We're far enough into the school year that some parents may be seeing grades that aren't quite what they'd hoped for.

If your kids are struggling with homework, there's a free resource at the Dublin library that's worth trying before you spend money on a tutor.

The Dublin Library’s School Help program isn't one-on-one tutoring. Instead, students in kindergarten through 12th grade can work on assignments and ask library staff and volunteers for help when they get stuck. Computers and school supplies are available, too.

It may be all the extra help some kids need.

School Help runs Monday through Thursday, from 3:30 to 5:30 p.m., at the Dublin branch in Historic Dublin.

You can check out the library’s official program listing here.

I've been thinking about how we cover kids' sports in Dublin Daily.

Until now, I've mostly featured the really big achievements. State championships, college commitments, national teams. Things that tend to make the big news.

I've done that partly to be fair. Those accomplishments are easier to identify, and I'm not left deciding whether one kid's achievement is more deserving than another's.

But the downside is that we don't feature young athletes very often. And I'm wondering if we're missing the point a little.

I’m asking myself if Dublin Daily should be a place where we cheer on more of our kids? Not just the future college athletes, but the ones who worked all season to reach a personal goal, helped their team pull off an upset, or finally made varsity.

Those stories might inspire another kid to stick with a sport, work a little harder, or believe they could do something similar.

What do you think?

There's been another concerning development at Dublin Scioto High School, just two days after police recovered a handgun from a student on Wednesday.

On Friday, parents received an email from Dublin City Schools explaining that a student had posted a threatening statement about the school on social media.

The district determined the threat wasn't credible and said there was no active danger. Still, additional Dublin Police officers were at the school as a precaution, and classes continued as normal.

It's not clear whether the student involved in Friday's incident was connected to the gun investigations.

According to ABC 6, the student who made the online threat will face consequences under school district policy. And Dublin Police Chief Justin Páez had an important reminder for students about what they post online.

“Posts made online can have significant real-world impacts,” he told ABC 6.

Even something intended as a joke or exaggeration can frighten people, disrupt school, and trigger a significant police response.

It's probably a good reminder for all of us with kids to have that conversation at home. What they post online, even if they don't mean it seriously, can have very real consequences.
