Senior Spotlight: Dylan Khalil
An Article by Staff Member Amanda Bradley
|
|
Dylan Khalil is a gifted, but humble, student, and therefore well-deserving of a spotlight! From school work to sports, Dylan has a way of making everything he does look effortless. He works hard when necessary, but he just has this easy going demeanor that I don’t often see in students (especially as a math teacher). Dylan was such an all around great student that I nominated him for the junior class math award last year.
It probably goes without saying that Dylan is also thriving in the remote learning environment. I’m sure he’d prefer to be back in school in person, but he is making the best of things. Last year during remote learning, he attended live classes, completed all of his work, and always responded to comments in a timely manner. Dylan is an extremely responsible and mindful student.
Prior to the shift to remote learning, I often saw Dylan in the halls after school, preparing for practice. I’m a firm believer in the benefits of participating in extracurricular activities. At Sanborn, Dylan participates in cross country, basketball, and track. I think Dylan is trying to make the most of his high school years, and is reaping all the benefits of participating in such activities. Again, Dylan seems to manage that school/sports balance with ease. Simply put, Dylan is a student that has his act together.
I have no doubt that Dylan’s intellectuality, independence, dedication, and flexibility will not only help him find great success at the college level, but also, in life. I hope you have a great senior year, Dylan, and I wish you all the best in your future endeavors. You are going to do big things! I know it.

College and Career Planning Kickoff for Juniors
|
|
Sanborn Regional High School will be administering the ASVAB assessment instrument, which is part of the ASVAB Career Exploration Program (CEP) on December 9, 2020 at 8:00am. All juniors will be participating in this assessment. This test is an invaluable tool to help your student with his/her future educational and career plans.
The ASVAB CEP will help your student:
- To learn about themselves and the world of work
- Explore occupations in line with their interests and skills
- Develop an effective strategy to realize their career and education goals
The school counselors will use the results of this assessment during the college and career planning activities to help students find colleges and programs that best meet their interests.
One of the ASVAB scores is the military entrance score/ Armed Forces Qualification Test (AFQT) which your student can use to explore career options in the military. Even if your child’s scores are released to the military, by no means is your child obligated to military service.
Your child’s ASVAB CEP scores will be released to the military unless you choose not to have their scores released by completing this form.
You may also opt your child out of the testing all together by completing this form.

Nurses To Run Giving Tree For Families in Need
|
|
With Halloween behind us the Holidays are quickly heading our way requiring much preparation.
This year Sanborn School District will be hosting a giving tree . All children living in the household of those who choose to participate are eligible to receive gifts through the giving tree. If your family is in need this year and you are interested in receiving gifts please let us know the name, age, gender and a few gift requests for each child living in your home. The names of those participating are completely confidential.
Each gift request should follow the guidelines of something you want, something you need, something to wear and something to read. We request a $25 limit per gift. You can e-mail your list to the school nurse, send a list into the nurse’s office via a sealed envelope with your student or call us with your list. The nurses across the district are organizing this together this year so if you have students in multiple buildings you can send your list with all of your children to any one of us.
Please feel free to call or email with any questions. We need to have all gift requests in by Nov 23rd. For planning purposes, if you want to receive gifts from the giving tree we would appreciate a quick note as soon as possible just to let us know so we can keep an eye out for incoming lists.
If you want to purchase gifts for the families within our community that have needs this year through the giving tree watch your e-mail the first week of Dec as we will be sending out a district wide Sign up Genius.
Thanks,
The Sanborn School Nurses

Also note that It is important to sign your kids up using our online system, even if you're not 100% sure if they will play, or even if their sport isn't starting right now.

PTO Clothing & Shoe Donation Bins
|
|
When you drop your unwanted clothing and shoes off in these bins, the SRHS PTO gets paid based on the weight of the clothing! This is a really easy way to help our school. All PTO proceeds go directly back to programming and scholarships that directly benefit our students. NOTE: Shoes must go in a separate bin.
Did you know? From April of 2015 - May 2017, this fundraiser has helped us raise nearly $2400.00 for the PTO. Help us double that number by sharing this opportunity with your friends, your family, and your neighbors!
