Oberlin district to annex two Lorain rural areas
Lorain County Board of Education voted to transfer Russia and Pittsfield districts into Oberlin’s tax base to enlarge its district and provide for rural students. Russia is valued just under two million dollars and Pittsfield about 700,600. Boundary adherence remained a point of discussion with Wellington raised as an option by some. The board also accepted Olmsted Falls territory into Columbia district, aligning boundaries after Cuyahoga County approval. Superintendent Gibbons reported ten teaching positions open countywide, mainly in home economics, commercial, and vocational agriculture.
