Education looks different for every child. At Hayward, we are blessed to have seven amazing individuals who devote themselves to making sure every child has the support they need to meet their potential.
Cheers to our Hayward special education teachers on National Special Education Teacher Day!! We appreciate all your hard work and dedication for our students! ❤
It's that time of year when it can feel like your kid catches every bug that is going around. Here is a quick reminder of the district policies about when to stay home.
Tomorrow is Thanksgiving and we have so many blessings to celebrate. Students in 502 counted their blessings with Ms. Rymerson this week. ❤️
A reminder that there is NO SCHOOL on Wednesday, November 27th, through Friday, November 29th. This season reminds us how much we have to be grateful for, especially our amazing students, staff, and families! Wishing you a wonderful Thanksgiving break!

Our schools are committed to instilling respect and appreciation for veterans among our students, helping them understand the importance of service and dedication. We invite our community to join us in expressing heartfelt gratitude and respect for our veterans.
Thank you to all our veterans for your service and sacrifice!
REMINDER! Sioux Falls School District schools and offices will be CLOSED on Monday, November 11, in honor of Veteran’s Day.
Thank you to all who have served! Especially SFSD staff members who proudly serve(d) in our schools and on the front lines. 🇺🇸

Tomorrow is election day. Please remember that Hayward Elementary is no longer a polling location. Please refer to the map below to help you determine where you need to report for voting. If you are unsure of where to go, call the county auditor office or visit https://www.minnehahacounty.gov/dept/au/election/precinct_info/AllCityPrecincts.pdf
Please remember the north driveway is closed before and after school to everyone except buses and daycare vans.
The buses need a lot of room to safely navigate and park.
In addition we want to keep everyone safe by reducing foot traffic in that back parking lot before and after school.
Don't forget to order your Hayward Spirit Wear by tomorrow night!
