When you have a dream or goal, and want to accomplish something, the most important thing you can do is take that first step, explained Warren G. Harding High School alum Dontrell Allen.
“Do something. Take that first picture. Create that first video. Start. If you set your mind to doing what you want, you can accomplish it,” Allen told Harding’s WSCN (Warren Student Communication Network) class.
Allen, who has millions of social media followers, took some time out of his busy schedule on Wednesday, Jan. 10, 2024, as a successful social media influencer to visit his alma mater and the class he spent so much time in as a student at Harding.
He and the students discussed creativity, social media opportunities, growth and influences.

Students across Warren’s four PK-8 schools recently donned their red for STEM Goes Red for Girls.
Science teachers and administrators selected 7th graders from each of the the district’s four PK-8 schools to attend the STEM ((Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) event held at the Northeast Ohio Medical University.
At the event, students attended sessions in First Energy Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) and Basic Work Tool Identification; and Heart Anatomy, Physiology and Health. The also visited the Vendor Fair where they learned about pacemakers, CPR, and much more!
Students were excited that they were able to bring home their own stethoscope from the event. They learned to listen to their heart sound at the event.
During lunch, students were able to sit with women who are professionals in various STEM fields in which some students could have developed an interest.
One Lincoln 7th grade student said, “The fact that most of the mentors told me to keep believing in what I want to do with my life. They really helped me when they said that the way I think is really impressive.”
Contrary to his reputation, Mr. Grinch didn’t steal Christmas at the Willard PK-8 School.
In fact, he made the season all the more merrier with a special visit to Willard on Tuesday, Dec. 19, 2023.
Mr. Grinch made a special “live” appearance during a viewing of one of his popular movies in the gymnasium. Students invited to the showing were those who exhibited extended efforts in their positive behavior for the month of December. Their reward included watching the movie and eating some popcorn.
The students shared their popcorn with Mr. Grinch as he made his way through the group, hugging and fist bumping students along the way.
