I would like to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas. May your holiday be filled with many smiles, much love and fond moments with the ones you hold dear while making some memories to treasure forever. May you never stop believing in the magic of the season and carry it in your heart, not just today but everyday while spreading love and kindness all throughout the year

Congrats to all the fourth-grade students and band members on their performances at this year's Christmas program. Audience members agreed it was a job well done!

Sheckler was filled with smiles and laughter Dec. 22 as students enjoyed classroom parties and Santa made his way through the halls to pay a visit to each classroom. Santa passed out a gift to the students of a Rougie hat while he spent some time visiting with the students and staff. A great big thank you to Santa for taking time out of his busy schedule to pay a visit to Sheckler and for all the joy he brings to the students and staff. Thank you also to all of Santa's Home and School helpers for helping to make this such a special day and for all your dedication throughout the year as well
