Class lists will be posted on the front doors of the school after 3:00 p.m. so you can find your student's teacher.

August 17:  Supply Night
The building will be open from 5:30-6:30 p.m. and teachers will be in their classrooms. You may stop by to see the room, meet the teacher, and bring any supplies.

August 19 and 20:  Kindergarten Readiness Assessments
By appointment only. Schedule your assessment time here. All incoming kindergarten students are required by the state of Ohio to take the KRA. No preparation is necessary! Each KRA session will take approximately 30 minutes.  Teachers will work one-on-one with each student. Parents are welcome to drop their child off or wait in the lobby area. If you choose to drop off, please return within the 30 minute appointment slot. Choose a time below that works best for your child.
