Today, across South Sioux City Community Schools, stories are being opened, imaginations are growing, and the love of reading is shining bright.
Reading isn’t just about words on a page, it’s about discovery.
It’s about connection.
It’s about building confident, curious Cardinals.
From our youngest learners to our high school readers, every page turned is a step toward opportunity. And thanks to our incredible teachers, staff, and families who nurture a love of literacy every single day, our students are learning that books can take them anywhere.
At SSC, we don’t just celebrate reading today, we live it all year long.

📚❤️ ¡Feliz Día de Read Across America! ❤️📚
Hoy, en todas las Escuelas Públicas de South Sioux City, se abren historias, crece la imaginación y el amor por la lectura brilla con fuerza.
Leer no se trata solo de palabras en una página-
se trata de descubrir.
Se trata de conectar.
Se trata de formar Cardenales seguros, curiosos y preparados para el futuro.
Desde nuestros estudiantes más pequeños hasta nuestros lectores de secundaria, cada página que se pasa es un paso hacia nuevas oportunidades. Y gracias a nuestros increíbles maestros, personal y familias que fomentan el amor por la lectura todos los días, nuestros estudiantes están aprendiendo que los libros pueden llevarlos a cualquier lugar.
📖✨ En SSC, no solo celebramos la lectura hoy, la vivimos durante todo el año.

📚⏰ Attendance Matters!
Every tardy, early check-out, and absence adds up.

Every minute counts when it comes to reading on grade level and student success.
Thank you for partnering with us to help students arrive on time and stay all day—every day.❤️📖

The Standard Response Protocol is based not on individual scenarios but on consistent response to any given scenario. SRP demands a specific vocabulary but also allows for great flexibility. The premise is simple - there are five specific actions that can be performed during an incident.
• Secure is followed by the Directive: "Get Inside. Lock Outside Doors" and is the protocol used to safeguard students and staff within a building.
• Lockdown is followed by "Locks, Lights, Out of Sight" and is the protocol used to secure individual rooms and keep students quiet and in place.
• Evacuate is always followed by a location, and is used to move students and staff from one location to a different location in or out of the building.
• Shelter is always followed by a type and a method and is the protocol for group and self protection.
• Hold is a "hold" in the classrooms. Students and teachers are directed to stay in their rooms and clear the hallways. This is typically used for medical emergencies.
Throughout the school year, students will have the opportunity to participate in practice drills for each of the Standard Response Protocols. On Thursday, September 25th E.N. Swett students practiced evacuating the building. During an evacuation drill, students are provided the experience of going to our secondary site. Students did a wonderful job of following the protocol guided by our Building Safety Team.
Thank you for all your support and a wonderful start to the school year.
Mrs. Major and E.N. Swett Staff
La seguridad de nuestros estudiantes y personal escolar son los factores más importantes a un exitoso distrito escolar. Las Escuelas de la Comunidad de South Sioux City están comprometidas a asegurar que nuestras escuelas estén seguras y que nuestro personal esté preparado. Para realzar esto, en 2017 nos movimos a un Protocolo de Respuesta Estándar (SRP) llamado "I Love U Guys". Sentimos que este protocolo nos da las herramientas para estar aún mejor preparados para eventos del clima, incendios, accidentes, intrusos y otras amenazas a nuestros estudiantes y a la seguridad del personal.
El Protocolo de Respuesta Estándar está basado no en un escenario individual pero en respuesta consistente a cualquier escenario dado. SRP demanda un vocabulario específico pero también permite gran flexibilidad. La premisa es simple - hay cinco acciones específicas que pueden ser ejecutadas durante un incidente.
• Secure - Cierre es seguido por la directiva: "Entrar. Cierre las puertas exteriores" y es el protocolo usado para proteger a los estudiantes y el personal dentro del edificio.
• Lockdown - Confinamiento es seguido por "Cierre, Luces, Fuera de Vista" y es el protocolo usado para asegurar salones individuales y mantener a los estudiantes tranquilos en un lugar.
• Evacuate - Evacuar siempre es seguido por una ubicación, y es usado para mover a estudiantes y personal de un una ubicación a otra dentro o fuera del edificio.
• Shelter - Refugio siempre es seguido por un tipo y método y es el protocolo para protección individual o de grupo.
• Hold - Mantenerse en lugar es el "mantenerse en lugar" en su salón de clases. Los estudiantes y maestros son dirigidos a quedarse en sus salones de clases y despejar los pasillos. Esto se utiliza típicamente para emergencias médicas.
A lo largo del año escolar, los estudiantes tendrán la oportunidad de participar en simulacros de práctica para cada uno de los protocolos de respuesta estándar. El jueves 25 de septiembre, los estudiantes de E.N. Swett practicaron la evacuación del edificio. Durante un simulacro de evacuación, los estudiantes tienen la experiencia de ir a nuestro sitio secundario. Los estudiantes hicieron un trabajo maravilloso al seguir el protocolo guiado por nuestro Equipo de Seguridad del Edificio.
Gracias por todo su apoyo y un maravilloso comienzo del año escolar.
La Sra. Major y E.N. Personal de SWETT
