Computer monitor that says "Are you ready for a remote learning day?"

Winter weather is inevitable. It's time to start making plans now!

The SFSD will use Remote Learning when winter weather can be predicted in advance and when technology devices (Chromebook or iPad) can be sent home the day prior.  All students have practiced in the classroom and are familiar with how to access school work through Canvas so that learning can continue. Additional information can be found in this attachment.

The SFSD makes winter weather decisions with support from the Lead Forecasters at the National Weather Service, City of Sioux Falls Street Crews, Police, SBI, and by driving neighborhood routes to schools. Make sure your contact information is updated at your child’s school to receive important emails, texts, and phone calls when schedules change.

Please have a plan in place for all possible scenarios – late starts, early dismissals, cancellations, and remote learning. While we hope there are few adjustments needed this winter, South Dakota weather always includes some surprises!
