New sign code amendment offers more flexibility
By Deb Buker
The new sign code revision consolidates and simplifies the Perrysburg district requirements for
signs, said Tom King, Perrysburg Planning and Zoning Administrator.
Prior to the March 19
meeting of Perrysburg City
Council, a public hearing
was held on the new proposed sign code amendment. Mr. King explained
the proposed amendment
would replace the current
sign code 1250.29-40.
“Our staff believes this
code is a significant
improvement,” he told
council members. “The
current code is confusing
to use and now courts are
insisting that sign regulations be content neutral.
There is to be no
favoritism between commercial or non-commercial
speech as to the rules. As a
result, there are a number
of ramifications as to how
signs are classified–particularly temporary signs.”
Mr. King stated that the
revision offers more flexibility.
•It allows a special
approval use of a Community Landmark sign that
can be exempt from the
regulations when such a
high quality sign is
deemed by Perrysburg
Planning Commission and
Perrysburg City Council to
be a community landmark.
•It has a more generous
definition of sign area in
exchange for basic design
criteria for signs.
•It adjusts the corridor
overlay standards along
State Route 25 as to multitenant signs restoring size
and height limits that governed before the five feet
height limit was adopted.
“It explicitly prohibits
pennants, streamers, inflatables, whirlagigs and signs
fixed to light poles,” added
the administrator.
The matter of removal
of non-conforming signs
also is readdressed, he told
council. “In August, council passed the allowance
for a change in message
and graphics on non-conforming signs those too
large or too small,” said
Mr. King. “This revision
adopts the more accommodating rule that allows sign
panels can be replaced,
however, makes a sunset
date 10 years hence after
which no change to a sign
may be made without a
change to make the entire
sign to conform to the then
current regulations. This
necessitates a program of
the planning and zoning
division to identify and
notify all owners of nonconforming signs of the
new rule, which we are
prepared to do.”
The planning commis-
sion discussed code
changes at four separate
meetings and in January
recommended adoption of
the amendment.
Mr. King added the
planning and zoning staff
consulted with a number
of interested parties
including the Toledo Area
Sign Contractors Association for input on the
changes.
“No sign code is perfect, so this revision would
allow variances to be
granted by the BZA under
strict criteria,” he told
council members.
Council President Joe
Lawless commended Mr.
King and the planning and
zoning staff for their work
on the revision and making
the code better and userfriendly.
City council will vote
on the sign code amendment in April.

Perrysburg School District in need of additional classroom Senior Nick Billmaier earns Eagle Scout ranking
space in two elementary schools for 2013-14 school year
By Deb Buker
Reviewing facility needs
for the 2013-14 school year
at the March 18 meeting of
the Perrysburg Board of
Education, Superintendent
Tom Hosler said six additional elementary classrooms are needed–two at
Fort Meigs and four at
Frank school.
The superintendent told
board members the district
is looking at a fifth grade
classroom size of 28 at
both Fort Meigs and Frank
in the fall.
“We are monitoring
closely second grade at
Frank and Toth with a class
size average of 26. We are
watching closely first grade
at Woodland with a class
size of close to 25,” he
said. “Registration currently is underway for all day
kindergarten and we are on
pace to surpass this year’s
55 percent participation in
the all day program versus
half day. We are evaluating
options relative to staffing,
facilities,
academic
achievement and budget.”
The superintendent also
told the board that 11 additional classrooms in the
two elementary schools is
the desired classroom
space.
Fort Meigs–five additional classrooms.
•Additional fifth grade
classroom;
•Additional special
needs room;
•Move current classroom from storage area;
•Additional room for
growth, and
•If the district selects all
day kindergarten as the pri-
Bill McFarland to serve as interim principal
at Woodland School
At a special Perrysburg Board of Education meeting on Monday
evening, the board was expected to hire Bill McFarland as interim principal at Woodland School effective April 8, on an as-needed basis for
the reminder of the school year.
Mr. McFarland has served the past two years as interim superintendent at Rossford Schools. He served as Eastwood’s superintendent
from 1998 to 2006. After retiring, he was principal of McComb High
School for four years. Prior, he served as an Eastwood middle school
principal, Genoa high school principal and taught social studies for
seven years at a Mansfield middle school.
He and his wife, Marilyn, a Woodmore Schools kindergarten teacher,
live in Perrysburg Township.
Mr. McFarland replaces Dan Creps who accepted the position of
Rossford superintendent.
The board also was expected to approve the purchase of six
portable classrooms.
mary kindergarten option,
an additional room would
be needed.
For next school year, the
immediate need is two
additional classrooms–fifth
grade and special needs.
The alternative is to move
the new fifth grade section
to the music room, move
the music room to the computer lab, and cannibalize
the lab or place it on a cart.
The new special needs
would share space with
current intervention specialists and move to the
second grade classroom
wing, explained Mr. Hosler.
Frank–six classrooms.
•Additional fifth grade
classroom;
•Additional
second
grade classroom;
•Additional first grade
classroom;
•Additional special
needs classroom, and
•If the district selects all
day kindergarten as the primary option, two more
rooms would be needed.
Again, the immediate
need is four additional
classrooms. The alternative
is to move the new fifth
grade classroom to the
computer lab and cannibalize the lab; move the new
first grade section to special needs/intervention
classroom;
special
needs/intervention would
utilize the gifted room or
music room. If the music
room were utilized, it
would go on a cart and gifted would go to the library
on off days.
If the second grade class
size increases, an additional teacher classroom would
be needed. If there is no
space, the second grade
classroom would move to
Woodland school. If
kindergarten would require
more than two classrooms,
the multiple disabilities
unit would be required to
move to another building,
Mr. Hosler explained to the
board.
The superintendent also
reviewed the Perrysburg
Schools Strategic Facilities
Committee report that recommends the construction
of a new seventh and
eighth grade building on
the high school campus.
The superintendent stated that the committee and
board will again meet to
discuss options and to
move forward.
The facilities plan is to
be finalized by the end of
this year with a possible
levy on the ballot in 2014
or 2015. If approved by
voters, construction time is
approximately 18 months
with an opening in 2018.

Time capsule to be on display
at Wood County Museum April 6
National Newspaper
Association
The Wood County Historical Center and Museum will
hold its annual Spring Opening on Saturday, April 6. The
Museum is located at 13660
County Home Road in Bowling Green.
Outside, the Boomtown
comes alive as the Northwest
Ohio Blacksmiths hold an
open forge event to demonstrate blacksmithing techniques from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m.
Also on the grounds, visitors
can enjoy the scenery of the
historic property including
the log cabin, oil derrick,
other out-buildings, a nature
trail, and the herb garden.
The Historical Museum,
asylum and ice house will be
open for self-guided tours
from 1 to 4 p.m., with historic
lawn games and more than 20
exhibits that highlight the history of Wood County and the
Infirmary, many taking on a
fresh face for the new season.
“It is with great excitement we present new interpretation in many of the
exhibit rooms within the
museum, including several
new exhibits,” said Holly
Hartlerode-Uppal, the museum’s curator.
The newest, or perhaps the
oldest, exhibit on display is
the 1913 Bowling Green time
capsule, which was uncovered in August 2012, as workers were razing the former
Central Administration Building on South Grove Street.
Newspapers, photographs,
and trinkets from 1913 were
preserved inside a 12”x8”x4”
tin box, and will now be on
display at the Wood County
Historical Museum, with a
replicated traveling exhibit
available to area schools starting in the fall.
The Spring Opening
marks the beginning of the
museum’s 2013 tour season.
The museum will be open
Tuesdays through Fridays,
from 9:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.,
and weekends from 1 to 4
p.m. through the end of October, and will re-open in
December for the annual Old
Home Holiday Tour.

He visits nursing homes
to gather stories from those
who lived in and remember
the past, and volunteers at a
local prison to discuss their
lives with the inmates. His
archaeological, historical
and ancient finds are shown
with vivid accompanying
stories.
He welcomes visitors to
his home and garden in
Wapakoneta, Ohio, where he
and his brother have hauled
in stones and fashioned a
“Tower of Peace.” Its picture and his story have been
published in several magazines. The monumental edifice inspires awe from people who visit it and has been
featured on national television. It is surrounded by
other symbols and “things”
he has collected for decades.
The inside of his home is a
repository of museum quality artifacts.

‘The Master’ to be shown at Way Library on April 4
Way Public Library continues its popular “Show
Me the Movie” contemporary film series on Thursday, April 4, at 2 p.m., with
a screening of “The Master.”
Joaquin Phoenix stars in
this drama as Freddie Quell,
an alcoholic, psychologically damaged World War II
veteran who, unsettled and
uncertain of his future, finds
himself entangled in an eccentric cult led by “the Master,” played by Philip
Seymour Hoffman.
In this engrossing por-
trait of drifters and seekers,
the tantalizing lure of a
charismatic belief system is
examined and its inner
workings revealed,
all
while Quell’s erratic and destructive behavior drives the
story. Amy Adams also
stars.
The screening is open to
adults only.
The “Show Me the
Movie” series is sponsored
by Skotynsky Financial
Group, LLC.
Admission and refreshments are offered free of
charge.

muskies in the state for 2012. This is the first time in
about 2-1/2 hours. Thursday
repeated itself, and then we
went far away from our ‘hot
spot’ on Friday to not pressure the fish. We returned late
in the day to the ‘hot spot’
only to make sure the fish had
not moved. We caught another muskie and decided to
go back to camp knowing we
had a good shot of winning
the tournament.”
Jake and Jenna have always enjoyed muskie fishing
with their father, who has
been the president of the Ohio
Huskie Muskie Club, Inc. for
the past eight years. Jake has
been a club trustee for four
years prior to becoming the
club secretary for the past two
years. Jake and his father actively compete on the OMTT
and his father will be fishing
the Professional Muskie
Tournament Trail (PMTT)
starting in April with the
club’s Treasurer Paul Anderson from Bloomingdale,
Ohio.

The Ohio Huskie Muskie
Club, Inc. and the Ohio Department of Natural Resources have recognized
Jake Lederer, 17, and Jenna
Lederer, 12, for catching the
largest muskies in the State
of Ohio for 2012 in the Junior Angler Released category. They received their
awards at the 52nd annual
awards banquet held March
23, at the 356th Fighter
Group Banquet Hall in North
Canton, Ohio.
Jake caught a 44” muskie
on July 7, at Salt Fork Lake
near Cambridge Ohio. Jenna
caught a 42” muskie on July
4, also at Salt Fork Lake. The
Lederers were spending the
holiday time at the lake tubing and pre-fishing for the
Ohio Muskie Tournament
Trail (OMTT) event held on
the upcoming weekend. Jake
and his father Fred Lederer
dominated the event by taking first place and Big Fish
for the event.
Jake missed out on taking
the full sweep when three fish
got off the line when it was
his turn to reel in the fish,
which would have given him
second place as well.
“We had a very hot pattern
working where we were
catching up to six muskies a
day,” said Mr. Lederer. “We

Township Police Report
Dear Editor:
A few moments ago, I witnessed three different school
buses just about get hit by fast
moving motorists as they were
coming out of the Perrysburg
Junior High School bus drive.
Three different times, horns
blaring.
To those motorists, I ask
you–where has the compassion for fellow man gone?
What happens when you hit
one of these buses full of kids?
What is so important that you
need to take such a huge
chance on hurting or killing
yourself or someone’s child?
I feel sorry for all of our
bus drivers. They have to
watch out for the kids walking, the kids on bicycles, traffic approaching in two lanes
from two different directions
and from across at the intersection of East Boundary
Street making left and right
turns.
Some of these drivers, I
would guess most, are parents
of kids at the junior high who
have picked up their own child
and are on their way. Every
day, there is a line of cars and
trucks who stop and wait for
all of the buses to exit the bus
service drive at the school.
They wait patiently until every
bus gets onto the street and
then they are on their way. It
is this habit that makes the bus
drivers either unable to see or
are led to believe everyone
else will slow down or stop.
These drivers mean well, and I
am sure the bus drivers appreciate their courtesy.
This just is another reason
why you cannot increase the
speed limit on South Boundary Street. For every 5 mph
faster a car is traveling, the
more likely a pedestrian will
be fatally wounded. Drivers
and parents: do you want to
live with that on your conscience?
Today, the speeding silver
pickup truck racing down the
center turn lane would have Tboned the bus had he not
slammed on the brakes just in
time.
If something isn’t done,
one day soon someone’s kid is
going to be killed out here. I
pray it isn’t one of mine as
they walk on that sidewalk so
close to these inconsiderate,
dangerous drivers.
Slow down people. Pay attention and give the school
buses a break.

The survey outcome is
based on the information
each school district provides
about funding, staffing,
commitment to standards
and access to music instruction. Data is analyzed statistically and is verified via a
follow-up audit.
“The survey measured a
variety of factors, including
budgetary commitment to
music, opportunities to learn
music, the presence of
highly qualified, certified
music teachers, adherence to
state and national standards,
types of musical experiences offered and opportunities for performance and
competition, among others,”
according to the NAMM
Foundation. “To make the
Best Communities, a community is committed to access and high standards for
music education in all
areas.”
“Congratulations
and
thank you to the Perrysburg
community, parents and students for your continued
support of music education
in our district,” stated Scott
Schleuter, Perrysburg High
School director of bands.

Experience makes a difference $for patients
WASHto home
transitioning from hospital
Many patients discharged
from the hospital this year
will require skilled nursing
and rehabilitation before returning home. They will face
a monumental decision as to
which team of doctors, therapists, nurses and social workers they will trust to help them
recover.
Each day, Heartland of
Perrysburg treats patients
with hospital-level acuity and
medically complex conditions
transitioning from hospital to
home.
According to Cheryl
Lampkowski-Sowle, administrator at Heartland of Perrysburg, “The patient’s best
way home is through our
doors. Our outcomes and
professional experience reflect that.”
Last year, the centers admitted more than 161,000 patients for rehabilitation care
after surgery, illness or injury.
The majority of these patients
will return home and to the
community to lead independent, productive lifestyles.
“Our role in the spectrum
of health care continues to expand and change, and our
nurses and therapists have
hundreds of years of combined experience and we believe this knowledge makes a
monumental impact on our
patients’ ability to recover.
We are serving an increasing
number of patients transitioning between hospital and
home,”
said Ms. LampN
kowski-Sowle. “We are not
just a skilled nursing center;
we are a post-hospital rehabilitation center.”
Whether a patient is recovering from surgery, illness or
injury, Heartland works with
the patient, family members
and physicians to create individualized care plans that recognize the unique needs of
each patient.
The transition from hospital to home is further enhanced by a nursing staff that
receives training in medical
management and rehabilitation. At Heartland discharge
planning begins on admission
and goals are set to help the
patient return home as quickly
as possible. The combined
efforts of the therapy, rehabilitative nursing, dietary and social services departments
provide guidance, family support and the encouragement
needed for patients to return
to their independent lifestyles.
“Our patients are coming
to us younger and sicker and
expect to recover quicker and
return home,” Andria Melchor, admissions director said.
“Our rehabilitation gyms are
busier than ever with treatments offered daily, with patients working on regaining
strength, stamina and the
skills they need to return
home.”
Heartland of Perrysburg
offers skilled nursing and
physical, speech and occupationalN therapy, for patients
with hospital level medical
acuity as they recover from
surgery, illness or injury.
Often, patients may meet the
criteria for discharge from a
hospital, but that doesn’t necessarily mean that they are
ready to return home, they
need rehabilitation to restore
their physical abilities and relearn certain skills, as well as
to achieve the confidence they
need to return to a productive
lifestyle.
Heartland of Perrysburg,
10540 Fremont Pike, Perrysburg, is part of the HCR
ManorCare family. The HCR
ManorCare health care family
comprises centers that are
leading providers of shortterm post-acute services.
With 60,000 caregivers nationwide, the HCR ManorCare centers are pre-eminent
care providers in their communities. These locations operate primarily under the
respected Heartland and
ManorCare Health Services
names. The skilled nursing
and rehabilitation centers provide post-hospital care for patients transitioning from
hospital to home. Clinical
teams have the demonstrated
track record and commitment
to impact the success of patients needing this level of
post-acute care so they can return home to a meaningful
lifestyle.

Sunday, March 10, 2013, at
St. Luke’s Hospital in

Germany. In 1949, at age 21/2, she and her mother traveled for 13 days by ship to the
United States to join her
grandmother in Toledo.
She attended McKinley
Elementary School, DeVilbiss High School, and graduated from the University of
Toledo in business administration majoring in accounting.
She worked as an accountant for Milton (Tony) Knight,
Richard Bernstein, and Vince

New York Harbor. They were
avid boaters and together explored the Great Lakes and
surrounding areas. With her
mother, Mrs. Lee visited her
birthplace in Germany and
was able to visit the hospital
where she was born just a
week before it was torn down
to make way for a shopping
center. She especially enjoyed

friends in Arizona, Ron and
Peggy Wade.
She was an avid reader
and an animal lover and had a
special fondness for dogs.

Founded in 1936, Buckeye Boys State is the largest
Boys state program in the
nation with an attendance of
1,200 young men annually.
Penta Culinary students serve dishes from 12 countries
From March 20 to 22,
high school seniors enrolled
in Penta Career Center ’s
culinary arts program treated
visitors to a Taste of the
Nations. As part of their
senior project, the students
prepared dishes from a
dozen countries around the
world.
Students researched the
cultures of the countries,
then selected and learned
about native dishes. Their
research culminated with the
creation of native dishes.
Countries represented this
year were Australia, Brazil,
Cuba, France, Greece, India,
Italy, Macedonia, Madagascar, Pakistan, Russia and
South Korea.
Rikki Butz of Springfield
schools said her team chose
Madagascar. “We wanted to
do something more tropical,” she added.
She and teammate Taylor
Borkowski of Rossford
Schools prepared shredded
beef and rice, chicken curry
and vanilla bean biscuits.
Ariel Martin of Springfield Schools and her partner
Jessica Partlow of Bowling
Green High School selected
Greece.
Together they created
spanakopita, lemon herb
braised rabbit and walnut
baklava.
The two also prepared
Green Lantern, a thirstquenching drink consisting
of lime juice, lime zest parsley, sugar water and club
soda.
Shawnee France of Rossford Schools worked on
Australian dishes with Zach
Bethel of Anthony Wayne,
and Charles Williams,
Northwood Schools.
Their dishes included ribeye and mock fish, shrimp
on the barbie, blue pumpkin
soup and lamingtons.
“We thought it was cool
to learn more about their cuisine, and it’s really beautiful
there,” she said.
Jason Adams of Perrysburg Schools worked with
John Birr of Rossford
Schools on the creation of
delectables from Brazil.
They made olive and bacon
empanadas, black-eyed pea
fritters and chocolate
brigadeiros.
Before deciding which
dishes to prepare, they, like
their fellow classmates, prepared and sampled a variety
of dishes.
Jason said the chocolate
brigadeiros were well liked.
“We sampled one or two,”
he said with a grin.
He also thought the fruit
punch was good. The drink
was prepared using a combination of mango, pineapple
juice, ginger ale and sweetened condensed milk.
Chef instructor Janea
Makowski said some of the
dishes students had hoped to
prepare were taken off their
menu because the ingredients were unavailable.
“I couldn't find hearts of
palm, palm oil and alligator,” she said, adding that
venison also was hard to
find.
She was able to obtain
rabbit for the Greek dish as
well as for the Russian rabbit and sour cream sauce. “I
had it sent overnight from
Minnesota,” she said.
Overall, she believes the
ingredients were fairly easy
to come by and credits the
area’s diversity. “Toledo has
a pretty good ethnic community,” she said.
This is the third year the
students have celebrated
Tastes of the Nations. The
event was open to the public.

past president of HPI. “We
decided to establish the
award after reading more
and more about Hilda Bentley and her family–we have
to remember her and what
she has done in historic
preservation. We want to
make sure that what she
started continues not only in
Perrysburg and in our
neighboring communities
but state and nationwide.”

The Perrysburg Rotary
Club’s 29th annual Charity
Auction, on February 9, was
record setting. Gross revenues reached $105,000–the
first time the club has hit the
$100,000 mark.
Net proceeds from the
Perrysburg Rotary Auction
will benefit the Rotary Club
of Perrysburg’s Endowed
Scholarship at Owens Community College and the
Cocoon Shelter, a facility that
provides safety and healing
for battered women and children.
The club’s endowed
scholarship was established
five years ago with a goal of
providing $100,000 to the
fund in five-year increments
of $20,000 each year. This
year’s auction proceeds will
complete that commitment.
The scholarship benefits
graduates of Penta Career
Center who want to pursue
post-secondary education at
Owens Community College
but need financial assistance.
In addition, nearly
$12,000 of this year’s net
auction proceeds will be
given to the Cocoon Shelter.
The balance of net auction
proceeds will benefit the Perrysburg Rotary Service Foundation, which was established to support local community projects.
Several months ago, auction co-chair Wayne Koskinen challenged his fellow
Perrysburg Rotarians to work
hard and strive to reach the
$100,000 gross revenue goal
for the auction. He agreed to
shave off his well-recognized

beard if the club achieved its
goal, and that’s exactly what
happened at the club’s March
15 meeting. Auction co-chair
Jeri Wendt did the honors as
club members cheered.
“Losing the beard was
well worth it since we met
our goal,” said Mr. Koskinen.
“I’m not sure what we’ll do
next year to top this, but we
sure will try.” The co-chair
said many factors went into
making this year’s auction
the record-setter that it was.
“Our ‘Magic of Giving’
theme allowed us to have
some fun with our graphics,
invitations and overall look
and feel of the evening,” he
said. “We even had a roving
magician to add to the festivities.”
Ms. Wendt agreed and
added, “We also brought in
Kelly Croy, a nationallyknown speaker and performance artist. He really
helped inspire those in attendance to give from the
heart.”
Auctioneer Jerry Anderson of WTOL-TV kept
things moving with his lively
commentary and side jokes.
The event at the Hilton
Garden Inn in Levis Commons featured a sit-down
dinner with a silent and oral
auction.
Sponsors for the event
were Ed Schmidt Automotive
Group, Farmers and Merchants State Bank, Morgan
Stanley SmithBarney and
Signature Bank.
The Perrysburg Rotary
Club thanks the sponsors and
donors for their generous
contributions to the auction.
“We could not have set a
record if it wasn’t for these
generous individuals and
businesses,” said Mr. Koskinen. “It shows how people in
this community really care
about each other.”

Wine, Cheese and Chocolate event
to benefit Cystic Fibrosis Foundation
A local group will host a
Wine, Cheese, and Chocolate
event on Friday, April 12,
from 7 to 10 p.m., at Belmont
Country Club. All proceeds
from the event will go directly to the Cystic Fibrosis
Foundation to be used to research a cure for the disease.
Tickets are $30 each and
may be purchased in advance
by sending an e-mail to

by calling 419-873-5779.
Cystic fibrosis is an inherited chronic disease that affects the lungs and digestive
system of about 30,000 children and adults in the United
States (70,000 worldwide). A
defective gene and its protein
product cause the body to
produce unusually thick,
sticky mucus that clogs the
lungs and leads to life-threatening lung infections and obstructs the pancreas and stops

natural enzymes from helping
the body break down and absorb food.
In the 1950s, few children
with cystic fibrosis lived to attend elementary school.
Today, advances in research
and medical treatments have
further enhanced and extended life for children and
adults with CF. Many people
with the disease can now ex-
pect to live into their 30s, 40s
and beyond.
A total of 160 patients
with Cystic Fibrosis from this
area are cared for by the local
Cystic Fibrosis Center at the
Toledo Hospital. Perrysburg
resident Violet Jane O’Leary
is counted in this number.
Violet’s family was devastated when they learned of
her inherited disease when
she was just 10 days old.
Simple acts of breathing and
eating are a challenge for her
each day. At 17 months old,
she is now taking more than
20 pills a day in order to digest her food and has a minimum of two, 45-minute
breathing treatments each day
to keep her lungs clear.
Advances continue to be
made in finding a cure but
funds are needed to keep up
the momentum of this lifesaving research.

Exploring medical technologies and opportunities
Penta Career Center students aspire to enter the medical profession
As the economy continues to recover, many high
school students are beginning to ponder future job
prospects and careers.
One field, which is in ongoing need of skilled labor,
is healthcare. Springfield
High School students interested in pursuing a career in
the health profession may
wish to consider the medical
technologies program at
Penta Career Center.
A two-year program,
medical technologies offers
students the opportunity to
learn patient care, diagnostic procedures and medical
information
technology,
while earning college credit.
Students enroll in the
program in their junior year.
During the initial year, students will receive instruction in medical terminology,
health science foundations,
support services, team
building and emergency
medical response, explained
19-year instructor Rita Haddad.
As seniors, students build
upon their team-building
skills, expand their knowledge of medical terminology, train to become Ohio
certified nurse aides, study
pharmacy and complete a
senior project on a health
topic of their choice.
Ms. Haddad said students
began the second semester
by preparing for the STNA
(state tested nursing aide)
test.
The test is comprised of
two sections–written exam
and a skills test.
The written test has
about 80 questions on different topics including, safety,
infection control, personal
care, mental health, resident
Lauren Ferree of Genoa Schools examines the ear of Laila
Jamaleddin of Perrysburg Schools. Both are seniors enrolled in the medical technologies program at Penta.
rights, communication, data
collection, basic nursing
skills, disease process and
older adult growth.
In the skills test, which
evaluates an individual’s
nurse aide skills, students
are asked to perform four
skill tasks and a hand-washing task. To pass, the exam
they must perform all tasks
correctly, she said.
Ms. Haddad believes her
students are prepared for the
test, noting that they have
completed the course work
and the clinical requirements.
For the clinical care, the
students traveled to Manor
of Perrysburg, where they
performed resident care, she
said.
While their teacher has
confidence in her students’
abilities to perform well on

the test, the students admit
to being a bit nervous, particularly as the exam comes
at a time when they are
working on senior projects,
studying pharmacy and juggling part-time jobs.
There are lots of deadlines with the STNAs, our
senior project and pharmacy, plus working, said
Lauren Ferree, of Genoa
Schools. Her project is
“Teens Abusing Pharmaceutical Drugs.”
Classmate Darren Hankins of Springfield Schools,
whose project is “Teen
Stress,” agrees. He finds the
pharmacy program to be a
challenge and works on his
pharmacy technology studies at home.
Laila Jamaleddin of Per-
rysburg Schools also believes pharmacy tech requires a lot of study.
There are 2,000 medications and remembering all of
them and their purposes and
effects can be daunting, said
the senior, who is doing her
senior project on “Music’s
Effect on the Brain.”
For Megan Ramirez, of
Rossford High School, the
biggest challenge has been
living up to everyone’s expectation as well as her own.
“Time management is
big. I can’t stress,” said the
senior who also works 25
hours each week at Kingston
residence of Perrysburg.
After taking the STNA
test, the students will turn
their attention to the pharmacy technician test. Their
instructor, Jill Heintz, is
helping the students fulfill
course requirements.
Her 25 students are
learning the trade and
generic names of medications. “It’s a pre-pharmacy
course, and students must
maintain [test] scores in the
80s,” she explained.
Upon completion of the
course this spring, the students will be administered
the national board test.
Successful completion of
both tests will lead to the
students being certified as
STNAs and pharmacy technicians.
Ms. Haddad noted that
the students save on the testing, the cost of which is paid
for by the career center.
Once STNA certified, the
students will be able to work
in nursing homes and other
healthcare facilities and with
the pharmacy certification,
they can be employed in retail pharmacy locations,
hospital or pharmacy warehouses such as the Walgreens Distribution Center
on Oregon Road in Perrysburg Township.
For their part, the students have other plans.
Megan would like to
work for a pharmacy, while
attending college.
“I want to be a coroner,”
she said and plans to attend
the University of South
Florida to study forensic
pathology.
Darren also would like to
work part time for a pharmacy during college. Although he has yet to decide
on a university, the senior
has chosen a career path.
“I’m going to study premed. I want to be a trauma
surgeon.”
Lauren plans to attend
the University of Toledo for
pharmacy and will use her
STNA certification to help
pay for her education. “I
came into medical, in part,
because there are always
jobs,” she said.
Laila will attend UT this
fall with an undecided major
in health services.
“I want to be in the medical field,” said the senior
who has considered joining
the National Guard.
The students encourage
underclassmen who may be
considering a career in medical professions to explore
the Penta program.

medical technologies, visit

Ohio’s Fifth Congressional
District to contact his office
to set up tours of the U.S.
Capitol.
“I understand the disappointment of those who have
had their previously scheduled White House tours canceled. My office will
continue to provide public
tours of the U.S. Capitol and
welcome constituents who
are visiting Washington to
schedule tours through my
office,” said Congressman
Latta.
“As a result of sequestration the federal government
is undergoing budget cuts,
including a 8.2 percent cut in
congressional office budgets, however plans to meet
the new spending levels
have been implemented
within my office to ensure
regular activities, such as
public tours, can proceed as
usual.”
The mandatory federal
budget cuts, known as sequestration, went into effect
March 1, 2013.
Under sequestration, federal agencies and offices are
required to reduce spending
within their budgets.
To schedule public tours
through
Congressman
Latta’s office, visit his Web
site at latta.house.gov or call
toll free 800-541-6446.

Remembering the War of 1812
program set for Sat., April 6
The Toledo-Lucas County
Public Library presents Remembering the War of 1812
beginning at 11 a.m. on Saturday, April 6 at the Maumee
Branch Library, 501 River
Road. This free family program is open to the public.
Light refreshments will be
served.
Schedule:
•11 a.m.–Donald Hickey
presents “Forgotten Conflict:
Why the War of 1812 Matters Today.” Mr. Hickey is an
award-winning author and a
professor of history at Wayne
State College in Nebraska.
He is best known for his
books The War of 1812: A
Forgotten Conflict and Don’t
Give Up the Ship! Myths of
the War of 1812.
•12:30 to 1:30 p.m.–Interpreters dressed in period uniforms from the 2nd
U.S. Artillery at Fort Meigs
will perform a musket firing
demonstration and talk about
the life of a soldier in the War
of 1812.
•2 p.m.–American Girl
Soiree with Caroline Abbott.
All youth in grades kindergarten through fifth grade are
invited to travel back to 1812
for an American Girl party.
Caroline Abbott is an
American Girl historical
doll/book character whose
adventures document growing up during the War of
1812. Registration for this
portion of the program is required by calling Maumee
Branch Library at 419-2595360
or
online
at
toledolibrary.org.
Although the War of
1812 is not as well known or
as popular as the Revolutionary War or the Civil War, the
second war with Great
Britain helped forge the idea
of the United States as one
nation. The Star Spangled
Banner, written during the
British siege of Baltimore, is
enduring proof of that
legacy.
Several important battles,
such as The River Raisin,
Fort Meigs, and Lake Erie,
were fought in Northwest
Ohio and Southeast Michigan.
As a result of the war, the
spirited resistance of the Native American tribes to
American settlement came to
an end in this region.

PET OF THE WEEK
Maddy: female Maine Coon; brown
with white chest, declawed
Hi there. I’m Maddy. I’m a very
sweet and proper young lady. I’m
very much a lap cat and love to curl
up with you and steal all of your
warmth! I can be a bit feisty, but for
the most part I am a total lover. I
love to play and like to watch the
other cats run around. I’m considered a special needs kitty because I have to have a special kind of food
that won’t upset my sensitive tummy. I will most likely always have soft
stool, but I use a litter box just fine. I’ve been checked out by the vet and
have a clean bill of health otherwise!
Please visit or call the Wood County Humane Society at 419-352-7339
to learn more about this great pet. All of our adoptable animals can be
viewed by visiting www.WoodCountyHumaneSociety.org.

Perrysburg Youth Lacrosse hosts winter clinics
Perrysburg Youth Lacrosse (PYL) hosted first time skills clinics in February and March
at Grace Church in Perrysburg. Fifty children attended the clinics and were introduced
to the fundamentals of lacrosse. Of those attending the sessions, 33 boys and 16 girls in
kindergarten through fourth grade received lacrosse sticks. PYL boys in seventh and
