Survey

We appreciate you taking a few minutes to share your feedback about South Sioux City Community Schools.

We are a community of learners. We’re asking if you will help us learn more about the outcome of the May 2025 bond election. We want to hear from our community to help us better understand the different things that contributed to the result. We invite you to take a brief survey to share your thoughts about the district and our recent election. 

We will use the results of the survey and your feedback to determine how to move forward with addressing the facility needs in our schools. Listening to our community members is a high priority and we hope you will participate in this important effort.

Thank you for your time.

Board of Education Calls for Special Election on May 13th

The South Sioux City Board of Education has approved a resolution for a special mail-in election, giving our community the opportunity to vote on a proposed $127 million bond to support critical school facility improvements.

This plan was built by the community, for the community. Over the past year, we have gathered input through:

✅ Five Community Workshops
✅ Building Tours
✅ Two Community Surveys

This bond proposal is designed to:

  • Address aging infrastructure and district-wide facility needs

  • Reduce overcrowding in our schools

  • Enhance safety and security at each campus

  • Create more effective and modern learning environments for all students

Ballots will be mailed to all registered voters residing in the district the week of April 21, 2025. Completed ballots must be returned to the Dakota County Courthouse by 5:00 PM on May 13, 2025, to be counted.

This election presents an important opportunity for our residents to help shape the future of education in South Sioux City. We are committed to providing clear, neutral, and accurate information about the proposal. Further details will be shared regularly with both staff and the community.
