Wrapped up Day 2 of Sophomore Tours!
We can’t wait to see which programs our future Pioneers choose.
A huge thank you to building administrators for making time for students to visit, our SkillsUSA and FFA representatives for doing an outstanding job leading tours, and our amazing OVCTC staff for welcoming students and preparing for two full days of tours.
We will continue to offer tours and information for any student or family who would like to visit and get a first-hand look at why choosing to become a Pioneer is a game changer, and what makes OVCTC such a great place to learn and earn.

Not only are our Pioneers talented in their labs, but they also shine in the classroom!
Students in Mrs. Edmisten’s Language Arts class participated in the Young Writers USA creative writing contest, “Fright Night.” Each student had to craft a scary story in 100 words or less, putting their creativity, precision, and academic skills to the test.
We’re proud to announce that the students pictured were selected to be published in Fright Club – The Haunted Pages Anthology!

Their hard work and imagination continue to make the OVCTC proud. Way to go, Pioneers!

Earlier today, the Ohio Valley Career & Technical Center entered Secure Mode due to an incident occurring off campus. At no point were students or staff in danger; this was taken as a precaution to ensure the safety of everyone in our building.
Once we were informed by authorities that the situation had been resolved, we promptly returned to normal school operations.
We would like to extend our sincere thanks to local law enforcement for their timely communication and continued partnership in keeping our students and staff safe.

📣 New State Attendance Rules – What Families Need to Know
👨👩👧👦 Adams County Ohio Valley Schools
Ohio has updated how student attendance is tracked statewide with HB 96. Here’s what families need to know ⬇️
📊 What’s Changing?
Ohio now includes all absences (excused & unexcused) when identifying students who are chronically absent.
➡️ Chronic absenteeism = 10% of missed school days (about 2+ days per month)
➡️ Even excused absences count
🚨 Truancy Rules (Unexcused Absences Only – these laws remain the same)
⚠️ 30+ hours unexcused (consecutive)
⚠️ 42+ hours unexcused in one month
⚠️ 72+ hours unexcused in a year
📌 What Families Must Do
✔️ Call the school within 1 hour of the start of the school day
✔️ Send written documentation (note, email, doctor slip) when your child returns
❤️ Why This Matters
Missing school = missing:
✨ Learning
✨ Relationships
✨ Opportunities
STRIVE FOR 5 – EVERY DAY COUNTS

NAILE 2025 comes to a close for
The Ohio Valley Ag Business class. We did have a student, Josie Walters, get penned in the top ten today and earned a premium! The students were great and we appreciate our bus driver, Lee Ann Short, chaperone - Jenny Stoneking, the families who provide food for everyone - Watters, Evans, Yates, and Martin families, Cherry Fork Farm supply - Tisha Wolfer, and Ball Farms for everything you all have supported us with. Thank you again to the community for checking in and rooting for these students who are experiencing learning with first- hand real-life application. So long Louisville! Next stop: National Farm Machinery Show and tractor pulls!
