Summit Hill Junior High students participate in mock election

Students cast ballots during class

Summit Hill Junior High was abuzz on Tuesday, November 6th, over who would be the winner of the 2012 Presidential Election.

As part of their Social Studies classes, students took place in a mock election, casting their votes for either Barak Obama or Mitt Romney.  The students began with learning how to register to vote and then during class they cast their ballots to determine the winner.  Summit Hill Junior High students picked Barak Obama to win the election.  As their teacher, Ms. Trotta, said, “It will be a close race, but we should know by the end of the night who the president will be for the next four years.”

Students returned to school the next day excited to discuss the national election they had watched on the news the evening before.

Turns out it was a minor crash, according to state police. No one was injured enough to require aRead More trip in an ambulance. Two cars were involved in the collision, which happened at about 2 p.m.

I'd also contact whichever bank has this in foreclosure. If they're the legal owners, then they'reRead More responsible. Maybe the threat of a lawsuit if someone gets sick or injured might prompt them to take action.

The problem is that nobody knows or can locate the bank who owns this property. I have contacted aRead More friend of mine whom is a realtor and there saying it's owned by HUD! Well good luck getting in touch with them!

Well I just ran into an inspector sent by the bank who entered the property and said that the coinsRead More have eaten through the ceiling of he living room! I knew it!!!

We too live in Parkside and I couldn't agree with you more! I love your sign! I have a three yearRead More old and I refuse to let him play on the last 15 feet of the driveway due to the speeding cars. Maybe a speed bump?!

We've looked into a speed bump too. Make yourself a sign, call the Tinley Police and ask for theRead More electronic monitoring sign, call the village and complain, and be pro-active. Someone from the village saw my sign and has informed me that the village will be putting up speed limit signs and caution - kids playing signs this week. Good luck!!
