Check out the creativity of our fourth grade! In Mrs. Lusk’s art class, they have made replicas of some of their favorite food choices.
Their artwork looks so real, that you almost want to grab a bite as you walk by.
Great work!
Our high school FCCLA surprised the elementary by making Valentine’s Day boxes to help elementary students that may not have had a box for their class party.
Thank you to Ms. Hampton and our students in FCCLA! It was appreciated.
Students in Mrs. Eiring's 10th period science class have been studying the differences between plant and animal cells. Peytan Lemaster, Janee Johnson, Haylee Davey, Makenna May created a "replica" of an animal cell using a confetti cake as the dna in the cytoplasm. It was decorated with many candies to represent the parts of the animal cell. It was a delicious science activity!!
Congratulations to the Adena Elementary PAX Students of the Month for January! Keep up the great work!

Our elementary students have been working on their PAX behavior daily, but have one question for Mr. Jones. What is the reward for filling up the Big Blue Jug?
Students will find out tomorrow and parents will get more details in our next newsletter.
However, here is a clue that can calm the anxiety :).
Home to nearly 11,000 animals.
Road conditions have improved! Buses can now travel on Sulphur Lick and Shiloh Roads for this afternoon's drop-off and normal routes/times going forward. Thanks!
Adena Local Schools have been awarded $3,676 from the South Central Power Foundation to purchase a virtual reality system. A complete kit of hardware, licenses, and apps will support middle and high school educational content aligned to our curriculum. It will allow for virtual field trips and exploration into the human body, the oceans, and outer space. Students can experience careers first-hand and perform virtual labs or even car repairs. We appreciate South Central Power's ongoing support of our students.
Adena Schools will be open on regular schedule February 8th. Students on Shiloh and Sulphur Lick Roads please meet at the corner of Smalley Lane and Sulphur Lick at 7:05 a.m. for pickup. Roads have improved greatly but there is still the possibility of refreeze at night from melting. Roadways are narrow so students driving to school please use caution and reduced speeds. You will have to use great care on district roadways and the parking lot. They are still frozen over with the sleet/freezing rain/snow of last week. Parents, please be careful in the drop-off and pickup lines. Thank you!

Adena Schools are CLOSED Monday, February 7th. We fully anticipate being back in session on Tuesday. Roads made considerable progress today but one more day will be better for buses and kids. Drive carefully and stay safe.
Building remains closed today for more work on lots and roadways. We hope to have things cleared and in condition for traffic by this evening. A decision for school tomorrow will be made late this afternoon or early evening after we see how much roads improve today. Thanks for your patience. We are making progress.
We are starting to clear the lots and roadways at school today. The underlying layer of ice is very slick. Campus and the building will remain closed. All school activities are suspended today. Sunday should provide a day of melting. We will assess and update tomorrow afternoon or early evening. If venturing out today drive carefully and give road crews the room they need. Stay Warrior Strong!
Adena Middle School 8th tournament games scheduled for tomorrow morning will be play on Monday. Boys will be at Unioto at 5. The girls will be at home also starting at 5.
