This week at Sheldon Community Schools! Reminder that there will be NO SCHOOL on Monday. This week's lunch menu was created by one of our High School Mass Media students, Heather Honkomp. Students learned more about creating graphic images this week and one project was to create a new lunch menu image to post weekly. Great job Heather! #LeadOn #Orabs #sheldonorabs #thisweekatsheldon #weeklyupdate

Sheldon High School students have had the opportunity to learn more about graphic design and social media sharing in their Mass Media class this week. Through this class, our students are able to learn the basics in social media marketing, professionalism, graphic design, reporting, photography, videography, and more. This week students learned more about the different graphic design tools we use and took part in a zoom training with the company that we run our website through. Be on the lookout for some of our student work as they learn to create, share, and promote Sheldon Community Schools in a positive and professional way. #LeadOn #orabs #sheldonorabs #massmedia

First grade students received their whisper phones this week and they were so excited! Whisper phones can improve phonemic awareness, increase comprehension of what is being read, help students read at an appropriate voice volume, build confident readers, and make reading fun! #LeadOn #orabs #sheldonorabs #reading #1stgrade

Kindergartners at East Elementary are enjoying being creative during free play. #LeadOn #orabs #sheldonorabs #learning #kindergarten

Breakfast is one of the most important meals of the day, especially for our students. If your student doesn't have time to each breakfast at home, they can eat breakfast at school. Eating breakfast can benefit students in many ways throughout the school day. They are able to concentrate better, are more alert, and can have better test scores. Thank you to our wonderful kitchen staff that serves breakfast daily from 7:45-8:20 am at each of our buildings for our students. #LeadOn #orabs #sheldonorabs #breakfast #schoolbreakfast
