No, it's not an Ohio plate. It's our neighboring state from the east, Pennsylvania. We saw this license plate in the Rosenberger Drive parking lot at Bluffton University.
The Bluffton Schools are currently accepting applications from students interested in attending the school district through open enrollment for the 2010 -2011 school year, according to Greg Denecker, superintendent.
Students from any school district in Ohio may apply and enroll in the Bluffton Schools tuition free. Students are admitted on a full-time basis only.
Applications are approved annually on a first come, first served basis and approval is subject to grade level enrollment and educational programs.

This fall, a Big Idea Contest sponsored by the Bluffton Center for Entrepreneurs (BCE) encouraged development of creative and unique ideas from area entrepreneurs.
Ideas ranging from senior citizen-friendly home design to a robotic ice cream maker sprung from the minds of persons in northwestern Ohio, which were entered into BCE's contest. The contest winners now have more than just an idea; they have a little extra money, as well, as a plan to possibly start their own businesses some day, thanks to BCE.
A new scholarship is now available to a Bluffton High School senior who intends to major in education, according to Greg Denecker, Bluffton school superintendent.
"This scholarship was made possible due to Theda D. Hankish, who died on Sept. 16, 2008. This award is set up in honor of her parents Charles Hankish Sr. and Sophia Hankish," he said.
Each academic year a scholarship committee will award a $1,000 scholarship to one Bluffton High School senior who is entering the field of education to become a teacher.
