Perspective Insurance is honoring and remembering local deployed soldiers during the holiday season, and you’re invited to join in the effort. There are several meaningful ways to get involved: purchase a commemorative shirt, donate items for care packages, or participate in a coloring activity that will be sent to local soldiers to brighten their holiday.
Mark your calendars for Friday, January 23, and wear your red shirts to the home basketball games. During both games, fans can take part in a special halftime Shooting Contest featuring cash prizes.
🔻🔻SHIRT ORDERS ARE DUE 🔻🔻
Monday, December 15 at noon at the high school, so be sure to get yours in on time. Together, let’s show our gratitude and support for local soldiers this Christmas season.

Senator Chuck Grassley visited Sheldon High School as part of his 99-county tour. The President pro tempore of the United States Senate answered student questions on topics ranging from life lessons to the recent government shutdown and practicing constructive politics. He also met with members of the National Honor Society, the Student Leadership Team, and the Orab Leadership Class.
A fun moment from the visit included recreating a photo with Mr. Joseph Kunert, who interned in Senator Grassley’s office in 2021. The two recreated a photo from that time.
