Elementary principals report improved attendance, testing supports and PTO donations
Summary
Elementary leadership reported every grade exceeded an 80% weekly attendance goal and reached at least 90%, described attendance incentives and the donation of snacks from Waterloo Community Helping Hands for testing days, and noted upcoming PTO events and yearbook deadlines.
The elementary principal (S6) told the board every grade exceeded the district’s recent weekly attendance goal of 80%, with a minimum of 90% across grades. As a reward, students participated in a duct‑tape activity and are working toward 'pancakes with the principal' as a building incentive.
S6 said Ohio State testing for grades 3–6 will begin next week for English language arts and the following week for mathematics, with grade‑level specifics for science testing (5th grade). The principal thanked Waterloo Community Helping Hands for a pledge to donate snacks for testing days and noted PTO plans for an April 25 'Night Under the Stars' event and yearbook sign‑ups.
The board acknowledged the volunteers and PTO funding; one board member noted PTO would cover K–4 field trips and related 5th‑grade activities. The donation and event approvals were included in the meeting’s consent items.
