has consistently put in the effort, earned the respect of his teammates, and leads by example. His positive attitude and willingness to do whatever is asked of him make him a reliable leader for younger athletes.” -Coach Jones

FES would like to thank Mrs. Bullerman and the Middle School Staff for all of their hard work planning and organizing activity stations for our students this morning. The 8th Graders did a great job leading the stations , and our students had a blast!
The morning preschool class spotted the Cougar walking outside of their classroom and got a picture with him. The afternoon preschool class is showing off their cool Cougar paw tattoos.
Good afternoon S-F parents & families,
Unfortunately, the gas leak on the east side of Sumner is not fixed. The city blocks from 1st street to 7th street east of Railroad remain closed. However, 1st street (Hwy 93) is open all through town.
S-F students normally dropped off at St. John's Lutheran Church in Sumner will be dropped off at the SEMS building.
Parents of these students will need to pick them up in the parking lot to the east of the SEMS building.
* Parents picking up: Please come in the EAST entrance off of Hwy 93 and exit to the SOUTH to keep the traffic moving.
Adults will be at the SEMS building for students who normally walk from St. John's and whose parents cannot immediately pick them up.
Thank you!

Good afternoon S-F parents & families,
Due to the natural gas leak on the east side of Sumner, we've changed our afternoon plans for our Homecoming Assembly.
Durant Elem., Fredericksburg Elem., & S-F Middle School will not be attending the Homecoming Assembly today and will be dismissed at regular times. S-F High School students will have the Homecoming Assembly and dismiss school after it is finished (approximately 2:30).
Our goal is to keep students in school for as long as we can to give Black Hills energy time to fix the gas leak so that we can run normal bus drop-offs at that end of town and ensure the evacuation order has been lifted. The S-F school district will not want to drop students off in the evacuation zone.
If the leak is not fixed by the time we dismiss students, we will send out alternative drop-off locations for students who normally get off at St. John's Lutheran Church in Sumner.
We appreciate your understanding and flexibility as we've navigated what might be the strangest Homecoming Week in S-F history.
Take care,
Kevin Seney
S-F Supt. of Schools
Due to unforeseen circumstances there will not be a homecoming parade today. The pep rally will be high school students only, however, adult attendance is still welcome. The pep rally will start at 1:15 in the blue gym and will be live streamed on the Hudl Fan app.
Durant Elementary is currently sheltering in place due to a gas line break on the east end of town. We have windows closed and students are staying inside the building. The local fire department and a city employee have been through the building and outside have not detected any gas in our area. We will continue to monitor the situation. We will still attend the pep rally at the high school at 1:00 if we continue to have no gas detected and the evacuation zone remains the same. Please contact the school if you have any questions or plan to pick up your student.
