Our District Leadership Team wrapped up their retreat in Hocking Hills. The group was able to hear from CR grad Nate Traucht about resilience as we continue focusing on putting our Portrait of a Hornet into practice. #HornetStrong

✅️ Bat houses ready to go! You may remember that our fifth grade classes researched and presented an idea to have bat houses on campus to Mr. Clark. CRHS student and Boy Scout Nate Gregorowicz joined the effort, working with the fifth graders to construct the houses last spring. They are now ready for residents! Small school. Big opportunities.

Our custodial crew hits a homerun every summer - thanks to all of them, including our student employees, for ensuring our facilities are ready to start the new school year! Their pride in Cory-Rawson SHINES through!!! #HornetStrong
