Fifty students from Fort Frye, Belpre, Warren High School, Warren Middle School, Caldwell competed in allied Robotics teams meaning that schools were paired with students from other schools to work together to win the competition. Fort Frye's Dominic Stone and his Belpre Team 1 allies won the Championship in the Robotics Competition! Tanner Boswell and his Belpre Team 6 allies won runner-up in the Robotics Championship. Next, in the Drones single team competition, Levi McConnell and Connor Schnell won the Drones Championship! Additionally, Conner Dyar and Elliot Gilcrist won runner-up in the Drones Championship. Fort Frye Drones swept the field as the last three rounds were all Fort Frye pilots and co-pilots. Several generous donors (Micro Machine Works, Ascent, Beverly Lions Club and some wishing to remain anonymous) sponsored this event with scholarship money and these winners will receive a grand total of $510. Appalachian Ohio Manufacturing Coalition, Wings, Etc. of Belpre, and Kroger of Belpre generously supported our meal today.

4th grade students at Lowell Elementary completed a letter of concerns about their community for Social Studies class. Lowell Mayor, Mr. Steve Weber was very touched by their suggestions and letters that he is working toward implementing some of their suggestions such as signs to not litter at the park and fixing some burnt out street lights. The students were very excited to see that their voices were heard.
