From September 27-29, five first-year members of the Black River FFA Chapter attended Ohio FFA Greenhand Camp at Camp Muskingum in Carroll County!
Members had the chance to build leadership skills, set goals for the year, and make new friends from across Ohio. They participated in activities like Adventure Valley, leadership field games, and workshops led by the Ohio FFA State Officer Team.
During free time, students enjoyed kayaking, canoeing, fishing, archery, basketball, and of course, the group favorite—9-square!
We’re proud of our Greenhands for representing Black River FFA and can’t wait to see all they accomplish this year

Several of our Black River High School juniors and seniors had the opportunity to participate in a National Manufacturing Day field trip to Simonson Construction and Barbasol in Ashland.
Our students toured both facilities, learned about the work being done, and had the opportunity to talk with employees about what it takes to be prepared for the workforce, what the jobs look like, and the career opportunities and benefits available in these industries.
These experiences give our students a firsthand look at local career opportunities and help connect what they are learning in school to potential careers after graduation.
A special thank you to Grow Ashland and Ashland Area Economic Development for organizing this event and providing our students with this valuable opportunity to explore local careers and businesses. We also appreciate Simonson Construction and Barbasol for opening their doors and sharing their workplaces and career opportunities with our students.

Black River Local Schools will be partnering with surrounding fire districts and emergency response agencies on Saturday, August 15, 2026, to conduct a mock school bus crash drill at Black River Local Schools. This drill is being conducted to allow our school, fire, EMS, law enforcement, and other emergency personnel to practice and coordinate their response to a serious school bus incident.
Please do not be alarmed! During the drill, you may see multiple emergency vehicles traveling to and/or staged at Black River Local Schools, along with emergency personnel and equipment. There is no actual emergency taking place. This is a planned training exercise designed to help our community's first responders and school personnel be better prepared should a real emergency ever occur. We appreciate the community's understanding and support as we work together to keep our students, staff, and community safe.
Thank you to all of our local fire departments, EMS, law enforcement, and emergency responders for taking the time to participate in this important training. A special thank you to Spencer Fire Department for putting this important training exercise together and helping bring our local emergency agencies and school personnel together
