A BIG thank you goes out to our students, teachers, and parents! You have all helped us accomplish something we have never done before at Van Wert! We have checked out over 10,000 library books before Christmas break. Thank you for valuing books, the library, and literacy!

Dr. Bob from GYSTC worked his magic again with our 5th grade students. They experimented with electricity and circuits using snap circuit science kits. The students made simple and complex circuits to make lights light, play music, or rotate fans. #thriveatthehive #makeithappen
