Students had a great time at yesterday's Minecraft Camp. Special thanks to Katrina Moore of the ESC for planning and putting on the Camp, Leetonia Local Schools for hosting the Camp, and high school students Ethan Moore, Addy Sell, & Toby Sell. These students attended one of the first Minecraft Camps back in 2016 and came back to provide Minecraft help and support!





Congratulations to Beaver Local 8th grader Shaylynn Dennis who made it to the Semifinals of the Scripps National Spelling Bee, finishing tied for 22nd place! She correctly spelled "pruitus," "compathy," "minometer," and "emanation" before misspelling "incretory" in the 6th round. What a great accomplishment!


Check out the Salem News article about the Columbiana County Spelling Bee champ, Shaylynn Dennis.
