The Junior Parent Meeting will be held this coming Monday, November 17 at 7:00 PM in the high school auditorium.

During the meeting, we’ll discuss key topics that are essential as students prepare for their senior year, including college selection, the admissions process, scholarships, and financial aid. Senior year is an important and busy time, and our goal is to provide families with the information and support they need as their student plans for the future.

Staff, students, and community members gathered to honor and celebrate our veterans during a special Veterans Day assembly. The program began with the presentation of colors, followed by the Pledge of Allegiance and a moving performance by the Sheldon High School band, featuring Clint Badberg’s tribute to the branches of the military. Throughout the ceremony, local veterans were recognized and sincerely thanked for their service, dedication, and sacrifice in protecting our freedoms.

Thank you to Braeden Mouw and Sophie Meyer for leading the program, and to our guest speaker, Dr. Ryan Becker, who shared an inspiring message about the importance of service, community, and remembering those who have protected our freedoms. We are also deeply grateful to all the veterans who attended and allowed us the opportunity to express our appreciation in person.

We extend our heartfelt thanks to all veterans for their dedication and courage, and to everyone who helped make this meaningful event possible. Your service and sacrifice will never be forgotten.
