AMC Muncie 12 is where I feel most comfortable releasing my full range of emotions

AMC Muncie 12 has stood in the same lot on the north side of town for my entire life. I can’t imagine my home city without it. Although the former AMC Showplace 7 in Muncie was open for the first 11 years of my life, I only recall seeing a film there once or twice. While minor renovations have somewhat changed the look of Muncie 12, I still feel like a little kid every time I smell popcorn before even entering the building.

Yorktown opens season with 42-2 road-win over Anderson

With both teams being 5-6, last year, the outcome of the opening game of 2024 could have been unpredictable to the fans who lined the bleachers., But by the end of the first quarter, the momentum was on the Tigers side and remained that way as the green and white defeated the Indians 42-2.

EDUCATION

Changes on the Horizon: The Indiana Department of Education proposes new diploma changes for high school students.

The new changes require a base of 42 credits where students are required to complete a series of required courses, including but not limited to seven semesters of English, seven credits of math, seven credits of “science, technology and engineering,” and five social studies credits. Students have the option to pursue “seals” or forms of additional education. The seals are “enrollment,” “enlistment and service” and “employment,” with each seal having an “honors” or “honors plus” option.
