After several weeks of remote learning, the state, county, and our community are still experiencing a rise in the number of positive Covid cases and quarantines.
However, we feel that we need to safely get our students back in the building and with their teachers.
Our experience with contact tracing has shown that each positive student case has resulted in 10-20 quarantines each time.
Harvest is mostly complete with a few corn fields that still need to be shelled, according to Mark Badertscher of the Hardin extension office.
According to the Nov. 30 Ohio crop weather report, corn is 92% harvested in Ohio and 69% of the wheat is either rated good or excellent.
Soybean harvest is wrapped up in Hardin County. During the growing season, from April 15 through Oct. 15, average rainfall was 20.35 inches, which made 2020 a dry year. This is 4.57 inches below the 10-year average growing season precipitation, and 5.76 less inches of rain than last year’s growing season.
