📢 Shelby Middle School Summer Closure Notice 📢
Shelby Middle School will be closed to all traffic for the summer starting June 11 due to construction.
We look forward to welcoming everyone back once the updates are complete!
Thank you for your understanding and support.


The Village of Shelby and Shelby Public Schools invite YOU to a public planning session to contribute your input toward the Safe Routes to School plan development. The overall goal is to improve the ability for community members to safely walk, bike, or travel to everyday destinations like schools, parks, and stores. We are nearing the final steps in the application process to fund new sidewalks and safer, more visible crosswalks. Your input can help shape a safer, more walkable community. Please join us Tuesday, June 3rd at 6:30 pm. Help us spread the word!
-------------------------------------
Se le invita al público participar en una sesión para aportar su opinión sobre el plan de desarrollo para rutas más seguras peatonales (Safe Routes to School). El objetivo final es mejorar la accesibilidad y seguridad para transitar en forma segura hacia lo largo de una calle, navegar sin riesgos una intersección, y llegar del punto A al punto B, y otros lugares cotidianos como escuelas, parques, y tiendas. Nos estamos acercando a la fase final del proceso de solicitud para financiar nuevas aceras y cruces más seguros y visibles. Su opinión puede ayudar a construir una comunidad más segura y peatonal. Favor de acompañarnos el martes, 3 de junio a las 6:30 pm. Organizado por el Village de Shelby y las escuelas públicas de Shelby. Favor de compartir.
