Sheldon High School first semester final exams will take place next week. These exams are an important opportunity for students to demonstrate their learning and finish the semester strong.

During this time, it is essential that students arrive at school on time, are well rested, and come prepared and focused each day. Consistent attendance is especially important, as final exams follow a specific schedule and being present helps ensure a smooth and successful testing process for all students.

We appreciate families’ support in encouraging students to get plenty of rest, eat a healthy breakfast, and be ready to do their best. Thank you for helping us create a positive and productive testing environment as we wrap up the first semester.

Join us tonight. Go Orabs!
