David Schaef update: (12/05/23)

I spoke with David yesterday. He had just arrived at the Encompass Health Rehabilitation Hospital in Erie.

There are still a couple of issues to resolve, and David is optimistic that Encompass has the skills. We didn't speak much of medicine and health, most of the conversation was about our subscribers and the Community News newspaper.

I was much encouraged by the tone of his voice and the idea he was interested in talking about Community News. So, he’s at that, “I want to get back to work” stage of healing.

He talked about his subscribers and a letter he is composing for them. He talked about how to proceed with the newspaper when he gets home.

He said he hopes to be home in 2 weeks.


Thank You all for your Love and Prayers and Well Wishes.

Conneaut School District students begin the 2017 - 2018 school year on Wednesday, August 30, as do the rest of Crawford County schools, a full day for all.

Students numbers in Conneaut should hover around the 2,000 student mark with the last week or so, a number of families signing up new students with numbers remaining to be seen as the district has been in declining enrollment for a number of years.

End of 2017 year figures showed 1,979 students in the district. In 2007-08 end of year figures showed 2,664 students.

Several new teachers have been hired to replace the retiring Ellen Aurand, Vo-ag, Lori Putman, gifted; Karen Sutliff, kindergarten; Gail Wilhelm, Denise Carter, and Donna Drelick.
