One of state's top basketball players returns from prep school for senior season

Devin Bolden, an Indiana Junior All-Star and City Player of the Year last season at Cardinal Ritter, reenrolled at Ritter this week after leaving for an East Coast prep school following his junior year. The 6-foot-8 Bolden, who averaged 20.9 points, 12.6 rebounds and 1.4 blocked shots as a junior for Ritter, had planned to play his senior year at Rocktop Academy in the Philadelphia area. Former Ritter coach Derrick Williams was at Rocktop Academy but is no longer after his mother passed away last month. Ritter athletic director Levar Johnson confirmed that Bolden has enrolled at Ritter, which finished 14-13 last season and won a sectional championship. Former assistant Steven Lopez is now the Raiders’ coach. “He’s back (at Ritter) and our focus is on moving forward,” Bolden’s father C.J. Bolden said Friday. “Things didn’t work out like we hoped staying at Rocktop like we planned initially. But we’re focused on moving forward and doing what’s best for Devin moving forward.” Johnson said he expects Bolden to be cleared for full athletic eligibility by the Indiana High School Athletic Association. Under the IHSAA rules, a student whose “second transfer involves a return to the IHSAA Member School where they

Too many public school referendums lost on Election Day | Opinion

Watching the results come in on Election Day, I was grateful to see over two-thirds of Indiana's school referendums pass with ample community support, including in Indianapolis. But I was also devastated that many others across the state failed . It’s looking like 12 school districts will enter a maelstrom of fiscal uncertainty. I know what’s next: cuts, consolidations and closures. Teachers will lose their jobs. Students will lose access to programs, transportation and maybe school itself. And shrinking communities will lose an anchor that moored them from the storm. Who is responsible? People will argue that districts are inefficient, though there’s very little evidence of that where voters said no. The reality is that state and federal dollars haven’t kept pace with the rising costs of education, including diesel for buses and food for school meals. Indiana has dropped from 15th to 38th in the nation in per-pupil funding. Cuts to Medicaid have also hammered schools, as it provides the core revenue stream for school nurses, psychologists, occupational and physical therapists, special education technology and mental health services. If schools are going to continue offering those services, they have to find a way to pay. So why doesn’t the

School health programs are crucial for children | Opinion

The American School Health Association recently contacted me for possible involvement in their October centennial national conference held in Indianapolis. It reminded me of my work in addressing school-health issues when I was Indiana’s state health commissioner and how important schools are to supporting children’s health. Schools are part of our public health system and play a significant role in assuring our children’s physical, social, and emotional health. Schools are ideal places to meet children where they are. It’s difficult for an unhealthy, disadvantaged, or struggling child to learn and prepare for a productive, well-adjusted life. Schools can help reduce health disparities and, ultimately, health care costs. They support physical health by providing physical education, organized sports, and health education that includes instruction on disease prevention, sexual health, and healthy nutrition and lifestyles. Education regarding the perils of substance abuse, including tobacco, vaping, and alcohol, can reduce initiation and foster resistance to peer pressure. Knowledge is power. School breakfast and lunch programs are particularly critical for low-income children, many of whom rely on these meals as a primary source of daily nutrition. It’s difficult for a hungry child to learn. School-based health clinics improve access to medical and preventative care,
