As the United States prepares to celebrate its 250th anniversary in 2026, Ohio Supreme Court Chief Justice Sharon Kennedy is working to expand government and civics educational programs across the state. Speaking at the Allen County Republican luncheon, Chief Justice Kennedy shared details of the initiative as part of her role on the America 250-Ohio Commission.
Some local kids had a fun-filled educational adventure around Lima on Monday. Elida schools had their students out on an educational field trip as part of their dare program, which included both the Allen County Juvenile Detention Center and juvenile court. In the courtroom, the kids got to participate in a mock trial to learn about the ins and outs of how the justice system works. The students were picked for each role and were assisted by the court staff in the case of the stolen video game. A good way to make education fun.
