It’s All About the Kids
That’s My Opinion, By Bob Robinson
As more and more educators and young people discover County News
Online, they are seeing opportunities to showcase the talents of future
generations. How many of you knew that East School Fourth Graders had
their own newspaper? I didn’t. Not only do they have a school
newspaper, they are making it available to Darke County CNO readers
beginning Monday. Since its inception County News Online has been
viewed as a fundraising opportunity for the Senior Scribes Scholarship
Fund. It has been successful with more than $5,000 in scholarship
funds... Read More. More Opinion. |

Ohio teachers to be watched and graded on classroom performance
CLEVELAND, Ohio -- Teachers across Ohio should expect a lot more
criticism of their classroom work in the next few years. Their
principals will be in their classrooms more. Or their assistant
principals, or even outside evaluators, all watching them, taking notes
and essentially grading the teachers. Don’t... Read More. More News. |

| SENIOR SCRIBES OPINION |
This letter is to everyone who likes to eat
By Al Bliss
From a very senior citizen who should know better. Functioning with a
few health problems in my seventh decade and after twenty years in the
Navy and thirty seven years married to bright, strong willed lady who

T.V. Wars
By Naiesha Thobe
I wanted to start off by wishing a very Happy New Year to all of the

America’s favorite pasttimes: television! Who doesn’t like a good T.V.
show? Honestly, I don’t watch much T.V. I either don’t have the time or

by John Hayward

“Constitution” thing, and assign himself the power to make recess
appointments when the Senate is not in recess. The Constitution could
