Meet Aleena Davis, Marion Harding's 80th homecoming queen
The Marion Harding High School student body elected its 80th homecoming queen and king this year. This year Aleena Davis, a senior at Harding, won the honor of homecoming queen. Davis is a catcher for Harding's varsity softball team, recently joined the school swim team, participates in show choir, and is on Varsity H Council and Teen Institute, a program where teens encourage their peers to live a drug-free life. She also works a part-time job at 7 Brew. She stays busy. With all of her involvement at school and her extracurriculars, Davis knew she'd be a good candidate for queen. "I feel like I'm very involved in Harding and that I'm a good representative," Davis said. After learning she was nominated, Davis went to work asking friends and acquaintances at the school to vote for her. A few ballots later, Davis learned she won. Her mom said the win brought on tears from the shock. "Since sophomore year, I was like 'I want to be queen,'" Davis said. After she graduates, she hopes to attend Ohio State University to study broadcast and one day become a meteorologist. She's already started practicing by giving the weather forecast during the morning

Ramaswamy pressed on public school funding in Wauseon
WAUSEON — Larry Zimmerman, the president of Wauseon’s school board, had an emergency meeting at 4 p.m. Monday about the school district’s levy on the November ballot. Then at 7 p.m., the school district held a meeting to share more information about the levy. However, instead of attending the school district’s meeting, Mr. Zimmerman sat in the front row of Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 7424 with a question for Republican gubernatorial candidate Vivek Ramaswamy. “What is your administration’s plan to fully fund public schools?” Mr. Zimmerman asked the candidate. “Because school choice in northwest Ohio is the public school system, and our schools are not the ones that are failing our students. Our schools are getting better and have gotten better.” Mr. Ramaswamy was in Wauseon on Monday with his running mate, state Sen. President Rob McColley (R., Napoleon), and the Republican nominee for Ohio’s 9th congressional district, Derek Merrin. The candidate thanked Mr. Zimmerman for the question and said he believes the current system penalizes schools that are doing well while rewarding those that are doing worse. “This is an example of where I expect to work with people in both parties,” Mr. Ramaswamy said. “There’s bipartisan support
