McCormick School Recommended for National Register of Historic Places Members of the Ohio Historic Site Preservation Advisory Board voted Friday, April 8 to recommend that the state historic preservation officer nominate McCormick School in Huron, Ohio to be listed on the National Register of Historic Places by the National Park Service along with four other Ohio properties. Located at 325 Ohio St., Mc-
Cormick School, formerly known as Huron School, is a striking Art Moderne building. Built in 1943, it was the first concrete school in Ohio and has been in continuous use as a school building by the Huron Board of Education Art Moderne, although quite common style of architecture in the late 1930s, was rarely used for public building and was especially rare for schools.
The building was designed Harold Parker, an architect in Sandusky, Ohio, who designed other notable building in the area, including the Register-Star News Building in 1920, the Commercial Banking and Trust Company building in 1924 Strobel Athletic Field and Stadium in 1937 and Madison Elementary School in 1939. If the National Park Service,
the agency that administers the program, agrees that the school meets the criteria for listing, it will be added to the National Register of Historic Places. The final decision to add a property to the register comes about 90 days after the National Register nomination is formally submitted to the park service by the Ohio Historic Preservation Office.

Schools Donate to Dunn Family As many people know, on March 19, 2011, an area police officer lost his life in the line of duty. A young family is forced to move forward and face many challenges without their loved one. Huron City Schools wanted to show their support to the Dunn family by participating in a series of grade level appropriate fundraisers. Huron High School, McCormick Junior High, Woodlands Intermediate and Shawnee Elementary School together raised over $2,786.00 for the Dunn Family Education Fund. The National Honor Society at Huron High School organized a Coin War between the different grade levels at the high school. Coins carried a positive value and paper dollars carried a negative value in the contest. During the lunch periods, freshmen, sophomores, juniors and seniors could put coins in their own buckets but paper dollars in their classmate’s buckets to offset their totals. Final results: senior’s $372, junior’s $218, sophomore’s $208, freshmen $201 with a grand total for the school

Shred Your Personal Documents for Free and Dispose of Unwanted Prescription Drugs CHIEF JOHN T. MAJOY On Saturday, April 30, the Huron Police Department will be hosting two community policing events for Huron residents. First, there will be a free “shredding” event for residents and businesses of Huron. We will be bringing in a truck with a large shredding machine that will destroy all personal papers and documents. The machine will hold up to eight tons of paper and we are hoping to fill it up completely. All paper that is destroyed will be recycled. This is a great way to help protect your identity and properly destroy any documents containing personal information. This event will be from 9:00 a.m. until Noon at the Huron Boat Basin.

Next, we are also working in conjunction with the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) in a national “drug take-back” initiative encouraging citizens to turn in old prescription medications that are unused, unwanted or expired. Residents can bring unused, unwanted or expired prescription medications to the boat basin where officers will assist in their proper disposal. Officers will be accepting unwanted prescription drugs from 10:00 a.m. until 2:00 p.m. We are unable to accept intravenous solutions, injectables or needles; or illicit drugs like methamphetamine or marijuana. The Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) is working with law enforcement across the country aimed at prescription and over-the-counter medications that could potentially be used or sold illegally after they are no longer in use by the citizens who had originally purchased them. This program is anonymous and no questions will be asked.
