As a long time Marietta resident I am proud to say that WMOA has been a genuine friend to the community. John and Chris, learning from their dad, are constantly looking to advantage others. For example, for years and years as Marietta College athletics was suffering, WMOA was always there for the Pioneers. This is but one example of WMOA integrity and caring. We are fortunate to have WMOA. Bob Springer Marietta
Imagine working a job for a low wage, while raising two children, in a state like Ohio where $16.64 is the rate required to afford an average two-bedroom rental. Consider the multiple other costs that are involved with making ends meet -including clothing, school supplies, transportation expenses, child care, and food. According to the federal definition, there’s a good chance you would not be considered to be living in poverty, in spite of the fact that making ends meet on your salary alone would be nearly impossible. Now consider how supports such as refundable tax credits, SNAP ...
The recent gathering of interested citizens to discuss the content and the process for teaching students in the Marietta City School District was an unqualified success. Approximately seventy-five individuals met for over ninety minutes to work through a series of small and large group opportunities and share their hopes and expectations for the young people in the community. One thing was clear... these people care about the education and the future of their children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Perhaps the most promising “common ground” that was uncovered at the meeting ...
The return of students to the Washington State Community College campus always brings a vibrant energy, and perhaps even more so this year. With everything we’ve endured over the past 19 months, I was excited to see students back in our classrooms, our library busy with activity, and our hallways once again active with students moving between classes. In 2021, welcoming students for a new academic year takes on added meaning and responsibility. In addition to educating our students and preparing them for the workforce, we are persevering in our efforts to keep our students, ...
My name is Roy Ault. I have been an author and columnist for 33 year I am writing a book about Glenn “Jeep” Davis, a three time gold medal Olympian. He participated in the 1956 and 1960 Olympics. I have strong evidence that Jeep attended Marietta High School during the 1961/1962 year. Yet the Marietta schools have no record of his attendance. I cannot write a book without knowing where he was that year and I need your help. If anyone out there: classmate, teammate, teacher, girlfriend, boy friend — anyone — please send it to me anyway you can. Roy E. ...
Our local democrat socialist mouthpiece wrote a very prophetic warning to Americans. He spoke of the “too dumb” cult members and a crazy man. He crowed with delight about the future deaths of “a few million” cult members. Under socialism, which he fully supports, many millions more citizens will be exterminated. Socialism is responsible for over 100,000,000 murders throughout its nearly 100 year terrorism campaign. He spoke about the “too nice and moral democrats”. He (they) are, in truth, God haters, anti-christian, racists, abortion loving (millions murdered), homosexual ...
