This morning the Board of Directors of the Sergeant Bluff-Luton Community School District accepted the resignation of Bill McKelvey as middle school principal, effective immediately. An interim middle school principal, Dr. LuAnn Haase, has been retained for the remainder of the 2023-24 school year. More information will be shared about Dr. Haase with our middle school families.
The District is aware that there are some social media and other communications out in the community regarding this matter. While the District would like to share all the facts regarding this matter, and clear up any misinformation that may be circulating, it is barred by law from discussing confidential personnel and/or student matters. What the District can disclose to the community is that in all personnel and student matters, District policy, procedures and Iowa law are followed under the appropriate guidance from legal counsel and other outside personnel, as necessary. This matter was no exception. The Board would like to express its continued trust and confidence in Superintendent, Chad Janzen, and convey its appreciation for the efforts of all District personnel as they work to transition leadership in the middle school. The Board is confident that this will continue to be a successful and rewarding year for the students and staff of Sergeant Bluff-Luton.

Joe Beckman spoke to students, by building, in grades 3-12 today. He brings a positive message to students. He shared 5 themes with them:
1. Love YOU
2. Push Through
3. Just Look Up!
4. Fail On
5. Yeah Toast
I encourage you to talk to your children about what they remember from today.
One of my favorites is Just Look Up! He talks about the power of human connection. Disconnect from our devices and connect with each other.
Attorney from KSB Law was at school today to talk to MS/HS students about digital citizenship/online safety.

The High School Staff is ready to rock the 2023-2024 school year!! #greatstaff #greatstudents #warriorproud
Due to the extension of the "Excessive Heat Warning" through Thursday night, with the best interest of our football players' safety, we will be switching the order of the Thursday routine. The team meal and weekly goal setting will begin at 5:45, followed by practice/walk-through at 7:00.
PLEASE ENCOURAGE YOUR YOUNG MEN TO HYDRATE to prepare for Friday's game beginning now, if they haven't already. Every player should be drinking at least a gallon of water each night between practice ending and the time they go to bed. All athletes should be drinking at least 20 ounces of water as soon as they wake up in the morning, and every player should be avoiding energy drinks and other caffeinated beverages within 24 hours of competition to prevent cramping.
Monday morning we celebrated employees who worked for the district for 5, 10, 15, 20 and 25 years. We want to give special recognition to Craig Golden for 35 years of service to the students of Sergeant Bluff. Thank you Craig!
