Welcome back to what is going to be another great school year!  There has been a lot happening this summer while students and most staff have been at home.  I thought you would like an update to some of the improvements. 

  • Athletic updates including goal posts painted and the gym floor at the HS redone

  • 15 classrooms at KT were painted

  • All the parking lots were sealed and coated 

  • A new bus and car rider drop off/pick up process was put into place at KT

  • Our new boiler system is being installed in the JH/HS with a completion date of early October - Thank you voters!

  • We have a new camera system that will be installed the last week in August

 

We would like to welcome some new staff this year and hope you take some time to get to know them!

  • Karie Brown - HS counselor

  • Carol Hoskin - bus aide

  • Savannah Rutherford - KT classroom aide

  • Mike Walters - custodial/maintenance

  • Murphy - our 2nd therapy dog at KT

  • Corrie Bott - assistant treasurer

  • Kyle Kiffer - district treasurer

 

In addition, we have a great NEW opportunity for our students with a partnership through Akron Children’s Hospital.  We will have a nurse practitioner on site 1 day a week to start the year and then move to 2 days a week this fall.  Our nurse practitioner is Rachel Patterson.  If your child has a sore throat, cough, ear ache, etc. she can see your child without you needing to make an appointment with your pediatrician.  In addition she will offer sports physicals to our students as well.  There is paperwork coming home with your child that you will need to fill out in order for Rachel to see them but wow, what a great resource for our families!  This opportunity was provided through a grant from the Ohio Department of Health and is not costing our district any dollars to offer!  

 

In the spring, the board of education adopted a new district vision and mission statement that was created by our district leadership team.  In addition, we worked on what we would like all of the students to graduate with when they leave Windham.  We are calling this our “Flightpath of a Bomber” and I hope you will click on the “About Windham” tab on the website to learn more about it.  This was developed by staff, parents, students and a board member.  You will see and hear more about this as the year progresses.  

 

This is lining up to be an awesome year and I can’t wait to see everyone back this fall.  Here’s to a great start and Go Bombers!
