The first Educator Rising Chapter meeting scheduled for tomorrow will be rescheduled. Date and time TBD. Stay tuned for more information.
Good evening Bison families. If we don't have Spring fever after these bitterly cold days, I am not sure when we would. The temperatures are to be extreme again tonight and tomorrow morning. For this reason, the Hot Springs School District will be CLOSED again tomorrow, Wednesday, February 19th. We will plan on a normal start, full day on Thursday. As soon as possible, we will share plans on when/if these snow days can be made up. Please stay tuned for announcements for any activities that were scheduled for tomorrow. Again, stay warm and stay safe!
Dakota Dreams Career Exploration Camps for middle schoolers are back
The popular Dakota Dreams Career Exploration Camps for incoming 7th and 8th graders will be hosted again this summer! The free, five-day career camps will be held at Black Hills State, Dakota State, Northern State, South Dakota Mines, South Dakota State, and the University of South Dakota. While at camp, students will explore careers, meet professionals, and dive into hands-on activities that unleash creativity and ignite passion. Each university experience is paired with an experience at a nearby technical college. Each camp will accept roughly 100 participants. The deadline to apply is March 31. The application period is now open and will run through the end of March.

Due to the cold temperatures and potential conditions of the roads tomorrow morning (Tuesday, February 18th), Hot Springs Schools will have a 10:00am late start. Busses will run two hours delayed from their original pick up times. Stay warm and most importantly, safe.
It is National FFA Week. So glad our students have the opportunity to be involved. Wednesday is Ag Teacher Appreciation Day. Thank you to Mrs. White.
Love when the band plays at home games.
Our parents and community are invited to a HSSD Community Discussion on February 25th from 6:30-8:00pm in the Elementary Cafeteria. Topics will include: bullying, student safety, and policy. Our goal is for an open and honest conversation ultimately helping determine efforts moving forward for school, home, and the community.
Bison win on this match. Thank you cheerleaders for being here.
Please come support our girls today as our wrestlers have a home meet. We are hosting a number of teams and it looks to be great competition. The invite starts at 5pm tonight.
Plan to come a little early and cheer on the middle school boys basketball team taking on St. Thomas More in the Tays.
Good luck to both our wrestlers and our middle school basketball players.
It sounds like we had students interested in the Beginner's Ham Radio Class. Awesome!! The next class is scheduled for March 11th. Stay tuned for details.

Assistant Principal Mr. Reynolds was in attendance at the Rotary meeting this morning to share information about the spelling bees. We thank the Rotary Club for supporting the spelling bee and making it happen for both the elementary and middle school levels.
Happy early Valentine's Day to our Bison families.
Here’s the information for Friday’s double header. Due to lack of available basketball officials, we had to cancel the C-level games for both the girls and boys. As a result, here’s the schedule for Friday:
JV girls’ at 2:00pm
Boys JV at 3:30
Girls Varsity at 5:00
Boys Varsity at 6:30.
These games are all on a rolling schedule. Games can and will start earlier if we can.
We would like to remind Native American parents/guardians of pre-K -12th grades to please fill out the 506 forms that you received and return them to the school. The forms were sent in Tuesday folders or mailed.
We appreciate you doing this. Our program is updating and making sure all our Native American students have these forms in their cumulative folders. By filling these out, your students are able to get services from our Title VI program.
10 minutes to tip off
Warm up for our girls
We had special guests at the board mtg. Congrats again to all of our elementary and middle school spelling bee winners.
