Ada residents could take some community involvement cues from Isaac Spar.
Isaac’s interests demonstrate an envious list of achievements and participation in Ada High School and the Ada community organizations.
It’s no wonder he was recently named one of two Kenton Elks Club high school boy teens of the school year.
His focus ranges from school sports, – including swimming, soccer, tennis – quiz bowl, music, ethics bowl, Boy Scouts, as a class officer, 4-H, Makerfest, National Honor Society, T.E.A.M.S, and involvement in a church mission trip.

Pardon our recent distracation. The Icon has a couple 15-minute interviews with ONU international students that we've not had a chance to post. Our intern, Liza Dyachuk, from Russia, conducted these in early March. We hope these students are able to continue to communicate with their family and we hope everyone is well.
