🎓✨ Real-World Skills in Action! ✨🎓
Students in Mrs. Luffy’s English 12 class are doing more than just earning their final English credit—they’re getting a head start on their futures! Through a partnership with Clark State, students are also earning college credit for EBE 1000 📚🙌
Recently, students took part in a hands-on interview experience with amazing local community members who volunteered their time and expertise. Each student came prepared with a resume, practiced their interview skills in real time, and followed up with a professional thank-you letter—just like in the real world! 💼👏
These are the kinds of opportunities that truly make a difference—building confidence, communication skills, and career readiness all in one experience.
A huge THANK YOU to our community partners for investing in our students’ futures! 💙

🍎 We welcomed our class of 2039 for Kindergarten screenings this week. We can't wait to meet our newest students in the fall! ✏️
📚✨ We are proud to celebrate our High School English Department!
Recently, members of the team presented their project,Beyond Reading: Collaborative Model for School-wide Literacy Engagement at the OCTELA State Conference. Having their proposal selected was an honor, and their session drew many interested English teachers from across the state.
The team shared how they are creating meaningful ways for high school students to engage with books, build awareness of community resources like the Bookmobile and local library, and integrate the arts and humanities into hands-on classroom projects.
Students are divided into “houses” named after famous authors—similar to the house system in Harry Potter—and complete quarterly challenges that encourage creativity, collaboration, and a love of lifelong learning.
This dynamic project began with the support of a districtwide initiative to expand project-based learning opportunities, and the results have been outstanding! Looking ahead, the team plans to continue growing the program by partnering with the Springfield Museum of Art to bring even more opportunities to students in the coming year.
👏 Thank you to our English Department for representing us so well!

🇺🇸 Proud Moment for Two Outstanding Seniors! 🇺🇸
Congratulations to Brayden Bechtel and Anthony Thomas, who were honored at the first-ever Ohio Military Signing Day held March 10 at the National Veterans Memorial and Museum in Columbus.
Hosted by the Ohio Department of Education and Workforce, the event recognized students across the state who have committed to serving our country through military enlistment, ROTC scholarships, or service academies. Each student received a certificate and a special graduation cord in recognition of their commitment.
We are incredibly proud of Brayden and Anthony for choosing a path of service, leadership, and dedication to something greater than themselves. 🇺🇸
👏 Join us in congratulating these seniors as they prepare to serve our nation!

👗✨ ¡Desfile de Moda en Español! ✨👔
Our Spanish 2 students took learning to the runway with their very own Desfile de Moda (Fashion Show)!
Students wrote their own scripts in Spanish and then stepped onto the “red carpet” to present their outfits and showcase their language skills. From creative descriptions to confident presentations, they did a fantastic job bringing vocabulary and culture to life!
¡Excelente trabajo, estudiantes! 👏🇪🇸 (Excellent work, students!)

Their critical thinking, accuracy, and creativity really showed in this project. Way to go, students! 👏📚

⚙️🤖 Warrior Robotics Hits the Road! 🤖⚙️
Our Competition Robotics class traveled to their first-ever VEX Competition, and what a debut it was!
💥 FOUR out of FIVE teams advanced to the Round of 16
🏆 One team battled all the way to the Semi-Finals
It was a full day of learning — not just coding and building, but developing critical soft skills like communication, adaptability, teamwork, and real-time problem solving. Watching students troubleshoot under pressure and support one another was incredible.
And the coaches’ favorite moment of the day?
Students asking if they can take Robotics again in high school. 🙌
We couldn’t be prouder of this group for how they represented our school and embraced the challenge of their first competition.
**Powered by Springfield-Clark CTC, this class is one of 20+ classes available to students in partnership with Springfield-Clark CTC!
The Warriors will compete again this Saturday in Bellefontaine — let’s wish them luck!
⚙️❤️💙 Good luck, Warriors!
