FROM ADA BULLDOGS FACE BOOK - In Miss Steiner's elementary art classes students studied artists who are putting positive messages on the streets for the public to see. They were asked to create a poster that promotes a positive message at school. They choose their materials and created their own designs. They are all around our building right now. Here's an example of their positive messages.

Four costly turnovers spelled disaster for Ada as the football Bulldogs traveled to Paulding last Friday night and were defeated by the Panthers, 35-0. Ada’s fourth conference loss in a row drops them to 1-4 in the N.W.C. and 2-6 overall.
Paulding built a 21-0 first half lead behind an opportunistic defense that finished the game with two interceptions and two fumble recoveries in the shutout.
