Bosco cheese sticks will greet Ada students for lunch on Monday. The January school menu is now posted.
Just as a reminded it’s:
Kindergarten to third grade: Monday to Friday
A – L fourth grade through 12th grade Monday and Tuesday
M – Z fourth grade through 12th grade Thursday and Friday
Here's a reminder from Ada schools on how school will operate starting with the new year. This is part of a message posted on the school website on Dec. 18.
Ada students will to return on Monday, Jan. 4, on the same hybrid model we have been using for the last two weeks.
We plan to operate on that plan for two weeks. There is some concern that holiday gatherings could cause a surge in cases. This plan will allow us to continue to distance students from one another to minimize spread and large numbers of quarantines, should we have cases arise.
We should have an idea if there is a surge within about 10 days after the holidays (the last being New Year's).
How will you remember 2020? (Or, won’t want to remember 2020)
Let us count the ways:
• Covid-19
• Masks, or un-masked
• School year disruptions
• Cancellation of most community events
• Swimming pool opens!
• School in session, then remote, then back in session
• Presidential election
• Limited holiday travel
No matter how you will remember 2020, the Icon joins you in the hope that 2021 will be a better year.
Before we change calendars, the Icon offers 12 photographs from Ada’s 2020, one for each month.
2019 saw 406
Life Flights from
Bluffton + 19 ground transports
FROM BLUFFTON ICON - On Feb 1, 2021, Mercy Health will introduce a consolidated Life Flight Network to handle its air and ground transportation services.
The Bluffton Airport is home to one of the four Mercy Health Life Flight bases involved in the new network. Other bases include a mobile ICU base, plus air bases in Wauseon and Sandusky.
The Life Flight Network will combine and coordinate existing air services of Life Flight, which provides medical transportation services, including critical care transport, with ground medical transportation services provided by LACP and LifeStar.
Here's the fourth in a series of Ada-Bluffton Icon Christmas picture exchanges.
Each day until Dec. 31 on Ada Icon we'll post a holiday lights photo from our neighbor community of Bluffton. And, as a small inset, you'll see the photo from Ada that is posted on Bluffton Icon.
In this installment, the larger photo shows the holiday window art on Luke's, Main Street, Bluffton. The inset shows one of Ada's residential lawn displays, now posted on the Bluffton Icon.
