Hello Parkwood Parents,
We are working diligently to prepare for the upcoming school year and getting excited to see everyone again!
Class placements will be posted in the vestibule on Wednesday, August 10 after 10am. Our staff has worked hard to appropriately place students into classrooms where their needs can be met. We also took into consideration parent information that we received. Therefore, we will not be switching classes at this point.
New Student Orientation will be held in the Parkwood gym on August 10th at 9:00 am. Teachers will not be here for the orientation, but new families will get important information and be able to tour the school. If you are unable to attend, the presentation is attached below.
We will be having our annual Back to School Bash on Thursday, August 11 from 4:00pm-6:00pm.
Students in grades 1-5, with the last names of A-L, will start school on August 15th (then off for August 16th) and students with the last names beginning with M-Z will start school on August 16th. This staggered start schedule will allow our staff to teach students routines and cleaning procedures. All kindergarten students will need to take the Kindergarten Readiness Assessment (required by the Ohio Department of Education) and have received a letter with a specific time and date to be individually assessed. Their staggered start day is also listed in the letter.
We have some new faces at Parkwood this year…
Ms. Lisa Sutton is our fifth grade science and social studies teacher
Ms. Amanda Isham has moved to second grade from first grade
Ms. Christa Reis is our IMC Technician
Ms. Carrie Shawver is our Special Education Supervisor
Ms. Kelly Jack is our morning Intervention Specialist
Please see below for important information and events happening this week and through the month of August. We are all putting the finishing touches on everything for the school year and getting ready for your children to come and have a great year!
Looking forward to seeing everyone very soon!
Sincerely,
Sue Bamford

Transportation to & from School for 2022-2023 School Year
Bus Transportation
We have a process for requesting school bus transportation for the 2022/2023 school year. All families must go to OneView (https://beavercreek.esvportal.com) and fill out the Transportation section for this year.
Even if you do not intend on using school transportation, we ask that you go into OneView and give us this information for each child. We will be building school bus routes based on the needs of each child.
If your child will need a bus for this year we want to make sure that your child is routed. School bus transportation will only be scheduled for those families who request this service, all students will not automatically be routed.
- If your student uses special transportation, or will be a preschool student, the process does not change (do not fill out this form).
- If your child is in a shared parenting scenario please keep in mind that shared parenting and daycare transportation services will only be provided within the school boundary of attendance.
- If your needs change before school starts, or in the middle of the school year, we can still make changes with advanced notification to the Transportation Office.
