📖 Mrs. McCormack's 3rd graders read the book, "Do You Love Snow Cones," and of course had to make the special treat. The students used a little snow cone machine, just like they do in the present day, to get the ice crushed and then added yummy flavors to their treat. While enjoying their snow cones they used the book as a resource to fill out the Now and Then worksheet. They all agreed that this was a great way to reward them and their hard work they've put in this year for their Reading group time.

South Central FFA had an incredible start at the 98th Ohio FFA State Convention.

Meet our new superintendent handout

South Central took a big step forward as we hosted our very first track meet at our new track and athletic complex.

This moment has been a long time coming, and it reflects the hard work, planning, and dedication of so many people behind the scenes. From the early ideas to the final touches, it truly took a team effort to bring this facility to life for our students and community.

We are proud to provide our athletes with a place they can call home, and even more proud to see it filled with competition, energy, and Trojan pride for the very first time.

Thank you to everyone who played a part in making this possible.
