Bogan’s Prairie
You may notice the area to the south of the drive as you come into Bogan. This area is our new Bogan Prairie. With the help of Johnson Family Farms, Pheasants Forever and the Talawanda Sustainability Team, we’ve created this area for students to explore, observe and learn in. Keep your eyes on the variety of plants and hopefully the birds that we’ll be sharing our space with! We are so grateful to have such beautiful outdoor spaces here at Bogan!

TSD Lunch Program
For the past two school years, the USDA has offered waivers to food service programs across the US allowing us to offer all students a breakfast and lunch at no charge. Unfortunately, these waivers expired June 30, 2022. This means that families will be asked to complete and submit a Meal Benefits Application for the 2022-23 school year. With the waivers, breakfast and lunch were free. This year if students do not qualify for free/reduced lunch, they must pay. The prices are listed below:
Student Meal Pricing
Breakfast - $1.50
Lunch - Elementary $2.75
Milk (Individual) - $.60
Girls Flag Rugby
My name is Paige Roller and I am the Program Coordinator for Girls Rugby Cincinnati. We have registration open for our flag rugby teams in Oxford, Fairfield, and Norwood.
