Federal Hocking Community. Welcome to 2025. I am attaching the superintendent newsletter. My goal is to increase our community's knowledge regarding issues we face now and in the future. I do this to improve communication, awareness, and transparency. Knowledge is power. Together, we can solve any problem when we understand the facts and solve the issues as a community.

Happy Holidays from all of us at Coolville Elementary!
Amesville counselor, Miss Jamie, helped our third graders show some love to some very deserving pups at the Athens County Dog Shelter. Students made posters for some of the dogs that have been at the shelter the longest. If you are thinking of adopting you can see all of the posters and the dogs at the shelter.
The Amesville Running Club was greeted by a special guest Thursday morning! The Grinch helped us reach a total of 5,916 miles so far this year! Only 6, 084 to go! Log those miles at home over break, Runners!
Come celebrate with us!
