New Knoxville Local School

Another busy week for the Rangers! A lot going on this week! See the schedule below!

🔬 Biology students put their technological design skills to the test! Students were given a $40,000 budget, a teacher-created store of materials, and both a time and design constraint. Their challenge? Build a 50 cm tall water tower capable of holding 10,000 gallons—the equivalent of 100 pennies! 💧🪙 What sounded simple proved to be much tougher than expected! Students worked together to problem-solve, make adjustments, and learn that science and technology often come with real-world constraints. They had a lot of fun putting their designs to the test! 👏🔬

🍃LEAF🍂 it up to 3rd grade to have fun in art!

4B learned how to shuffle cards and practice card etiquette while playing "Break the Bank at 27"!

Spirit Day tomorrow! Go Rangers!

Yearbooks are still available for the 2026 school year

The HS soccer game scheduled for tonight vs LCC has been rescheduled for Monday, Sept. 21 at 5:30 at NK.

New Knoxville Local School is seeking substitute bus drivers. Please see the attached flyer for more information.

Sophomores and Juniors from New Knoxville attended the Mission Discovery career fair at the Auglaize County Fairgrounds today. They were able to get hands-on training in career fields they could end up in the Auglaize County Area. Thank you to St. Mary's DECA for the amazing fair

⭐️First grade is collecting Villa Nova pizza stars to earn pizza parties in our classrooms. If your child's teacher is not collecting them, we will gladly take them. ⭐️

Upcoming Spirit Days! This Thursday is Beach Day!

New Knoxville School is pleased to announce it has received a $1,201 STEM grant from the Toshiba America Foundation (TAF). These funds will support the Anatomy & Physiology, Chemistry, and Physics classes at New Knoxville High School. The “Bionic Innovations” project is an outstanding example of Mrs. Natalie Stuttler’s passion for science education and her commitment to creating innovative and meaningful learning experiences for students. Through this project, Mrs. Stuttler is creating a truly interdisciplinary experience that mirrors the collaboration found in today’s biomedical and engineering fields. The opportunity for students to design, 3D-print, and test robotic prosthetic hands using muscle sensors will provide hands-on learning experiences that are both rigorous and highly engaging. Students will be able to apply concepts from science, technology, engineering, and mathematics while developing problem-solving, creativity, collaboration, and critical-thinking skills. This innovative project would not be possible without the generous support of Toshiba and their commitment to supporting STEM education. We are incredibly grateful for this grant and the opportunities it will provide our students to explore real-world applications of science and engineering in an exciting and meaningful way. Toshiba America Foundation’s grants fund projects designed by individual classroom teachers. This “direct-to-teacher” approach brings immediate results. Teachers are able to change the way they teach Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) subjects because the grant supports equipment for hands-on experiments and inquiry-based approaches to the curriculum. At TAF, we believe that STEM is a lot more fun than just reading a textbook. TAF grants provide teachers with the tools they need to be more effective educators. The grants make the classroom a more exciting place for both teachers and students. For more information, please visit: www.toshiba.com/taf.

Mrs. Phillips class enjoyed learning all about our classmates with our "Owl About me Bags"!

Mrs. Phillips: -more all about me bags -show-and-tell and live show-and-tell -our first teacher of the year

Happy Monday! It's a great week to be a Ranger! Check out the weekly update below for all the happenings at NK!

A little Social Studies bag game to help the 4th graders review for our Continents and Oceans and Ohio quiz. Thanks @mr_alsheimer for the fun idea!

🧪 Mrs. Stuttler’s Physics seniors are hard at work refreshing their graphing skills! In this experiment, students are investigating the relationship between mass and the time it takes a pendulum to return to its starting point. After collecting and graphing their data in Desmos, they’ll use their results to complete their lab write-up in their lab journals. 📈⚖️⏱️ Science, data, and a little hands-on physics! 🔬📊

Third grade is getting creative with nature! 🍂 They’re learning how to transfer real leaves onto paper for a fun fall art project. 🎨

Out and about checking out the New Knoxville Community Garage Sales this Saturday? Make a sweet stop while you’re bargain hunting!
