Talk:Ravenna, Ohio

message: At one point there was a religious school, Immaculate Conception School, but it closed down as the student population dwindled over the years, much to the appreciation of many of it's alumni.  So the alumni appreciated the dwindling of the student population, and the school's subsequent closing?  I don't get it. -- SwissCelt 19:49, 18 December 2005 (UTC)
thread_title: Huh?

message: Looks like this "notable person" is legitimate... or at least as legitimately notable as any person to make the first cut on American Idol.  While I'm not sure every AI contestant deserves his/her own article, it is verifiable (see http://www.chroniclet.com/Archive/Html/2004/August/8-15/Daily%20Pages/Front/Html/Head5.html) that this person actually appeared on the program. -- SwissCelt 04:13, 15 January 2006 (UTC)

message: A few years ago, there was 8-month pregant woman who lived in Ravenna and was killed by her neighbor, who cut out and stole the baby. This was around 2000, I think? I went to Kent State and there were "missing woman" signs everywhere. I believe it made national news (shades of Laci Peterson so it was a big story), and I'd add it, except I can't remember the woman's name. Anyone?
*This was Theresa Andrews, murdered in late 2000 by Michelle Bica, both of Ravenna. The baby, Oscar Gavin Andrews, was cut out of the mudered mother, but survived. It was a gruesome crime that made national headlines when it finally broke.  The funeral was a major media event and had to be held in Kent at Roosevelt High School's auditorium with some 1,400 in attendance in the auditorium and several hundred outside.  --JonRidinger 05:41, 17 March 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Templates and Assessments

message: I agree with User:Nyttend:  The information about former mayor Paul Jones is well-sourced, and is notable (at least through the myopic lens of recent history) to the subject of the article (i.e. Ravenna).  It therefore should remain in the article.  Working here in Ravenna, though, I do know that source material can be found in Mr. Jones' defense.  The best approach for those who wish to defend Mr. Jones, therefore, is to include that source material in the article.  If I have time and inclination (and frankly, right now I have neither) I may do so myself. -- SwissCelt 20:18, 25 October 2007 (UTC)

message: Maplewood Career Center is a vocational School in Ravenna; do vocational schools have a place in the "school" listing?
Their website is , and, on a personal note, I am a student there.
Something like 6-10 schools have students that go to Maplewood instead of their (the student's) homeschool, so you graduate with a diploma from the homeschool + if you get certified, you get certification in the field you were in / if not, you get experience + you leave all the people you hated at your homeschool!

replies: text: Maplewood is located in Ravenna Township, so if anywhere it should be listed there.  This article is about things located within the city limits of Ravenna.  Most of the high schools' individual Wikipedia articles mention (or should) their participation in the Maplewood JVS, which includes all high schools in Portage County except Aurora and Kent Roosevelt.  I will make sure Maplewood is mentioned where appropriate and will look into a separate article for the school.  --JonRidinger (talk) 20:52, 17 September 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Updating this, Maplewood is actually located in the city of Ravenna after seeing better city maps so I stand corrected.  I corrected this in the article a few weeks ago.  --JonRidinger (talk) 17:17, 28 April 2010 (UTC)
