✨ EVERY CARDINAL, EVERY DAY ✨
Attendance matters, every day is a chance to rise!

At SSC Schools, we know students do better when they show up. Strong attendance builds routines, relationships, and success.

✨ CADA CÁRDENAL, CADA DÍA ✨

¡La asistencia importa — y hace una gran diferencia!

En las Escuelas de South Sioux City, creemos que cada día es una oportunidad para aprender, crecer y avanzar. Cuando los estudiantes asisten con regularidad, desarrollan rutinas fuertes, crean buenas relaciones y se mantienen encaminados hacia el éxito.

At South Sioux City Community Schools, we are all learners — and listening is part of learning. Following the May 2025 bond election, we’re asking our school community to take a short survey to help us understand the outcome and guide our next steps.

Your feedback matters. Whether you voted in the election or not, your input will help us learn more about the priorities, concerns, and values that shape our community. The results will be used by district leaders and the Board of Education as we plan for the future of our facilities and continue providing safe, modern, and effective learning environments for all students.

The survey takes just a few minutes to complete and can be found at ssccards.org/survey
. Please take a moment to share your perspective before the survey closes on Sunday, November 23.

Thank you for your time and for being an active voice in shaping the future of South Sioux City Community Schools.

Partnerships That Make a Difference 💪❤️🖤

This week, South Sioux City Community Schools completed district-wide health screenings — and it couldn’t have been done without the amazing teamwork of our community partners!

🩺 Nursing students from Briar Cliff University and Western Iowa Tech Community College joined forces with our district nurses to provide professional, caring service to our students.

👓 Vision screenings were made possible through the dedication of the Lions Clubs of Wakefield and Tekamah, whose volunteers continue to make a real impact across Siouxland.

Thank you to everyone who helped make these screenings a success! Together, we’re ensuring our Cardinals stay healthy, safe, and ready to learn.

Student Spotlight On Tuesday, August 26, Year 13 Cardinal House student Donovan Bacon had the opportunity to explore his entrepreneurial goals with the guidance of Terrance Walker, owner of FYVE Established, a custom printing business located on Floyd Boulevard in Sioux City. Terrance dedicated several hours to mentoring Donovan—sharing insights on design software, ordering merchandise, and the process of printing and pressing custom decals. This real-world experience offered Donovan valuable skills as he works toward his dream of running his own custom apparel business. We extend our sincere appreciation to Terrance for supporting our students and helping cultivate future leaders and entrepreneurs. 📍 Community members can learn more by visiting FYVE Established to support this outstanding local business!
