Kindergarten Registration for the 2025-2026 school year will begin next week. Please call the school to set up an appointment.
SHELTON SPECIAL ELECTION
Shelton is holding a special election on Tuesday, February 25th. School will be in session. Since Mohegan School is a voting site, community members will be coming in to vote in the gymnasium. Voters will enter and leave the building through the back door near the gymnasium; no voters will be allowed in the front door. Once they are done voting, they will exit the same way they entered. Voters are not allowed to enter any other parts of the school. There will be no gym classes in the gymnasium that day. Extra security will be in the gymnasium to ensure voters stay in the designated areas. I am working with the Shelton Public Schools Security Supervisor to ensure a safe environment for all our staff and students. As always, your child’s safety is our top priority.
PBIS SCHOOL WIDE REWARD
Any student with 1 or fewer office referrals in the month gets to participate in the monthly school wide PBIS reward. February’s school wide reward is: Flashlight Reading Day
