Dr. Beth Gray stopped by to share her incredible carnivorous plant collection, and it was a HUGE hit. Students were captivated as they learned how these unique plants collect nitrogen to survive—science in action at its finest!
Thank you, Dr. Gray, for bringing such a fascinating hands-on lesson to our students! 🌿✨

🎄Ada Schools Give Back to Our Troops This Holiday Season 🎄
Ada students are spreading holiday cheer across the globe! ❤️🎁 This year, several classes created handmade Christmas ornaments that will be sent to U.S. troops stationed in Kuwait — a special part of Operation Evergreen, an annual project organized by the Ohio Christmas Tree Association.
Through Operation Evergreen, Kaleidoscope Farms and other Ohio tree growers donate live Christmas trees that are shipped overseas to bring a touch of home to our active military members during the holidays. 🎄✈️
A big thank-you to the students (and teachers!) who shared their creativity and care in this meaningful project:
✨ Mr. Crawford
✨ Mrs. Preston
✨ Mrs. Jones
✨ Mrs. Woodruff
✨ Mr. Dettering & Mrs. Amburgey
✨ Mrs. Wissman
✨ Mrs. Fries
We’re so proud of our Bulldogs for helping make the season brighter for those serving our country! 💙❤️

Great work, Yearbook Staff! 💜🐾

A heartfelt thank-you to all the parents and families who attended conferences this week. We truly value the time you take to partner with us in supporting your child’s growth and learning.
It is a great pleasure to work together to ensure our students’ success—academically, socially, and beyond. Your involvement and collaboration make a tremendous difference.🐾

Students toured the facility to get a first-hand look at cutting-edge manufacturing in action. These tours are designed to introduce students to real-world career opportunities, showcase the company’s operations, and spark interest in STEM fields and future manufacturing careers.
We’re grateful for partnerships that help our students explore pathways, build curiosity, and envision what’s possible beyond the classroom. Great job, Bulldogs! 👏🔧✨

Students had the opportunity to learn about the many resources, career pathways, and benefits these valuable options offer. Our visitors also brought some fun—students who completed a round of push-ups earned a free t-shirt!
A big thank-you to our military partners for investing in our students’ futures and providing hands-on, engaging experiences! 💪✨
