Shawnee Schools are on a 2 hour delay. Friday, February 23, 2024
We would like to take a moment to recognize the school counselors who work so hard to help our students succeed. National School Counseling Week is the perfect time to acknowledge all of the work that these counselors put into our school district. This year's American School Counselor Association theme is "Standards-Based, Student Focused" and it's the perfect description of the mindset that our counselors carry each day.
Thank you to our school counselors: Mrs. Rex, Mrs. Bidlack, Ms. Wood, Mrs. Schmiedebusch, Mr. Christoff, Mrs. Melson, as well as our Student and Family Support Coordinator Stephanie Kiefer. Please take the time this week to thank your school counselor for all that they do!

The Americanism and Government Test program is a joint venture and partnership with the Ohio American Legion Auxiliary, a cosponsor of the program. The test consists of fifty (50) True/False, multiple choice, and fill-in the blank questions. Every student taking the test also writes a 300 word essay on the same topic.
Through a number of judging levels in the state of Ohio to select Post, County, and District winners, the initial field of 65,000 students is narrowed to 84 district winners, whose winning test papers are submitted to a State Judging Committee for this program. District winners are submitted to a State Judging Committee to select the State Award winners. Congratulations Andrew, Caiden, Kelly and Emily on your advancement to the County level!
Maplewood School's inaugural Turkey Trot took place at SHS stadium on November 9. The event was a part of the school's commitment to the Daily Mile routine, aiming to encourage daily activity among students.

Following the run, INEOS generously provided snacks, and the Kona Ice truck offered refreshing treats for the young participants, creating a fun and active community experience.
