Congratulations to our Sheldon High School students who participated in winter sports and were selected for the 2026 Iowa All-Conference Academic Team! This recognition highlights your outstanding dedication to both athletics and academics. We are proud of your hard work in the classroom and your commitment on the court. Way to represent Sheldon!
Sheldon Middle School students recently participated in the Playmaker’s Camp at MOC-Floyd Valley, gaining valuable skills and experience while having a great time!
The Sheldon High School girls basketball team started the morning off in the best way by welcoming East Elementary students with smiles and high fives as they arrived at school!
It was a fun way to spread some positivity and school spirit, and the younger students loved the encouragement from our athletes. Thank you to the girls team for being great role models and helping make the start of the day extra special! Go Orabs!
