Varsity Softball Coach Vacancy for the 2025-2026 school year.

Dear Parents, Guardians, and Students,
As you may have heard, Ohio has passed a new law requiring all public schools to prohibit student cell phone use during the instructional day. While schools across the state must put this policy in place by January 1, 2026, Ayersville High School will begin enforcing it on the first day of the 2025–26 school year on August 25th.
During the school day (including class time, passing periods, lunch, and any other supervised activities), students will not be permitted to use personal cell phones. This change is designed to reduce distractions, encourage face-to-face interaction, and help all students stay engaged in their learning.
Exceptions will be made for:
- Students with documented health-related needs that require phone access.
- Students in College Credit Plus (CCP) courses requiring two-factor authentication for login.
These exceptions will be granted individually and phones may only be used at appropriate times.
We know this is a shift, and we appreciate your partnership in helping students adjust. Please take a moment to review the attached “Be Present. Be Engaged. Be Phone Free.” graphic from the Ohio Department of Education & Workforce for more details about the statewide policy.
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at garrett.grime@ayersvillepilots.org or (419) 395-1111.
Sincerely,
Garrett Grime
Principal, Ayersville High School

Mr. Potts recently participated in the Research Experience for Teachers (RET) program, a collaborative initiative between Bowling Green State University and the National Science Foundation. This program is designed to deepen educators’ understanding of STEM fields — particularly in the area of advanced manufacturing — and bring that real-world knowledge back to the classroom.
Through his involvement, Mr. Potts is helping students connect classroom learning to the skills and technologies that drive today's workforce.
