Last week GLS was well represented at the Ohio Middle Level Association (OMLA) State Conference. Two proposals submitted this spring were accepted to present. Lauren Buell completed a solo presentation while Casey Wical, Liz Martin, and Vicki Packard-Cooper teamed up for another. The OMLA State Conference brought in over 600 educators from around the state to learn best practices from their peers. Way to represent GLS!

This week is National School Psychology Week, and we are so grateful for psychologists! ❤️

School psychologists play such an important role in supporting our students, staff, and families. Their care, guidance, and dedication make a difference every single day.

Please help us show them some love and say THANK YOU for all they do for our Falcon Family! 🖤❤️

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Statement from the Graham Local Board of Education


Regarding Proposed Electrical Transmission Lines At our most recent meeting, the Graham Local Board of Education formally voted to oppose the proposed electrical transmission lines impacting our district and surrounding communities.

The Graham Local Board of Education stands united with our community in opposition to these proposed transmission lines. As elected representatives, we have a responsibility to advocate for the best interests of our students, families, and the communities we serve. We share the concerns expressed by residents regarding the potential long-term impacts of these transmission lines on property values, agricultural land, and the rural character of our community.

Our district is rooted in a proud agricultural heritage, strong community relationships, and generations of families who have invested in making this area their home. The potential loss of productive farmland, concerns about declining property values, and permanent changes to our rural landscape deserve serious consideration

. As a Board of Education, we must also consider the potential long-term financial implications for our school district. Changes in property values and the local tax base could have lasting consequences for the financial stability of our schools and the resources available to support future generations of students. Protecting the long-term interests of our district and the taxpayers who support it remains a priority.

We recognize the importance of reliable energy infrastructure and responsible economic development. However, we believe progress must be balanced with the interests of the communities most directly affected. Decisions of this magnitude require transparency, meaningful community engagement, and careful consideration of the lasting impacts on local residents and future generations.

The Graham Local Board of Education stands with our residents in opposition to the proposed transmission lines and supports their efforts to protect the land, property, and community they call home.

Our commitment extends beyond the classroom. We have a responsibility to advocate for the future of our students and the community they will one day inherit.

Tonight, recent retiree Vicki Packard-Cooper was recognized with a Regional Award at the Ohio Middle Level Association State Conference. Ms. PC was nominated by a colleague at GMS this past spring. Her nomination read as follows: "She is an exceptional educational leader whose dedication to both students and staff consistently exceeds expectations. Vicki Packard-Cooper, or PC as we call her, goes above and beyond in her support of teachers, especially in English Language Arts. She regularly spends additional time in classrooms, collaborating with teachers, modeling instructional strategies, and providing meaningful feedback that strengthens instruction and improves student outcomes. Her presence is both encouraging and impactful, fostering growth and confidence among staff. Her commitment to students is equally remarkable. She invests significant time supporting students who are struggling to balance the demands of school and life outside of it. During study hall, intervention periods, and beyond the school day, she works with students to help them stay organized, complete their work, and build the life skills necessary for success. Her dedication ensures that students who might otherwise fall behind are given every opportunity to succeed. What truly distinguishes PC is her ability to combine compassion with high expectations. She has a genuine heart for students, particularly those facing challenges beyond their control, and she approaches each situation with empathy and understanding. At the same time, she holds all students to high standards in both behavior and academics, helping them grow not only as learners but as individuals. Ms. PC is a tireless advocate for students and a steadfast supporter of teachers. Her leadership, work ethic, and unwavering commitment make her an invaluable asset to our school community at Graham Middle School."
