Ada’s school board reorganized for 2015 on Jan. 8. It was the 154th reorganizational meeting for the board, making it one of the longest continual annual Ada events.
The following appointments took place:
• Tara Griffith, board president
• Ron Fleming, vice president
The board set the third Thursday of each month at 6 p.m. as its regular monthly meeting. Those meetings take place in the board of education office of the 1971 school wing.
The Village of Ada is currently accepting applications for the position of Pool Manager and Street Department Employee.
The position announcement and the Village Employment Application forms are available at the Village offices. Contact the village offices at 419.634.4045 for more information.
The Village Pool is overseen by the Village Council and the Village Administrator. Security is provided by the Village Police Department.
Pool Rules and Regulations are published each spring so the 2015 document has not yet been created. It is likely that it will be similar to the 2014 Pool Brochure.
During the school year that just ended, teachers and administrators at Ada Schools have been adjusting to new expectations from the Ohio Department of Education, according to Dr. Suzanne Darmer, superintendent.
