Moving the competition to a Zoom format did not stop members of the Harding Mock Trial team from continuing the Harding tradition of earning Best Witness and Best Attorney awards in the Ohio Center for Law Related Education's Middle School Mock Trial competition. Students competing in mock trials usually appear in a courtroom, in the State Judicial Court House in Columbus, and stand at the podium to deliver opening statements, direct and cross examination, and closing statements, peppered with objections and rebuttals left and right. Witnesses normally rise and are sworn in, sit in the witness stand surrounded by judges and lawyers, and deliver their testimony. 

The LHS orchestra, choir and band programs are excited to offer their spring concerts May 9-11. The orchestras and bands will perform live in the Civic and the choirs will share pre-recorded performances. The format will be different in the past to accommodate social distancing with each ensemble assigned a scheduled hour. Visit lakewoodmusicboosters.com for the date and time of each ensemble's performance.

Congratulations to West Shore Senior Culinary Arts students Madison Lacquement and Paige Murrin for placing 4th in the Ohio Family, Career and Community Leaders of America (FCCLA) State Competition. Madison prepared a Lemon Chiffon Cake while Paige made Lemon Pastry Cream Eclairs with a Lavender Glaze. Both girls put in extra hours throughout the year refining their recipes and faced the additional challenge of having to compete virtually. "I am truly excited to see what the future holds for these young chefs. Their passion, dedication and positive attitude will take them far. We are incredibly proud of them," remarked Culinary Arts Instructor, Chef Devan Corti.
