We received many fantastic nominations this year.  The selection committee, which consists of select SST and  ESC of Lorain County staff, as well as local school district staff, had the difficult task of choosing the recipients.

 

 This year's recipient of the Franklin B. Walter Outstanding Educator Award was awarded to Bethany Shaw of Midview Middle School.  She was recognized for her achievement during the end of the year assembly at Midview Middle School on June 6, 2019 as well as further recognized at an awards luncheon provided by the Ohio Coalition for the Education of Students with Disabilities in Columbus on June 11, 2019.

 

 

 

 

Joseph Schultz, a recent North Ridgeville City Schools graduate, was the 2019 recipient of the R. A. Horn Outstanding Student Achievement Award.  Joe volunteered in the district's transportation department as a student.  The district decided to hire him full time to continue to serve in this capacity. He was recognized by SST 2 for his achievement during North Ridgeville's Senior Award's Banquet on May 24, 2019.  He was further recognized by the Ohio Coalition for the Education of Children with Disabilities at an award's luncheon in Columbus on June 11, 2019.
