This week was National Police Week. We want to take a moment to personally thank our school resource officers, the Wapakoneta Police Department, our Sheriff's Office, and the Highway Patrol for all that they do for our community. We are very fortunate to live in a community with outstanding individuals who protect and serve us every day. Thank you for all that you do for Wapakoneta City Schools and our city!

We’re excited to introduce Mrs. Kimberly Newfer as one of the newest members of our teaching team! With a career in education that began in 1996 as an educational aide and a teaching license earned in 2011, Mrs. Newfer brings years of experience, passion, and dedication to the classroom. She is a proud graduate of Allen East and Apollo and earned her Master of Education degree from Wright State University. Originally from Lafayette, she now lives in Shawnee with her family.
Outside of school, Mrs. Newfer is a proud wife, mom, and “Mimi” to her granddaughter. She enjoys spending time with her family (and their Goldendoodle, Scottie!), exploring Ohio towns, reading, traveling—especially to the coast—and creating engaging classroom materials.
Mrs. Newfer is most excited to join a district that values community and inclusivity and looks forward to supporting student success both academically and personally.
Help us give her a warm Wapak welcome! 🍎📚✏️
