Staff Spotlight
Mr. DeGregorio, one of our most charismatic and involved teachers, makes sure to devote his energy for the best of his students. Mr. D. wants to make a strong connection with students, just as his inspiring high school teachers did for him. In efforts to do so, he uses his free time on Saturday to prepare students for the OGT's. He also mentors the young men's RITE group and coaches the flag football team. With many life experiences, such as being part of a band and being a graduate of Ohio State University, any student can seek him for guidance.

| Students Accepted by Senator Edna Brown | |
On April 23, 2013, with the lead of Mr. Murat, Horizon Science Academy Toledo Student Ambassadors Alec Hensley and Pearline Young got to meet Senator Edna Brown in the state capital. Senator Brown currently serves as the Assistant Minority Whip in the Senate. Senator Brown is First Vice President of the Ohio Legislative Black Caucus and serves on the Executive Committee of the National Black Caucus of State Legislators. She is state director for WILL/WAND, a non-partisan national organization for women legislators. The students received a tour of the statehouse while visiting the capital, as well.

| Mud Hens' First Basemen Reads to Students | |
Toledo Mud Hens' first baseman, Danny Dorn, made a celebrity Leader Reader appearance at Horizon Science Academy Toledo. He spent time in the kindergarten rooms reading favorites such as "Moosetache" and "The Boy who Wouldn't Share." After reading to the students, Mr. Dorn answered questions about his baseball career. The kindergartners were excited to receive an autographed Mud Hens team picture from their new favorite player! Our school was excited to host such an outstanding local sports figure

| HSAT Rocked the Test | |
OAA Spirit hit the hallways and classrooms of Horizon Science Academy Toledo. The students in grades 3-8 got ready to "Rock the Test" in many ways:
- Our kindergarten, first, and second grade classes wrote individualized, special letters of encouragement to each of the third through fifth grade students.
- As a show of solidarity to all of our testing students, the entire staff wore special "Keep Calm and Rock the OAA Test" t-shirts during testing days!
- Each day, students and staff participated in the daily drawing, winning prizes such as I-Pods, bikes, Jaguar Spirit-wear, golden coins, restaurant gift cards, and an iPad.
It was easy to see, by the testing environment, how hard the students have worked to get to this point of the year.
