Dear Parent/Guardians,
It's hard to believe, but the 2024-2025 school year is right around the corner! Summer FLEW by once again! I hope you were able to relax and recharge with your family. We are gearing up for another fabulous year at SC! We can't wait to see students in just two short weeks.
Our summer has been incredibly busy with our building project/renovations and other projects going on here at the school. We are excited for you to see the progress! Some renovations/updates will be completed before school starts (several restrooms, casework in elementary classrooms, track resurfacing, etc.), while several will be completed within a few weeks of school starting (library/media center, additional restrooms, locker rooms), and some will be later in the school year after Christmas break (elementary classroom addition, high school classroom addition, student activity center). Don't forget that you can track progress with the weekly updates on our website (https://www.scentral.k12.in.us/building-project)!
Our maintenance staff has done a wonderful job this summer, and overall the building looks GREAT!! But you'll have to please excuse the dust in some areas as construction inside the building continues.
I wanted to REMIND you that due to legislative changes from the Indiana General Assembly last year, families will not be charged for textbook rental, Chromebooks, or class fees as you have been in the past. If your child is in band, they'll still need to rent or provide their own instrument. If your child is in welding, they'll still need to have their own personal protective equipment (PPE). Also, please note: students/families will still be responsible to pay for lost or damaged textbooks and Chromebooks.
We do still ask that students bring in their typical supplies (pencils, paper, crayons, folders, etc.). If you need assistance with school supplies, please let us know!
Enjoy these last couple weeks of summer! Please don't hesitate to contact the school with any questions or concerns.
Go Satellites!
Ben Anderson, Superintendent
