Fun fact – did you know that Sylvia Miklos has worked for our school for 50 years? That’s just one of the reasons why she is so deserving of the “Support Staff of the Quarter” award. Thank you Sylvia for everything you do for our school!

📢 Attention, Wolverine Fans and Guests!

As a general expectation at all Selby Area Schools events, we ask that children remain in the stands with their parents or guardians rather than running around the school or outside the building.

For everyone's safety, please limit children going in and out of the building and help prevent snow, mud, and dirt from being tracked inside.

Our custodial staff works extremely hard to keep our facilities clean and safe, and we appreciate your help in respecting their efforts.

Thank you for helping us maintain a safe, clean, and enjoyable environment for everyone.

GO WOLVERINES!

This year, we are doing something new at Selby Area School. Students are going to nominate a “Teacher of the Quarter.” The winner of this award for the first quarter was… Mrs. Opheim! One student stated that Mrs. Opheim was deserving of this award because “she puts in a lot of extra hours to make sure her students have the best experience.” Thanks for everything you do, Mrs. Opheim!

Photography Students Capture Life on the Bohle Farm

Selby Area School’s photography class took its annual trip to Brandice and Al Bohle’s farm, where students completed an assignment focused on photographing animals in their natural surroundings. The visit gave students a chance to get closer to the animals, explore new subjects, and practice using light, composition, and different camera angles outside the classroom.

The Bohles’ farm is home to a variety of animals, including Thoroughbreds ranging from retired racehorses to current racers and young racing prospects, Quarter and Paint horse mares with foals, and Percheron draft horses. Their cattle include Longhorns, Brahman and Brahman crosses, Watusi, and Black and Red Angus. Among the farm’s memorable residents is Poncho, a Watusi–Longhorn cross known for his parade appearances. Guinea fowl, cats, and their dog, Faize, add even more opportunities for students to capture farm life.

Another special resident is Jazzy Jasper, a colt named in honor of the late Jasper Iron Cloud. His mother, Mindy, previously belonged to Jasper, giving the colt’s name a meaningful connection to the family’s history.

Photographing live animals encourages students to be patient, observant, and ready to capture a moment as it unfolds. This assignment offers another avenue for creative expression while helping students build their photography skills through hands-on experience.

Thank you to Brandice and Al Bohle for welcoming our class and sharing their farm with our students!
