Wellness Wednesday!
We’re excited to introduce Wellness Wednesdays at Sioux Central. Each week we’ll share simple tips that support student well-being and success both in and out of the classroom.
With ISASP testing coming up next week, this week’s Wellness Wednesday focuses on helping students feel prepared and confident.
Sioux Central students in grades 6–11 will participate in ISASP testing from March 17–20. The district will follow a late start schedule each day during the testing window. Students should report directly to their testing rooms at 8:20 AM, and regular classes will resume at 10:20 AM.
Simple wellness habits like getting a good night’s sleep, eating breakfast, staying hydrated, and maintaining regular routines can help students feel focused and ready to do their best. Snacks will also be delivered to testing rooms to help students stay energized during testing.
Thank you for supporting our students as they prepare for a successful testing week! #SiouxCentralRebels

Another month, another chance to recognize our fabulous students! We loved celebrating those who show us what it means to be Safe, Respectful, Responsible, and Caring every single day. Keep up the great work! ⭐
Students were excited to bring home their new books, and the smiles said it all. Thanks to the incredible support from our students, teachers, parents/guardians, friends, families, and community members, so many books found their way into the hands of our readers. We also had some fun prizes along the way, making the event even more exciting for our students! A huge THANK YOU to everyone who participated, donated, and helped make this event possible. Your support helps inspire a love of reading and makes a real difference for our students! #SiouxCentralRebels #BuildingRebels #BookBlast
Today’s DeliSH feature from Chef Nataley brought some bold flavors and a little crunch to the menu.
The spotlight was on Korean Beef Stir-Fry, served over white rice and loaded with savory ground beef, crisp vegetables, and a rich Korean-inspired sauce that balanced sweet and savory in every bite. Alongside it were crispy crab rangoons, golden on the outside with a creamy filling inside, paired with a tangy sweet and sour sauce for dipping.
To wrap it all up, the meal finished with classic cheesecake topped with strawberry sauce. Smooth, creamy, and sitting on a buttery graham cracker crust with that bright pop of strawberry on top.
A pretty solid lineup coming out of the DeliSH kitchen today. Nice work, Chef Nataley!!! #SiouxCentralRebels #RebelLegends #NoOrdinaryRebels
