We are excited for the return of our two school resource officers for the 2024-2025 school year!
We're excited to share our new electronic annual report calendar with you! Starting this school year, the calendar will no longer be shared in hardcopy form. Instead, we will be sending out a minimum of three printed newsletters per school year to keep you updated on the latest events and happenings in our schools.
Click here to view the 24-25 calendar: https://5il.co/2t22i
You can download the calendar and print it from home at your convenience. The best part of moving to an electronic format is that we can update the calendar throughout the year, ensuring it remains accurate and up-to-date for your quick access from the app or website.
We look forward to the start of a new school year!

Josh Cantrell, a Howland senior who began home instruction during the COVID-19 pandemic due to a health condition, was unable to participate in the district’s traditional graduation ceremony. Determined to create a memorable experience for him, Josh’s home instructor, Amy Blair, organized a special surprise. With the help of her husband, a member of the Howland Fire Department, and officers from the Howland Township Police Department, Amy arranged for Josh’s diploma to be delivered to his home.
"I wanted to do something special," Amy Blair said. "With his health condition, Josh won't get to experience a lot of the same milestones as his peers. I wanted to make this memorable for him. After he received the diploma, he said it was the best day of his life."
Congratulations, Josh! 🎉🚒👮♂️ #HowlandPride #Graduation2024

The Family, Career and Community Leaders of America (FCCLA) chapter at Howland High School wrapped up its cherished pen-pal program with first-grade students by meeting their pen pals in person! This year, FCCLA members exchanged letters with first graders from Mrs. Delaquila’s and Mrs. Hartman’s classes. Throughout the school year, each high school student corresponded with the same first grader, watching their writing skills and personal growth flourish. Not only does this program enhance the writing skills of the first graders, but it also provides a meaningful activity for FCCLA members. Since 2018, this initiative has fostered bonds between high school and elementary students. #FCCLA #PenPalProgram #HowlandHighSchool #StudentConnections
