This issue of the “Redskin Review” contains our annual financial report along with enrollment trends. The report provides information on the fiscal operations of your school district. We continue to strive to provide a high quality educational experience for our students that prepares them for post-secondary education and future employment. We also continue to focus on the maintenance and upkeep of our current facilities. These priorities cannot be accomplished without the continuous support of our community.

 

Fort Loramie Schools received many awards and accolades for their performance on state testing. As a district we achieved 5/5 stars on the latest report card and ranked 8^th out of 607 districts statewide. In terms of the Performance Index rankings, the elementary school was in the top 1% of schools in the state and our high school was ranked 13^th. The US News & World Report also ranked our junior high as #2 and our high school as #13 throughout Ohio. As you can see, a lot of positive recognition is bestowed upon your school district and there is a lot to be proud of.

 

We are also pleased to be providing mental health counseling for our students. This was made possible by our participation in the Community Foundation Match Day. The Fort Loramie Education Foundation was instrumental in organizing this opportunity. You will be able to read more about how Match Day has positively affected our students in this newsletter.

 

It is also important to recognize the achievements of our fall extra-curricular participants, advisors, and coaches. Each of them have put a lot of time and energy into these endeavors. Once again, our students continue to excel inside and outside of the classroom.

 

I would like to congratulate our Wall of Honor inductees, Larry Ludlow and Dave Ross. Both of these gentleman have impacted our school and community in many positive ways. It is also necessary to thank the Wall of Honor committee for their work in selecting the inductees and organizing the ceremony.

 

On behalf of the faculty, students, Board of Education, and administration, I want to thank the community for the contributions you make to your school system. As indicated above, we have many achievements and successes to be proud of. I wish you all a very happy and healthy Holiday season.

Sincerely,
