The annual Boardman High School Holiday Jazz Concert will take place on Thursday, December 19 at 7 PM in the Boardman Performing Arts Center.

Boardman’s  3 jazz ensembles will perform a mix of holiday selections and some standard jazz pieces. Admission is Free --a Holiday Gift from Boardman Local Schools!

The Spartans opened the season with a dramatic comeback against Canton Glenoak.  After trailing by 15 at halftime, and as many as 22, the Spartans chipped away at Glenoak's lead and came back to win 70-68--With a final free throw in the last seconds of the game.  Check out the video of the final shots, as Boardman's team bursts into excitement after the buzzer.

A big THANK YOU to Sam Boak, of Boak and Sons Inc.! He delivered $500 worth of art supplies to Robinwood Lane Elementary Dec. 2.  Boak &Sons sponsored a Holiday Coloring Contest for all Boardman 1st graders, and the Grand Prize winner was Maurelius Green. He recieved a $25 dollar Handel's gift card and accepted the supplies on Robinwood's TV station as the entire school watched.

Glenwood Junior HIgh is enjoying new water filling stations and helping the environment at the same time!  It's all thanks to a grant from the National Wildlife Federation's "School Climate Solutions Challenge."  Eight new fountains  replace the current ones with a total grant of $6,000.

The first guest was November 14. Dr. Kyle Muir, a chiropractor who recently opened his practice in Boardman, used models of vertebrae and skeletons to talk about what his job entails.
