As I’m sure most of you know by now, our Lady Sherman Tanks basketball team has crushed their way to the State Tournament and will take the floor this Thursday, March 12, at 1:00 PM at the Nutter Center at Wright State University.
An incredible accomplishment for these young ladies and our coaches, and something our entire school and community should be proud of. Interestingly enough, the game just happens to fall right in the middle of our school day.
Now, I realize this puts many of our students in a very difficult position. Missing a full day of school… assignments… activities… responsibilities. Tough choices all around. But the good news is your superintendent believes in you. You’re resilient just like our girls' team. I’m confident that, if only for one day, you can handle the disappointment.
As it turns out, because we didn’t miss as many snow days as some other schools this winter, we have a day or two to spare without needing to make them up in June. Consider it a mini life lesson: sometimes the discipline and decisions we make today create opportunities in the future.
Now, many of you already know that snow days aren’t exactly my favorite. I much prefer having our students here together at the U, learning and growing, rather than sitting at home scrolling on a device and working your way through a row of Oreos.
But this Thursday is different. This isn’t a “snow day.” It’s a “Lady Shermans Playing at State” day.
Instead of being in our classrooms, we have the opportunity to be in the stands supporting a group of student-athletes who have represented our school community with teamwork, humility, and selflessness every step of the way. Also, I wanted to announce as soon as possible to families, and I do apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. So, no school for students and staff on Thursday, March 12, 2026!
To our Lady Tanks: you have already made this community incredibly proud. When you walk into that arena Thursday afternoon, know that you won’t be walking in alone. Tank Nation is rolling with you!
Based on the turnout at our past games, I think it goes without saying that students, parents, staff, alumni, and community members will pack the Nutter Center and show the entire state what Tank Tough really looks like.
If you make the trip to Dayton, be sure to wear your purple and gold. Tank Nation will represent!
See you in Dayton!

Important dates to note for February!
Good afternoon everyone,
Let me clarify immediately: I have no temperature, I passed a mini wellness check this morning, and I am feeling perfectly healthy. The precautionary wellness check was prompted by the rare and unusual moment when I found myself considering canceling school for the rest of the week. Two days at a time twice in one week! Unheard of for sure, and I recognize the discomfort this will create for everyone, especially our students. So my apologies, but please no concerns for me. I am good, but still need to make the difficult decision to cancel school for Thursday and Friday of this week.
To our students: I understand this is upsetting news. You were undoubtedly excited about getting up early, sitting in class, and doing loads and loads of classwork and homework. I regret robbing you of that joy. Thank you for your flexibility and understanding, and please try not to enjoy your day off too much. We will be back in school before you know it!! Stay positive, and you will get through it. Go Tanks!!
Unioto closed tomorrow, Wednesday, January 28, 2026🥶🥶
Good morning!
Given the recent snow accumulation as well as the forecast, I plan to decide at 3 pm today on whether to cancel. Actually, I will cancel now—there is no school for Unioto on Monday, January 26, and Tuesday, January 27.
Yes, mark it down, I am calling 2 days off in one call. This is a first! Hopefully, the last!
Everyone, please enjoy this time with your family, be safe, and get at least one person with a good snowball they didn’t see coming!! Go Tanks!!
All-call for 4:00 pm today!

January is Board of Education Appreciation Month. We extend our sincere appreciation to Linda Miller, who previously served multiple terms on the Board of Education and was an exceptional and dedicated member of our leadership team. Her service and contributions have had a lasting impact on our district, and she will be deeply missed. We also express our gratitude to the members of the Board of Education for your continued commitment to our school district and for the generous investment of your time and energy in support of our students, staff, and community. Additionally, we are pleased to welcome our new board member, Eric Cox. Having previously served on the Board, Mr. Cox has already demonstrated his commitment by seamlessly resuming his leadership role. Thank you to all of our board members for your dedication and service. We sincerely appreciate all that you do for our school community. We would also like to extend a special thank you to Unioto graduate, Olivia Hardiman, owner of Sugar Me Sweet - Cookies and Confections, for the special Unioto treats!
As we learned from Damon West's coffee bean presentation last year, always strive to be a coffee bean! He utilized the metaphor of a coffee bean to explain how we can choose to respond to challenges and adversity in life. Just like a coffee bean transforms hot boiling water into something positive and valuable, we can transform difficult situations into opportunities for growth, change, and improvements. Instead of letting challenges negatively impact or defeat us, we can choose to remain positive, resilient, and focused on the good, influencing our environment and those around us. Being a coffee bean means taking control of our mindset and actions, and using our strength and positivity to create a better, more uplifting environment, no matter the circumstances. Go Be a Coffee Bean! Students reply to this email by January 22, 2026, with a brief summary of the concept of being a coffee bean, and have a chance to win a wonderful prize!
No School for students on Monday, January 19, 2026, in recognition of Martin Luther King Jr. Enjoy the extended weekend! 4 days til Tuesday! Go Tanks!!
