Portrait of a Bee

 
In Winter of 2021, a committee of over 80 parents, students, and staff came together to decide which skills or competencies were important for our students to master during their time here in the Medina City Schools.  This product became our Portrait of a Bee, our "North Star."  These competencies will guide our work to help students truly be prepared for their world after they graduate from Medina City Schools.
