Re: Holding a kid back, does it help??

I’ll be honest, as an educator I think it’s more important to consider the student. If there are no academic/developmental problems, then I am 100% against it. While I get why people do it, I don’t really support it. If the student is held back because of academic, maturity/behavioral issues, then b...

That’s not true. I have a July birthday, so I was 6 all of 1st grade.

Oak Hill v. Green Cancelled?

I was looking at Joe Eitel's site the other day and saw that the OH v Green game had been cancelled, but have not saw anything about why it was.
Anybody have any insight?

Re: WK10 (4-5) Chesapeake @ (5-4) Fairland

It is my understanding that Chesapeake still has several key injuries affecting them. Hate to hear that some of those seniors will miss their final game of their senior season. However, I believe this will swing things more in favor of the Dragons. That being said...not sad about it. BTP!!!! Dragons...

Re: Best Bands in Area?

Fairland has a great band. They have been invited to perform at the OMEA All-State Conference in Cleveland this coming year.
They also have a lot of students selected to the All-County and All-District bands each year.

Re: Fairland (5-3) @ Coal Grove (7-1)

I wish I could go to this game in person, but will definitely be following along on the radio.

Full respect for the Hornets and their program, but I think the Dragons add another 'W' in the column.

Re: Wk 8: Portsmouth @ Fairland

This should be a great game, and as cliche as it sounds, I think it will come down to which team has the last possession of the ball. I agree with those folks assessing this will be a shootout. Both teams have played some tough games, and the Trojans have had some tough losses (see the Coal Grove (l...

Close game that comes down to the 4th quarter, and Fairland holds on to get an important 'W' at home.

Re: WK4 (3-0) Waverly @ (1-2) Fairland

Has Fairland's facility been updated in the last 30 years? I saw the Tigers lose to the Dragons at Fairland's back in the late 1980's. The field was rough grass, the lights poor, and the stands looked run down. No knock on Fairland though as money is always scarce. They have added aluminum bleacher...

Re: WK4 (3-0) Waverly @ (1-2) Fairland

The momentum from the Ironton game combined with playing at Mayo for the first time this season may be the extra boost the Dragons need to grab another win. Waverly is a tough team, and it won't be easy, but my big green heart believes they can make it happen.

Re: Fairland(27) @ (21)Ironton

Congratulations to Coach Cunningham and Co., y'all showed a lot of grit and the reward of playing tough is coming to fruition. Keep up the good work, gentlemen! It's GREAT to be a FAIRLAND DRAGON!

Best of luck to the Tigers on the rest of the way. May your season be injury free.

Wow! I thought Grove would win, but I didn't expect Buffalo to get blown out like that.
They're typically a Class A playoff team over here.

Re: OHSAA officially sponsors boys and girls lacrosse staring this year

I think this will be more popular around the C's (Cincy, Cleveland, Columbus) especially at the private schools and the larger schools. I do think it could catch on in SEO as well, especially if it is sponsored as a Spring sport. There are several "club" teams at schools in my district, so...
