EDUCATION NEWS

- ➤ Downtown Dayton was transformed in the past 24 hours for a NATO assembly that brought secure zones, road closures and new electronic signboards to warn drivers—while pedestrians continue to navigate the area with temporary detours. Hotel Ardent inside the security zone will close from today to Monday and Montgomery County will run a NATO hotline from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. for non-emergency questions. Dayton Daily News
HEALTH NEWS
- ➤ Today, Kettering Health announced that a cyberattack halted phone lines and MyChart access, forcing the cancellation of elective procedures while emergency rooms remained open.
