Our new year. Their new next.

I remember my oldest daughter’s first day of kindergarten like it was yesterday. Now, twenty-three years later, she has her own first child. And in five short years, when he starts his first day of kindergarten at Ossian Elementary, he will be the sixth generation of his family to attend our schools. We work every day preparing for students we already know are coming and for those whose families are still looking for us. We want you to be part of that preparing, too, so below are a few ways you can get involved.
