SAFE! Presentation

Chipotle Spirit Night

RED RIBBON WEEK and STEP OUT

OCTOBER 30 - NOVEMBER 3

Shepton's Red Ribbon Week will be October 30 - November 3,

to highlight an awareness of drug and alcohol abuse.

The dress up days for the week are:

Monday - Disney Day “Life is MAGICAL without Drugs!”

Tuesday - Hawaiian Day “Lei OFF Drugs!”

Wednesday - Neon Day “Your Future is Bright without Drugs!”

Thursday - Sports Day - “Team Up Against Drugs!”

Friday - Superhero Day “Join the Allegiance Against Drugs!”

PTSA will present an assembly with an amazing speaker from "Just Say Yes" to culminate Red Ribbon Week on November 3 at 9:40 a.m. and 10:45 a.m. This assembly is made possible by the generosity of the Shepton PTSA. We are confident that this assembly on the final day of Red Ribbon Week will help students see the connections between our anti-drug messages and real life.

As an exciting conclusion to Red Ribbon Week – we will have our Fall Stallion Step Out on November 3rd. Students and teachers will have a 55 minute lunch with A/B lunches combined for lunch 1 and C/D lunches combined for lunch 2. We want you to “step outside” and enjoy Chick-fil-A, Dillas Quesadillas, Pizza Hut Pizza, Panda Express, Drinks, Chips, Steel City Pops and Dippin’ Dots! DJ Michael Blake from KISS FM will be here to play music as you eat food and spend time with all of your friends! All vendors will be taking cash this year and there is no need to pre-buy tickets! The Step Out Menu with prices is posted around the school and on twitter!

College Planning Program

A Must-See Program for all Shepton students and parents. Come discover how parents and students can not only survive, but succeed in planning for college and in gaining acceptance at the college of one's choice by attending an enlightening program on Monday, November 6th, at 6:30 P.M. in the Shepton Ensemble room, sponsored by the PTSA. Our dynamic speaker, Marilyn Kaufman, M..Ed, will be returning to Shepton for the 8th year in a row, to share practical advice and strategies for gaining college admission.. Mrs. Kaufman, an independent college counselor and consultant, is also one of twenty-five national college counselors who serves on The Princeton Review National College Counselor Advisory Board.

Be A Shepton Volunteer

As our children get older in school, it seems that the school doesn’t need as much help as they used to. Actually they still need us, just in differing ways. Do you have an hour once a month, once every 3 or 4 months, once a year? We have volunteer opportunities that fit all of these needs and more. Sign up to help in a variety of ways by checking your preferences on our PTSA Toolkit or sign up to be “Ready to Help” when the opportunity arises. You may also contact volunteers@sheptonptsa.org with any questions.
