Isabella Bradburn received two major honors this past week. First, Isabella was honored as one of 50 Regional Academic All-Star Honorees by the Indiana Association of School Principals. Academic All-Star distinction recognizes seniors who excel in the classroom first and foremost, but who also are actively involved in their schools and communities, and take on leadership roles in those activities.

Additionally, Isabella was named as an honorable mention for the Governor's STEM team in the area of Science. This award recognizes outstanding high school students who have demonstrated talent and accomplishments in the areas of science, technology, engineering, and math.

Congratulations Isabella! We are proud of all you continue to do with your time here at SHS!

This is Mrs. Knopp’s 10th year of teaching special education at SHS and 15th year in education overall. She is a proud SHS grad and currently resides in Shelbyville with her husband and two kids. In their free time, her family enjoys traveling to new places, hiking and watching tv series together. One of the things Mrs. Knopp loves about Shelbyville High School is that the people of the building will unite and support each other during good times and rough times. This includes coming together for different causes throughout the year..

Fellow staff members, parents, and students stated the following about Mrs. Knopp:

• Mrs. Knopp is someone you can always count on to help in any situation. She is willing to help out her fellow staff members or students.

• Darah’s students are like ducklings that follow their leader. She does a great job of making them feel comfortable and showing them their gifts.

April 24th - Historical Figure

Do you love to write? I mean, do you really love to write -- poetry, short stories, and other creative writing? If so, consider the SCS Summer Young Writers Camp for students grades 7-12. The writing camp is facilitated by Mr. Anspaugh, SMS library media specialist, and Mrs. McIntire, SMS language arts teacher, and will be June 12-23 from 9 AM to 12 PM. This is the 14th year for the writing camp, and this year's theme has a sci-fi, time machine twist to it -- Back to the Writing Camp 2 (Part 1 was back in 2015!). The camp meets Monday through Friday for two weeks culminating with the Writers' Celebration on the last Friday. The camp is $30, which includes all materials, snacks, T-shirt, and a field trip to the canal and Indianapolis Historical Society. Campers will write creative writing like poetry, fiction, and non-fiction pieces (no essays!), and have lots of fun doing it. Camp is limited to the first twenty-five students to register. If you are interested, but you are unable to attend both weeks or some days, we will send out what we do for the days you are gone. Please send any questions you may have to Mr. Anspaugh (jtanspaugh@shelbycs.org), and he will send you a registration form.
