ICON VIEWS ENCOURAGED TO TAKE PART IN SURVEY AT BOTTOM OF STORY

Superintendents from nearly 40 school districts, including Ada Schools, have formed a network to advocate for positive changes in public education. The group is called Northwest/West Central Ohio Public School Advocacy Network. 

The network grew from concerns over a loss of local control in public education. It hopes to inform communities about challenges and opportunities public schools face so community members might exercise a more informed influence over state and local decisions involving children's education. 

The Building Committee of the Ada Public Library will be meeting on Monday, March 28 at 6:00pm in Rooms 157 & 158 of the ONU Pharmacy Building.
