Congratulations to Brynn Hohenbrink on winning her age category of the Ohio Department of Education and Workforce Eclipse Video Contest!

Our law enforcement officers will have these in their vehicles today to make sure everyone can safely view the eclipse. Thanks Brynn! 💜🌒💛
This week we celebrated Wellness Week. Each day we focused on a way to improve our mental and physical health. Wednesday's Eat Well; Be Well theme seemed to be the biggest hit as everyone got to enjoy a yogurt parfait bar for breakfast. Thank you to our cafeteria staff for all their help with breakfast on Wednesday!💜🍓🫐💛
Our awesome science teachers are getting Dragon Nation excited for Monday! 💜🌒💛
Congratulations to Chase Maag, Katelyn Haselman, and Noah Leopold that were selected to participate at the National Civics Bee- Regional Contest last night at OSU Lima. They competed against 20 area candidates. The first two rounds were a live test over civics concepts in which Noah and Katelyn were finalists. They, with four other students, presented their essays and answered questions from judges in front of a live audience. Chase Maag was also interviewed by Hometown Stations before the contest. https://www.hometownstations.com/news/local-middle-schoolers-participate-in-national-civics-bee/article_f4c4e9ca-f231-11ee-8c81-fb71ddd4c74c.html

Dear parents and students:
As of 9:00 p.m. this evening, parts of the following roads in our school district have been reported as underwater to various degrees:
Road I-9
I-14 east and west of 13-I
County Road 15
Road H-13 east and west of Road 14
South Walnut Street south of the river
Second Street west of St. Rt. 65
Maple Street south of 224
Attention families who live near these areas where roads are underwater:
• District bus drivers will do their best to pick-up students on their route for school
tomorrow morning. Please note that drivers will proceed with an abundance of caution, so please have a back-up plan in place to transport your child(ren) to school in the event that the bus driver cannot make it to your house.
Attention student drivers:
• Do NOT attempt to drive through any roads that are submerged in water, no matter
how deep you believe the water to be. Give yourself plenty of time to take an
alternative route to school if needed.
Road conditions will likely change over the course of the next few hours and days, depending on the amount of rain we receive and the predicted crest times of area rivers and creeks. We will keep you updated with any changes to school operations as soon as possible.
Dragon Nation was overflowing with love this afternoon with a house full of grandparents and special visitors! Thank you to all who were able to attend! Thank you also to our amazing music teacher, Mrs. Brown, for putting together a very special K-6 program! 💗💜💛💗

Shout out to one of our own, 🤩Megan Ketner🤩, for helping lead a session. 💜💛
