💛💜Ada Schools had an exciting visit today from Ohio Lt. Governor Jim Tressel as part of the Team Tressel Fitness Challenge! 💪
Lt. Governor Tressel brought incredible energy and motivation to our 4th–8th graders, encouraging them to reach their goals. The challenge helps students build lifelong habits around fitness, healthy eating, and sleep and lays the foundation for a brighter future by improving students physical and mental health.
We’re grateful for his inspiring message and for Team Tressel Fitness Challenge visiting Ada Schools to support our students in living healthy, balanced lives.

💪📚 Big Bulldogs Meet Little Bulldogs! 🐾
Our High School Strength Training classes spent time with Ada Preschool students last week — teaming up to lead a fun and active lesson!
The high schoolers did an amazing job teaching our preschoolers some great habits. It was a great opportunity for our older students to serve as positive role models while connecting with our youngest Bulldogs! 💜
We love seeing our students learning with and from one another.

Honoring Our Veterans at Ada Schools❤️🤍💙
This morning, Ada Schools was honored to continue our beautiful Veterans Day tradition of hosting a breakfast to recognize and thank those who have served our country. Over 50 veterans and guests joined us for this special event.
The program featured guest speaker Dave Lusk, a moving performance of Taps by Justin Bowden, and heartfelt thank-you cards created by our 6th–8th grade students. The cafeteria was beautifully decorated with patriotic artwork from Mrs. Winklejohn’s art classes, adding a meaningful touch to the celebration.
We are deeply grateful to all the veterans who joined us and to the staff and volunteers who helped make this event possible. It was truly a special way to honor the bravest and truest of Americans.

If you missed this one, there’s another chance to help! The Red Cross will host a community blood drive at Ada Visiting Nurses on Monday, November 17th from 11 a.m. – 5 p.m.
💪 Bulldog buddies supported each other all day — it was truly a great and meaningful event!
