This content was from the end of the school year, but we thought it was awesome and wanted to share:
The Versailles High School Drone team competed in a two day competition at the North Central Aerial Drone Competition in Flint, Michigan this past weekend (May 18-19).
This particular competition fields teams from a ten-state region. Team 81834B, consisting of Jack Gerling and Cale Demange scored their highest individual skills score of the year and finished 16th overall. Team 81834T, made up of Patrick McGlinch, Luke Borchers, and Lance Keller, were able to qualify for the final tournament and finished 8th overall. Team 81834V, consisting of Alex Westgerdes, Cooper Keller, and Brady Rogers, had an awesome day and finished 3rd overall! Great job everyone!
Good morning Tigers this is Superintendent Dave Harmon with an important message for our families.
First, we hope you are all having a wonderful Summer break and that you are finding it restful, and rejuvenating. We are preparing for all of the students to return in the fall. One important task in having things ready to go is that we need all families to go into Final Forms and update your student(s) forms. Everything is color-coded. If it is red, it still needs to be addressed. Once you've updated and submitted each page, it will turn back to green. This is important for many reasons, but one is planning bus routes. Even if you do not use school transportation we ask that you update that screen as well. Please don't skip it thinking you don't use it so it doesn't apply to your family. We appreciate your help very much in getting those forms updated. Have a fantastic week. Go Tigers!
You can update your child's form at https://versailles-oh.finalforms.com/
Good evening parents,
This is Superintendent Dave Harmon with an important message about your child's achievement testing results. New this year is a requirement by the Ohio Department of Education and Workforce (what was formerly known as the Ohio Department of Education). All schools are now required to notify families of their child's achievement results from the just concluded school year, on or before June 30. We don't believe we will have the glossy, colorful score reports that you may be used to seeing back from the state in time to meet this requirement, however the students' achievement results have been uploaded to ProgressBook and you are able to get them there in the same way you log in to check your students grades and work completion over the course of the school year.
Scores are listed as "Placement level" of either 5, 4, 3, 2, or 1. These correspond to the old language that you are also likely used to from the past. Now everything is on a 1 through 5 scale. But you can correspond a 5 to being "Advanced;" 4 being "Accelerated;" 3 being "Proficient;" 2 being "Basic;" and 1 being "Limited."
You may already have a link saved that takes you right to the log in, but if not, go to the school website at www.versailles.k12.oh.us
then click the "Parents and Students" tab in the black bar near the top of the screen.
From there you can select the link to the ProgressBook log in.
From there, at the bottom of the screen will be the Versailles icon. Click that.
Next, click "Sign in."
From there you'll be brought to the ProgressBook login screen. Enter your username and password.
Once logged in, on the left side of the screen in the menu where all grade information is organized, at the bottom of that list is an "Assessment Scores" option. Click that and you will be brought to all of your child's Assessment scores that have been loaded into the system.
We hope this is helpful. Please let us know if you need assistance. Have a wonderful week and a beautiful summer with your friends and family!
Good evening Tigers, this is Superintendent Dave Harmon with an important message for planning purposes about the last day of school.
It is hard to believe that the last day of school is now only 2 weeks away. Pending Board approval at the upcoming May 21st Board meeting, we wanted to communicate to you for planning purposes, that the school district will let out 2 hours early on that last day - Friday, May 24, 2024. Normal dismissal is at 3:05. On Friday, May 24, 2024, we will dismiss for summer at 1:05 in the afternoon.
Thank you very much. Let's make these last two weeks magical!
Let's flood the interwebs with positivity!
Drop just a name, or a name and a story.
Thanks for making someone's day!

Good evening Tigers. This is Superintendent Dave Harmon with a reminder about tomorrow's schedule. Tomorrow, Friday, April 12, 2024, will be a 2-hour delay for staff professional development. Buses will arrive at your stops 2 hours later than your normal pick-up time. Thank you very much. Have a fantastic weekend.
Good evening,
This is just a reminder that school will not be in session on Monday, April 8th, 2024 - the Solar Eclipse day - due to anticipated travel and communication issues. Please be safe, have fun, and enjoy this once in a lifetime opportunity to observe this phenomenon - but do it safely. NEVER look directly at the sun without the protection of the special solar eclipse glasses.
The district bought Solar Eclipse glasses to provide to our students and staff and shortly after the shipment arrived, we were very graciously donated approximately 1500 eclipse viewing glasses from our wonderful community partner, Phelan Insurance. (Thank you Phelan!)
As such, the district has about 1400 eclipse glasses that we would love to get into your hands so that anyone you know can participate in this viewing event safely.
Please stop in at the Central office any day next week and pick up as many as you want for $1 each from Jodie Bohman! First come, first served. We are only hoping to make back what we spent on them. Please share so that anyone who wants them can get them.
Students have been designing and creating all year long. Check out this design, created by Lydia Bruns, for the football season. Videos like this can be found in the Yearbook by scanning QR codes. If you haven't reserved a 23-24 yearbook please do so soon, time is running out!

Team 81834T, Patrick McGlinch, Luke Borchers, and Lance Keller, was a mere 4 points from making it to the finals. This team also won the Skills Competition! Between piloting and programming their drones, they were able to post the highest individual score out of all the teams at the competition.
