Exciting news! The Rooms app has been updated this summer with some VERY long-awaited improvements. Most notable is the "My Notifications" feature that brings all your messages together in one place, tagged with the name of the course/team and child for which the message was sent. No more sifting through dozens of groups to find new communications. Is your child or family new to the district? Stay tuned for a Rooms invitation in early August!

We are back this summer with 3 local cross-country programs to collaborate for the “419 Running Youth Running Club”. Ashland, Crestview, and Mapleton will be working together to help spread a message that we (as runners) already know…Running is FUN!!! This year we will offer 1st through 6th graders the opportunity to learn and experience the sport of distance running by joining our Middle School and High School teams for an introductory experience. We will be meeting together with young runners during the summer at each of our locations. During all practices and race sessions, our coaches will be present and running with the kids to help them reach their goals while keeping them safe wherever they are. So many times we hear younger athletes say things like “I can’t run” or “Running isn’t fun!” We agree that many times running can be unpleasant or seem hard to do. When people train for other sports they run hard (when they are not used to doing it) and it really isn’t fun. Most athletes struggle to learn the pacing needed to run beyond ½ a mile when they first begin. We want to help elementary students have fun experiences with running that can lead to a true appreciation and enjoyment of the sport. Did I mention that we plan to have fun running?!?! We will also work on basic form, running, and dynamic stretching drills, and engage in light conditioning. This means this camp will help all runners for any sport! 419 Youth Running Club members will then be able to participate in fun runs at each host site’s invitationals, as well as get free entry into some great 5k/fun run events held locally. These events will be a great opportunity for our young runners to come together. Check the link for a listing of free events for our youth to participate in (subject to change so stay posted!) https://docs.google.com/document/d/1VeJQJEoQrhy83V4ZRh074V2xyoYlmwTnArlJJJJzds0/edit

Crestview Elementary Families, Our students have earned a 2nd quarter incentive for their hard work and positive behavior. On Friday, January 12th, our students will celebrate with Indoor Snow Day activities. Students are welcome to wear pajamas this day. We have a lot of fun activities planned including marshmallow building, hallway air hockey, art activities, and even an indoor snowball fight. We are asking families if they are willing to donate any items for activities. The supplies needed for this celebration are as follows: marshmallows (all sizes), toothpicks, and coffee filters (all sizes). If you are able to donate any of these items please have your student bring them to the main office. We appreciate all your support!

Crestview Elementary Families, Picture Day for students is scheduled for Tuesday, August 29. Students will be coming home with information that indicates that this is a Retake Day. This information is not correct, and it is our actual Picture Day. Picture Retake Day will be scheduled for a future date. Once we have this information we will share it with our families. Please contact the school if you have any questions.

Elementary Families, If your student has any medications that they will need at school during the day, please do not send the student with the medication to school. The parent/guardian must be the person that brings this to the school to give to our nurse. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact our school nurse at 419-895-1700, ext. 17701

Recycling Day is tomorrow from 9:30-12:30 (every 3rd Thursday)! Bring your recyclables to the high school. A portion of the proceeds from recycled materials is returned to Crestview!

IMPORTANT: The school zone lights on Route 96 will not be in operation to start the school year due to planned maintenance. Drivers must continue to observe the 20 MPH posted speed limit anytime students are present throughout the school day, particularly as buses are arriving and departing. Thank you for keeping our kids safe!
