Editorial: Quit passing the buck, TPS
A parent of a special needs child in Toledo Public Schools shouldn’t have to go to a Toledo school board meeting to complain about service.

Ms. Heffernan is concerned that her child at Beverly Elementary School, who has Down syndrome, is being ignored in the classroom. Ms. Heffernan was forced to reveal in public personal issues involving her daughter that she should not have been required to complain about to the board. This was reported last Wednesday by The Blade’s Eric Taunton. The problem, as Ms. Heffernan sees it, is that Beverly has only one assigned building-wide paraprofessional.

Saint Ignatius Takes First Step to Canton
OHIO CITY, OH - This past Friday, the Saint Ignatius Wildcats (6-5) were at Wasmer Field for the fourth and final time this season, as they took on the Berea-Midpark Titans (6-5) in the 8 vs. 9 matchup in round one of the OHSAA playoffs, with the winner set to face the St. Edward Eagles (9-1) in round two. Saint Ignatius was looking to carry the positive momentum from last week's 38-20 victory over Football North into Friday night's action, a game which snapped their three-game losing skid. Meanwhile, Berea-Midpark was looking to get back in the win column after suffering a tough 31-27 defeat to Avon Lake a week prior, a game in which they blew a 21-10 lead in the third quarter. After a 4-1 start and 4 straight wins, Berea-Midpark went 2-3 in their last five games, finishing the regular season 6-4 and 4-3 in conference play. This game was the first-ever meeting between Berea-Midpark and St. Ignatius, and it was also the first-ever football playoff game hosted at Wasmer Field.
