With state testing behind us, ABO middle schoolers have been busy creating projects, games, and cup towers to apply their previously learned math concepts. The 8th graders created Trash to Treasure projects to review surface area and volume


The 7th graders created games of probability and hosted our 2nd annual Probability Carnival for our elementary students.










The 6th graders stacked cups to review measures of center and variability.
Overall, it has been a fun and educational time for us all!

We look forward to seeing you there!

It's Teacher Appreciation Week!

Second Grade Super Spellers of the week!

FINAL REMINDER TO GET YOUR ATHLETICS PHYSICAL TURNED INTO THE OFFICE (PHYSICAL DATE MAY 6TH)
Dr. Jalen Lamb and Dr. Jenna Wickersham, along with other medical professionals, will be providing free (no-cost) sports physicals for student-athletes entering grades 6–12 at Sully Buttes High School. This opportunity is made possible through a partnership with the Rural Family Medicine Residency and is designed to help ensure all student-athletes have the required health checks completed before participating in sports.
The physicals are scheduled for May 6. We ask that each student-athlete pick up a Physical/Pre-Participation Packet from the school office or print the packet at home by visiting: https://www.abo.k12.sd.us/page/forms
Please return the completed packet to the school within the next few weeks. Paperwork can be turned in at the High School office at any time, and we will collect and have it ready for the day of the student’s physical.
To help the process run smoothly, we would like all paperwork submitted the week before the physicals. We would like to remind parents to please complete the SDHSAA HEALTH HISTORY FORM that is included in the packet. This is an often-missed piece of paperwork that the doctors need completed.
Having the paperwork completed and submitted ahead of time will help us move through the physicals more efficiently on Wednesday, May 6, and allow our physicians and medical students to focus more on student care rather than paperwork.
