October 19, 2022 — Through teamwork, a group of Chardon High School students (Adriana Arnold, Hannah Brown,
Peyton Rosipko, Katie Schuler, Claudia Schultz and Skylar Toth) united their artistic talents to paint a snowplow blade this spring under the direction of CHS art teacher Erik Hauber, a project opportunity made possible by the Ohio Department of Transportation's Paint the Plow program. With an early arrival of winter weather this week, the snowplow is now officially in operation on our local roads!
Prior to hitting the roads to clear snow and ice, the first stop for the Hilltopper snowplow was the "Paint the Plow" display at The Great Geauga County Fair 2022.
The goal of the ODOT Paint the Plow program is to allow local schools and non-profit organizations to paint an ODOT snowplow blade with messages of snow and ice safety or state, school or community pride. In Geauga County, Paint the Plow is an outreach program presented by the Geauga County Engineer.
The District is grateful to ODOT and the Geauga County Engineer's Office for this extraordinary opportunity for Hilltopper students.
