Ohio Graduation Test
The week of March 12th-16th
sophomores will be took the OGT. They have
been studying very hard all school year to make
our school very proud like in previous years. We
want to take time to thank all the teachers that
have helped every student prepare for this test.
This is a very big test that every student needs
to try their very best on. The state requires for
our schools to have 75% of the students pass
each test. Last year, our sophomores made it in
the eighties and nineties in every subject.

a soldier’s family. While Lebron and his
teammates had a layover in Oklahoma for a fill
up, they all got off the plane and went to look in
the airport. They ran into a group of soldiers
and they wanted to get their picture taken with
the team. Lebron was willing to take his
picture, while the other teammates just sat
there. Lebron told them that they needed to get
up and take their picture, so they finally did.
While they had met these soldiers, they became
close to one soldier and he asked the team to
help him surprise his family. They got the group
photo put onto a hooded sweatshirt. People say
The boy’s basketball team ended their
