Square graphic on a white background. At the top, the Sanborn “S” appears inside a navy bell with ringing lines on both sides. Below it, navy text reads “Sanborn Regional School District” and “Weekly Newsletters.” Three icons along the bottom show alphabet blocks, books, and a graduation cap. Gray accents and a navy wave complete the design.

Kindergarten students could be seen throughout the building having a blast during our Nursery Rhyme Olympics! Activities included the Humpty Dumpty Egg and Spoon Race, Little Bo Peep Sheep Round-Up, Hickory Dickory Rhyme Match, and Jack Be Nimble Candlestick Hurdles. There were smiles, giggles, teamwork, and—most importantly—tons of learning! It was a wonderful day of learning and fun was had by all!
