Title: Yard Signs For High School Seniors
Post by: jay on April 28, 2020, 08:38:36 PM
There are many yard signs on the front lawns of west side homes honoring high school seniors.  What's interesting is home many of the yard signs are from suburban school systems.

Several years ago I was aggravated that anyone would not go to the school where they lived. I wasn't even happy when the Ohio law started allowing it.

Then I found out that at least a few, it not many students all over the state go to districts they don't live in for various reasons. Since they can go where it makes them happy, I've changed my mind and am just happy to hear that any kid graduates from anywhere.

FWIW, If Youngstown City Schools would quit blaming anyone but themselves and actually fixed their problems we could see some Youngstown Graduation signs in the suburbs.
