Adena Elementary School Parents and/or Guardians, Our Adena Elementary School Parent Advisory Committee will be meeting on Tuesday, January 24th at 5:30 p.m. The meeting will be held in our school library. The committee meets once a month and an agenda is shared with the group prior to each meeting. One of the topics that the six parents on the committee have been discussing is how they can help thank our staff for what they do for our students. Our teachers and support staff wear a lot of hats and take on a lot of different responsibilities to meet the needs of our students. They are a dedicated group and their love for our students is evident. As a team, we will come up with a plan to treat our staff with gifts and surprises throughout the remainder of the school year to thank them for all that they do for our Warriors. Other items that will be discussed at the next meeting are our adolescent literacy plan, state test results, and updates on PBIS. If you are interested in joining our Adena Elementary School Parent Advisory Committee, please email Josh Jones at josh.jones@adenalocalschools.com. Joshua A.

Under the guidance of Mr. Bluck’s FFA students, Mrs. Smith’s class got to build wood airplanes from kits. A leadership activity for our high school students and an opportunity for Mrs. Smith’s students to build a plane just like Wilbur and Orville Wright did.
