  GENERAL:

  - From the Sioux County Sheriff’s Office:

  school hours. We’re asking students to drive safely, watch their speed, and limit distractions. Some of the reported areas include places where grade school children are walking, which raises serious safety concerns. We will have extra patrol in those areas to stay ahead of this before something tragic happens.
  - Thank You, Student Body! In addition to the recognition and accolades our boys' basketball team earned in Des Moines, we want to extend a huge thank you to you, the student body! On several occasions, our administrative team was approached by staff and security at Wells Fargo Arena, who all praised your behavior. You were described as respectful, polite, and even willing to assist when asked. One day, we were told that you were the best student body they had seen! Thank you for representing Western so well at the State Tournament. Your positive attitude and sportsmanship made a lasting impression, and we are incredibly proud of how you showed up.
