December 2025
It’s hard to believe we are in the final weeks of our first semester! We've had a strong and positive start to the school year—full of growth, learning, and a wonderful sense of community. Our students have made great academic progress, and even more inspiring, they’ve shown tremendous generosity. Through our Trick or Treat so Others Can Eat event, we collected enough food to provide Thanksgiving baskets for 50 families. In addition, our Student Council food drive gathered donations to support our local food pantry. We are truly proud of our students and grateful for the continued support from our families. December will be a busy and exciting month at school! Be sure to check out the details of our Christmas programs, and join us for our Christmas Countdown with fun spirit days. See below for all the activities happening throughout the month. As always, please reach out by email at bgarrison@ses.k12.in.us or phone at 755-544-3331 if you have any questions or concerns

With winter weather here, it is a good time to review Shelby Eastern School's policy for school closures due to inclement weather. All students, parents, and teachers will be notified of school closure before 6:00 a.m. on the day of the closure. When we make the decision to close or delay we will communicate with local TV and Radio Stations, send an SMS text message to all students and staff, post to our website, and social media feeds.
IF we opt for eLearning on a closure day, please follow the guidelines outlined here.
District eLearning Guidelines.
Assignments: All staff will post assignments by 10:00 a.m. of the eLearning day.
Communication: Teachers will communicate with students through email and/or Rooms to establish a 2-hour office window for that day.
Due Dates: Posted assignments will have an extended due date window of three days, starting from the day they are assigned. Adjustments can be made for consecutive or extended eLearning days.
Attendance: Assignment completion will continue to be the basis for attendance on eLearning days.
