Today, our Anatomy students got hands-on with a fun Gingerbread Anatomy activity! Students practiced anatomical terminology by carefully following dissection instructions as they worked with gelatin gingerbread men.

Using specific cuts along the medial and transverse planes, students created highly visual cross-sections while putting their anatomy vocabulary into practice. Along the way, they explored terms such as superior, inferior, anterior, posterior, transverse, and frontal, among many others.

What a fun and creative way to bring anatomy concepts to life while putting classroom learning into practice! Great job, Polar Bears!

Good luck, Bears!🏐

Ohio recently updated their attendance laws to focus on supporting families and intervening early when attendance concerns arise.

What you should know:

ALL missed hours count towards Chronic absenteeism: Under the new regulations every minute a student misses school, regardless of whether the missed time is excused or unexcused contributes to their total chronic absenteeism total.

A student is considered chronically absent if they miss 10% or more of the total required school hours (100 hours) over the course of the school year. This equals 2-3 days missed, per month.

Unexcused hours count toward Habitual Truancy: Ohio House Bill 96, defines habitual truancy accumulating solely unexcused hours and totals remain the same:

30 consecutive hours, without a valid excuse (see student handbook)

42 hours within one month, without a valid excuse (see student handbook)

72 hours within one school year, without a valid excuse (see student handbook)

What to expect:

Early Communication: Schools are now required to notify families when a student reaches 5% of missed school hours (roughly 50 hours) for ANY reason. The goal is to support families and address any potential barriers including transportation or medical concerns.

While excuses still count towards Chronic Absenteeism, proper documentation protects your child from reaching a habitual truancy threshold.

Attendance is tracked in hours, arriving late or leaving early accumulated to missed hours.
