OHIO VALLEY Each year, for as long as I can remember,
Ohio Valley Publishing prints its annual “Letters to Santa” edition but this year, we weren’t sure if the pandemic would postpone it until 2021.
COVID-19 has affected every aspect of life, and especially those who attend public school – in this case, second graders who provide us with letters each year. Behind the scenes, teachers organize this mass mailing to us but with so many students moved to remote learning, it was unknown whether this special edition would be possible.
