Bertram hired by Northwest
Lebanon City Schools Treasurer Randy Bertram has been hired for the same position in the Northwest Local School district. Bertram sent a letter to the school board and to the media detailing his situation. It reads: I eagerly anticipate starting my new position as the Treasurer and Chief Financial Officer for Northwest Local Schools on August 1, 2008. My family and I look forward to relocating to Cincinnati and becoming a part of the community. As long time resident’s of Waynesville, we feel connected to the area and we are pleased to be staying in southwest Ohio. As I leave Lebanon City School District I want to commend the Board, district staff and community for stepping up and helping this excellent school district overcome some of the most difficult financial times it has seen. I am proud to say that the district has been restored to financial stability and its’ integrity is once again strong and vibrant. With a slow economy and unsettled state funding, the community needs to understand that there are still challenges and needs that are upon the district. Continued work and commitment by the staff and community are of the utmost importance for Lebanon City School’s future. I wish all of you the very best and I will miss this wonderful community and staff. As the Treasurer for Northwest Local Schools I will work diligently with the Board of Education, district staff and the community to plan objectives and clearly reach goals while maintaining accurate and current financial data. I will strive for financial integrity for the district and community.

GED=Degree
With the Warren County Career Center offering more testing times to help people earn their high school equivalency degree, I would encourage anyone who was unable to get their diploma for whatever reason to seriously consider applying for this program.
According to the U.S. Dept. of Education, individuals with a GED or High School Diploma have a 33-percent higher earning capacity in their lifetime than those who dropped out of high school and do not have their GED.
There is a fee to take the test, but the Career Center offers a waiver for those who take the practice test at ABLE. At that time, the GED test can be scheduled by contacting Warren County Career Center Adult Education at 513-932-8145.
The evening tests are on two nights, usually the second Monday and Tuesday of every month from 5 to 9 p.m. The morning tests are approximately every six weeks from 8:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. on Monday and Tuesday at the TEC Center on the main campus. Candidates must attend both Monday and Tuesday. More information and test dates can be found here.

Actually, GED=diploma. Degrees are granted only by colleges. High schools award diplomas.
