Happy Holidays from OneDublin.org

What a year it’s been for Dublin students!

OneDublin.org’s mission is simple: “Inspiring students, parents and the community by showcasing education excellence.”

Two recent examples of education excellence were recently contributed by students – Dublin High Class of 2011 grad Emily Edlund added to the Life in College Series with an article on her experiences as a freshman at the University of Arizona (read more…) and Dublin High ASB President Tatum Wheeler wrote about the value of student leadership (read more…). Students, alumni, parents, educators and members of the community have all contributed to make OneDublin.org a reality including Michael Utsumi, who has written on many topics including Transitional Kindergarten coming to Dublin public schools (read more…).

This November OneDublin.org celebrated its second anniversary with the most readers we’ve ever had, and our YouTube Channel has been viewed over 50,000 times. For those who like top 10 lists, here are the top 10 most read articles for the past 12 months… drum roll please:

We have a lot more in store for 2012, but until then: students, parents, educators and members of the community, have a wonderful holiday season. Your support means a lot to the volunteers that make OneDublin.org possible!

Sincerely,

The team of volunteers at OneDublin.org
