Good Morning, Raiders! Today is Thursday, November 21st
 
Christmas is just around the corner, which means it’s time to start being generous! Student council will be collecting toys for Christmas for Kids. This is a great opportunity to spread joy to kids in the community! There are several teachers who have graciously agreed to give bonus points to those who bring in toys. Check out the Raider Insider bulletin board to see which teachers are offering this! Bring your NEW, UNUSED toys to Miss Claudia Sinn by December 10th and receive your bonus points before exams!!
 
Senior girls interested in becoming the representative for the Peony Pageant, please see Mrs. Franz.  Applications are due by Nov. 25th.
 
The University of Toledo representative will be here on Friday the 22nd at 12:05.  If you would like to meet with her, please sign up in the guidance office at least one day before the meeting.

Paulding County History Museum

Congratulations go out to Aiden Lee who won the People's Choice Tree in the Youth Division at the Paulding County History Museum Festival of Trees.

Wayne Trace High School's maintenance director Bob Thomas recently approached the school's STEAM center with a challenge:  could they create a downspout to replace a broken ceramic one that is no longer made?  Bob was quickly introduced to Luke Stouffer, a senior student in Mr. Ed Stuart's Engineering Design course.  In less than a day, Luke had measured, calculated, and designed a replacement downspout using Fusion 360, a computer-aided design program that he just learned this fall.  The design was printed using one of the school's 3D printers, and in less than 48 hours, the problem was solved!  We are ready for your next challenge, Bob!

CHRISTMAS SHOPPING MADE EASY

gift card
Let us help you do your Christmas shopping this year! The Wayne Trace Performing Arts will be offering gift cards again. How it works is simple – you purchase gift cards from us like you would in a store for face value. The percent column on the paper is the amount that we will get back from RaiseRight for ordering cards through them in bulk. Please consider this as you plan your shopping or purchasing cards for those on your Christmas list. We have three convenient order days for you to choose from:
Order by Wed, Nov. 20th for pickup on Tues, Nov. 26th
Order by Thurs, Dec. 5th for pickup on Tues, Dec. 10th
Order by Thurs, Dec. 12th for pickup on Tues, Dec. 17th

Orders and money must be received by 10AM of the order day for your order to be sent in on time.

*Alternative ordering: You can order and pay online and your order will be included with the physical orders. You must get your order in THE DAY BEFORE the above order date to have your order included! All you have to do is create an account. When you create an account, do not put that you are earning money for a specific student or group, as the enrollment code should pop up with the Wayne Trace Performing Arts already listed.

Please call the music department at 419-622-5171 ext 271 or email Mrs. Wenninger at [email protected], and make arrangements for card pick up or for questions on how to do online ordering. Thanks for supporting us while you shop!

Food Distribution

Food
Wayne Trace will be hosting a monthly food distribution for our families who have children in grades 7-12.  You will be able to come to the high school and receive some supplemental groceries for the month.  We are working with the West Ohio Food Bank, so we will be limited to what they have available for the month.  We received a grant this year from Honda, so we should be able to have a nice supply of food available.
 
Distribution will be held from 3pm to 5:30pm or until we are out of food.   Students who drive are able to pick up food.  Students who ride the bus will not have time to pick up food.  Students do not need to be present when families pick up food.   The only information we will ask for is the name of one 7-12 student in the household and a tally of the number of people in the house. Food is available for all members of the household. No names are given to West Ohio Food Bank.
 
Our distribution will be in the Ag shop, which is located on the south side of the building near the softball field.  Pick up is from 3pm-5:30pm.  There is NO financial requirement.  This is open to any family with a student in grades 7-12 who would like some supplemental groceries.
 
Typically, we will have this on the third Wednesday of the month, but we did have to change it for March and May.  Distribution dates:
 
December 18th
January 15th
February 19th 
March 12th
April 16th
May 14th
No distributions in June, July or August.
 
If you have any questions, please contact Sarah Franz at [email protected]
 
Thank you!

Congratulations go out to several Wayne Trace student artists whose work will be on exhibit around the region starting this weekend!  Senior Luke Stouffer has a sculpture in the Purdue Fort Wayne High School Art Show, and senior Aiden Lee has a printmaking collage on display at COSI in Columbus as part of their T-Rex: The Ultimate Predator exhibit now through March.

Two other Raiders will also have their work on display in Columbus at the 6th Annual Otterbein University High School Art Show which opens later this month. Senior Trista Evans will feature a fiber arts work while junior Hunter Lyons is exhibiting a dizzying drawing in this juried show.

Congrats to Luke, Aiden, Trista, and Hunter on their artistic accomplishments!

Principal Letter

Dear parent/guardian of Wayne Trace Students,

The first nine weeks concluded on October 11th for the 2024-2025 school year. Overall, the students have worked hard to keep up with the expectations of our teaching staff. Grade reports were mailed on October 18th to parents/guardians of our students at Wayne Trace Junior/Senior High School.

Parent-teacher conferences are set up for Wednesday, October 23, from 5:30–8:30 p.m. and Thursday, October 24, from 1:00-4:30 pm and 5:30-8:00 p.m. We encourage parents to set up appointments with teachers if there are concerns after receiving the grade reports. Contact our office staff and we will try to schedule appointments where teachers may still have openings. Also, parents may call or email teachers directly if questions arise throughout the year. An important factor for student success is having parents who are involved and care about their child’s education.

On Wednesday, November 6, the eighth grade students will tour Vantage Career Center. While students do not make the decision to attend Vantage until their sophomore year, this tour motivates students to begin thinking about future career options. 

The annual Veteran’s Day program will be held on Monday, November 11 at 8:05 a.m. in the high school gymnasium. The public is invited to attend this inspiring assembly.

Another special program that will take place in November is the National Honor Society induction ceremony on Friday, November 1 at 1:55 p.m. Junior and senior students who meet the criteria in scholarship, character, service, and leadership will be honored.

As always, I want to thank the community for its outstanding support of all the activities involving our students at Wayne Trace Jr./Sr. High School. Go Raiders!

Warm regards,
Mike Myers

Veteran Banners

Banners created by our Art Technology classes honoring veterans from our Wayne Trace community are now being hung for display in Grover Hill, Payne, Latty, Haviland, and Scott.  If you missed out on the opportunity to honor your veteran with a banner this year, orders for next year will be accepted starting on Veterans Day in November and continuing through February 15.  Thank you!
