⚽ CARDINAL YOUTH SOCCER NEEDS YOU! ❤️🖤
Our Cardinal Youth Soccer League is getting ready to kick off, and we’re looking for parent and community volunteers to coach our 1st–5th grade teams!
You don’t have to be a soccer expert to make a difference. If you enjoy working with kids, encouraging teamwork, and helping young Cardinals build confidence and have fun, we’d love to have you on the sidelines! 🙌
One of the things that makes this league special is giving our students the opportunity to play alongside their classmates, represent their Cardinal community, and build friendships outside of the school day. Our volunteer coaches are a BIG part of making that experience possible. ❤️⚽
📣 What’s the commitment?
⚽ Grades 1–5
📅 Six Saturdays: September 12, 19 & 26 and October 3, 10 & 17
⏰ Approximately 1 hour and 30 minutes each Saturday
Whether you know the game well or simply want to be a positive role model for our kids, consider joining us as a coach!

⚽❤️ NEW OPPORTUNITY FOR OUR LITTLE CARDINALS! ❤️⚽
We’re excited to share the Cardinal Youth Soccer League, a new opportunity for SSC students in 1st–5th grade to get active, have fun, and represent their Cardinal community!
One of the best parts? Our kids get to play alongside their classmates and other SSC students! 🐦⚽ Instead of simply joining a team, they’ll have the chance to strengthen friendships from school, make new ones, and build an even greater sense of belonging and Cardinal Pride.
Youth activities like soccer are about so much more than the game. They help children develop teamwork, confidence, communication, responsibility, perseverance, and healthy habits, all while having FUN! ❤️
And when our students play together, cheer for one another, learn together, and grow together, we strengthen the connections that make SSC such a special community.
📣 Open to students in grades 1–5 from:
Cardinal Elementary • Covington Elementary • Dakota City Elementary • Harney Elementary • Lewis & Clark Elementary
📅 League Dates: September 12, 19 & 26 and October 3, 10 & 17
💲 Cost: $45
⚽ No matter their experience level, this is a great opportunity to get your child involved, connected, active, and proud to be a Cardinal!
Grab some classmates, build those friendships, and come play with us! ❤️🐦⚽
👉 Scan the QR code on the flyer to register.
Let’s grow our Cardinal community, one team, one friendship, and one Little Cardinal at a time!

Participar en actividades como el fútbol ofrece mucho más que aprender un deporte. Ayuda a nuestros niños a desarrollar trabajo en equipo, confianza, comunicación, responsabilidad, perseverancia y hábitos saludables, ¡mientras se divierten! ❤️
Cuando nuestros estudiantes juegan juntos, se apoyan, aprenden y crecen juntos, también fortalecemos los lazos que hacen tan especial a nuestra comunidad de SSC.

Families at South Sioux City High School who still need assistance completing the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) will have an opportunity to receive one-on-one support next week during scheduled help sessions with EducationQuest Foundation.
Victor, a FAFSA specialist with EducationQuest, will be on site at South Sioux City High School on Wednesday, January 14, and Thursday, January 15, to assist students and families with completing the FAFSA. Because these sessions are appointment-based, families are required to schedule a time in advance so that each appointment allows for focused, individualized support.
Completing the FAFSA is now a graduation requirement in Nebraska for high school seniors unless a waiver is submitted. In addition to meeting this requirement, the FAFSA serves as the gateway to federal, state, and college-based financial aid. Without a completed FAFSA, students will not receive financial aid packages from colleges or universities.
“We still have a significant number of seniors who need to complete the FAFSA or submit a waiver,” said Linda Swanson, school counselor at South Sioux City High School. “Roughly two-thirds of our senior class—about 200 students—still need to take this step. These sessions with EducationQuest are an excellent opportunity to get it done correctly and early.”
Swanson explained that families who have previously completed the FAFSA for an older sibling may already have an existing FSA ID, which can help move the process along. However, she emphasized that families should not feel discouraged or delay scheduling an appointment if they are unsure what information they have or where to begin.
“The important thing is to come in,” Swanson said. “If you don’t know something, if you’re stuck, or if you’re unsure what applies to your situation, that’s exactly why these appointments exist. Victor is here to help families work through the process step by step.”
During the sessions, laptops and Chromebooks will be available for use. Families are encouraged to bring their phones, as the FAFSA system may send verification or security codes during login. While tax information can be helpful, EducationQuest staff can still assist families who are missing documents or need help identifying what information is required.
One advantage of the EducationQuest sessions is the level of expertise available. Victor works exclusively with FAFSA completion and financial aid guidance and brings years of experience helping Nebraska families navigate the process. He is bilingual and provides assistance in both English and Spanish, making the sessions accessible to a broad range of families.
Because Victor is the sole specialist on site during these days, appointments are required. Families are encouraged to schedule early to ensure available time slots are filled and used efficiently. To make an appointment, families may call EducationQuest directly at 402-391-4033. Students may also contact the South Sioux City High School counseling office, where counselors or the school counseling secretary can assist with scheduling or answer questions.
While South Sioux City High School counselors will continue offering additional FAFSA support sessions later in the semester, Swanson stressed the value of completing the application as soon as possible.
“The earlier the FAFSA is completed, the earlier students can begin receiving financial aid offers from colleges,” she said. “Even if everything isn’t finalized in one sitting, starting now gives families time to follow up if additional information is needed.”
EducationQuest services are provided at no cost, and the organization also assists families with students who are already enrolled in college and need help completing the FAFSA. Additional details on preparing for a FAFSA appointment and required information can be found on this form. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1K50e7Ko8KpfrCIJMM96gVqQUY4lfsaBI/view?usp=sharing

Attention Seniors and Their Parents
Completing the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) is an important step in accessing grants, scholarships, and low-interest federal student loans for education after high school. Completing the FAFSA does not obligate students to accept aid, but not completing it can limit future options.
To support students and families, FAFSA help sessions will be available:
📅 Thursday, December 11
🕓 4:00–6:00 PM
📍 High School Library
📅 Tuesday, December 16
🕓 4:00–6:00 PM
📍 High School Library
If your senior has not yet completed the FAFSA, we encourage you to stop by and take advantage of this assistance before winter break.
