Students from Sonia Sotomayor (pictured in this photo) and the rest of the Sioux Falls School District would like to wish you a Happy Veteran's Day! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
South Dakota public schools proudly recognize and support the brave men and women who have served in our armed forces. Their sacrifices and dedication have upheld the values and freedoms we cherish, and we are deeply grateful for their commitment to protecting our nation.
Our schools are committed to instilling respect and appreciation for veterans among our students, helping them understand the importance of service and dedication. We invite our community to join us in expressing heartfelt gratitude and respect for our veterans.
Thank you to all our veterans for your service and sacrifice!
REMINDER! Sioux Falls School District schools and offices will be CLOSED on Monday, November 11, in honor of Veteran’s Day.
Thank you to all who have served! Especially SFSD staff members who proudly serve(d) in our schools and on the front lines. 🇺🇸

The Cleveland playground got a new "facelift" on Saturday afternoon. Thank you to Brian and Tarina Stroh and their family for battling the wind. We did our best to paint some additional games for the kids at Cleveland to enjoy during recess.
We appreciate our partnership with Hillcrest!!
Congratulations to the Cleveland Cubs for their hard work at the soccer tournament Saturday morning. They played with grit, determination and grace. When they lost, they showed true sportsmanship and when they won, they shook the other team's hands. Above all, they had FUN and showed up as a unified TEAM! We are so proud of our Cleveland Cubs!
Painting Pizza Fractions in 5th Grade was a HIT today!
Students were working on identifying, naming and finding equivalent fractions.
THANK YOU for supporting our school fundraiser by purchasing smencils! We made $600 for our school PTA to plan and fund more fun activities for Cleveland! Our next fundraiser will be next month!
If you would still like to purchase a smencil there are 40 left. Please send $2.00 to school with your child and they can visit Mrs. Lafrentz in room 102 to choose from the scents that are remaining.
Congratulations to our Cubs Count Winners last week. These students were ONE TIME, EVERY DAY last week. Way to go!!

Teachers from Cleveland and Susan B. Anthony came together this morning for professional learning. The day started with a Team Builder, which tied in with the work around Clarity for Learning that has been a major focus for the past several years.
Clarity for learning is important for elementary students because it helps them understand what they are learning, why they are learning it, and how they will know they have learned it.
Mark your calendars for Friday, October 18th from 3:30-6:00. There will be a FREE KIDZ COAT event at the Downtown Library.
Cleveland Families~
Thursday, October 31st, Cleveland students are able to come to school dressed up as their favorite book character. Join in the FUN!
