Our new schedule this year makes attendance crucial for students' academic success, and it's extremely important they attend bell to bell. We are seeing a number of students in the building, but not attending their whole classes. We want to remind you that we have multiple codes for attendance:

• Arriving to class marked VL (very late)

• Leaving early without permission, or asking to leave early for another reason

• Missing class entirely

As you look at your student’s attendance in ParentView please ask your student about any attendance codes that may be coming up. If you need help signing up for ParentVue please do not hesitate to call Sheldon High School and we can help set that up for you.

Lane County health officials say a recent rise in cases of pertussis, commonly known as whooping cough, indicate the respiratory tract infection is spreading in our community. We are asking our families to be vigilant to prevent further spread of the infection in our school and larger community. Families are encouraged to stay up-to-date with their pertussis vaccinations and keep children home from school if they show symptoms of pertussis.

An FAQ with more information is available on the 4J website both in English and in Spanish. If you have further questions, please call your medical provider or Lane County Public Health, 541-682-4041.

The results are in and we are happy to report that voters in Eugene School District 4J have overwhelmingly passed Measure 20-357, renewing the local option levy that helps fund the day-to-day operations of our schools. This support makes a tremendous difference for every 4J school and student.

A friendly reminder that we are offering After School Tutoring for all Sheldon students that need some extra help or extra time to get some work done. We meet every Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday after school from 3:45-4:45 in the Sheldon Library. The tutors include teachers from most subject areas and National Honor Society students. Sack lunches and snacks are provided to all that attend. We will be offering this program until Tuesday, June 11th. If you know a student that could benefit from this service, please send them our way.

Expectations: You will be expected to Check-In to the attendance portal found on the Sheldon Website when you arrive and complete the Google Form. While you are at the After School Tutoring Program you are expected to be working on a class or classes that you are struggling in. Teachers and tutors are there to help answer any questions and give instruction when needed. Before you leave you must Check-Out by completing the same Google Form you Checked in with.

Incentives: -You will be provided a sack lunch as well as snacks. We will also offer a drawing at the end of each section for those that completed their Google Check-in/Check-out Form.

-Students who attend all three sessions for each week will also be rewarded with a prize (ex. Free pizza from Papa’s, Dutch Bros gift card, etc.)

Given the prevalence of bike theft in our community, we encourage you to follow these tips to reduce the risk of bike theft:

• Always lock your bike, even if you're just leaving it for a minute.
• Lock to something secure, not something like a chain link fence that is easy to cut through.
• Do not leave your bike locked at school overnight.
• Lock with a U-lock, not a cable lock.
• Lock the bike through one of the triangles of the frame, not through the wheel, as that can easily be removed.

----

Dada la prevalencia del robo de bicicletas en nuestra comunidad, le animamos a seguir estos consejos para reducir el riesgo de robo de bicicletas:

• Cierre siempre la bicicleta con llave, aunque sólo la deje un momento.
• Átala a un lugar seguro, no a una valla metálica que pueda cortarse fácilmente.
• No dejes la bici encerrada en el colegio durante la noche.
• Asegúrala con un candado en U, no con un candado de cable.
• Bloquea la bicicleta a través de uno de los triángulos del cuadro, no a través de la rueda, ya que se puede quitar fácilmente.

Get your FREE student LTD transit pass before the end of the school year!

All students in 4J schools can get a student pass to ride Lane Transit District (LTD) buses for free. Student transit passes can be used to travel anywhere within the LTD service area. Student passes can be used at any time—after school, on weekends and during school breaks, as well as to get to and from school each day.

To get a free LTD student transit pass, available as a tap card or Umo smartphone app, middle and high school students can request their own passes from the front office.
