Galion City Schools will be closed in Observance of Labor Day. Have a great weekend

🐯 September is Attendance Awareness Month! 🧡💙
At Galion City Schools, we know that every day counts and every Tiger matters. Being in school consistently gives students more opportunities to learn, build friendships, connect with their teachers, and keep moving toward their goals.
With our 4-day school week, Mondays can be a great day to schedule appointments, errands, haircuts, and other activities whenever possible—helping us protect Tuesday–Friday as learning days.

🚌💙🧡 A Little Patience Can Make a Big Difference 🧡💙🚌
We’d like to ask our community for a little extra patience and understanding when you find yourself stopped behind one of our school buses.
Some of our buses transport students with special needs, and while the bus may not be visibly loading or unloading a student, important things may still be happening inside. A student may need to be safely secured in a harness, the driver may be assisting a immediate need, or additional time may simply be necessary to ensure every child is safe and ready before the bus can continue.
Our preschool routes can also take a little extra time, as many of our youngest passengers need to be carefully and safely secured before the bus moves.
We understand that waiting at a red stop sign can sometimes feel inconvenient—especially when you're in a hurry. But those extra few minutes can make all the difference in ensuring that our students are safe and properly cared for. ❤️
Behind every bus is a driver doing their very best to safely transport precious children, and sometimes that means they need a little extra time.
Thank you, Galion community, for your patience, kindness, and understanding. A few extra minutes of waiting is a small act of grace that means so much to our students, families, and dedicated bus drivers. 🚌💙🧡
