4th Grade Panel Discussion
Our fourth graders met with community stakeholders to share their ideas of how to enhance the Shepherdsville community. The panel listened and asked questions about the students' proposals of creating a skate park, a water park, a homeless shelter, and a playground.
Something Exciting from the PTA
PTA wants to thank everyone for their support through fall festival, snack cart, restaurant nights, and book fair! We have been able to have a successful year so far and have added two fall after school dances! Those will be split up K-2 and 3-5 on November 18th and November 20th. Both dances will be FREE entry for all students! More information to come but as always a HUGE thank you to our Freedom families!
