On Sunday, November 9, Senior Kathryn Lockhart was invited by Pickaway County Library Director Drew Wichterman to attend the prestigious Dayton Literary Peace Prize Awards Ceremony and Gala. Kathryn was nominated by her teacher, Mr. English, to represent Westfall at the event.
The Dayton Literary Peace Prize (DLPP), established in 2006, is the first and only annual U.S. literary award recognizing authors and their works for promoting peace. This year marked the 20th anniversary of the DLPP. Highly acclaimed author Sir Ahmed Salman Rushdie received the 2025 Ambassador Richard C. Holbrooke Distinguished Achievement Award, and Kathryn had the opportunity to meet him at the event.
Congratulations to Kathryn on being selected to attend this extraordinary event, and many thanks to the Pickaway County Library for providing such a remarkable opportunity!

Mrs. Yeager’s Food Science classes whipped up the perfect Halloween treat—Red Velvet Rice Krispie Treats that look just like raw meat! With the realistic packaging and creative labels, everyone will be doing a double-take before taking a bite!
The burgers are plated up—and they look amazing! Mrs. Grady’s art students have finished their toilet paper burger creations, and the results are every bit as impressive as they are inventive. Outstanding work by our talented young artists!
Every year, Pickaway County ESC, with the help of local school National Honor Societies, hosts a Leadership and Ethics Conference to help students strengthen their leadership skills and character.
