Please help us welcome Amy Traucht to Cridersville Elementary!
A proud graduate of Wapakoneta High School (Class of 1999), she was raised in Cridersville and has always loved the charm of small-town life. With 27 years of experience working with children from birth through age 12 and a degree in Early Childhood Education, she brings a wealth of knowledge and heart to our team.
Fun fact: She's as down-to-earth as they come and wears her heart on her sleeve—always willing to help anyone in need.
She’s thrilled to join CES and looks forward to being a positive role model for all our students!

👊 Today is Para Educator Appreciation Day — and we couldn't let it pass without recognizing some of the most hardworking, patient, and dedicated people in our schools.
Our para educators go above and beyond to support students, teachers, and classrooms in so many ways. They’re problem solvers, encouragers, and team players—and they make a real difference every single day.
To all of our amazing para educators: thank you for everything you do. You are truly appreciated. ❤️
