Ada's latest news

15 minutes with Erinn Prater, AHS guidance counselor

Posted by Mary Pannabecke... on Tuesday, September 18, 2012

When did you graduate from Bluffton High School? Did you also attend Bluffton College? What was your major?

I graduated from BHS in 1990.  I attended OSU Lima my first year,  then OSU Columbus my second year and when I finally decided what to major in (elementary education), I inquired with Bluffton College about transferring there and found out I could graduate in 2 years there vs staying at OSU where it would take me 3 more years.  So, I did graduate from Bluffton College in 1994.

Tell me some favorite stories about growing up in Bluffton. Where did you hang out?
