North Point Educational Service Center

Mrs. Giles Preschool class is learning how to code. While learning how to code children are using problem solving, math skills, control, and directional language. Students are using Kinderbot to code and learn early math concepts, colors, letters and more.  The kids are using problem solving skills as they figure out how to program paths for their robot. Young learners are also inspired to be big thinkers as they use engineering and building skills to try out different experiments with the robot and simple machine accessories.  They are practicing engineering and building skills just like a real engineer!

It's Fall!!! Time for a Leaf Lesson! Other preschool students in the area learned about leaves and why they change colors. They read a book about leaves and made observations about real leaves. The students sorted leaves by size and color and counted them. 

During October's Fire Prevention Week Harris Elmore Volunteer Fire Department Asst. Capt Berkel and Firefighter Rizzo visited North Point ESC's Graytown School.  Pictured below, Rizzo gives students from Mr. Goodman's and Mrs. Sandwisch's class a close up look at real life firefighting gear.

North Point Educational Service Center is proud to announce, in partnership with Ottawa County Sheriff's Office, we have placed a new deputy within our school which is located in Graytown, Ohio.

Deputy Chad Millner now serves North Point Educational Service Center with his new partner, Fin. Fin is a 5 month old Flat Coated Retriever who was rescued in Franklin County. He is currently in training to be certified as a therapy dog with his training being done by the Franklin County Sheriff's Office Therapy Dog Program. His training will continue until his final week of training in Franklin County during April, 2020. Fin was selected by deputies/trainers from the Franklin County Sheriff's Office Therapy Dog Program for his temperament and socialization. His adoption fees, vaccines, and neutering fees were all waived so that he could become part of the therapy dog program within the Ottawa County Sheriff's Office.

Fin will live with Deputy Millner and his family, who will see to his daily grooming and care.

When you see Deputy Millner and Fin, please join us in welcoming Fin to North Point ESC and our Ottawa County family.
