McDowell 8th Grade Experiences "Real Money. Real World"

McDowell 8th grade students recently participated in "Real Money.Real World," a financial planning and budgeting simulation.

Real Money.Real World. (RMRW) is a youth-focused financial literacy program from Ohio State University Extension. Real Money. Real World. is fun and distinctive because it includes an interactive spending simulation that provides the opportunity to make lifestyle and budget choices similar to those made by 27-year-old adults. As a program of Ohio State University Extension, the most preferred and successful RMRW programs are partnerships of the county OSU Extension office, the school, and the business community. RMRW has three parts: Four preparatory classroom lessons, a hands-on budget management and decision-making spending simulation, and a post-session evaluation of spending choices made during the simulation.

We appreciate PickawayWorks for assisting in planning and presenting Real Money.Real World and we would like to thank the community members who participated in the budget management simulation.

Students Go Back to the '70s for Decade Dance

This year's Decades Dance hosted by the Logan Elm High School Student Union was a great success. The theme for this year's dance was the 1970's and the more than 100 students who attended really played their part. They dressed for the 70's with fringed leather vests, flowers in their hair, psychedelic prints, wide tab collared shirts, and white platform boots. Students danced to music from Queen and ABBA to The Eagles and Jimi Hendrix. Mr. Bennett taught the kids how to do the Electric Slide. Thanks goes out to Mrs. Stulley and the Student Union for organizing the dance, decorating the high school gym, and providing some tasty baked goods for refreshments.

Athletic Fields Improvement Debuts this Spring

In cooperation with the Logan Elm Athletic Boosters, improvements have been made to the high school baseball and softball diamonds. Improvements included new and larger backstops with block and brick foundations, improved drainage, and new scoreboards.

The Logan Elm Athletic Department is seeking sponsorship for its new softball scoreboard. The ad space will be 2’x16’ and sponsors' ads or logos will be placed directly on the scoreboard. Terms for sponsorship: $5000 for a 5-year commitment. The fee can be paid in full upfront, or in yearly equal installments. Contact Eric Karshner by email (eric.karshner@loganelm.org) or phone (740-474-7503) to express interest or if you have questions.

Pickaway Elementary celebrated Read Across America. Students had a different dress theme each day of the week. The entire building also participated in DEAR time daily. Students and teachers spent time reading for enjoyment. We even had 4th graders and 3rd graders Buddy reading with Kindergarten and 1st Grade students. It was a great week! Pictured are some of the recent "Be A Brave" recipients from Pickaway Elementary.
