Austintown Fitch senior operates toy drive Lexi Cintron, a senior at Austintown Fitch High School, has been involved with charity work for as long as she can remember.

Ten years later, she has collected and donated more than 5,000 toys to various organizations to helping families in need. With one year left of “Lexi’s Toy Drive," she wishes to help as many people as she can through Someplace Safe,

a shelter for domestically battered women and children. Those interested in helping can drop off donations to Spalon of Sara Morris, located at 5000 E. Market St. Suite 21, in Howland, during Dec. 2-16 between the hours of 10 a.m. and 1 p.m.

Austintown schools broke ground on their athletic complex project on Nov. 8. The project will place new turf on the football field, put turf for the first time on the baseball field and create a brand new turf field that will be used for multiple purposes, such as soccer and band practice. Pictured are, from left, superintendent Vincent Colaluca, Harold Porter, David Richie, Lewis VanHoose, alex Benyo, Cathy Mack and treasurer A.J. Ginetti.

Ground breaks on Fitch athletic complex By ZACK SHIVELY zshively@vindy.com

Austintown Fitch High School broke ground on Nov. 8 for the new athletic complex project. The project will create a turf multipurpose field behind the football field and next to the baseball field, as well as put turf

on the football field and baseball fields. The football field already has turf on it, but the school needs to update it, said athletic director Lewis VanHoose. He said that they originally put turf on the field 11 years ago and turf fields need replaced every 8-10 years.

The project will be done by SCG Fields and their partners Act Global. SCG Fields have constructed the turf fields for many high schools as well as colleges, such as Ohio University and Ohio State University, and major sports teams, such as the Cleveland Browns and the

The athletic complex project at Austintown schools will give the school a turf baseball field, the first turf baseball field in the Mahoning Valley. Pictured, the high school baseball team stood with the group that broke ground on the athletic complex.

New York Yankees. Paul Franks of SCG Fields said the company will work through the winter to have the project completed by April 1, just in time for the school’s baseball team to begin playing on the field. The baseball field will be the first turf baseball field in the Mahoning Valley. This will allow the team to play through most of the elements this season, as they will not have to worry about puddles and mud on the field. The baseball field, as with the multipurpose field and football field, will have a drainage system to remove rainwater from the field. The multipurpose field will allow the school’s soccer team have an area to play and practice. The football team and band will also occasionally practice on the field. VanHoose said the field would also be used by the middle school physical education classes and sports teams. Superintendent Vincent Colaluca thanked the township and board members for their support on the field. VanHoose thanked the board for moving forward with the idea to update their athletic fields, which they originally brought to the board in June.

Austintown Fitch High School had a “Lunch with a Vet” event. Retired members of the military came to the school, sat with the students during lunch and offered discussions about the military and history.

Ken David, a Vietnam veteran with two Purple Hearts and a Distinguished Service Cross, said he let the students ask him questions about whatever they wanted to know.

Fitch High School honors vets with lunch By ZACK SHIVELY zshively@vindy.com

Austintown Fitch High School invited 27 veterans to their school to eat and talk with students on Oct. 25. School board member Ken Jakubec and assistant principal Jim Penk organized the event. Jakubec himself served in the military. The veterans fought in either the Vietnam or Iraq wars. Jakubec wanted to set up an event to precede the school’s annual Veteran’s Day assembly. He felt this gave the students a chance to really talk to the veterans and get to know their stories. The students sat with the veteran’s during their lunch periods. The 27 veterans moved throughout the lunchroom during the three lunch periods. Not all veterans stayed for each period.

Ken David, Vietnam veteran with two Purple Hearts and a Distinguished Service Cross, spoke with students about a future in the military. He let the students ask questions and said they were very inquisitive. He also said he wanted to bring awareness to the freedoms that students have. Penk said the program fit in well with the programs going on in the school, such as the Veteran’s Day assembly. The students recently created a group called “Students Helping Veterans,“ where students spend time assisting and honoring veterans. Roger Bacon, Vietnam Veteran with three Purple Hearts and a Nav y Commendation Medal for Valor, said that he thinks, “It is good that students have the opportunity to talk to vets,“ because the veterans’ perspectives cannot be taught in

a book. He said the event has a good cause and benefits the children to learn history and know what options are available to them. The school also has a program for students with family members serving in the military called “Purple Star.“ Penk said the school knows students with family members serving can have a difficult time coping. The program currently has organized a room for the students and has plans to create a way for the students to have video calls with their family. Leo Connelly, who served in Vietnam and received three Army Commendation Medals for Valor and nine Air Medals for Valor, talked with students about putting the war and era in historical context. He said more schools should do the program because it gives the students a

new perspective about history and the military. Connelly and David have worked with the school in past. Both had spoke at different Veterans’ Nights that the school organized. Connelly described the school as being, “very vet friendly,“ because of the events the school has for veterans. Connelly and David are also both members of the Ohio Military Hall of Fame. After the lunch, the students and veterans went to the gymnasium for a special assembly for the school to honor and thank the veterans. The band played a patriotic sequence and the show choir sang “God Bless the U.S.A.“ All the students in the school stood in the stands and sang the chorus. The choir walked up to the Veterans and personally thanked them for their service during the song.

The class will go over top examples of using social media to market to an audience on Nov. 21 at 6:30 p.m. It is recommended that you know how to use and set-up a business account on Facebook before you attend this workshop. Free and paid methods of promotion will be discussed. To register, call 330744-8636 and ask for information services or register online using the events calendar.

Group challenges AMS to promote positivity By ZACK SHIVELY zshively@vindy.com

Rachel’s Challenge had a series of presentations on Oct. 12 at Austintown Middle School to push students to have a positive impact on the world. The organization is named after Rachel Joy Scott, a victim of the school shooting at Columbine High School in 1999. In her short life, she had a noticeable positive impact on those around her at her school and in her community. Scott believed that everyone could play a part in changing the world through chain reactions. She said that if someone did something kind for another person, the second person would be more likely to do something kind in return, creating a positive chain reaction for change. The presentation included video interviews of teachers, friends and family of Scott and pictures her life, poetry and journals. Chris Mowery, the presenter at the school, gave the presentation three times before lunch during the school day. He later gave a community presentation at 6:30 p.m. for families of the students and friends from other school districts. Austintown Middle School Principal Benjamin Baldner

worked w ith the organization to create a Friends of Rachel Club at the school at one o’clock. Nearly 100 students and ten staff members will put in place goals to spread positivity throughout their school and community. They based their goals around the organization’s five challenges. The challenges began with “Look for the best in others,“ along with ending prejudice. A video played of Rachel’s brother, Craig Scott, talking about the shooting that day. He was in the school’s library where the violence started. He said that the shooters had made fun of his friend for being African American prior to shooting him. This challenge calls for students to end prejudice and hate in any form, whether about skin color, socioeconomic background or anything else. The second challenge asked students to “Dream big.“ Rachel Scott had dreams of positively affecting millions of people from an early age. She acted on these daily by helping those in her school. The third challenge told the students to “choose positive influences and be one.“ Scott wrote that she wanted to help those with special needs, the new students and students being bullied.

Their fourth challenge asks students to “Speak with kindness.“ A video of a friend of Scott’s played on the screen. He talked about how easy and important it is to treat people politely and respectfully. The fifth challenge asked everyone in the room to let loved ones know that they are loved. Mowery said these conversations can be awkward or difficult, but he stressed that they need to happen. He said that they design the program to occur in school and at home. He said that bullying happens both during the school day and at home through cyberbullying. Rachel’s Challenge asks students to help during school and promote positivity on social media pages. Mowery has been with Rachel’s Challenge for four years. He has garnered a relationship with Rachel Scott’s parents since joining. He had known of Scott’s story before joining and named his daughter after her. Rachel’s Challenge presents at schools throughout the world. They aim to spread Scott’s legacy through creating positive chain reactions. More information on the group can be found at http:// rachelschallenge.org/.

Austintown Fire Department teaches fire safety to AES students By ZACK SHIVELY zshively@vindy.com

The Austintown PTA invited the fire department to Austintown Elementary School on Oct. 17-19 to teach the students about fire safety, explain what the department does and how the fire truck works. The fire department came on three consecutive days. They taught the kindergartners on Oct. 17, the first-grade students on Oct. 18 and the second-graders on Oct. 19. The PTA organized this event to coincide with fire safety month. Bethany Martinez, AES PTA president, said that the PTA wanted to prepare and educate the students if a fire were to happen in their home. She appreciated the fire department’s willingness to come out all three days to accommodate the size of the AES.

The students had two learning environments for the fire safety lessons. Their first lesson occurred in the cafeteria where fire fighters Sarah Anton and Cameron Long along with assistant chief Bob Williams taught the children about dialing 911, smoke detectors, what to do in a fire, and “stop, drop and roll.“ Long and Williams explained and demonstrated the fire gear firefighters use to stay safe. The fire department had two fire trucks set up outside for the second lesson. They explained the functions of the different parts of the truck, including the hose and gauges. They gave the students detailed information on each piece of equipment and why it is necessary. The AES PTA has invited the fire department every year since moving into the new school five years ago. Each year, they bring in between six and eight firefighters to teach the students.
