Sheldon East Elementary kindergarteners had a fun-filled celebration during Dr. Seuss Week!
Students tried green eggs just like in Green Eggs and Ham, created their own Cat in the Hat hats, and graphed their favorite Dr. Seuss books. It was a wonderful week of reading, creativity, and hands-on learning!

ISASP testing starts this week at Sheldon Middle School. The Iowa Statewide Assessment of Student Progress (ISASP) is the annual spring accountability test for Iowa students.
Getting a good night’s sleep, eating a healthy breakfast, and arriving at school on time can help students feel focused, confident, and ready to do their best. We encourage all students to stay positive, try their hardest, and show what they have learned. You’ve got this - go Orabs!

Sheldon Middle School History Day
Students spent time researching important historical figures, significant events, and key milestones. They then shared their learning through creative presentations with family members, parents, and friends.
This event gave students the opportunity to showcase their hard work, strengthen their presentation skills, and bring history to life. We are proud of their dedication and enthusiasm!
