Erin's Law ~ SB288:

All of you should have received a district email pertaining to Erin's Law. The Ohio Department of Education and Workforce (DEW), formally called the Ohio Department of Education, has shared with public schools across the state Senate Bill 288. This legislation requires that health education curricula be updated to include (K-12/developmentally appropriate) prevention education information in the areas of sexual abuse and sexual violence for students in public schools.

As promised, the district is providing an opportunity for families to review the curriculum, and parents may opt their students out of the lessons if they choose. For more information from the Ohio Department of Education- Click HERE.

If you need more information please see the letter that was sent in the district email and is included here, INFORMATIONAL LETTER. If you have further questions contact Holli Hansel for more information on Erin's Law and/or opting your student out of this curriculum, hanselh@talawanda.org.

Please Remember!!!

Please remember that all chromebook insurance must be paid in full by November 30th.

Tuesday/Thursday Help Sessions:

If your student has missed any assignments during the week, their teacher will hand them a "green slip" on Friday that shows which assignments still need to be turned in. The student will also automatically be scheduled for a help session after school the following week to finish the work. Parents will receive an email notification.

The student can either complete the work prior to the help session date, or attend the session and get help from a teacher. Better learning and higher grades begin with work completion, and we want to help!

Lunch Accounts:

As a reminder, you are able to add funds to your student's lunch account through the Talawanda EZ Pay system. If your student's account reaches -$50 it will be rolled into your school fees. Please be mindful and keep your student's account current. You can use Talawanda EZ Pay, send a check or cash to the school office to take care of your student's balance.
