The Nov. 6 ballot includes an important issue for voters in the Ada Exempted
Village Schools community who have the opportunity to help the district
continue its excellence.
This is not a new tax or a tax increase. Renewal of the five-year, 2.9-mill
permanent improvement levy will ensure the district has the needed funds for
textbooks, new technology, security upgrades, new buses, building repairs and
school equipment.
Voters in Ada have approved permanent improvement levies since 1975, with
strong support. Doing so also has helped ensure a strong community.
Earlier this week Ada 5th graders, with the guidance from Mrs. Daft, designed their own device to protect an egg dropped from the school playground tallest slide. Forty-eight out of 73 students had successful drops. (From Ada Bulldogs Facebook)

October is the spookiest month of the year with goblins and ghosts walking the streets later in the month, a perfect month of a paranormal program.
Four Lima ladies, known as the Ohio Paranormal Ghost Gals, present programs on their paranormal investigations. Several of them will be at the Ada Public Library at 11 a.m. on Saturday, Oct. 13.
They will talk about their findings, how they investigate for paranormal occurrences, and what equipment they use. The program is free and open to the public.
