April News

Dear Families, I hope everyone enjoys their well deserved Spring Break. The students have been working very hard during the school year. We are in the home stretch of the school year. During the month of April we will finish up Ohio State testing and start planning our Maymester. During the month of April the entire school will participate in One School, One Book. It is designed to create a shared reading experience within the school. We will be reading Charlottes Web. Stay tuned for more information from classroom teachers. If you have any questions, comments or concerns, please feel free to call me at (740-282-1651). Tommy Kotsanis Principal, Wells Academy tkotsanis@rollred.org

Safety in the street. The morning “drop off” time before school and afternoon “pick up” times have students and parents negotiating a very busy parking lot. PLEASE DRIVE SLOWLY AND CAUTIOUSLY and put the safety of our students first.  The drop off lane right in front of the school is a “hug and go lane”, please stay in your car, give them a hug, send them out to the sidewalk on the right side of your car. Children exiting cars on the left hand side could be stepping out into traffic. If you need to help your child out of the car or they must exit on the left, then you need to park in the lot to ensure everyone’s safety. We need the line to move quickly so parents with other morning commitments can be on time.
