Worth Knowing
The Official Worthington School District Newsletter
On this Veterans Day, we pause to honor and express our deepest gratitude to the brave men and women who have served our country. Their courage, dedication, and selfless commitment to protecting our freedoms represent the very best of our nation.
On behalf of our school district, we extend our heartfelt appreciation to all veterans, including those within our school community and the families who have supported them.
We are grateful for your service, your sacrifice, and the example you set for our students and future generations.
With Election Day behind us, we can all appreciate turning on the television without an endless parade of campaign ads. It is a welcome breather. But as we head into the holiday season, school districts across Ohio are turning their attention back to the Statehouse.
With the election wrapped up, state lawmakers return to the Statehouse for what is known as the “lame duck” session. The weeks between now and the end of the General Assembly are traditionally fast-paced and unpredictable, as lawmakers push to clear remaining priority bills before the term expires.
In Worthington, we’re watching several education-related bills carefully.
We want to hear from you!
As we work to develop thoughtful guidelines for the use of artificial intelligence (AI) in our schools, your voice matters. We know there are different perspectives on AI, from its potential to prepare students for the future to concerns about academic rigor, student privacy and screen time.
We're asking all families, staff, and students in grades 6–12 to share their thoughts through our districtwide survey. Your feedback will help shape how we move forward while staying true to our Worthington values.
Read the latest superintendent blog post about AI, and please take a few minutes to complete the survey and make your voice heard!
