It is the end of July and at Wapakoneta City Schools we are working hard to have everything in place for the students' first day of school.   As always, I am excited to see our young people back in the classroom!  Seeing the energy they bring to the buildings and watching them learn and grow is the reason we are all here.  The first day of school will be August 18, and I know we will have another successful school year. 

This summer our staff has been busy updating our facilities so that we can continue to have some of the best in the state.  New flooring, technology improvements, new lockers, school buses, and much more.  To give our young people the best education possible, our staff has continued to invest countless hours in professional development and training.  We have also continued to invest in new textbook series and online resources in all of our school buildings. Our dedicated staff truly cares about our kids and continually looks at how they can improve their skills and their tools to help them achieve.

This summer we have had a successful summer camp at for grades K-7 and our coaches and advisors have been running sport and band camps. Activities in and around the buildings never end.   I want to thank all our custodians, maintenance staff, food service, secretaries and support staff for all they do in getting our district ready for your kids. This group of people are always working to help us  #bebetter!

As you enjoy the rest of your summer break, I want you to know that we will continue to do everything we can to be prepared to give your children the best educational experience possible.  I am confident that all our staff members will be ready when August 18 comes around.  I would also like to take this chance to invite you to our “Back-to-School Celebration” on August 13. We hope you can make it!

At Wapakoneta City Schools, we love our students. We will continue to do everything we can to give them an outstanding school year.  Enjoy your summer and we will see you on August 13 and August 18!
