By providing education and training, schools are fundamental components of any community. Most of us spent significant hours at school yearning to be free of the confines of the building; however, these buildings and the people who worked within them helped shape us as individuals and as members of the community. Barberton schools are no different and they have played an important role in the development of the community. Please join us on Wednesday, January 15, at 2:30 pm for A History of Barberton Schools to learn more.
