The Galion Intermediate School needs your help in participating in a fun community service project. Students are bringing in unopened boxes of cereal to donate to our local food pantry, Ohio Heartland Community Action. As a fun bonus, we will set up the boxes like dominoes through the halls of the building as a school-wide Cereal Box Domino Challenge before donating them. The student who brings in the most boxes in each grade level will be the one to start the chain reaction.
How You Can Help:
Donate unopened cereal boxes – Any brand or size is welcome! We are asking all students to donate at least ONE box. You can either send it in with your student or drop it off in the Intermediate office any day between now and Thursday, March 13th.
Reminder that this Friday, March 7, ends the third grading period, and it will be a 2-hour early dismissal. Let’s finish strong, Tigers!
Galion Primary School is now registering students for Kindergarten for the 2025-26 school year.. Call the school office at 419-468-4010 to schedule screening appointments. Children must be 5 years old by August 1, 2025, to be eligible for enrollment.
This week, we celebrate and share our appreciation for our school social worker, Kirstie Naumoff. Ms. Naumoff has been a great resource for our elementary school students and their families. She continues to demonstrate kindness and compassion with a smile every day. We are grateful for all she does at Galion City Schools.
The Tiger trait for March is Balanced. Our hope and goal for balance Tigers is that they make a conscious effort to prioritize and create equilibrium in personal, academic, and emotional demands. These efforts guide them to make healthy choices when dividing their time between academic responsibilities, friends, and family.
Maintaining balance through their ability to organize and self-regulate in daily life develops skills to confront feelings of overwhelmedness and stress as adults.
Our team of bus drivers thank you for doing your part in keeping us all safe while we transport our students to and from school. Complying with the RED STOP sign during loading and unloading, giving us room to make wide turns, and watching your speed around bus stops are all ways you can help us be safe. We appreciate your willingness to follow these guidelines.
As we wind down our Love the Bus Month of February, here are some kind words from some of our littlest Tigers! https://bit.ly/buslove25
Galion City Schools are now closed for today, Thursday, February 20. Be safe out there, Tigers!

Our winter wellness fair is underway. Come join us at the Middle School until 6:00. We have great swag for you!
The Galion City School District will host parent/teacher conferences in each building on Wednesday, Feb. 19th. Don't forget to stop in the Middle School to check out the Winter Wellness Resource Fair from 4:00-6:00. There will be fun, food, information, and prizes! We can't wait to see you there!
As a friendly reminder please, regardless of HCTB, have your student at their designated place of safety 5 minutes prior to your scheduled time. As many may know, buses require a great deal of maintenance and it might not be your actual bus that picks up or drops off being displayed on the app. With that in mind, having your student ready will only allow us to pick up or drop off in a timely manner.
The Galion City School District has announced open positions for the 2025-26 school year. See all job postings at galionschools.org/employment and learn more about us at https://bit.ly/gcsspotlight. Apply now and join our fantastic team!
