It's hard to believe that we are nearing the end of the first quarter. We are excited about all of the great things already happening in our daily instruction, through our athletic program, and in the arts. The school spirit is clearly alive in the hallways following Homecoming events and pep rallies.

State Report Cards were released in September using the most recent star rating system. Three Rivers Local School District received impressive results.

During the summer of 2020, Three Rivers suffered a loss to the entire school community. At the age of 15, Nick Cordrey passed away. Nick was an amazing young man who showed strong characteristics in leadership, concern for others, work ethic, and athleticism on top of being a talented soccer player who had a love for politics.

Nick would be a senior this year so his family and friends wanted to provide something special to the community to maintain his legacy. During the September 24th Taylor Boys Soccer game, the District and Cordrey family dedicated the new Three Rivers Memorial Garden in Memory of Nicholas R. Cordrey.

Many of the Cordrey's family and friends attended the event where Superintendent, Dr. Mark Ault, and Nick's mother, Aimee Cordrey, spoke in remembrance of Nick. Additionally, the entire Ross Soccer team came over and respectfully gave their attention in support of the Cordrey family and Taylor Soccer Program. The Ross team extended their condolences by giving flowers to Mrs. Cordrey.

No school, family, or community can ever overcome the loss of a child. However, seeing not only the Three Rivers Community but also the Ross Soccer Team and coaches come together, reminds you how important a close-knit community is during difficult times.

The Ohio Department of Medicaid’s new Ohio Minds Matter website introduces screening tools, detection and prevention options, and guidance on when and how to seek help for a child. This online behavioral health resource can help families, teachers and health care professionals manage increasing childhood mental health needs. The site includes tools and guidance developed by a panel of clinical childhood behavioral health experts.

Effects of the COVID pandemic have been particularly hard on child mental health, resulting in significant increases in youth depression, anxiety, and suicidal ideation. These conditions, if left untreated, can harm a child’s ability to learn, grow and develop.

Ohio Minds Matter, a statewide collaborative sponsored by the Ohio Department of Medicaid through the Ohio Colleges of Medicine Government Resource Center, provides behavioral health tools and educational resources including:

• Treatment modules and screening tools for common behavioral health conditions;
• Guides for prescribing psychotropic medications;
• Prevention resources;
• A tool to help families make treatment decisions;
• Insights into OhioRISE, a new specialized behavioral health managed care program for children with complex, multisystem needs; and
• Information about how to get help.

On Friday, September 30th, one student from each grade in Three Rivers Elementary and Taylor Middle School got to slime Mr. Fred as a reward for the PTO Mumkin Sale.

Mitchell Strassel from the Hebron, KY Fire Department, Taylor HS class of '21, came back to Taylor High School in September. He climbed 110 flights (2200 steps) in Taylor's stadium in honor of the men and women who fought to save lives and the ones who paid the ultimate sacrifice on 9/11. Thank you, Mitchell, and all first responders.

If any high school student is interested in Young Life, there is a student-led group from Taylor.
