Ohio Hi-Point honored a former school board member posthumously Wednesday with action taken during a regular meeting.
Board members voted to name their annual student scholarship the Warren Stevens Memorial Scholarship. Mr. Stevens was killed in a Sept. 28 car crash on his way to the regular monthly Hi-Point school board meeting.
A longtime advocate of public education, Mr. Stevens served on school boards at Hi-Point and in Urbana City Schools for more than 10 years.
“Mr. Stevens was a phenomenal advocate for kids and education all over the state,” Superintendent Rick Smith said. “The board thought it was very fitting to pass on a scholarship to continue students’ education with his name on it.”
