Alicia Anderson - Guest Column
I am a proud graduate of the Lima City Schools as is my husband. I am a proud parent of Lima Senior High School graduates and I am honored to be able to serve as president of the Lima School Board.
Let me tell you why I and so many in this community have such great pride in this school district.
The offerings at the Lima City Schools are unmatched by any school in our region. Our 11 Career Tech programs offer hands-on, real-work experience, including in our student-run restaurant and auto garage and on our new 30-acre farm.

SOMERSET CO., Md. – A staff member from Somerset County Public Schools who nearly lost everything was presented with a generous gift.
The Somerset County Technical High School chapter of Skills USA recently held a fundraiser for Caffey Jones. We’re told Jones, who is a valued SCPS employee, was forced to relocate earlier this year due to a fire. She and her family lost most of their possessions.
Skills USA, along with the SCPS community, rallied together and presented Mrs. Jones with a $217 check to assist her with relocating to a new home.

LISBON The Columbiana County Career Center (CCCTC) is preparing for yet another summer construction project.
Superintendent Chuck Adkins reported at this past week’s meeting this will be another project to benefit those in the expanding adult education programs. Then he plans to turn his attention to the needs of the high school students the following year.
Last summer, the CCCTC created new restrooms for the adult education students and remodeled the current lobby for the building. Adkins said they were starting to look at design schematics for the latest improvements.
The latest project will create an entrance and a lobby for the adult education program on the west side of the building, separate from the high school entrance. There would also be the potential to add parking over on that side of the building.
