On November 10, SHS graduate Tylr Gottfriedt took the time to speak with the seventh grade about what being a U.S. Marine is all about, including why he joined the Marines, basic training, life as a military police officer, and lessons he learned while serving our country. Although he met many people from various backgrounds, he noted that being away from his family was the hardest part. The seventh graders asked great questions and wanted to know more about Tylr’s experiences. We are very thankful for the time Tylr shared with us.

Parents may sign students out with the classroom teacher after the performance.

Our Elementary MUSIC Teacher, Patti Tynan, has taught & incorporated the Shelbyville Schools "Fight Song" to ALL Kindergarten students. This is part of their daily routine / EXIT song.
