Kailey Ague Wins Franklin B. Walter All-Scholastic Award
Congratulations to Liberty senior Kailey Ague for winning the Franklin B. Walter All-Scholastic Award. Kailey was nominated among 19 other Trumbull County seniors!
Kailey serves as the cheerleader and dance line captain. She is a two-year member of the Big Brothers Big Sisters program and a senior member of the National Honor Society. Outside of school, Kailey dedicates time to helping those in need and working with the Young Women With Bright Futures program.
The Franklin B. Walter All-Scholastic Award was created in 1990 by the Ohio Education Service Center Association (OESCA) to honor Franklin B. Walter, one of our past Ohio State Superintendents, and to recognize one top student scholar from each county in Ohio. Franklin B. Walter served as state superintendent from March 1977 until August 1991.
After graduation, Kailey plans on attending Youngstown State University for psychology with plans to obtain a master's degree in school psychology. “I always wanted to be a teacher; psychology would give me the same schedule and provide more one-on-one and individual support; I want to be able to provide kids with the best possible learning opportunities,” said Kailey.
The scholarship will award Kailey with a $2,500.00 scholarship from the Trumbull County Educational Service Center Governing Board.
Right To Read Week!
Kindergarten, first-grade, and second-grade Liberty students had a special visitor on March 6th as part of the district's Right to Read Week celebration. The Mahoning Valley Scrappers' mascot, Scrappy, and the team's general manager, Heather Sahli, read "Riley's Really Big Hit" to the students. Riley, who loves two things: science and baseball, displayed his genius when discussing the solar system, constellations, and all things robotic. Thanks to the Scrappers organization for making this experience special for our students.
