RECAP FROM THE ART ROOM RECAP FROM THE ART ROOM

Students have been designing their "portfolio folders" to store and protect their artwork for the school year. Students discussed personal aesthetic, and referenced personal style and interests to express themselves through visual art.

HS STUDENT COUNCIL

Reminder that all Student Council Applications are due in the office by 2:35pm on Monday, August 24!

NEW STATE OF OHIO ATTENDANCE LAW NEW STATE OF OHIO ATTENDANCE LAW

The Ohio Department of Education and Workforce released official guidance in mid-October 2025, requiring all school districts to align with this new law.
The Twin Valley Community Local School District is actively implementing these changes to ensure full legal compliance, while maintaining a commitment to fairness, transparency, and partnership with our TVS families.
Under the new law, medical absences are no longer counted separately from other excused absences.
What this means is that ALL time missed from school—whether excused, medical, or unexcused—now counts toward a student’s total hours missed for the school year.
The new attendance requirements have taken effect for the 2026–2027 school year.
The Twin Valley Community Local School District is committed to implementing these changes in a fair, transparent, and student-centered way. Our goal is to ensure families are informed, supported, and actively involved in the process—long before any legal or punitive measures are considered. This proactive approach allows us to keep the focus where it belongs: on helping every student attend, engage, and succeed.
Families with questions about attendance, absences, or intervention plans are encouraged to contact your school secretary.

STUDENT PARKING

Students need to obtain a parking permit to park their vehicles in the school lot. Parking permits allow school administration/resource officer to easily identify which vehicles are supposed to be in the TVS parking lot. This is a critical safety measure that helps to prevent unauthorized vehicles from loitering in the lot and can be used to quickly identify a car in case of an emergency or an incident in the parking area. The "parking permit" form can be picked up in the MS/HS office. The form needs to be filled out and signed by both parent/guardian and the student.
