Congratulations to Janet Ink, recipient of the

2022 Outstanding Educator Award!

The Seneca Regional Chamber of Commerce gathered with more than 200 guests at Tiffin University’s Marion Center to celebrate the start of the school year and to welcome new educators to Seneca County.



During the Educators Appreciation Breakfast, the Chamber recognized New Riegel Local School District educator, Janet Ink, with the 2022 Outstanding Educator Award. The Outstanding Educator Award is presented to an educator who has exemplified vision, leadership qualities, and commitment to the improvement of education. The award serves to recognize and honor outstanding achievement in the field of education, inspire the recipients to embrace the qualities and characteristics required to advance the education profession, and encourage other educators to aspire to make a difference in the education of youth to shape a better future.

Going into her 39th year of teaching, Janet Ink has continued to dedicate her time to her students and is continuously finding new ways to make improvements within her classroom to make it a better place. She also assisted in the start of implementing hands-on learning and activity stations at New Riegel. Janet continues to find and purchase new education games where she incorporates them into her lessons and loans them out to anyone who wants to take them home and show their parents what they have learned both throughout the school year and the summer months as well.

The Around the Town event hosted by the Seneca Regional Chamber of Commerce in partnership with Heidelberg University and Tiffin University will take in Downtown Tiffin on August 20 at 2:30 PM. The Around the Town event gives incoming and returning students the opportunity to become familiar with the businesses and organizations that make up Seneca County. In previous years, nonprofit organizations have been successful in recruiting volunteers from the universities at this event.

During the event, registered businesses and organizations set up a booth to showcase their products and services to the university students. The students, along with campus leaders, walk to the event from their respective campuses. Organizations are asked to sign up online at here.
