It's amazing how much fun a pile of stone and a few boulders can be for 8 and 9 year old boys. These kids were enjoying a climb Friday afternoon on the leftover landscape material found at the end of Autumn Drive. They are Logan Jolliff, Ethan D'Souza, Landon Simon, and Adam Conner. They all agreed, it's great to be outdoors again. (Monty Siekerman photo)

Superintendents from nearly 40 school districts, including Ada Schools, have formed a network to advocate for positive changes in public education. The group is called Northwest/West Central Ohio Public School Advocacy Network.
The network grew from concerns over a loss of local control in public education. It hopes to inform communities about challenges and opportunities public schools face so community members might exercise a more informed influence over state and local decisions involving children's education.
