HIGHLIGHTS OF THE WYNFORD BOARD OF EDUCATION MEETING - Monday, August 10, 2026

🌱 Wynford FFA

🏆 Ohio Auditor of State Awards
Wynford was recognized with two awards from the Ohio Auditor of State: the Highest Achievement in Open and Transparent Government Award and the Ohio Auditor of State Award. These honors are the result of the competence and ability of Treasurer Leesa Smith and her staff, as well as the cooperation of all Wynford employees in following sound fiscal and management practices.
💰 Cost Savings
Treasurer Leesa Smith informed the Board that the district has cut costs by $753,353 since the close of the 2025–2026 school year.
📚 Library and Art
Superintendent Steve Mohr informed the Board that through creative scheduling and the restoration of the librarian position, students in grades 1–5 will now have both library and art.
📊 Future Levy Recommendation
Superintendent Steve Mohr recommended to the Board that if the income tax issue is passed in November, the district allow the Emergency 1.3-Mill Levy to lapse when it comes up for renewal in 2027.
📍 The 7th/8th Grade Football game scheduled for Tuesday, August 18, 2026, will now be played at Upper Sandusky High School rather than at Wynford.
