Ada Schools now part of Tip Line

Posted by Monty Siekerman on Thursday, September 13, 2018

The Ada Exempted Village Schools has registered with the Safer Schools Ohio Tip Line. 

Research shows that most threats to schools have clues that are missed or ignored.  Students and parents have more access to social media of students than schools do. 

The Safer Schools Ohio Tip Line is manned by Homeland Security and Law Enforcement professionals trained to quickly assess a threat and to contact and work with school administrators and local law enforcement/county Sheriff/School Resource Officers.  

The tip line can be used to report anything suspicious or endangering to students, their friends, or their school.

Can you guess the decade when poodle skirts were popular with teenage girls?

These elementary teachers, who may be a little past their teen years, sport poodle skirts for Decades Day at the Ada Schools on Wednesday as part of Homecoming Spirit Week.

The one-color, easy-to-sew skirts were popular in the 1950. Models are (from left) Melissa Gossard, Rachel Ludwig, and Heather Etgen.
