Cambridge Schools Partner with MVHC
CAMBRIDGE, Ohio – One of the psychology theories that all educators study in college is Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs. Simply stated for an educational setting, Maslow’s theory means that students need to have their basic physiological needs like food, water, and sleep, met before they can achieve their full potential in the classroom.
“All educators will tell you that you can’t get to academic achievement if a student’s basic needs are not being fulfilled,” Superintendent Dan Coffman said.
For example, if a person is extremely hungry, it is hard to focus on anything else besides food.

Bus Drivers: The Unsung Heroes of the Cambridge Schools
The unsung heroes of any school district are the bus drivers and that is true for Cambridge Schools, too.
They rise early to make sure the buses are ready for the routes. They are the first and last representative of the school your child sees each day. They are the only district employees who spend the majority of the time with their backs to the students, yet still maintain discipline. And they are responsible for the safety of your children in conditions they have extraordinarily little control over.
“It absolutely takes a special person to be a bus driver,” Transportation Director Dan Daugherty said. “When I first started driving, I had no idea what I was getting into. When you get behind the wheel and look up in the mirror and see all those kids, it’s like ‘Holy Cow, what was I thinking.’
Licensed social worker joins city school district
Contributed to The Daily Jeffersonian
We all know that financial resources for school districts continue to come up short of meeting the needs of students. One way Cambridge Schools makes up for a lack of funding is by pursuing mutually beneficial partnerships with other local entities.
Recently, the school district partnered with Allwell Behavioral Health Services to provide additional counselling and support to the students in the district. While the school district has cooperated with mental health agencies in the past, through this partnership, Allwell will provide a full time licensed social worker dedicated exclusively to the Cambridge City School District.
