Due to the potential of severe weather, the Ministerial Association has made the decision to cancel Baccalaureate, scheduled for this evening.

Sheldon High School students attended the Build My Future event hosted by the Iowa Lakes Corridor at the Clay County Event Center.

Students had the opportunity to explore a wide variety of career paths through interactive, hands-on experiences. Career fields included automotive, law enforcement, emergency services, military, manufacturing, construction, culinary arts, hospitality, healthcare, information technology, trucking and logistics, energy, and many more.

This event gave students valuable insight into future career opportunities while allowing them to connect with industry professionals and learn about the skills and training needed in today’s workforce.

Join us as we celebrate the Sheldon High School Class of 2026 at the Baccalaureate Ceremony honoring this special milestone for our seniors.
