Ever watch a first-grader organize a desk for the first time? Mrs. McNamara's class at Aurora Elementary School gave it their best shot on day one — unpacking supplies, finding a spot for everything, and storing the extras in the classroom cabinets.
It looks simple, but it's the first step toward a year of taking care of their own space.

Do not forget to register ahead of the new school year beginning next week!
We're asking all South Dearborn families to have registration wrapped up by Friday, July 31st, so classrooms, teacher assignments, and schedules are ready to go when students walk in the following week.
Why it matters: schedules and teacher assignments go out only after registration is complete, so the sooner it's done, the sooner you'll know. You'll need proof of residency on hand as part of the process. If you're stuck, call your school office to set up an appointment — don't let a form hold up your student's first day.

South Dearborn Community School Corporation would like to gauge interest in a potential "Before Care" program for our elementary and middle school students that would run from 6:30 to 7:30am on school days. This program would offer a safe and supervised environment for students prior to the start of the school day for a minimal fee. Please note that breakfast will continue to be served beginning at 7:30am, as it has been in the past.
At this time, we are simply collecting information to determine the level of interest in this service. If your family may benefit from the Before Care program, please take a moment to complete the short Google Form through the link below:

Additionally, the district is exploring the possibility of offering a preschool program for three- and four-year-old children starting in the 2026–2027 school year. We are in the early stages of planning and would like to gather community input to better understand the need and interest in such a program.
