We provide the iPad. You focus on their future. Graphic with a female student holding an iPad. The graphic advertises that Wood County Schools does not charge students for devices used in class.
Due to storms coming again and potential flooding I'm going to cancel tonight's cheer practice. We will move it to Wednesday and still have Thursday's!

Our MOVTA Tennis Fundraiser was a success.  MOVTA supports Summer Rec Tennis Programs, Adult Social Leagues, Wood County Schools, and other projects, too.  Our Hamilton tennis players who volunteered that evening were Ethan Shields, Darien Hawkins, Carson Clegg, Hannah Skogstad, Clare Sutton, and Sophia Pinkerton.  I am very proud of them.
