The Blackhawks who are
rated number one in class 9AA will have a rematch of the Championship game last
year in Vermillion as they take on the Gregory Gorillas tonight in Wessington
Springs at 7PM.
Q107 will be
broadcasting the football game tonight.
There
will be a Tailgate Party from 5:30-7:30PM at the football game tonight. The
meal consists of a pork sandwich, chips, cookie and a pop for $5. A flyer has
been uploaded to our Google Drive.
The JH VB team travels

the Volleyball Folder on the Google Drive.
The 5th/6th Grade
Girls & Boys Basketball Practice and Game Schedule has been added to the
Google Drive. There have been updates made to the schedule. Due to conflicts
with W. Springs, we have switched the home and away games with Wess.
Springs. We also changed a 4PM start time for Oct. 19.
Academics
Mitchell Technical
Institute will be hosting My Technical Interest Days again this year.
Registration forms and additional information about the events can be found atwww.mitchelltech.edu/admissions/campus-events and
on the attached flier.
MyTI (pronounced
"mighty") Days are an opportunity for students, along withinstructors, counselors, and administrators to
visit the programs at Mitchell Technical Institute that are the “next steps” in
career clusters of interest. The student may be enrolled those program courses
in high school or just have an interest in that area
The following are the
dates for the camps:
October 15, 2015 – Energy
October 22, 2015 – Construction
October 28, 2015 – Ag and Transportation
November 10, 2015 – Business
November 10, 2015 – Cyber
November 18, 2015 – Scrubs
March 8, 2016 – Culinary
You will notice that
there is not a grade level of attendance for MyTI Days. I would say that camp
is geared more toward that sophomore or
junior student that is in the midst of career exploration, but I
wouldn't discourage a senior who
is trying to figure out what to do next year or a freshman with a great deal of interest in
that area to apply either.
Registration
is limited, so I would encourage your students to apply early.
Any seniors interested in going to MTI and submitting a MTI scholarship for $500, please see Mr. Weber. The due date is Oct. 9.
Registration is
currently open for the Teens As Teachers fall training held at the SDSU
Extension Regional Centers. Training date options include October 12, 13 and
14. Teams may be affiliated with a school, 4-H Club or other organization. Four
different content area curriculums are available for teams to choose to teach
including: Character Education; Science, Technology, Engineering and Math
(STEM); Nutrition Education; and TeachSD (teaching technology to adults over
50). For a full description of content options, view 2015 SD 4-H Teens As
Teachers Fall Program Options on iGrow. For more information and
registration details please contact Mr. Weber or Mrs. Johnson.
We are in the process of
making changes and updates to the School Website. The Woonsocket School News,
Woonsocket Google Drive, and now the new Planbook are all located on there
under the quick links on the left hand side of the Homepage.
Planbook is a new
feature we will be using this school year. It allows students and parents to
view teacher's lessons online. A Planbook link has been added to the Quick
Links on the School Website. Just click on the link and it will take you
directly to the Planbook Website. When you are on the Planbook homepage
make sure you click on student view. Then type in the teacher's email
and the correct password which is located on the Planbook Page on the
Website.

FFA
On Wednesday, September
1st SC/W FFA attended the Central Area Land and Range Event. This event
serves as the state level competition for schools in the central area of South
Dakota. Our state has four area competitions of this type. Winning
teams advance to National Land and Range Judging in Oklahoma City.
SC/W FFA Members represented their schools well. In Range, Aaron Linke placed 4th and Nathan Linke placed 7th out of 65 individuals. Dillon Moore and Garrett Larson did not score high enough to place. However, they contributed to the total team score allowing the range team to place 4th over all and only 13 points behind 3rd place Wessington Springs! In Land/Homesite, Trent Kingsbury placed 24th and Sarah Morgan placed 28th out 132 individuals. In this event, Catherine Bechen and Bailey Schmiedt did not score high enough to place but helped out greatly with our team score. Our team placed 7th this year. All students who scored high enough to receive a placing were awarded a medal at the event.
Thank you to parents and staff on your support as we traveled throughout September preparing for this event. Congratulations to SC/W FFA Members for a job well done!
