But Baron's success is no accident because he maintains his focus and has an ingrained work ethic that is second to none. What is amazing is that he just started the sport four years ago and he has consistently stood out. As a freshman, he was named rookie of the year. As a sophomore, he earned most improved wrestler honors. Last season, he was recogn recognized as our team's most valuable wrestler. And this season, he has
040consistently ranked in the top 25 wrestlers in his weight class in division 1. Baron's dedication, growth, and leadership embody what it means to be a champion, and we are incredibly proud of him and all he has achieved.

Um pretty vanilla compared to some of the u policy meetings that I've been to when I was on that committee before. So um just to highlight a couple we did talk about in accept the um policies on religious excuse from uh class for um instruction there. A lot of job related expenses when and how tax exempt forms are used and by whom and when they can be reimbursed or not. Um a lot of re well not a lot a couple revisions to the grading and waiting of of grades within the uh high school. Uh we had one policy where we addressed the issue. We
043have no one at this point in time, but we we we will have the policy in place should we have any athletes that um are asked to use their name and their image and everything if they're um moving on in into the sports world. Um, and then the final one that I know some people might be waiting for, the age requirement to start school, mostly dealing with our kindergarten students. And we adjusted our policy uh within the uh OC code to say that the entrance day to kindergarten for the age of five is the first day when all students will be in attendance and it will be a learning session day for all students. That's the highlights. It was a again pretty vanilla compared to some of the um lengthy and uh rigorous um policies
044we've gone through in the past. >> Um just to give you update, our Twinsburg equity educational equity um committee met um I think that was last week and um that was a really good meeting. And I thought um for the first time we um did an application process kind of like what we did with our finance and building and grounds committee. We opened it up to all of community um to be able to join that and we took everyone who applied. Um and so um it was really great to have people join who really wanted to do the work in our district.
