Yesterday we held our October Capturing Kids’ Hearts (CKH) Assembly, where this month’s focus was on being Self-Directed — taking ownership of your learning, actions, and goals. 💪
💡 Being Self-Directed means:
Taking responsibility for your choices and behavior
Setting personal goals and working hard to achieve them
Staying motivated even when things get tough
Reflecting on how to improve and grow
We also celebrated nearly 70 students who earned a GPA above 3.0 this quarter! 📚👏
Their academic success is a great example of what it means to be self-directed in action.

Dear PK–4 Parents,
We’re excited to let you know that our Fall Party will be held on Thursday, October 30!
Students are welcome to bring their Halloween costumes to school if they choose, but please do not wear them to school in the morning. Around 1:30 p.m., students will change into their costumes and parade around to visit other classrooms. After this brief parade, students will change back into their school clothes and enjoy games, activities, and snacks in their classrooms.
Because we have many younger students who may be frightened by scary costumes, we ask that you avoid costumes that could be too frightening. Please use your best judgment. We want students to enjoy dressing up without having to refuse anyone from participating.
At this time, no volunteers are needed for the parties. If teachers need snacks or supplies, they will reach out to you directly.
Thank you for helping make this a fun and safe celebration for all our students!
Sincerely,
Mr. Moran
Principal
Seymour Community School District
Celebrate Red Ribbon Week, October 27–30! Each day brings a fun theme and a strong message: stay drug-free!

Seymour Community Schools to Offer “Skip the Trip” Iowa DOT Instruction Permit Knowledge Tests
Do you have a student ready to take the Iowa instruction permit knowledge test to start driving? Seymour Community Schools is now offering the test right here at Seymour High School as part of the Iowa Department of Transportation’s “Skip the Trip” program.
By partnering with the Iowa DOT, Seymour High School can save families time and the hassle of making a trip to a driver’s license service center for testing. Students will take the web-based test in a familiar environment, helping to reduce test anxiety and improve success rates.
Tests are supervised by trained school staff to ensure test integrity. Testing will be scheduled through the school.
Once a student passes the test, they will receive an email confirmation. The student must take that email, along with the required identification documents, to a driver’s license service center to receive their instruction permit.
If you have questions, please contact the school or have your student ask the secretaries in the office for more information.

As you know, Seymour CSD is a CKH school. During the month of September, our theme was Empathy. A student from each grade level was recognized by a teacher for showing empathy in the school and with their peers.
We celebrated these students during a recognition assembly, where they were honored in front of their classmates.
Congratulations to these students!
