Hey Lancer Land, not an emergency, just a reminder that Monday, Feb. 16 will be our first make up day and will also be a two-hour early dismissal for staff professional development. So Monday, Feb. 16 is a student attendance day with a two hour early dismissal. Hope you have a nice weekend.
Amesville Elementary School hosted its 10th annual Empty Bowls Fundraising Event on Tuesday, 2/10. Families enjoyed the beautiful pottery that their children made and they had delicious food made by our cafeteria staff! We are grateful to all the families and community members who attended.
Special thanks to Miss Connie and Miss Amanda, our Amesville Cafeteria Staff, who cooked all the food, and to the artists who donated bowls for our silent auction. We also want to thank the teachers, PTO members and OU students who volunteered to help during the event!
All the proceeds benefit Amesville's branch of the Athens County Food Pantry.

Our second-grade students had a wonderful opportunity to spread kindness beyond our school walls yesterday during a special visit to Arcadia Nursing Home!
They delivered Valentine messages created by students from across our entire school, personally handing them out to residents and hanging many more throughout the building. To make the visit even more special, our second graders shared a few cheerful songs to help brighten everyone’s day.
It was a very special experience for all, and many of our students shared how excited and proud they felt to bring smiles to others. We are so proud of our second graders for representing our school and showing the power of kindness in our community! ❤️

Come one, come all, because it is really going to happen. Make dinner easy on this busy Friday night, while supporting a great cause.

So if you are seeking an early dinner or want a hearty, healthy meal before the game, please come. Tickets will be avaiable at the door.

Please mark your calendars for the SOUPER BOWL, Lancer Land. Yes, the Third time will be a charm. There is a triple header that evening because in addition to the Boys' BB game after the event, a saxophone ensemble with Raen Ridgway, Rilo Wilkes, Collin McPherson, Athena Brumfield, Jarron Johnson and Adam Gilchrist will entertain guests as they enjoy chilis, soups, desserts and drinks. All for $10 while supporting the 9th grade class. See you there! Friday, Feb 13th 4:00-6:00 p.m. in the middle school commons.
Good evening Lancer Land, no poem tonight because we are going to school on a regular schedule tomorrow. But I did want you to know we will be again running Bus Plan A.
Also, we are scheduling make up days and our first make up day will be on Monday, Feb. 16th. This day was scheduled as a professional development day for staff, instead it will be a student attendance day with a two hour early dismissal for staff professional development.
Additional make up days will be scheduled later this month once we see what Mother Nature continues to send our way.

Just a reminder that for Monday, Feb. 2, Federal Hocking Schools are on a two hour delay and will be running bus plan A. See you tomorrow.
Good afternoon Lancer Land.
Today's poem is based on the classic "Casey at the Bat" by Ernest Thayer...my apologies to the author
Lancers in the Snow
The outlook wasn't brilliant for the Lancers on that day
As thermometers showed termperatures that from freezing had not strayed
Deep into the night the cold air blew, the weather was not nice
Everyone knew that the daylight would bring back roads covered in ice
Oh somewhere in this favored land the sun is shining bright
The band is playing somewhere, and somewhere hearts are light
And somewhere buses are running, and classrooms are all aglow
But there is not joy in Lancer Land as school is still closed for snow
Yes, Federal Hocking Schools will be closed on Friday, January 30th. However, at this time we do intend to open on Monday, Feb. 2 with a two hour delay and bus plan A. So, closed tomorrow, opening on Monday. Stay warm!

Hey there Lancer Land, here is today's poem, a limerick this time
My poetry is not all that bad
But when the phone rings parents are sad
Yet the children all say
Let's sleep in then go play
Because another snow day is to be had
There you go, for Thursday, January 29th, Federal Hocking Schools will be closed. We are doing what we can but the back roads are still covered with snow and the deep freeze every night just ices them over. As stated earlier this week, we will be adding make up days. We will keep you informed.

Hey Lancer Land, its the doctor with today's poem...
First there was snow and then there was sleet
Making it hard to stay on your feet
But our custodians they were up to the task
Clearing sidewalks and lots so that we could pass
But alas the element they have conspired
The back roads still won't hold on to your tires
And that is why I am calling to say
Tomorrow will be another snow day
That's correct, for tomorrow, Wednesday, January 28th Federal Hocking Schools will be closed.

Hey Lancer Land, I'm sure you're not surprised
To hear my voice with a poem I've comprised
As we all expected, having been detected
The snow is coming down and covering the groud
Now the temperture is dropping, causing snow melt stopping,
Making all the roads a mess, despite crews trying thier best
So there's no need to delay, in having to say
Federal Hocking schools are closed for the next two days
For Monday, January 26th and Tuesday, January 27th, Federal Hocking Schools will be closed. We wanted to give families plenty of time to plan for this closure. Also, as this takes us beyond five days of closures, we will be adding days to the school calendar for make up. Once we have returned to school, we will let you know when the make up days will be scheduled.
