Kramer Carnival
It's almost Kramer Carnival time! Kramer Carnival is Oct. 5, 2-5. The Carnival committee has been working hard to plan a fun & successful event for Kramer kids. We need your help make Kramer Carnival a success! Our first sign-up is is for food donations (not gourmet for Cake & Pie auction). We need mass quantities of baked goods - both decorated & plain - as well as candy for prizes. Please see the Sign-Up Genius for details.

Our second sign-up for the Kramer Carnival is to set up, work the event & break down. We need approximately 85 volunteers to put on this event. We try to source volunteers from Miami, the high school, middle school & every service organization that we can find. Ultimately, we need parents to help us out - 1 hour of your time to help run a game, setup or breakdown. This is our second largest fundraiser of the year - we made over $8,000 last year - and we want to continue to see it to be successful.

New Elementary Report Card
For the past year teachers, parents, and administrators have met to discuss and give input on the EMONI grading system used to report how students are performing in the classroom. After much input and reflection, Talawanda Elementary schools; Kramer, Bogan, and Marshall will be changing from the EMONI reporting system to a numerical system. The purpose of this reporting change is to better communicate with parents and students about the achievement of grade level expectations. Students will be marked using a 4 point scale indicating how well a student has mastered the grade-level standards.

THS Basketball will be hosting several skills clinics. This is for all boys or girls students who are interested in a skills camp. The cost is just $5.00 per day. THS Skills Clinic
