Happy Holidays!
There is no better way to celebrate the first day of winter than with the start of winter break! ❄️❄️☃️❄️❄️
No school for students starting tomorrow, Friday, December 22, through January 5. Enjoy your time off, and we will see you after the new year.
Hannah Johnson, kitchen manager at Valley Elementary, is this week’s staff spotlight! ⭐️⭐️⭐️
Hannah has been with the district for two years and hopes to teach students the importance of kindness. She says, “Acts of kindness make the world a better place for everyone.”
Hannah’s parents are to whom she attributes her success, as they have always supported and encouraged her. They also modeled a good work ethic and strong values growing up.
If there is one thing she hopes people know about our district, it would be that we have so many wonderful staff members, and our students are always the top priority!

Mr. Shaw, 3rd grade teacher at Shaw Elementary, figured out one way to get his students excited about reading!
On Fridays, each student gets a flashlight and carpet square to go anywhere in the room for reading time. Mr. Shaw then turns off the lights, and students read using flashlights. The students absolutely love this activity! #FlashlightFridays
Yesterday, a Woodwind Quintet from the Dayton Philharmonic Orchestra stopped by Shaw Elementary to perform and educate our 3rd graders. Students learned about the instruments and made connections to skills learned in music class!

Today was a great day for learning as we had various staff professional development going on. Our BHS teachers learned about ways to use data to inform instructional strategies. Our middle school teachers spent time collaborating to learn more about the characteristics and needs of our students and how we can better support them, and some of our elementary staff spent time learning more about emotional intelligence.
Join us tonight for Open House Night! Each of our buildings will host an open house for students and parents to stop by and meet teachers, get acquainted with the building and classrooms, and get ready to start the school year off next week.
