South Winn Transportation

South Winn will again no longer allow students to use the buses for transporting friends to birthday parties, sleepovers, or other activities. Only the students scheduled to ride our shuttle buses and route buses will be allowed. This is due to sports and the lack of available room on our buses.

Thank you,

Kris Einck, Superintendent

Thank you!

In honor of all the grandparents and the special bond they have with their grandchildren, we say thank you. Thank you for joining us as we celebrated the Eucharist at our annual Grandparent’s Day Mass on September 13th. A special thank you to Father Knipper for presiding over Mass and to Becky Searcy for accompanying the choir. Refreshments were served in the gym following Mass. Families completed a brief service project and toured the Ossian site.

Food Drive

Thank you to all students and families who contributed to our Food Drive in honor of St. Teresa of Calcutta. Collected items were donated to the Calmar Greater Area Food Pantry. Between the Ossian and Spillville sites, approximately 200 canned goods were donated, along with dry goods and personal hygiene items.

School Leadership Team

We’ve recently established a School Leadership Team with representatives from various grade levels within our school community. Our primary focus has been digging deeper into the needs assessment conducted last year, which has served as the foundation for setting strategic goals for our school. One of our goals is to improve communication. Please help us by taking this survey before the end of September. Everyone's opinion is important so we are hoping to have lots of people participate in our brief survey. Thank you.
