Spring has sprung and we are heading into the final stretch and the 4th quarter. This time of year is great for everyone, but especially for all of us in school! The students are excited to be back outside playing (especially this year) and the staff is equally excited to get outside and rejuvenate after a long winter stuck inside!

Every spring we start focusing on and taking some time to prepare our students in grades 3-5 for the Iowa Schools Assessment for Student Proficiency. The testing window for Leeds will be from April 27th through May 5th. We will be sending reminders out as we get closer to the date, so keep an eye out for any information or tips provided to help for a successful testing experience for your child.

Have a great month,

Mr. Koch

Do you have school fees that need to be paid? Visit www.siouxcityschools.org and click on the “Parents” tab to pay your fees online. On the drop-down menu of the “Parents” tab, you can select “Pay Curriculum and Meal Fees.” Both links will take you to “My School Bucks” to complete the payment transaction. Payment for curriculum resource fees can be made under the “School Store” by selecting “Categories” and then “Curriculum Fees.” If you have any questions, please contact our school’s bookkeeper. Thank you.

Before next fall, make sure your child’s immunizations, dental screenings, and vision screenings are up-to-date. According to law, there are requirements for children entering kindergarten, third grade, seventh grade, ninth grade, and twelfth grade. Visit our website to learn more.
