Selmaville students were treated to an exciting and motivational assembly as the GO BIG BMX Air Show visited the school gym. The talented BMX riders wowed the crowd with impressive bike tricks and demonstrations while sharing powerful life lessons about perseverance, setting goals, and believing in yourself.
Throughout the presentation, the riders encouraged students to work hard, overcome challenges, and never give up when working toward their goals. Their message comes at a perfect time as Selmaville students prepare for IAR state testing, which will take place March 17–19.
The assembly served as a great reminder that success—whether performing BMX tricks or completing a test—comes from preparation, focus, and determination.
Families can support students during testing by helping them get a good night’s rest, eating a healthy breakfast, and making sure they arrive at school ready to learn each day of testing.
We appreciate the GO BIG BMX team for providing an engaging and inspiring experience that encouraged our students to believe in themselves and give their very best effort.

TODAY, March 13th, we will be recognizing our 8th grade volleyball players during the evening’s game. In addition, the game will be a BLUE OUT Volleyball Game in support of our music teacher, Mr. Mays, who is currently battling colon cancer.
There will be a 50/50 drawing, a bake sale, a Hula Hoop Contest, and a few other games to help raise money to support Mr. Mays and his family with treatment expenses. We encourage everyone to come out, wear BLUE, and help us pack the gym as we honor our 8th grade athletes and rally around one of our own. 💙
Please consider sharing this post so we can spread the word and show Mr. Mays just how strong and supportive our community truly is.

Dear Parents and Guardians,
We are writing to inform you of an important update to our district’s student beverage policy.
Due to growing concerns related to student health, safety, and classroom behavior, students will no longer be permitted to bring energy drinks of any kind to school. This policy will apply during the school day, at extracurricular activities, and at all school-sponsored events and functions, whether held on or off campus.
Energy drinks often contain high levels of caffeine and other stimulants that can negatively impact students’ focus, behavior, and overall well-being. We have seen an increase in issues related to their consumption, and this change is being made in the best interest of our students’ health and learning environment.
Students may continue to bring appropriate beverages such as water, milk, or other non-energy drinks to school.
We ask for your support in reinforcing this expectation with your child. Any energy drinks brought to school will be confiscated, will not be returned, and will be thrown away.
Thank you for your cooperation and continued partnership as we work together to provide a safe and positive environment for all students. If you have questions regarding this policy, please contact your school office.
Sincerely,
Mrs. Boldt
Selmaville CCSD 10 Superintendent
