Oakwood was selected to share their outstanding program, Student-Run Credit Union, during the ninth annual Student Achievement Fair Nov. 12 at the 2007 Ohio School Boards Association Capital Conference and Trade Show. OSBA showcased 100 innovative programs at this year’s fair, held at the Greater Columbus Convention Center in downtown Columbus. The Credit Union was selected to participate based upon its creativity and positive impact on student achievement.
Representing OHS and the Credit Union were co-presidents Kaitlin Key and Marja Brolinson, along with teacher advisor, Jamie Walker. Students and staff from districts across the state exhibited their innovative programs at the fair. The event offered an opportunity to observe and learn what public school districts in Ohio are doing to enhance learning and achievement in their schools. More than 10,000 school board members, administrators, teachers, vendors and guests attended the four-day OSBA Capital Conference and Trade Show.
