‘The Voice’: What happened for The Bundys from Cincinnati? Jennie Key Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

It was go time for the Cincinnati Bundys, the ﬁ rst trio to ever compete on NBC's The Voice. Last Monday, The Bundys faced oﬀ against southern rocker Andrew Sevener of Team Blake, who performed Travis Tritt's "Modern Day Bonnie and Clyde." Battle coach Kelly Clarkson praised the trio's sibling harmonies. But it wasn't enough.

America voted for Sevener. Clarkson used her save to keep country rocker Abby Kasch in the competition to go on to the Top 24. She said she used her save because she didn't want to waste it in case the Bundys won. The Bundys said they were grateful and thanked Clarkson for her coaching. "What an amazing journey," the trio tweeted minutes after learning their journey was over. "@kelly_clarkson we are forever grateful to have been able to learn from you as a coach and as a per-

son. @NBCTheVoice thank you for trusting us to be the ﬁ rst trio. We had the time of our lives." Here's a look at their ﬁ nal performance on "The Voice."

Police District 5 HQ fund drained for Columbia Parkway landslide repair Hannah K. Sparling and Sharon Coolidge Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Columbia Parkway got its money. But it came at the expense – at least for now – of the new police District 5 headquarters. Cincinnati City Council voted last Wednesday night to take the entire $9.4 million from a fund initially set aside to build a new District 5 headquarters. The city will borrow the rest of the money for the $17 million Columbia Parkway ﬁ x. The vote was 8-0, with Councilman Chris Seelbach excused from the meeting. Details on a new police headquarters – where it will go and where the money will come from – will be worked out later. City Manager Patrick Duhaney pointed out the temporary facility in College Hill has a lease that lasts into 2021. District 5 serves Clifton Heights, University Heights, Fairview, Camp Washington, Clifton, Northside, Winton Hills, Winton Place, College Hill, and Mt. Airy. In 2015, the city replaced District 3

One year later, police are still working to ﬁ nd out who was driving the night a man was killed in a Colerain Township hit-and-run crash. On April 23, 2018, Timothy Newkirk, 33, was hit by a car, according to Colerain police. It happened around 3 a.m. while he was walking along Cheviot Road. Newkirk, police said, lay in a driveway motionless after he was hit until someone Newkirk who was passing by called 911 for help. He died at a nearby hospital. “His brain was just swelling too fast," said Roxanne Newkirk-Linn, Newkirk’s aunt. "There was nothing they could do.” The family says the past year has been painful, and the loss has been especially hard on Newkirk’s mother and his 10-year-old son. “His hugs were the best. I can still hear his laugh. He was always the life of the party," said Newkirk-Linn. "This has just devastated all of us. It has. There’s just something missing.” Police said the driver who hit Newkirk did not stop. “It’s so hard on all of us," said Newkirk-Linn. "I just don’t know how you can live with yourself.” Investigators found the car’s right passenger mirror near the scene, which helped them establish a vehicle description. “Toyota Camry between the year 97 and 2001, silver and grayish kind of color," said Newkirk-Linn. Police said Newkirk’s mother has been a huge help. They have followed up on every tip, but so far, nothing has panned out. Newkirk’s family has faith that one day the case will be closed. “We haven’t forgot him, and we’re not going to. We’re going to keep him out there," said NewkirkLinn. "We’re not going to give up.” The family’s plea to the public: if you have information, clear your conscience and help give the family some much-needed closure. “Just please come forward. Just saying something," said NewkirkLinn. "Give us some peace.” Family members said there is a $1,000 reward for information. If you know anything, call Colerain police.

Dan Hils, Fraternal Order of Police Lodge #69 president, said he's disappointed the District 5 fund is gone and he'll push council to ﬁ nd the money elsewhere to build a permanent station. “Police infrastructure has been neglected in this city for decades upon decades,” Hils said. “There was some hope after moving out of the Ludlow space that the city would make a new district a priority. Very disappointed that was a false hope.” But council members and Mayor John Cranley said they had no choice. “The question before us is, how do we deal with an actual emergency?” Cranley said. “Which is that Columbia Parkway is falling down, and we have to ﬁ x it. I think the time for talking is over, and I think the time for doing is now. And that requires making some tough choices.” Columbia Parkway has been a hotbed of landslides this spring, with the road frequently shut down for cleanup and repair. On March 20, city council declared the situation an emergency, saying they didn’t want to wake up to a fatality on the road. A week later, Mayor Cranley an-

nounced the repairs will cost $17 million and will require portions of the heavily traveled road to be shut down for the next two years. Council debated over how to fund the project, with members initially deadlocked over whether to take money from the police fund. The initial plan was to take $6.2 million from that fund, leaving $3.2 million for immediate repairs to the temporary police headquarters in College Hill. In the end, council agreed to drain the entire fund. No. 1, that means less borrowing for Columbia Parkway. And No. 2, there is an ongoing debate over whether the permanent police headquarters should be in College Hill or Clifton. Some members of council feared that leaving money for immediate repairs on the College Hill site would tip the scales too far toward that neighborhood without a true community engagement process. “Sometimes you have to lock everyone in a room, so to speak, until they get to a solution, which is what we got done last night," said Councilman Greg Landsman. “The Columbia Parkway ﬁ x is so important and urgent that any delay by us or the Administration is just unacceptable, and I’m fully committed to getting this ﬁ x done as quickly as possible.”

Raccoon euthanized after biting toddler tests negative for rabies Cameron Knight Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Memorial items are set out at the spot where Gabriella Christine Rodriguez, 15, a Western Hills University High School student, was killed after being struck last September by two vehicles on Harrison Avenue at the border of the South Fairmount and Westwood neighborhoods. ALBERT CESARE / THE ENQUIRER,

Cincinnati police target pedestrian safety Jeanne Houck Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Over-the-Rhine and Hyde Park are among 18 neighborhoods the Cincinnati Police Department is targeting in a traffi c-safety blitz enforcing pedestrian, aggressive driving and speeding laws through May 3. “(Cincinnati police) worked with neighborhood shareholders in all fi ve (police) districts to identify high visibility areas to improve traffi c safety using an integrated approach involving the three Es of safety: Education, Enforcement, and Engineering,” police said in a press release.

“The department will provide traffi c safety information to the public, as well as focused enforcement to curtail pedestrian accidents and fatalities. District traffi c cars will augment the eff orts of Traffi c Unit personnel in a coordinated blitz.” Cincinnati police said offi cers will monitor the busiest roads in the following neighborhoods: ❚ District One: Over-the-Rhine and the West End. ❚ District Two: Hyde Park and Pleasant Ridge. ❚ District Three: East Price Hill, Lower Price Hill, East Westwood and Westwood.

❚ District Four: Avondale, Bond Hill, Paddock Hills, Roselawn and Walnut Hills. ❚ District Five: Clifton Gaslight District, College Hill, Mount Airy, Northside and Winton Terrace. At least 428 pedestrians were hit by a vehicle in Cincinnati in 2018, according to an Enquirer analysis of police crash reports. Pedestrians continue to be injured or killed in the area. As recently as March 31, a 16-yearold-pedestrian from Delhi Township died after being struck by a car in Westwood.

A raccoon that bit a toddler in Green Township was not carrying rabies, health offi cials said Wednesday, April 17. The Green Township Fire Department was called out for the animal bite Saturday, April 13. Fire offi cials said the raccoon had bitten off a portion of the tip of a 2year-old girl's fi nger. The girl was taken to Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center. She has since returned home. Hamilton County Health Commissioner Tim Ingram said the raccoon, which was being kept as a pet, was euthanized so it could be tested for rabies. This is standard protocol for all mammal bites when there is no history of vaccinations. The Ohio Department of Health analyzed the remains determined the animal was not carrying the disease. The Ohio Department of Natural Resources says raccoons should never be kept as pets. Ingram says its moments like these where people can remember not to take for granted the public health programs that keep diseases in animals from spreading to human. He said through the diligence of the SPCA, vets and responsible owners vaccinating their pets, Hamilton County probably has not seen a rabid dog in more than half a century.

Prosecutor: ‘Professional assassin’ calls himself ‘Ghost’ Kevin Grasha Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

A man who police consider a professional assassin calls himself "Ghost," a prosecutor said Thursday. Styles Hummons was indicted last week in connection with an executionstyle killing last year and two other alleged plots, one of which Hamilton County Assistant Prosecutor David Prem said was stopped by police. Prem said Hummons, 31, "brags that he is the kind of guy, if there’s a target, he can pop up out of nowhere," and then disappear. One way he does that is to enlist the help of others, Prem said during an arraignment in Hamilton County Common Pleas Court. Among three others who have been charged along with Hummons is a 21year-old East Price Hill woman, Courtney Walters. Prem said Walters lured 29-year-old Brendan Phillips into a car, "under the guise that he was going on a date." Hummons then "executed" Phillips in the back of the car, he said. Phillips' body was found Feb. 16, 2018, in an alley in Mount Airy. "Mr. Hummons is known to police as a professional assassin," Prem said. At separate arraignments Thursday, Judge Leslie Ghiz set bond for Hummons at $2 million. He faces charges including murder, attempted murder and conspiracy. Walters Ghiz set bond for Walters, who also is charged with murder, at $1 million. Walters' attorney, Wilkes Ellsworth, said in court that his client has told authorities that "she had no idea that Mr. Hummons was going to do what he did." Hummons' attorney M.J. Hugan said prosecutors more than 10 years ago accused Hummons of being "an execu-

tioner," but a jury found him not guilty of murder and robbery charges. He had been charged in a 2007 shootout that left two people dead, including an alleged accomplice. In that incident, prosecutors said Hummons used an assault-style weapon. He was found guilty of a gun charge, records show, and sentenced to ﬁ ve years in prison. Few details have been revealed about the other two plots. Prem said police were able to stop one, and a victim was

shot and wounded in the other. Tratez Mackey, 26, is accused of plotting with Hummons and others, between March and April Mackey 18 of this year, to kill someone. Police found two guns in Mackey's home, Prem said. In the third plot, court documents say that in 2018 Hummons and Donell Woods attempted to kill another person,

luring him to the crime scene. Prem said the target as well as Hummons were shot and wounded during the attack. Jail documents say Woods Woods, 33, of Colerain Township, "arranged and implemented a murder for hire." Ghiz set bond for Mackey, of North College Hill, at $1 million. Woods' bond was set at $1.5 million.

Report: US billed $2 million for Otto Warmbier’s medical care by North Korea Sarah Brookbank and Cameron Knight Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

North Korea sent a $2 million bill for Otto Warmbier's medical bills when he was released from captivity in 2017, according to the Washington Post. Warmbier, a 21-year-old college student from Wyoming, died shortly after being returned to his family after 15 months in captivity in North Korea. According to the Washington Post, "the main U.S. envoy sent to retrieve Warmbier signed an agreement to pay the medical bill on instructions passed down from President Trump, according to two people familiar with the situation. They spoke on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the matter publicly." According to the Washington Post: "The bill went to the Treasury Department, where it remained — unpaid — throughout 2017, the people said. However, it is unclear whether the Trump administration later paid the bill, or whether it came up during preparations for Trump’s two summits with Kim Jong Un," the Post reported. In the article, the Washington Post said North Korean oﬃ cials handed the U.S. envoy a bill for $2 million, "insisting he sign an agreement to pay it before they would allow him to take Warmbier home."

In June 2017, the North Korean government released Otto Warmbier, but he returned to Cincinnati with a massive brain injury that had left him blind, deaf and unable to move under his own power. He died June 19, 2017, at 21. SAM GREENE/THE ENQUIRER

Warmbier's parents, through their attorney, declined a request for comment on Thursday. According to the Post, the envoy sent

to pick up Warmbier called then-Secretary of State Rex Tillerson and told him about the bill and Tillerson called Trump. Then the envoy was told to sign

the bill, the Post reported. Warmbier was ending a visit to North Korea in January 2016 when authorities arrested him at the airport in the capital city of Pyongyang. Three weeks later, Warmbier delivered a stilted “confession” to stealing a poster from a hotel. In March 2016, Warmbier was convicted in a show trial of crimes against the state and sentenced to 15 years at hard labor. U.S. oﬃ cials had counseled his family to keep silent over as Warmbier’s parents waited for an end to his ordeal. For 15 months, the family heard nothing. In June 2017, the North Korean government released Otto Warmbier, but he returned to Cincinnati with a massive brain injury that had left him blind, deaf and unable to move under his own power. He died June 19, 2017, at 21. In December, a U.S. District Court awarded Warmbier’s family $500 million dollars in a lawsuit against North Korea. The family had requested more than $1 billion, but the judge did not grant the full amount. Judge Beryl Howell ruled that North Korea was liable for the torture, hostage-taking, and extrajudicial killing of Otto Warmbier and the injuries to his mother and father. Fred Warmbier, Otto’s father, told the Washinton Post he had never been told about the hospital bill, but said it sounded like a “ransom” for his late son.

Trump: ‘No money was To remember Warmbier, Portman wears OTTO paid to North Korea T-shirt at DMZ in S. Korea for Otto Warmbier’ Carl Weiser Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

President Trump on Friday denied his administration paid any money to North Korea for Otto Warmbier, the Ohio student who was held prisoner and returned to the U.S. in a coma. Trump tweeted: "No money was paid to North Korea for Otto Warmbier, not two Million Dollars, not anything else." He went on to criticize the Obama administration, Trump was responding to a report Thursday from the Washington Post that N. Korea billed the U.S. $2 million for Warmbier's medical care. According to the Washington Post, "the main U.S. envoy sent to retrieve Warmbier signed an agreement to pay

the medical bill on instructions passed down from President Trump, according to two people familiar with the situation. They spoke on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the matter publicly." "The bill went to the Treasury Department, where it remained – unpaid – throughout 2017, the people said. However, it is unclear whether the Trump administration later paid the bill, or whether it came up during preparations for Trump’s two summits with Kim Jong Un," the Post reported. Warmbier, a 21-year-old college student from the Cincinnati suburb of Wyoming, died shortly after being returned to his family after 15 months in captivity in North Korea.

In this March 16, 2016, ﬁ le photo, American student Otto Warmbier, center, is escorted at the Supreme Court in Pyongyang, North Korea. The death of Warmbier, who fell into a coma after being arrested in North Korea, has raised questions about whether his tour agency was adequately prepared for its trips into the hard-line communist state. The Young Pioneer Tours agency built up a business attracting young travelers with cut-rate, hard-partying adventures into one of the world’s most isolated countries. JON CHOL JIN/AP

Republican Sen. Rob Portman of Ohio wore a T-shirt with the name of Otto Warmbier during a recent stop at the Demilitarized Zone of the Korean Peninsula. The shirt aimed to memorialize his young Wyoming constituent who was arrested in January 2016 while a visit to North Korea, held incommunicado for 15 months then was returned to Cincinnati paralyzed and blind. He died in June 2017. Portman traveled to South Korea with a congressional delegation visiting East Asia to talk about trade and other issues. The delegation visited the DMZ, the line between the Koreas, and Portman wore an olive-green Tshirt with OTTO displayed across an American fl ag. In a statement released from his offi ce, the senator said: “I could not help but think of Otto Warmbier and his family. Otto has been at the front of my mind while I’ve been here, and I’ve made clear to South Korean government offi cials that we must never forget him. “I also met with a North Korean defector to hear more about what it’s like inside North Korea and the country’s human rights abuses,” Portman’s statement said. “As our dialogue with North Korea continues, part of those discussions must be about North Korea’s human rights abuses and how they must change.” Warmbier was a University of Virginia student visiting North Korea when he was detained and put through a show trial for stealing a poster from a hotel. He was sentenced to 15 years at hard labor. A few days later, all contact ceased, and Portman worked with Warmbier’s family to pursue what had happened to him. The North Korean government released Warmbier in June 2017, and Portman accompanied him on the last leg of the trip home. The North Korean government said it was releasing

Warmbier in a humanitarian gesture. Doctors examining Warmbier at the University of Cincinnati Medical Center determined that he had suﬀ ered serious brain damage. He died six days later. The North Korean government attributed Warmbier's condition to botulism poisoning. His family said they believe he was tortured to death. His parents, Fred and Cindy Warmbier, are seeking to collect a $500 million legal judgment that they won late last year against the government of North Korea for Warmbier's wrongful death. President Trump had frequently mentioned Warmbier's name and took credit for winning Warmbier's release. The president then held two summit meetings with the North Korean leader, Kim Jong Il, and after the second in February, the president said he did not hold Kim responsible for Warmbier's death. In response, Portman said the United States could not let Kim "oﬀ the hook" for Warmbier's treatment.

Sports Rooks returns to lead Wyoming basketball Scott Springer Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

WYOMING – As the classic rock hit by The Who goes, "Meet the new boss, same as the old boss" (Won't Get Fooled Again, 1971). Pending board approval, Wyoming High School shouldn't be fooled as known commodity Matt Rooks has been selected to take over the Cowboys basketball program. "I'm very excited to come back to a place that we really, really liked and my family enjoyed," Rooks said. "It's a great

community with great kids, families, and administration. We feel lucky and blessed we get another chance to be a part of this as a head coach." Rooks, now 39, was previously Wyoming's head coach from 2012-2014, inheriting a team that was 2-19 and leading them to records of 13-11 and 22-4. His last Wyoming squad lost in the tournament in Dayton to Thurgood Marshall and featured Cowboy greats Ahmad Frost and Mason Rogers. However, it also contained building blocks for the future with freshmen Jake Edmonds, Garyn Prater and Lonnie Grayson.

Rooks would be named Cincinnati Hills League Coach of the Year that season and then was oﬀ ered the Lakota West job by former Wyoming AD Scott Kaufman. In the meantime, Tim Edmonds who came from Moeller with Rooks in 2012 was picked by new Cowboys AD Jan Wilking and with that 2014 foundation led Wyoming to a 101-20 record in ﬁ ve seasons, including three CHL coach of the year awards. Since current Boston Red Sox star Andrew Benintendi left Madeira, Wyoming has had the player of the year every year since 2014 with Frost winning

one, Grayson the next three and Joey Edmonds the next two. Rooks found tough sledding in the Greater Miami Conference with Lakota West with his best season being a 16-9 ﬁ nish in 2016. For family reasons, he stepped aside after four seasons but returned to assist his former assistant last fall as Wyoming went undefeated in the CHL and 22-2 overall.

Colerain’s Deshawn Pace commits to Cincinnati John Snodgrass Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

The University of Cincinnati added a fi fth member to its 2020 football recruiting class, Saturday, April 20. Colerain defensive back Deshawn Pace announced his verbal commitment to his hometown team via Twitter. Pace becomes the fi rst Cincinnati-area player in the Bearcats' 2020 class. The 6-foot-3, 195-pound three-star prospect is ranked as the No. 55 player overall in Ohio's '20 class per 247sports.com's composite rankings. The same site also ranks Pace as a top-80 safety in the country. Pace was named fi rst-team all-Greater Miami Conference in both his sophomore and junior seasons. This past fall he was a major part of the Cardinals' state runner-up season. He accounted for 67 tackles (36 solo), a forced fumble, three fumble recoveries, two interceptions and a half sack. During his sophomore season he broke onto the scene with 52 tackles (30 solo), a fumble recovery and four interceptions including a 30-yard pick-six. Pace was named second-team all-

district as a sophomore and honorable mention all-district this past season. Deshawn is the younger brother of Ivan Pace Jr. Ivan, a Miami RedHawks signee, was named the Division I defensive player of the year this past season and was honored as the boys athlete of the year at Thursday night's Greater Cincinnati Sports Awards. Deshawn Pace's commitment adds to

what 247sports.com ranks as the top recruiting class in the American Athletic Conference. Pace joins Xenia oﬀ ensive guard Gavin Gerhardt, Lexington (KY) Frederick Douglass corner back Devin Neal and oﬀ ensive tackles Kobe McAllister (Ringgold, GA) and John Williams (Bollingbrook, IL) as members of the Bearcats' '20 class.

Andrew Coverdale, the off ensive coordinator for Kentucky’s Trinity High School’s football team for 17 seasons, confi rmed last Wednesday he has accepted the same position at Cincinnati St. Xavier High School. Coverdale was Trinity’s off ensive coordinator from 1999-2002 and from 2006-18. He spent three seasons (2003-05) as the head coach at Castle (Indiana) before returning to Trinity for his second stint. Coverdale said he Coverdale and Cincinnati St. X coach Steve Specht are longtime friends. “He and I have stayed in touch through the years and swapped a lot of ideas,” Coverdale said Wednesday while house shopping in Cincinnati. “He was in the process of rebuilding his off ensive staff and reached out to see if I was interested.” Coverdale said a teaching position at Cincinnati St. X recently opened, leading to the interview process that ultimately resulted in him landing the position. Coverdale, 48, joined the Trinity staff under head coach Kevin Wright in 1999 and was retained by Bob Beatty when he took over in 2000. As off ensive coordinator, Coverdale helped the Shamrocks win 11 state championships during his time at Trinity. He's co-authored several books about the passing game and is a coveted speaker at football clinics. “Trinity won championships two out of the three years (I was at Castle), so I think I understand the honor of stepping into that stewardship and that Trinity High School is bigger than any of us,” Coverdale said. “I’d like to think that at the end of it I’ll be viewed as a good steward of what I was given. “Bob brought in a tremendous system, and he allowed me to work with it and help evolve it. It’s highly unusual for an assistant to have that much latitude on the high school level.” The relationship between Beatty and Coverdale has been the subject of speculation for years and reached its peak in 2008 after a somewhat infaSee COVERDALE, Page 2B

Findlay, Rooks has moved up in the seating chart again to lead the Cowboys again. "I'm sure he (Tim Edmonds) will be back watching some games and practices, but I know they have a lot of traveling to do watching their sons play, which he should," Rooks said. Rooks resides in Wyoming but still teaches in the Lakota District. The Cowboys lost just three seniors oﬀ the roster, but one was Joey Edmonds, a four-year starter. "Tim and I came in and had a vision for this program," Rooks said. "Obviously I left and went to West and he kept it going. For me to get the opportunity to come back and keep it going is an honor." Much heralded football recruit Evan Prater of the defending Division IV state champion Cowboys will be central to the success of Rooks and company. Like many of the Cowboys, Prater was on the hardwood a few days later, taking Wyoming from 15-0 in football to 14-0 in CHL hoops. Prater led the team in scoring at 17.3 points per game as Edmonds often

garnered extra attention. He also grabbed 7.5 rebounds per game, blocked 1.8 shots and shot nearly 56 percent from the fi eld. "Evan's going to be a big part of what we're doing next year," Rooks said. "Wright State off ered him (for basketball) and I believe a few others from the Horizon League. Everyone knows football is his path. His senior year in football and basketball are going to be even better." In addition to Prater, Wyoming should return starters Isaiah Walker, Deante Gray and Elijah McGee with added help from Harrison Shepherd and Camden O'Gara. As usual, there are some upcoming young stallions also waiting at the gate. "We watch a lot of the junior high games," Rooks said. "The eighth-grade class I believe was 15-1 and very talented. We're bringing back a lot of guys from last year's team. There will be a few changes in what we do. The team takes on the personality of the coach. We're going to be the tough team that's going to guard and play defense and attack both off ensively and defensively." Meanwhile, Rooks is adding to his own stable as he and his wife have a freshman son, girls ages 6, 5 and 3 and a baby due in August.

mous shouting match between the two during a practice was caught on tape by NFL Films cameras for a show it produced for CBS. Coverdale said last Wednesday too much was made of that incident. Beatty was not immediately available for comment. “Passion always results in conﬂ ict, and conﬂ ict is healthy,” Coverdale said. “It means you care enough about each other to work through the conversation and decide on what’s best for the kids. … “We have a phenomenal relationship

that grew and fl ourished. I think we made each other better. We had healthy confl ict from time to time, but I wouldn’t say it was regular. It was very occasional. I’d like to think the results speak for themselves as far as the level of kids and the results we produced. I couldn’t have asked for a better boss.” In a text message, Trinity athletic director Rob Saxton wrote that Beatty "is evaluating football coaching staff needs as we do in every off -season and will decide how to handle this transition as a part of that process."

SCHOOL NEWS Mt. Healthy City Schools teaching STEM/STEAM in each of the buildings Students in each of the Mt. Healthy elementary buildings have been using Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) and Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math (STEAM) curriculums to further the academic successes in classrooms. Mrs. Robin McGinnis is leading the charge using STEM/STEAM activities in by showing the elementary teachers how to incorporate “STEM Challenges” into their everyday activities and current curriculums. Additionally, Veronica Dean has included noteworthy amounts of Engineering and Technology lessons into the Science classes and curriculums in addition to leading the M2SE Club at the Jr/Sr High School. Several grants were received through Greater Cincinnati STEM Collaborative for 3D Printing and a Bicycle Club. These clubs were afterschool extracurricular oﬀ ered for students in grades 3-6. Two third grade teachers, Kacie Lucas and Brittany Hashemi, from South Elementary held the 3D printing club from January through March for grades 3-5, and Joe Ohrdandsky and Charlie Vample led the Bicycle Club at North Elementary for sixth grade students. Additionally, students in the ACHIEVE program also have increased opportunities with STEM curriculum through speciﬁ c projects. The district’s strategic plan, Education Destination, emphasizes a goal to increase knowledge and engage students through Project Based Learning

and STEM learning, which has been implemented throughout this school year. STEM Challenges are the projects in which Mrs. McGinnis and other teachers are executing in the classroom that follow the appropriate gradelevel curriculum and the Ohio Teaching Standards. Not only are the challenges meeting the standards and the district’s Education Destination plan, they set the parameters and criteria for learning, they follow rubrics and set expectations for student engagement, and they provide authentic learning for students. Examples of challenges include: a. Index Card Structural Design, which was implemented in grades 2 through 12. Students created structures using only index cards. Their structures were multileveled and depended on a balanced design. Students used an engineering design process with questioning the process, trial and error, and an answer and evaluation of their structures. It was determined that a triangular structures had the most success. b. Rollercoasters were designed and built in grades 3 through 5 and introduced the terms and properties of kinetic and potential energy. The challenges used only a marble, tape, and Styrofoam tubing and had to be free standing as well as include a loop and a hill in the design. c. Most recently 3rd graders have been creating robots or scribble bots. While this challenge is quite technical, the teachers have been addressing it in small steps while also teaching the vocabulary and helping the students understand

They have built sink and fl oat sail boats using cork, toothpicks, rubber bands, and paper, which is teaching the students about wind and air to power a structure. e. Students in the ACHIEVE program recently completed a Marshmallow Challenge where they designed and built a spaghetti structure that could hold the weight of marshmallows. They have also built bridges using toothpick and hot glue. These challenges help them by using the mathematics lessons they have learned like

distance, volume, length, capacity, as well as physics lessons. Mrs. McGinnis explains, “These challenges allow our students to be very engaged in learning, even our most reluctant learners are engaged.” As she describes the challenges, “There is no prescribed end product, no one right answer. How students choose to go about it is up to them. They have to experience the trial and error as this how we learn and grow.” The future for this program is bright as students are driving the learning process and many teachers are seeing the advantages to teaching using Project Based Learning and hands on learning. The Teaching and Learn-

ing Coordinators are working closely with the junior high and high school teachers to develop an updated curriculum that includes more of the Project Based Learning methodologies as well as 3D printing and the 5E Model of Teaching (Engage, Explain, Explore, Evaluate, and Elaborate). Missy Knight

Study: Ft. Thomas is the safest Ky city What other local communities made the list? Sheila Vilvens Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

When it comes to safe places to live, work and play, the Cincinnati area is home to several. Four local communities landed in the top 10 of SafeHome.org’s safest cities list. Fort Thomas is the safest city in Kentucky followed closely by Independence at No. 2. Erlanger landed at No. 5, according to the list. In Ohio, Dublin took the top spot but Miami Township in Clermont County came in third followed by West Chester at No. 10. While not a city, Miami Township has its own police department and is a fastgrowing community in Clermont County. Township Administrator Jeﬀ Wright took to Twitter to celebrate his community's safety status. "Thank you @MiamiTwpPD and all of our outstanding and respectable citizens," he wrote.

Couple charged with having sex on SkyStar Wheel plead not guilty Jennifer Edwards Baker Fox19

Erica Slone walks in Tower Park near the Fort Thomas Division of the Cincinnati VA Medical Center. Fort Thomas was recently listed as the safest city in Kentucky by SafeHome.org. THE ENQUIRER/AMANDA ROSSMANN

For its rankings, SafeHome looked at communities with populations of at least 42,000 and considered several factors including FBI crime statistics. They also looked at the number of law enforcement oﬃ cers compared to the

population. Several other Cincinnati area communities landed in the top 15. Fairﬁ eld came in at No. 11 followed by Union Township, Clermont County, at No. 12. Colerain Township was ranked No. 14.

The couple charged with having sex on SkyStar Wheel pleaded not guilty and are under a court order to stay away from the ride. Michael Mathisen, 30, and Lauren Wilder, 31, are accused of being intoxicated and having sex in front of children and parents on the observation wheel along the banks of the Ohio River in Downtown Cincinnati. The incident occurred along East Freedom Way at The Banks overlooking the city and Ohio River on Opening Day March 28. Mathisen, 30, of Florence, and Wilder, 31, of North College Hill, are both charged with public indecency. The case returns to court May 9 at 9 a.m. Enquirer media partner Fox19 provided this report.

Prison for man caught with $46K for Colorado weed Cameron Knight Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

A Hamilton County man will spend the next year in prison after he was caught with more than $46,000 en route to Colorado to buy marijuana, oﬃ cials said. Julian Solorza was arrested after his car was searched by the Kansas Highway Patrol in November 2017 during a

traﬃ c stop. The 37-yearold has recent addresses in Woodlawn and Greenhills. The troopers found $46,828 in 41 separate banded bundles and two Solorza empty suitcases with traces of marijuana inside. Oﬃ cials said Solorza admitted the money was made selling marijuana and that he was on his way to Colorado to

buy more. The cash was seized and Solorza said he was guilty of money laundering as part of a plea deal in December 2018. After prison, Solorza will be supervised for two years. In Hamilton County, Solorza has multiple convictions for traﬃ cking cocaine and an open assault case in which police said he attacked a rideshare driver, according to court records.
