Building Principals Mike Shuler, JGHS principal, reported that Jim Houser was selected as an AP All-State football offensive guard and Rick O'Connor has made it through the first round of the selection process for the North All-Star Team for 1991. There is at least one more step in the process before the team is finalized. Also.

Coach Dennis Rippy was named Coach of the Year in Cass 2-A for our region. This is the fourth such award for Coach Rippy. Mrs. Kennedy and her home economics classes are involved in the annual Christmas seals sale. JGHS was the largest seller of Christmas seals out of 15 area schools. In fact, all schools in the John Glenn School Corp, produced over 33% of all monies raised for the American Lung Association Christmas Seal Drive. Mr. Shuler felt this indicated a solid attitude of helping others from our students. Mr. Shuler recognized the boys basketball team for capturing the 1991 Bi-County Tournament. This is John Glenn's sixth title, tieing with Bremen for the most victories in the 26 years of the tournament. Congratulations to the team and to Coach Mosson. Lastly.
