Finneytown Local Schools have a host of wonderful traditions, but none is more community-minded than Homecoming. It's a time for students, parents, residents and staff to come together and remember what makes this such a special, welcoming place. Here's what's happening Sept. 28-30.

The children's-book favorite, Pete the Cat, made his presence known everywhere at Brent Elementary's spectacular Family Reading Night, Sept. 7. Brent students and their families listened to Pete stories, ate snacks mentioned in Pete books and played games and made crafts that had Pete's paw prints all over them.
