330 Ohio school districts rally against revised bill targeting EdChoice funding


According to the Vouchers Hurt Ohio website, several Mahoning Valley school districts have been members for one or more years since 2021, including Poland, Liberty, Springfield Local, South Range and Youngstown City.

“Rep. Callender presents his proposed legislation as though the coalition is somehow wasting school funds, using it on frivolous litigation. Our lawsuit uncovered a blatant problem in the way state lawmakers continue to inadequately and inequitably fund our public schools. Judge Page has already found this program, EdChoice, to be unconstitutional. State lawmakers should be appreciative that we have uncovered this unconstitutional issue so they can fix it,” William L. Phillis, with Vouchers Hurt Ohio and the Ohio Coalition for Equity & Adequacy of School Funding, stated.

COLUMBUS, Ohio — Oluchi Okananwa had 17 points and 10 rebounds, Yarden Garzon added 17 points and No. 20 Maryland rallied from a 19-point deficit in the first half to beat eighth-ranked Ohio State 76-75 on Sunday.

3 killed in head-on crash on State Route 60 in Muskingum County


A two-vehicle collision on State Route 60 claimed three lives, according to the Ohio State Highway Patrol.

The crash occurred just after 3 p.m. Saturday in Wayne Township. Investigators report that 18-year-old Adam Cornelison, of Duncan Falls, was driving a 2010 Mercury Milan southbound when his vehicle traveled left of center. The Mercury struck a northbound 2025 Honda CR-V operated by Bradley Stanley, 53, of Newark.

Cornelison was pronounced dead at the scene. The Highway Patrol noted he was not wearing a seatbelt at the time of the impact.

Two passengers in the Honda CR-V, Mackenzie Lawrence, 29, and Brooklyn Stanley, 22, both of Newark, were taken to Genesis Hospital. Both later succumbed to their injuries.
