Dismissal Changes-reminder
Student dismissal changes should be communicated with the classroom teacher. If there is a last minute/day of dismissal change for your student(s), calls need to be made to the office prior to 3:30 (MTRF) and 2:45 (W). Changes after these times can not be allowed.
Bogan Library
Our Bogan library collection has been packed out and is undergoing treatment to make sure there is no water damage from our Christmas day pipe break. The books will be out of the building for a few weeks and then will be returned. Mrs. Dallman has arranged for books for our students in the meantime. Thanks so much to everyone who has reached out. We really appreciate it!
Colder weather--don’t forget those coats and jackets!
The weather is turning cooler. If you need assistance with warmer clothing items (hats, gloves, coats), please reach out to Bogan social worker, Mrs. Franks or Mrs. Merz. We will be happy to assist you.
Also, please mark your child's names in their items. We have a number of jackets, sweatshirts, hats and gloves in the lost and found. If your child is missing some items, please have them check the lost and found outside the music room. We have quite a collection of coats, hats, etc right now!
Contacting Legislators
For those of you that attended PTG on Tuesday evening, I talked about contacting state legislators and the governor about school funding. Holli Hansel has placed the information on the TSD website. Please consider taking a few minutes to advocate for fair school funding for Ohio. The state of Ohio's funding for public schools has been found unconstitutional multiple times. I will be reaching out to our legislators and please consider taking a few moments to do the same.
Please consider writing to our Ohio Board of Education, and other state leaders and elected officials. Check out the talking points and letters we've shared on our district website.
