The Sheldon High School students have had some great real world experience over the last few weeks by participating in "Mock Interviews" with local businesses in our Financial Literacy class.
Financial Literacy is a graduation requirement for all Sheldon High School students. During this course students learn money management and career readiness skills. Topics include taxes, checking, saving, investing, paying for college, types of credit, managing credit, insurance, budgeting, and careers.
Each student in the course is required to do two job shadows and a mock interview. The mock interview gives each student an authentic learning experience of presenting themself to a potential employer as the best candidate for their business.
Community members are invited in to assist with mock interviews. Their constructive criticism helps our students be successful in future interviews.
This semester we want to send a thankyou to Rosenboom, NCC, Citizens State Bank, and Sheldon Economic Development for stepping in as our interviewers for our students.

Monday night, the 7th-12 grade band and choir students performed their Winter Concert in the High School Auditorium. The holiday themed music was a great way to get into the holiday spirit for the last week of school before Christmas break.
Thank you to our students and instructors for your hard work to get ready for this performance.

Daily reading groups are a big focus at East Elementary.
Students participate in whole group learning and assignments, but each day teachers will pull different reading groups to work with their students in a small group setting.
Small-group instruction provides opportunities for differentiated learning. With the smaller number of students, students have more chances to answer questions and read aloud. Teachers are also able to monitor the students better and can provide better and ore individualized support.

Shout-Out to the Boys' Basketball Team for helping organize and pack food for the Back Pack Program for our Elementary and Middle School students.
After school on Wednesday the team spent time helping staff get the bags ready for the holiday break.
We are thankful for their help, as well as our local donors and the Food Bank of Iowa that help make this program possible for some of our families in our district.
