This week, Ms. Dana Schubauer presented the Lead-Deadwood Elementary Shining Light to Ms. Maura Nistler.
"Ms. Nistler started with our district in the middle of the year last year which was really difficult, but she did an outstanding job. She even decided to come back this year! Ms. Nistler always comes with a smile, meets our students where they are, and creates engaging lessons that her students love every day. She is such a kind and wonderful person to work with. "
We want to thank the Forest Service and Smokey Bear for taking time out of their busy schedules to come to the Elementary School today to talk to the students about forest fire safety!

Ms. Elizabeth Frith presented this week’s Lead-Deadwood Elementary Shining Light to Ms. Dana Schubauer.
“Dana Schubauer is a shining light in our school. Every morning she comes into the cafeteria and writes down our breakfast and lunch menus in a fun & creative way. She then draws a challenging word puzzle on the white board. She may not know this, but many people visit the lunchroom throughout the day specifically to see her new puzzle and try to figure it out. Ms. Schubauer can be found each morning in the lunchroom greeting students as they enter the building to begin their day. She has stepped in and helped me with many different tasks this school year. Ms. Schubauer shows all students love everyday with her common sense approach and fantastic sense of humor.”
Congratulations, Ms. Schubauer!
Last week, Miss Brenda Cupp presented the Lead-Deadwood Elementary Shining Light to Miss Elizabeth Frith.
“Miss Frith has created a wonderful lunchroom environment for both the students and staff. The lunches are absolutely amazing! If you haven’t tried a school lunch this year, I highly recommend that you do. I want to thank Miss Frith for her hard work and dedication to the wellbeing of our kids’ nutrition, as well as introducing them to new foods that they may have never even heard of.”
Congratulations, Miss Frith!

5:00 - JV will play first

Mr. Nepodal
First off - my apologies for another message, text and email but due to transportation issues from Woonsocket/Wessington Springs/Sanborn Central, we will have to move our homecoming football game to 5:30. This will still allow all students and groups to participate in our homecoming festivities in the afternoon and gives time for our football team, cheerleaders, and all game personnel to be ready to go for the game as well. Again - sorry for the changes - we are doing our best to make this work for everyone on our end as well as our visitors.
Mr. Nepodal
Due to a conflict in times with homecoming festivities - our home football game for Friday, Oct. 6 (tomorrow night) has been changed to a 6:00 start time. It was originally planned for 5:00 but the two schools/team involved have agreed to move it back to 6:00 to help us out with homecoming. Please pass the word as much as you can. Thank you.
Mr. Nepodal
The HSVB game for next Tuesday, Oct. 10 will start at 6:00 - there is no C team being played that night - only JV and Varsity games. Thank you.
Mr. Nepodal
For today's MS volleyball game at Newcastle, we will have the following schedule:
4:30 - Maroon team will play 1st
5:30 - White team will play 2nd
6:30 - Gold team will play 3rd
Good luck Diggers!
Mr. Nepodal
Power is back on at Lead-Deadwood High School, and classes will resume tomorrow, Tuesday, October 3rd, at the regular time. Middle school exploratory classes will be held in their regular locations.
Please note that our HSFB for Friday, October 13 at Lakota tech will be start at 2:00. This is due to the fact that they do not have lights at their new facility yet. Please help pass the word. Thank you.
Mr. Nepodal
Just a reminder that our homecoming football game this Friday starts at 5:00 - NOT the traditional 6:00. We changed the time to help accommodate the distance/travel for our opponent from Woonsocket/Sanborn Central/Wessington Springs. Please help pass the word to come out earlier and cheer on the Diggers!
Mr. Nepodal
Just an FYI - with all the happenings in the high school building...I wanted to send out a message stating that we are still planning to have our MSVB vs. Belle Fourche on Tuesday at 4:00 in gym 2. Thank you.
Mr. Nepodal
