professor at the University of Dayton, “It (Ohio) is on life support
and is hurdling towards death.” He is correct. I’m not sure anyone
would take issue with that statement… certainly not me. However, if you
take the Dayton Business Journal article in context, you might want to
re-evaluate the statement. I did. Is the “funeral” taking place because
our taxes and business... Read More. More Opinion.

GADE WRITING CONTEST RUNNER UP

Memory Filled Shore
By Olivia Wysong, 8th Grade
DeColores Montessori School
Tiring and out of breath I climbed to the top of the towering sand
dune. I holler back down to Grandpa who was only about half way up. I
leaped down to him and my feet sunk just enough to allow the fine sand
to creep around my toes. I grabbed his rough hand and used all my
weight to help him up. He pretended that I was strong enough to pull
him, and allowed himself to be... Read More. See More Teen Scribes. |

Townhall...

By Michael Barone
Last week, I noted that various forms of the word “unexpected” almost
