• Sheldon’s Women in STEM Club is back! Come for snacks, a fun activity, and a chance to meet awesome people who love science, tech, engineering, and math. Everyone’s welcome, so grab a friend and stop by tomorrow in room B-5 during Lunch.
• Starting next week, the office will no longer provide loaner laptops unless you are taking a test or quiz in class, or your original laptop is currently being repaired. This change is necessary because we have a limited number of loaner laptops. When students who are waiting for repairs need a replacement, we must have loaners available for them. Please make sure to bring your charged laptop everyday to school.
• For community service experience, come to Interact Club in classroom B-14 at lunch on Thursday January 8!
• Come to New York Times Gaming Club in Ms. Suzie's class, C-10, Wednesday during lunch for Wordle and connections.  We will be collaborating on Wordle unlimited and connections unlimited. Come for fun games and great community. We will have snacks.
• We want to share information regarding updated districtwide expectations for Personal Electronic Devices, which take effect now that it's 2026.  These expectations align with statewide guidance issued through our Governor’s Executive Order and reflect a shared commitment to focused learning environments, student safety, and equitable practices.  Throughout the entire Instructional day, personal electronic devices are expected to be off and away — powered off and not visible or accessible.   This expectation applies for the entire school day, from first bell to last bell, including passing times and meal periods.  Students may still communicate with their families through school systems (front office phone for instance) when needed.  At Sheldon we will ask students to PARK their phones when in class in the designated area.  During passing periods, breaks and meal times, students need to PACK their phones in backpacks prior to leaving class. We are all still learning and adjusting to these new expectations, and we thank you for your help as we implement these changes thoughtfully and consistently.  As always remember the ROSE - be Respectful of Others, your Self and our Environment.
• Shh...eldon Reading Club at lunch in the library starts this Thursday! Staff and students, come read new library books, your books, cookbooks... read whatever you want! Go to the library on Thursday, pick a comfy spot, read, eat snacks, relax, and enjoy.
• If you are interested in being a part of the Sheldon Track & Field team this spring the team is starting winter workouts for January & February.  The team meets in the weight room on Monday, Tuesdays & Thursdays at 3:45 pm, after school.  It is a great way to get in shape early & meet teammates.  You are encouraged to stop in and meet the coaches and ask any questions you may have about the program.  
• Hey Juniors and Seniors! Are you thinking about your future career and maybe Tig welding, Suture removal and bandaging, Fun with drones, or maybe "Lights, Camera. Action!" is calling to you? Lane Community College is hosting their Hands on Career Day with fun experiences in these fields and more, on the morning of February 20th. If you are interested in attending, there are limited seats available, so come and sign up with a counselor today!
