SVDN Education Notice – Sioux Valley School Reopening Schedule (2026.09.18)

To Parents/Guardians and students,

As we navigate the complex realities of repairs to the middle years building, School Administration is making necessary adjustments to start dates.
The absolute safety and preparedness of our students and staff will dictate our timelines.
Please review the following critical updates for your children:
Grade 3 to Grade 8 (middle years): POSTPONED
The start date for all students in Grades 3 to Grade 8 has been postponed until further notice. We will provide a direct update to families/community members as soon as a new start date is confirmed for students in Grade 3 to Grade 8.
Headstart to Grade 2/3 (early years): starts on Monday
We are excited to officially welcome our Early Years students this Monday, September 21, 2026. Early years classes will remain safely in their own designated building.
Recess & Lunch: Since this building is fully self-contained, these students will have full, safe access to their own playground. We are also thrilled to announce that their kitchen is fully operational and will start the hot lunch program on Monday.

There will be NO Before and Afterschool Program offered at this time.
Grades 9-12 (High School): NO CHANGE
High School classes are continuing as per usual in their designated areas.

We know that delayed start dates create challenges, and we sincerely thank you for your patience and support as we prioritize the safety of your children above all else.
We will see our Early Years and High School students on Monday!
