Mr. Gary Webb, a longtime volunteer from Indiana Farm Bureau Insurance, came to visit the 8th graders that he has known since they were in 3rd grade. Mr. Webb wrote them a song to carry them into their 8th grade graduation later this year. He performed it for them during their lunch last week. We are grateful for Mr. Webb and his dedication to SENSE!

Families of SENSE attended a great celebration the night of Wednesday December 12th for the Winter Sports Banquet.
The banquet honored the players in volleyball, basketball, cross country and cheerleading. The SENSE Girls’ Volleyball team were champions this year in the City’s Elementary Charter School Division.





The SENSE Charter Cub Scouts, of Pack 18, created many wonderful thank you cards with holiday themes that could be sent to some of our community partners. This is in thanks for their being so generous to our school over all the many years.



Today SENSE Charter School held an unannounced active shooter drill. All classrooms did an amazing job following school procedures to ensure safety.

Hello. No doubt you have your finest laid out for this event, but this is just a reminder that the SENSE fundraiser is this Wednesday (Tomorrow) at the Red Lion Grog House. The offer is good throughout the day, until close.
Please be certain to tell your server you are here for the event. This guarantees that 50 percent will go to SENSE. Red Lion is family friendly. And certainly community-based.
Please get the word out! Good food for a good cause. Thank you -Kate
