CREEK FACT FRIDAY!
Meet Roger Coy! Born on March 9, 1932 (the same year Main was built), Roger's journey through our school district is nothing short of remarkable. 🌟 Before starting his career with BCS, Roger graduated from the Main building in 1950.
From bus driver to assistant superintendent, he held various roles, including secondary curriculum supervisor, assistant principal, and social studies teacher. 🚌👨🏫 His dedication didn't stop there - Roger's very first position was as a wrestling coach! 🤼♂️ After 32 years of service, he retired from BCS in 1988.
Bonus Fun fact: Roger's family are descendants of Jacob Coy, after whom Coy Middle School is named. 🏫
Tomorrow is Roger's 92nd birthday. Help us wish him a very happy birthday! 🧡🖤

This week, our Valley Third Graders presented their Animal Research Reports.
For these projects, students transform into Zoologists to answer the PBL driving question: How can I as a Zoologist design the ideal habitat for the animal of my choosing?
Students spent weeks researching and writing a five-paragraph informational essay on an animal's habitat, life cycle, predator/prey, adaptations, and fun facts. Then the students created a diorama supporting their research of the animal's habitat.
Check out some of these projects! 🦞🦎
Best of luck to our boys and girls bowling teams as they head off to the OHSAA State Tournament today! 🎳
Reminder: Tomorrow, March 8, is a staff work day. Students are not in school. Enjoy your weekend.

🌟 Staff Spotlight: Lori Howell! 🌟
Lori has been with Beavercreek City Schools for 16 years and works as a bus driver and BHS lunch monitor.
She is also "Rooted" in the BCS community as a Beavercreek High School Class of 1986 Alum!
During her career at BCS, she credits Sue Rex, her bus trainer with Kettering City Schools, as being the most influential person in her career. Lori started her driving career at Kettering almost 30 years ago.
Her favorite memories include meeting so many wonderful coworkers and making friends with many of them.
While not driving a bus or working in the cafeteria, Lori loves to spend time with her family, taking trips to the beach, gardening, and attending car shows with her husband.
"I am proud to be able to live and work in such a wonderful community with so many great people. I'm lucky to call Beavercreek home, " Lori said.
We are lucky to have her in our Creek family! 🧡🖤

Spoiler Alert!
The image features Edward Zink, Frank Zink, and Otto Zink! Edward's legacy is honored through the naming of the Beavercreek High School Fieldhouse, Frank's in the naming of the football stadium, and Otto's name graces the gym at Ferguson Hall.
The contributions of Ed, Frank, and Otto have left an indelible mark on our district. Yet, it's important to recognize that the entire Zink family has also made significant contributions. 🧡🖤
For example, the tree outside the athletic main office is in memory of the late Anton Zink. Also, Anton’s wife, Becky, has kept the scorebook for our basketball teams for 38 seasons now!
Do you have a favorite Zink memory? Let us know in the comments!
