Let's take a closer look!

Throughout the fall, we'll be highlighting different parts of the proposed primary school project and sharing updates along the way.

First up: the overall scope. The proposal includes a new primary school addition connected to the existing elementary school, creating shared spaces and a secured entrance designed to enhance student safety.

We're excited to continue the conversation in the weeks ahead!

The Morningside University School of Visual and Performing Arts held their annual All-State Choral Camp Aug. 3-5 in Eppley Auditorium. SBL had four high school vocalists participate in the camp: Izzy Carrell, Jax Sedgwick, Roxy Dean & LeOra Murdock.

At this camp, the students had the opportunity to learn the Iowa All-State Chorus repertoire of music and had fun doing it! The camp concert was conducted by Dr. Paul von Kampen, the new director of choral activities at Morningside University.

The students will be auditioning in October for a chance to be accepted into the Iowa All-State Chorus. Good luck to them!!

Students in preschool through 12th grade may need updated immunizations, health records, or other required documentation before the first day of school. Taking care of this early prevents any delays once the year gets going. Visit the school nurse page at https://sites.google.com/a/sblschools.com/nurse/home, click on your student's school building (found in the upper right-hand corner of the page), and follow the instructions there. Questions? Contact the building RN directly.
