As summer approaches, our elementary students have been diving into something important — Water Safety! During the last few days of school, students have been learning how to stay safe around pools, beaches, waterparks and boats. With drowning being the second leading cause of accidental death for children ages 5–14 (CDC), these lessons could save a life. Drowning is silent and can happen in just 20–60 seconds — awareness is key!

On Friday, the Mathews Local School District came together in a powerful show of support for our elementary secretary, Julie Sethman. Staff in both schools surprised her by wearing purple shirts—a symbol of strength, hope and unity—as she courageously battles cancer. Julie, your Mathews family is behind you every step of the way! #TeamJulie #PurpleForJulie #SupportAndStrength #NoOneFightsAlone #YouveGotThisJulie #MathewsStrong

Over the past three weeks, first grade students in Mrs. Hilty’s class have learned about informational writing and the publishing process. They worked together to brainstorm topics, research rainforest animals, write and illustrate drafts, revise and edit their work, and create a final copy! To celebrate all their hard work, the class held a Published Authors Popcorn Party! 🍿 #MathewsPride #YoungAuthors #RainforestWriting

Our 5th grade students had a great field trip to the Cleveland Museum of Natural History. While the original plan was to see Balto—the famous sled dog with local ties—our students were also able to get hands-on lesson about Ohio's Indigenous Cultures! Led by museum instructor Mr. Aivery, students looked at artifacts from four periods of human history, covering more than 14,000 years before Europeans arrived!
