Payne Elementary Title 1 News
The Title 1 Reading program is a federally
funded program to provide additional assistance
in reaching reading proficiency for students in
grades kindergarten through third. The following
criteria are used to select students to participate
in the Title 1 program:
Ohio Department of Education Reading
Diagnostic score of not on track for grade level.
State standardized reading score of limited or
basic in any given reading area.
AIMSweb reading assessment indicating at
risk in any given reading area.
Star Reading test indicating below grade level
reading placement.
Teacher criteria checklist indicating classroom
performance below expected level.
Kindergarten fall testing indicating at risk
students.
Students must qualify in at least two criteria
areas to receive additional reading instruction by
the Title 1 teacher or the Title 1 instructional
aide. Students typically receive an additional 2030 minutes of reading instruction each day.
Should you have any questions, please feel free
to contact Mrs. April Krouse, the Title 1 teacher.
An informational meeting will be scheduled as
soon as all fall assessments are completed.
WT JR./SR. HIGH SCHOOL
Phil Nofziger, Principal
It has been my pleasure to help open the 20152016 school year at Wayne Trace Jr./Sr. High
School. The staff and students have been very
welcoming to me and I trust the same can be said
with all new students and staff members. My
expectation for students and staff is for everyone
to give their best effort. I have been very pleased
with what I have observed these first weeks of
school. I have found your sons and daughters to
be respectful and polite. Parents, you should be
very proud!
Educationally, I am impressed with the tools
that our students have been given to help
prepare them for todays world. The laptop
computers that are available for all students can
be wonderful devices to enhance education if
used properly. We will continue to seek ways to
use the technology that is available to make sure
our students are ready for 21st century skills.
It was noted last year that our present sophomores will be the first class that will not be
responsible to take the Ohio Graduation Tests as
a requirement for graduation. The Class of 2018
(sophomores) and beyond are required to take
seven end of course exams that the state of
Ohio is providing in the following areas: English I
and II, Algebra I, Geometry, American History,
American Government and Biology (the Class of
2018 took a Physical Science test last year as
their science but the Class of 2019 and beyond
have the Biology requirement). One change from
last year is that a performance based assessment
that was given in March or April has been eliminated for the future. This will provide more time
on task and relieve some of the testing time
that had been required of our students. Each of
the seven exams will be scored on a scale from
one to five (five being the highest). A total of 18
points is required to meet the state graduation
requirement along with the credit requirements
set up by the state of Ohio and our local Wayne
Trace board of education.
I want to thank all parents who have completed the forms necessary for your sons and daughters to attend Wayne Trace Jr./Sr. High School.
As a reminder, we must have emergency medical
information on each student. Parents, if you
have not filled an emergency medical form out,
please do as soon as possible. If it has been
misplaced, please contact us and we will make
sure you receive one immediately. Also, if you
believe that your son or daughter would qualify
for a free or reduced lunch, please complete the
form and return it to our office.
Lastly, there is a tremendous amount of pride
in the Wayne Trace School District. We look to
continue a tradition of excellence in all that we
do at WTJH/HS. It will be my goal to help every
teacher improve instruction and each student to
learn what is necessary to be successful educationally and in life. I consider it a privilege to
serve as principal of Wayne Trace Jr./Sr. High
School.

PAULDING EXEMPTED VILLAGE SCHOOLS

SEPTEMBER 2015 NEWSLETTER

SUPERINTENDENTS MESSAGE
Dear Friends of the Paulding Exempted Vil
lage Schools,
The 20152016 school year is off to a suc
cessful start, which is a direct result of the
work of all staff members throughout the
summer. Even when school is closed, our
staff is hard at work preparing the buildings,
busses, and working on new academic initia
tives. We have many new staff members that
are excited to be part of the Panther family
this year and we are very fortunate to have
such a dedicated staff. I hope you take time
to visit our buildings and see for yourself the
great things happening in Education. When
great schools and great communities team
up, the results have no limit.
Bus routes are adjusted throughout the
school year as students move and new stu
dents come to the district. I would like to
remind families that students are only al
lowed one pick up and one drop off stop,
although we do allow students to get off
the bus at a different stop if the following
conditions are met:
*The student is still riding his/her regular
bus.
*The stop is on the regular route.
*There is a signed note from the parent re
questing the change for that day. The note
must be presented to the office in advance
and signed by the principal or secretary.
Keep in mind, any changes in bus transporta
tion may require a minimum of two days to
process. Please be patient with the process,
and please contact the transportation supervisors office if questions arise.
We have a growing number of students that
have many needs, and our community has
stepped up in many ways to assist. If you can
assist in any way, please feel free to contact
our building principals with questions or ide
as that can help our students.
The fall sports programs and activities are in
full action. Take time to attend an activity
and support the students/ staff in their extra
curricular activities. Senior citizen passes are
available in the administration building for
district residents who are ages 65 and over.
These passes grant free admission to all
home athletic events.
I am looking forward to another productive
school year, which will bring new opportuni
ties and challenges. If you have comments or
concerns about the school district, please feel
free to contact me at any time. My email
address is w_hanak@pauldingschools.org
and the phone number is 4193994656 x
1510. Go Panthers!
William D. Hanak, Superintendent
NOTES FROM THE PRINCIPALS
Paulding Elementary-Stephanie Tear
We are well on our way in the 20152016
school year! The positive attitudes and ex
citement for learning is evident at Paulding
Elementary School! I want to say a special
thank you to students, parents, teachers and
the community for making our school year
start off with pride and joy! Its great to be a
miniPanther!
Paulding Elementary is continuing to support
the Ronald McDonald House by collecting
pull tabs. Last year we were able to contrib
ute enough to receive a Hero of the Heart
award which is proudly displayed in our hall
way. It is a reminder to our students to be
part of a giving society. Another way we are
being super citizens is collecting food for a
food drive and information will be coming
home as it starts soon. We are always look
ing for opportunities for our children to give
back! I once read, There is no exercise
better for the heart than reaching down and
lifting people up. It is good to instill that
lesson early in life.
Dismissal time can be a very stressful time
for students, parents and staff. As a principal,
my greatest concern is safety; both physical
and emotional. I want the children to feel
secure about their afternoon dismissal time.
This year we will be utilizing a new product
called, mybackpacktags! I have explained
how it works to all the students and the di
rections have also been sent home. Myback
packtags are required for students to wear on
their backpack for safety of the students. Par
ents are still required to provide written
notice when your child will change after
noon dismissal routine. Important reminder:
if you have to make a phone call to the office
you must call by 2:30. No calls will be
guaranteed after 2:30 due to the number of
students in our school. We have a passion
and urgency to ensure safety for Paulding
Elementary students and we appreciate your
support.
Our PTO is a wonderful resource to the chil
dren at Paulding Elementary School. The
volunteers work very hard and diligently to

provide amazing opportunities and support

for their school days. Please think about join
ing this group and contributing your time and
talent to making children great!
Paulding Elementary strives to create an en
vironment where students feel safe, where
students learn to give back, and where stu
dents are engaged in learning. The teachers
are of great caliber at Paulding Elementary
and they are determined to have the best les
sons for each day ready for your children.
One thing I learned this summer was that it is
okay for children to fail in fact, isnt that
how we grow? What if the secret to success
is failure? Our children need to grow the
capacities to be able to handle difficult mo
ments, and failure is one of them. As our stu
dents grow and make their brains stronger,
our teachers are here to support and encour
age them to success! It is my heartfelt desire
that every child at Paulding Elementary feel
embraced and valuedand you can feel con
fident that we work daily towards success for
each and every child!
Oakwood Elementary-Jennifer Manz
Good Morning from Oakwood Elementary
on a beautiful, sunny August day! As I am
writing this, the staff and students are getting
settled in for their first full week of school.
Each day, I try to spend a little time in each
classroom (a very favorite part of my job!);
and I took the opportunity to do that this
morning before I sat down to type this arti
cle. I am always amazed at how quickly
children settle into a routine and become
familiar with different teachers expecta
tions. It was great to see how much learning
and exploring is already taking place and to
see the positive attitudes and eagerness the
children bring to these activities. I would
say we have hit the ground running!
Thank you to all who attended our open
house on August 18th. It is a wonderful
chance for parents to see the environment in
which their children will be spending so
much of the next nine months, and for teach
ers to be able to put family faces with names.
One of the items each family received during
open house or on the first day of school, was
the student/parent handbook. We encourage
you to look through the handbook and to
keep it in a place where it can be referenced
if you have a question about general school
policies. As this year progresses and ques
tions arise, please contact your childs teach
er right away giving them the opportunity to
clarify directions and/or provide immediate
interventions.
Friday, September 4th is a Professional De
velopment Day for our teachers, therefor stu
dents do not have school that day, and also
there is no school on Monday, September 6th,
which is Labor Day. Enjoy the four day
weekend!
I want to say a special thank you to parents,
teachers, and the community for your roles in
making this school year the best educational
opportunity possible for our children.
Middle School-Chris Etzler
Hello from Paulding Middle School! We are
just starting our first full week of school as
of this writing. We had a great first two days
last week as students and parents were out in
force for our Open House last week. It was
very well attended and I want to thank par
ents and family members for coming to meet
teachers and to allow their students to get
acclimated to a new building and/or class
rooms.
We used Friday, August 21 as our first Team
Time Friday, where teachers and students did
different activities to get to know each other
better. Teachers used the two hour time
period also for students to select a team
name, team motto and team mission state
ment. It was a very productive afternoon.
Our annual Middle School fundraiser will
run this year from August 25 to September 9.
This year we are selling a variety of items
including trash bags. This year our fund
raiser will have an online component, where
merchandise can be ordered and paid for
online and delivered to the purchasers
house, so there is no reason to not ask Grand
ma, Grandpa, or any other relative that lives
out of town to order! Our kickoff was held
on August 25. Please see a Middle School
student and ask them about this fundraiser!
Fall pictures will be taken on Tuesday, Sep
tember 8. On September 10, we will have an
assembly presented by Camfel Productions
titled Be Amazing. It will focus on the
importance of setting goals and the work
ethic necessary to achieve those goals. It
should be a very good presentation for our
students.
Please make sure to keep a positive balance
on your students lunch account, and also,
please make sure school fees are paid.
Our athletic teams have been practicing hard
through the month of August to prepare for

the fall sports season. All of them will start

their seasons in the next couple of weeks.
Our teams schedules are on our school web
site. We wish our athletes and coaches good
luck this fall!
Our first inservice day for teachers will be
held on Friday, September 4. Students will
not have to report to school on this day. En
joy the four day weekend! First nine weeks
interim reports will be sent out on Tuesday,
September 22.
Thank you for your continued support of
Paulding Middle School!
High School-Todd Harmon
Paulding High School welcomes back stu
dents to start the year. Thank you to those
who were able to attend our open house
meeting. We had a great turn out of parents
where we could set the tone to make the PHS
student experience and ways for success, the
best they can be. This cannot be done with
out parents help and collaboration.
We held our first Freshman Transitions
program on the first day of school, which is
designed to alleviate the concerns of incom
ing freshman and to make positive connec
tions while familiarizing the students with
the process and procedures designed to help
them be successful all four years of high
school.
We want to thank all of the PHS teachers
for all they have done to make the school
year start on a very positive note. Students
will be involved in fun activities by Houses
and will compete for the honor of winning
and being named on the House cup. There
will be incentives each 9 weeks for who is in
the lead for points. Points will be earned
from competitions during assemblies, grades,
behavior, citizenship/house involvement, and
attendance. The Houses are mixing grades 9
12 and each house has a teacher as a leader
to help in making sure all students get a
chance to be involved and keep the fun in
education, while challenging students to
problem solve, overcome and adapt to obsta
cles, and develop character and academic
goals that will help students in attaining col
lege and career skills. Paulding High School
wants all students to have a positive experi
ence while preparing for eventual testing
without the stress of test taking.
