Threats at Lebanon High
On Wednesday, May 14, a Lebanon High School student made threats toward another student serious enough to land him in jail. School officials say their policy won’t let them disclose any details, like if there was a weapon involved or in what manner the threat was made. Is this a good policy, or should they be more open?

Little Miami levy fails
The Little Miami school levy failed by a margin of 58 to 42 percent. What should the district do now? Can they pass a property tax levy in this economic climate, or should they try for an earned income tax again like they asked for in November?
