#Strengthen-Build-Lead
What can happen when students are trusted to lead? This year, SBL students managed more than $95,000 in revenue through three student-run businesses: Spirit Spot Coffee Shop, Warrior Concessions, and Warrior Manufacturing.
Along the way, they developed valuable skills in customer service, budgeting, marketing, production, inventory management, and problem-solving. Warrior Enterprises gives students the chance to learn by doing, building confidence, responsibility, and career-ready experience before they graduate.

Today was Kathy Nissen's last day. She has served as the secretary for the superintendent and school board for many years. Thank you for your service to the school and community. We also want to welcome Johanna Perez, the new secretary. She started working in April. Welcome!
The 2026-2027 school calendar was updated due to legislative changes. The end of the 1st semester is now Friday, Jan. 15 (instead of Jan. 14) and the teacher work day is Monday, Jan. 18. The updated calendar can be found by going to sblschools.com and clicking on "calendars and schedules" in the orange ribbon.
Residents of the Sergeant Bluff-Luton School District are invited to stop by the Sergeant Bluff vs. Bishop Heelan baseball doubleheader this Thursday, June 25, to sign the petition needed to bring the proposed school bond before the School Board at its August 13 meeting.
The proposal addresses the same need that was before voters last November: construction of a new primary school building and retirement of the current facility. The measure fell just seven votes short of approval.
Petition signatures will be collected during both games, scheduled for 5:30 p.m. and 7:30 p.m.
This is a convenient opportunity for eligible district residents to add their signature and help ensure the petition reaches the required number of signatures for consideration by the School Board.
Look for petition volunteers at the ballpark and feel free to stop by with any questions.
#SBLWarriors
From choir and band to dance and drama, 525 of SBL students found opportunities to perform, create, and grow through Fine Arts this school year.
Band students participated in concert band, marching band, jazz band, honor bands, and solo/ensemble festivals. Choir students performed in concert choir, show choir, honor choirs, and solo/ensemble events, with especially strong participation in 5th grade choir, high school choir, and show choir. Our dance team performed throughout the year, hosted the Western Iowa Dance Critique, and competed at festivals and state competition. Twenty-three students took part in school plays, and excitement is already building for SBL's first musical production in more than 20 years—The Little Mermaid!
Thank you to our students, directors, coaches, and families for making Fine Arts such an important part of the SBL experience.

Baseballs and softball fans,,
We have spent significant dollars to build high-quality fields for our athletes. Help us protect it. Sunflower seeds are extremely harmful to natural turf. There are signs up as you enter that say no seeds. While you are not on the field as a fan, wind over time will blow them on to the field. Below are reasons why seeds are harmful to the turf. Thank you for your cooperation in protecting our investment.
-Fiber Wear: Accumulated shells create friction and abrasive wear on the synthetic grass blades.
-Drainage Issues: The shells slip into the crumb rubber or sand infill, blocking the field's drainage systems.
-Bacterial & Mold Growth: Unlike natural dirt and grass, synthetic turf cannot naturally decompose organic matter. Decaying seeds and shells trap moisture, leading to mold, fungi, and harmful bacteria.
-Pest Attraction: Discarded shells draw birds and rodents, which can physically tear up the turf and leave behind harmful droppings. (This is a real concern as we have rodents due to being near a field.)
