The grades are in for school districts in Ohio. The Department of Education released the information Thursday morning. For the first time school districts were given an overall grade. In our area here are the results: Zanesville City Schools received a “D”, West Muskingum Schools received a “C”, Tri-Valley also received a “C” grade. Maysville schools earned a “B”, while Franklin Local Schools and East Muskingum Schools received a “C” grade.
