Students and their families enjoyed burgers, chips, pasta salad, and a wonderful salad bar prepared by Chef Erik Escola and the culinary students. In addition to the wonderful meal, BVA students were also introduced to many of the CTE programs available to them at both the Main Campus and Timken Career Center. Successful learning on a virtual platform requires independent learners who are self-disciplined and self-motivated. The majority of the students’ learning occurs autonomously with the BVA teaching team providing support both in-person and remotely through Google Meets. These twenty-eight students are role-model independent learners who succeeded in completing all of their first semester courses with high scores. The entire BVA staff applauds them and looks forward to celebrating with our graduating seniors on May 24th!

students will be on summer break before we know it, but for me and many of my colleagues, the wheels keep turning. That means we are deep in the planning for the next school year and even further into the future. Parents and students, please make sure you are registered as we are already working on our building schedules. Finally, as the weather breaks, a reminder to our community to watch out for our children as they get back outside to play. Come out and watch our spring athletes. Their schedules are included in this issue. Once again, thank you to all of our Canton City families and community members for your partnership in guiding the future of our city.

Preschool Registration Is Open NOW @ Schreiber!

The Early Learning Center @ Schreiber is a great place for your child to start!

Join us at preschool! The Center is “play-based” and incorporates pre-academics to prepare your child for success.

CCSD Preschool registration for the 22-23 school year has opened! Early childhood is the most critical phase of human development. This school year we launched the Early Learning Center @ Schreiber and the year has proven to be a positive, high-quality learning experience for our littlest learners. The Center is “play-based” incorporating pre-academics to help students become school ready. A heavy emphasis is placed on the development of social-emotional needs, including being able to get along and cooperate with others, managing strong feelings, focused attention, and persisting at challenging tasks. We offer half and full-day programming that includes the following: • Affordable programming (in most cases, it is free, with the max being $1.50 per day) • Degreed teachers and amazing

Education Assistants in every classroom • Transportation (if over a onemile radius from the Center) • Breakfast and Lunch • Implementation of the Ohio

Early Learning Standards • Exposure to the Arts (visual, dance, drama, and music) • Mental Health Services • AND MORE! The early years are a critical time when brain development creates the foundation for future intellectual, emotional, social, and physical development. Like building a new house, establishing a strong foundation will determine the likelihood of success in the development, learning, and behaviors that follow. To register your child for preschool, feel free to contact our office at 330-5803033 to receive further information and learn how you can receive a registration packet. You may also email olbon_l@ccsdistrict.org to have one emailed to you (you will need to print out the packet to complete it). Our program fills up quickly and is based on first come. We look forward to hearing from you!
