Summary
Board honored Elyria High students who finished first statewide in the University of Cincinnati stock market game and recognized Beau Brillhart for a county recycling initiative that earned third place and gifted a science-yard item to the school.
The Elyria City Board of Education used part of its meeting to recognize student accomplishments at Elyria High School.
Board members invited Brett Lehi and his students to the front to receive a certificate for finishing first among Ohio high schools in the University of Cincinnati stock market game. A speaker told the room the winning team placed first out of 351 teams and, according to the meeting transcript, the team had about $20,000 in paper gains over a seven-week period.
The board also recognized Beau Brillhart for leading a schoolwide plastic-bag recycling initiative that earned third place in the Lorain County Solid Waste Management District’s challenge and resulted in a gift to Elyria High School’s Science Courtyard.
Superintendent Anne Slosch and board members praised athletic and extracurricular achievements more broadly, noting girls’ wrestling placed fifth in state duels and other recent student successes. Superintendent and board members also previewed upcoming events, including a Special Olympics craft fair and an April production of Cinderella.
The recognitions were formal and ceremonial; no formal votes were required to present certificates.
