Before the first experiment, there's the first introduction. Mrs. Hudnall's Biology I students at South Dearborn High School spent day one getting to know their new teacher — background, fun facts, and all — before diving into the syllabus and setting up Google Classroom.
They also covered lab safety basics, because no beaker gets touched until the rules are clear. 🧪
A good year in the lab starts with a good first day in the classroom.

Dear SD Community Stakeholders,
We are excited to introduce a new feature in the next volume of the Knightly News called Alumni Spotlight! Each week, we will recognize and celebrate the accomplishments, careers, and life stories of graduates who are part of the rich history of South Dearborn Community School Corporation, including alumni from Aurora High School, Dillsboro High School, Moores Hill High School, and South Dearborn High School.
As part of this initiative, we are also building a comprehensive alumni database to reconnect with graduates, share district news, celebrate alumni achievements, and invite former students to future events and opportunities.
We encourage all alumni to complete our Alumni Registry form so we can stay connected, preserve our proud traditions, and celebrate the lasting impact our graduates continue to make in their communities and beyond.

Save the date: SDHS Freshman Orientation is Thursday, July 23rd, from 10:00am to 1:30pm at South Dearborn High School.
Incoming freshmen will get a chance to walk their schedule, meet STARS Peer Mentors, and get comfortable with South Dearborn High School before the first bell rings. It's the easiest way to make day one feel like just another day.
Questions? Contact the SDHS guidance office.

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.
