Our students in the Gifted program made their own mini golf course challenge. They calculated angles and made it possible to get a hole- in- one with simple math! Well, it may be simple for them, but it was a challenge for some of the staff. Mrs. Boldt and Mrs. Consolino were impressed and thankful to be invited to give it a try.
We have a new attendance program. Each week the class with the highest percentage of students present for the week will recieve the traveling "Best Weekly Attendance" trophy. This week, our second grade class was the winner of 98% attendance for the week. Congratulations 2nd grade! They will be rewareded not only with the trophy for a week, but also a surprise game during breakfast one morning next week.
The kindergarteners made applesauce today! They loved helping mix and mash the apples and, of course, taste-testing the finished product
Tomorrow, Selmaville School will be celebrating World Kindness Day!
We’ll be collecting monetary donations for Sleep in Heavenly Peace, a local nonprofit organization that builds beds for children in need.

We’re supporting Shop with a Cop — a wonderful program that gives children in our school the chance to shop with SRO Barry for gifts, clothing, and essentials. It’s a day filled with smiles, laughter, and memories that last far beyond Christmas.
If you’d like to help, donations can be made out to Selmaville School with a note that it’s for Shop with a Cop. A donation box will also be set up at the gate during all home basketball games prior to Christmas this year.
Your kindness will help bring joy to a child’s heart and show what being a Rocket truly means.

Selmaville students recently had the opportunity to explore science in an exciting, hands-on way thanks to the Centralia Cultural Society’s Arts in Education program. Through their support, the Traveling Science Center made a stop at our school, bringing interactive exhibits focused on Illinois science, wildlife, and environmental awareness.
Students explored a variety of displays highlighting topics such as parasites, wildlife habitats, and the impact of human activity on the environment, including our carbon footprint. The exhibits encouraged curiosity and critical thinking while giving students the chance to engage directly with scientific concepts in a fun and memorable way.
Although the Traveling Science Center program was designed for students in grades 4–8, the organizers were kind enough to open the experience to our kindergarten through third grade classes as well. Our younger students were thrilled to have a chance to step aboard the science bus and experience the wonders of hands-on learning.
Selmaville School extends a heartfelt thank you to the Centralia Cultural Society and their Arts in Education program for making this educational opportunity possible. It was an unforgettable day of discovery that helped inspire a love of science across all grade levels.
