The Xenia Area Young Professionals (XAYP) recently donated $270 to the District and will be used for the Positive Behavior Intervention and Support Program (Anti-Bullying and Social Skills Program).  The XAYP raised the funds by hosting a corn hole tournament.  This was held in conjunction with the May First Friday in downtown Xenia.  The fourth grade students of Mrs. Lewis' class at Arrowood Elementary decorated anti-bullying posters that were hung in the patio area where the tournament took place.  It was a great night for a great cause!

On Saturday, April 27, the Xenia Community Schools Foundation (XCSF) presented the 15th Annual Hall of Honor Induction Ceremony & Dinner at Xenia High School.

Attendees joined XCSF and Presenting Sponsor, Greene Memorial & Soin Hospitals, in celebrating the accomplishments of the 2013 Hall of Honor inductees: John F. “Rick” Williamson (Class of 1966); Lt. Col. Stephen P. McIlvaine (Class of 1990) and Dr. Jenene R. Washington-Stepter (Class of 1991).
