It is our goal is to get staff and students to school in a safe manner. We hope everyone will see the importance of this message. Please reduce your speed. Remember there is a 20mph speed limit on campus and be on the lookout for the most iconic staple of American Public School, the BIG YELLOW BUS!!!
Our Transportation Department runs 62 routes daily. Please afford each bus the right of way with a sure and clear distance. They are transporting our Tigers, and need to maneuver though our campus parking lots.
Everyone's help in this is greatly appreciated.
Did you know that Galion City Schools travelled over 220,000 miles last year. Galion Schools provided transportation for 338 athletic trips, 122 academic trips, and averaged 35 trips a month. Moreso, Galion Bus drivers are responsible for driving 62 bus routes daily with its 13 full-time drivers. All these miles are travelled on the 15 buses in its fleet.
Safety and security of our students and staff are always the top priority at Galion City Schools. On Friday, February 16th, The Special Response Team from Crawford County Sheriff's Department will be on our campus for a brief tour of our facilities. Do not be alarmed if you see several vehicles on our campus. They are touring all Crawford County schools to help familiarize themselves with each school. Have a great evening.

The yellow school bus is among the most recognized icons of American schools and society. Research demonstrates that the yellow school bus is the safest mode of transportation for some 25 million American school children each day. School bus drivers are provided rigorous training, preparation and testing to ensure the safety of our children. The women and men who manage and operate local school transportation systems are dedicated to the safety of all children. They also ensure efficiency and accountability in the delivery of each Galion student. Those that are involved with Galion Transportation range from building secretaries, bus drivers, bus aides, and bus maintenance. Galion City Schools recognizes the vital role that the yellow school bus plays in our education enterprise and in the life of our district. Galion City Schools declares the month of February 2024 to be LOVE THE BUS MONTH!!!
Principal Dick and Principal Sherer ran the building on Friday!
These two spent 100 of their hard earned tickets to help with the Tiger Ticket store, keep the halls clear of anyone wandering, and even snuck in some extra gym time ❤️
(I see administration being in the family business for the Dicks, too 😉)
Happy 1️⃣0️⃣0️⃣th day of school 🤍
Another month down, but another month up with lots to look forward to! Attached is not only our February Newsletter, but also our Academic Honors and Attendance list from the 2nd Quarter 👀

Mrs. Patterson and some helpers will be selling hot chocolate each morning (starting at 7:40) before school begins in the Fishbowl - stopping when we run out for the morning OR when the tardy bell rings, whichever comes first!
Each cup will be $1. All money raised will go right back into our PBIS Initiatives, such as our Tiger Ticket Store items!

Good morning Tigers,
Due to the roads are pretty icy right now so we will be on a 2hr delay. We will continue to monitor the conditions and update you if necessary. Be safe.
