Sunshine, pumpkins, and a giant corn maze! Our K-5 students had the best time exploring The Maize at Little Darby Creek!
This wonderful day out—complete with pumpkin picking and endless outdoor play—was made possible entirely by the generous support of our PTO! Experiential learning like this helps our students develop Adaptable Decision-Making and practice Empathetic Citizenship as they interact with peers across different grade levels.
What a wonderful way to enjoy the season! Thank you to everyone who made this possible.

October was a fantastic blend of academic rigor and fall fun at our school!
From the meticulous research and confident speeches at the Famous Ohioan Wax Museum to the scientific curiosity shown during our pumpkin experiments, our students were fully engaged. We also celebrated community with the PTO's Donuts with Grown-Ups event and wrapped up the month in style with our spectacular Costume Parade!

What a wonderful day celebrating our first group of Student of the Month honorees!
This month, we recognized students who exemplify what it means to be a Confident Communicator. These are the students who speak clearly and respectfully, share their ideas with conviction, and listen actively to others. They lead conversations and help foster a positive learning environment for everyone!
It was an honor to have them eat lunch with me (the Principal!) on the stage and receive their certificates and balloons. Every single student was beaming, and we are so proud to recognize their efforts and hard work.
Thank you for making our first celebration back a huge success!
Stay tuned to see who we celebrate next month!

What a bouncing good time we had at Field Day! Seeing all those smiles, especially in the bounce houses, was the perfect way to wrap up the year. A huge thank you to our amazing PTO for helping make all the fun possible!
To all our incredible parents: Thank you for sharing your wonderful kids with us this school year. It's been an honor to learn and grow with them. And to our students: You've made my first year as principal truly unforgettable. I'm forever grateful for this vibrant community.
Now, let's jump into summer! Enjoy every splash, run, and dance. See you next year!
My principal (momma) heart is absolutely bursting after our DWE Talent Show today! 💖 Watching our elementary students step onto that stage, so incredibly brave and ready to share their amazing talents, was truly something special. From singing and dancing to magic and comedy, every single act was fantastic. Thank you to all our talented students for inspiring us and making DWE the absolute best school! You filled our hearts today!
Tears and cheers at today's Senior & Kindergarten Clap Out! 🎓☔ Despite the rain, the spirit of our school shone bright as our seniors took their final walk through our U, guided by their adorable kindergarten partners. The cheers and claps from our students and community made this tradition unforgettable. It's moments like these that truly capture the heart of our school. Congratulations to both our graduating classes! ❤️ #BestSmallSchoolInOhio
