The countdown is on. The 2012-13 Ada school year is weeks...days... away. The school has released the elementary school supply list. Also released is the elementary school class fee list.
Parents are asked to purchase these supplies over the summer so children will be able to bring them to school on the first day of school or during the annual school open house.
The school open house is Monday, Aug. 13. The first day of school is Thursday, Aug. 16.
Here's a familiar Ada building, but this view shows it in its youth. It is the "new" Dukes Memorlal Hall. Louis Dukes, founder, has his photo in the top right corner.
Jenelle Sobotka, professor and endowed chair of pharmacy practice at Ohio Northern University’s Raabe College of Pharmacy, will deliver the closing session speech at the Texas Pharmacy Association’s Rxperts Conference and Expo in The Woodlands, Texas, on July 26-29.
Sobotka will speak on “Transforming Patient Care: Influencing the System through Quality Patient Care,” which will focus on the challenges in “taking care of patients” that pharmacists will face in the future. The Rxperts Conference is the largest pharmacy conference in the southwest, with top therapeutic education sessions, state board updates and more than 100 companies in attendance.
The deadline is just a few days away for area teachers to apply for a McDonald’s MAC Grant. Teachers wanting to apply for the MAC Grant must have their applications postmarked or submitted electronically by July 31.
The application is very simple so there is still plenty of time for teachers to complete the application before the deadline. A limited number of grant recipients will be chosen on or before Sept. 1.
