The Class of 2027 learned some skills that can truly save a life! Students learned CPR and choking response techniques, gaining valuable knowledge and hands-on experience along the way. These are skills they can carry with them for a lifetime. Thank you Boston Mountain Rural Health for helping our students be prepared just in case.

We hope you had a great Labor Day weekend!

Here is your menu for week 5. Can you believe it's September already?!??

We always recognize our attendance winners at each assembly. We have had great attendance by all grade levels so far this year! However, our 11th grade class at high school won in the month of August with over 98% average daily attendance! At elementary, we did not have a single winning grade level. Instead, we had five grades that tied with 100% daily attendance !! Kindergarten, 1st, 3rd, 4th, and 5th grades had 100% average daily attendance. 2nd grade still had over 98% and 6th grade had 99%. All of these grade levels will receive a special reward for their faithfulness to be at school. Thank you for getting up each and every day and coming to school with us!

Our elementary dance-off winners for the Spirit Bells were 6th grade, Aubree and Waylon, and first grade, Delilah and Jack! We LOVE the dance-off competitions. Students really show off their DEVIL energy and pride!!

Congratulations to our August Teachers of the Month! Mrs. Jess Mannon is the elementary Teacher of the Month, and Mr. Connor Balentine is the high school Teacher of the Month.

I wanted to send out a huge thank you to all of the current and former students that I coached that came to the booster club tournament on Saturday. It makes me realize that what we do as educators is worth so much more that what we get paid. I also wanted to thank Heath Jones who set all of this up and reached out to those former players. It was great to see all of you and I hope that this becomes an annual event to help support Shirley Athletics. Thanks too for the volunteers and people that sponsored holes. Go Blue Devils!!!!!!!

SHS has several students to recognize this week for their positive DEVILS behaviors! Damien Gann was recognized by Mrs. Hill for his volunteerism. Bryden Bradford was recognized by Mr. Balentine for his outstanding effort in his presentation. Briar Davis was recognized by Mr. Lee for being a good role model in the classroom.
