Cincinnati’s students deserve a plan for success | Opinion

With the new school year underway, Ohio students have returned to their classrooms, settled into new routines, and begun setting goals for the year ahead. Teachers and families are helping them measure progress, overcome challenges, and understand that meaningful improvement rarely happens by accident. It requires clear goals, thoughtful planning, and a commitment to results. Ohio, and Cincinnati in particular, should approach the future of education with that same sense of purpose. Our shared goal must be to make Ohio the best place for every student to learn, prepare for a career, and build a successful life. Achieving that vision should be a priority for all of us. Ohio Excels has long been committed to this goal as are local organizations like the Cincinnati Business Committee, Cincinnati Regional Business Committee, and the Cincinnati Regional Chamber. Organizations like ours, which advocate for stronger education and workforce outcomes, recognize that the success of our students is directly tied to the future of our communities, our economy, and our state. And businesses have never expected schools to do this work alone. Across Ohio, employers open their doors to students through internships, co-ops, job shadowing, apprenticeships, and other work-based learning opportunities that expose young

Cincinnati high school football roundup. Who won week 11's top games?

Under beautiful skies and with perfect weather throughout Southwest Ohio, the first round of the Ohio High School Athletic Association football playoffs began with the 4- through 12-seeds taking the field. Four road teams won, pulling off the upset according to seed line, and there were plenty of exciting moments. Here's a recap of the first week of Cincinnati high school football postseason action, setting up next week's regional quarterfinals . Talawanda meets the moment in Division II One year ago, Talawanda was on top of the world. The Brave had their best season since 2019, earning and winning a home playoff game in Division III to finish 10-2. When the OHSAA released their updated Division assignments, some players in the locker room were dismayed to hear they'd spend 2026 in the more competitive Division II.
