Put on your thinking caps. Come up with a sentence using the word "devote." It's one of three of Wilson's Outstanding Words at Ada Elementary this month. Second grader Aubry Jordan answered it this way (we've paraphrased it): "It means, say someone devotes their free time to working on a computer."
Breaion Shanique King will participate in a panel discussion to address “Traffic Stop,” the HBO documentary about her violent arrest, at 7 p.m. on Tuesday, March 26 in the McIntosh Center activities room at Ohio Northern University. The event is free and open to the public.
King was slammed to the ground by the arresting officer when she was stopped for speeding in Austin, Texas, in June 2016. Austin police Chief Art Acevedo later apologied to King for the incident and pledged to initiate a series of administrative investigations and increased training.

Flu season is here, and that means you or a loved one might have been diagnosed with the flu.
You are not alone. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), as of Jan. 11, between 6 and 7 million Americans had already gotten sick with the flu.
Can the Flu Be Treated?
Yes—the flu can be treated with antiviral medications.
Antivirals are medications that fight the flu in your body. These medications are not sold over the counter. They require a prescription from your doctor.
The Hardin County Sheriff's Office released the following reports from the Ada Police Department, covering March 19 to March 22. The reports are attached.
