Tuslaw Local Schools will raise breakfast prices from $2 to $2.25 and milk from 50 cents to 65 cents for the upcoming school year – rising food costs drove the increase.

Plain Local Schools is starting the new school year with new roles for familiar leaders—GlenOak High School principal Gayle Kimbrough became assistant superintendent and Brett Niarchos became head principal while the district moves to ParentSquare for all school messages.
