The February 21st Board of Education meeting took place in the Middle School room 533 and a recap of the meeting is below.

1. High School Principal Aaron Seewer and Assistant Principal Rachel Cornett presented along with high school seniors regarding the High School re-design process and tour opportunity. Read more details in the Wilmington Journal.

2. A renewal levy fact sheet for the March 19 election was approved by the Board. Click on the image to see the fact sheet.

3. On April 8th, a Total Solar Eclipse will affect our regular scheduled school day with many traveling across Ohio. With the recommendation of the Superintendent, the Board has approved CMLSD to be closed on April 8th, 2024 to ensure the safety of our students and staff.

On April 8, 2024, a total solar eclipse will cross North America. On this date, people within a 124-mile-wide band in the state of Ohio will experience a total solar eclipse. Only 21 total solar eclipses have crossed the lower 48 states in the entire existence of the United States. More information about the eclipse can be found at https://science.nasa.gov/eclipses/future-eclipses/eclipse-2024/where-when.

Due to this rare and spectacular event, and with Ohioans traveling to near our county, we need to prepare how it will affect our regular school day. Clinton-Massie Local Schools will be closed on April 8th, 2024. Students and staff will return to a normal school day on Tuesday, April, 9th 2024.

Our facilities need immediate attention as some are on the verge of not being useable due to safety concerns and many need significant upgrades over the next 1-3 years to allow continued use. The district is asking for community financial support through a grassroots funding program.

We aim to partner with local businesses and community members to drive facility upgrades. Local businesses and community members are rewarded with many great sponsorship opportunities including but not limited to Naming Rights, Advertisement Opportunities, Donor Wall Recognition, PA Announcements, Season Passes, etc.

The entire project is approximately $2.5 million dollars. The "1st quarter" of the 4 Quarter Drive focuses on replacing the turf. It is 13 years old and at the end of life. An average turf field lasts between 8-12 years. The turf provides athletic opportunities for our football, soccer, lacrosse, youth teams, band, and community. It is a revenue generator for our school, so it needs to be our focus.

See the video below for an introduction and http://clearvision.cmfalcons.org for more information. Reach out to Brian Carey (brian.carey@cmfalcons.org) with questions.

Falcon Flight Paths will serve as an executive summary of what is happening in each grade level. Listed below are the slideshows we used to start the last two school years, and below those are the Flight Paths for each of our grade levels, our unified art classes, our extended standard learners, and our whole-child focus.

#FridayFocus provides Superintendent David Moss the opportunity to interview a student each week to learn more about them, as well as their school experience. Our students are amazing! Come see for yourself! Check out the full playlist here.
