BARNESVILLE The Barnesville Area Education Foundation provides funds for local education systems and students that might not otherwise be available through public funding.
Each year the foundation evaluates and votes on worthy nominations for the BAEF Hall of Fame. This year the Hall of Fame inductees are Alvia Delorn Jackson, a 1955 graduate; and Charles Jay Phillips, a 1961 graduate of Barnesville High School.
Jackson was a four-year letterman in football (1951-54 seasons) and helped his team win an East Ohio Athletic League Championship in 1952. He scored 148 points in his football career, which still stands at No. 8 in BHS all-time scoring records.
