On behalf of the entire Yankton School District team, I am happy to welcome you to the start of another great school year! Whether you are new to our community or returning, we are delighted to have you as part of our school family.

Our commitment to excellence in education remains steadfast as we embark on a journey filled with growth, learning, and achievement. Together, we will create a nurturing environment where each student can thrive academically, socially, and emotionally.

As your superintendent, I am dedicated to ensuring that every child receives a high-quality education that prepares them for success in an ever-changing world. Our talented educators and staff are here to support and inspire your children to reach their fullest potential.

Communication and collaboration are key to our shared success. Please do not hesitate to reach out to us with any questions, concerns, or ideas throughout the year. Together, we can make a positive difference in the lives of our students.

Please continue to follow our progress on Trailhead Learning Center, which will open in August of 2025.  The following link will provide updated photos and information pertaining to Trailhead Learning Center “Where the Journey Begins”: Early Childhood Development Center

Thank you for entrusting us with your child's education. Here's to a fantastic 2024-2025 school year ahead filled with learning, discovery, and memorable experiences.
