Race for Education Update
11/11 Update
The day is finally here! Today we will celebrate the hard work of our kids and our community in raising funds to support our school. This year we reached for the stars with a new goal of $65,000! We haven't met our goal yet, but we have come very close. So far we have raised $58,483 or 90% of our target.
THANK YOU to our many donors, volunteers, students, staff, home & school association, and everyone involved with coordinating Race for Education. This event would not have been possible without your support!
The donation link will remain open for anyone who would still like to help us reach our goal. (Link HERE)
Fall Parent Teacher Conferences
November 4, 2026
Dear Parents and Guardians,
Fall Conferences are scheduled for Monday and Tuesday, November 23 and 24.
There will be no school for students 11/23 through 11/27. Students return to school on Monday, November 30th.
You will be using an online scheduling tool (Sign Up Genius) to select and schedule your conference time with your child’s teacher or teachers. All conferences will be held in-person.
Each teacher will email a link for you to sign up for conferences at 3:45 PM on Wednesday, November 11. If applicable, our regular education teachers will coordinate conference times with special education teachers.
Please note that we have a limited amount of time for parent-teacher conferences during these two days, and we can schedule only one conference time per student. In order to ensure that teachers have time to meet with all their students’ parents/guardians, we ask that parents and guardians work together to plan a common time to confer with the teachers if possible.
If you would like to schedule a time with a special area teacher (Art, CBL, PE, Music, or Instrumental), please contact the teacher directly to schedule a time to meet.
Thank you for taking the time to attend your child’s conference. Parent-Teacher conferences are a very important opportunity to communicate valuable information about our students, and we look forward to seeing you!
Sincerely,
Mr. Simek and the Sabold Team

Car Line Reminders:
STUDENT SAFETY IS OUR NUMBER ONE PRIORITY!
No left turns into the lot. Cutting in line is not nice, so please don’t do it!
Enter the queue, remain in your car, and follow staff directions.
Which lane are you in?
RIGHT SIDE - Pick up/Drop off. LEFT SIDE - Exiting vehicles/pulling through.
Pull all the way up – staff will guide you.
Waiting cars line up along the curb. Moving vehicles flow to the left lane.
Watch out for buses! They enter/exit using the straight driveway and move alongside/behind the school.
No cars are permitted to enter the straight driveway during arrival/dismissal. Please be respectful of this important safety procedure!
Sabold students and staff thank you for keeping us all safe!

In the event of an emergency school closing due to inclement weather:
Communication informing parents of the closure will be sent from the district.
Sabold will utilize the emergency dismissal cards parents completed at the beginning of the school year to determine how students will be dismissed.
Any changes to these dismissal procedures should be communicated directly to the classroom teacher. (Please note, teachers may not see an email with dismissal changes during the school day.)
Sometimes when school is closed due to inclement weather (snow day, for example), SSD will operate on a "Virtual Learning Day" model. Information about district-wide Virtual Learning Days can be found using the link below.
