Smith not charged; 12 others are
My colleague Katherine Ullmer reports that Centerville police filed charges against 12 people including seven juveniles in connection with the party at former school board member Cheryl Smith’s house.
But the big news is Smith was not among those charged.
Police say there is no indication that she supplied the alcohol for the party. Those headed to court face charges including underage drinking, possession of marijuana and keg law violations.

Brain Awareness Week is coming up!
It really is going to be Brain Awareness Week next month. Insert your own joke here.
In all seriousness, this week is designed to promote brain research, which has made a huge impact on our understanding of how kids learn and has fueled a big national push for more early childhood education, as the research has reinforced the view that learning in the first few years of life is key to school success.
All this has happened over the past 15 years, too.
