The Junior Farmer's Market took place today with all fourth graders across the district. Students learned about soil, pollination, fresh produce, and about healthy eating. Each student was given five coins to purchase items from the farmers market as well. Thank you, Marcus McCartney and the OSU extension office for making this possible.
Way to show your school spirit. Go Cadets!

COVID guidelines have changed this year. We are now treating it like a respiratory illness. The Ohio Department of Health recommends we follow CDC guidelines. These recommended guidelines say:
They should be 24 hours fever free without the use of fever-reducing medication (ibuprofen, tylenol, etc) AND
Symptoms should be improving
It is recommended that when they return, they wear a mask, but again not required.
Therefore, we will not be using the COVID Exempt code this year. Instead it will be parent excused days or medical excused days if they have a note from a doctors office. Below is the link to the CDC website where the information can be found.
