Wolverine fans- Homecoming parade will start at 1:00 pm on Friday September 19th in Selby. Floats can start lining up at 12:45 pm near the bus shed north of the Selby Area School building. Come support our school, students, and communities during this parade.
Selby Area's personal finance class had Roger Hoffmann from Kohlman, Bierschbach, and Anderson talk to the class about taxes. Students enjoyed learning important lifelong skills in class!
Today, the first-year students of Selby Area School and the last-year students of Selby Area School got to meet up and go out for recess together. This is always a fun event for the seniors, as they get to relive their younger school days. For the younger kids, it is an exciting opportunity to meet the older kids.
The event started off in the kindergarten classroom, where the seniors introduced themselves and shared their plans for next year. Once outside, some kids played soccer, some played kickball, and some played on the playground. After recess, all of the students enjoyed some popcorn and visited with each other.
This event has become a sort of tradition that started 2 years ago, and it’s proving to be a favorite for both the seniors and the kindergarteners. It was a perfect way to kick off the seniors’ final homecoming week!
