Akron Public Schools recognizes the important role community and parent volunteers play in its students' education. Indeed, it takes many hands to shape a child, and the effect is nowhere as apparent as in the results of the wonderful programs represented this evening. The 14 winners being honored, along with the 28 other nominees, bring to our schools a wealth of knowledge, service and compassion. The Volunteer Recognition Awards, sponsored by the Akron Board of Education and the Business Advisory Council, recognize those who have gone above and beyond in their involvement and contributions. Candidates are nominated by Akron Public Schools personnel in the categories of business, civic organization, individual, PTA and senior citizen. Each person who volunteers his/her time, talent or resources enhances the lives and educations of others. It is no small compliment to be labeled a "volunteer." Without them, the quality of education would diminish.

On April 4, approximately ninety third-, fourth- and fifth-graders from Lawndale Elementary wore matching Rock-the-Test T-shirts and sang a special song in front of their parents, teachers and other community members. The song “Dynamite” by Taio Cruz, with newly adapted lyrics by fourth-grade teacher Laura Morrison, was sung to get the students pumped up for doing their best on the Ohio Achievement Assessment test. This performance is an encouragement to all students throughout the district to do their best, "rock this test," and "pass it right, like it's dynamite!"
