📊 Logistical ballet season

Dev Test County • March 19, 2026

Local Brew Logo
​

Good morning, Dev Test County. If you thought March was peak testing season, think again—Ohio schools are already mapping out spring 2026 assessment windows, complete with TIDE configurations and the ever-popular decision of whether to order printed family reports. It's the kind of administrative choreography that happens behind the scenes while students blissfully ignore the logistical ballet required to measure their progress.

Meanwhile, Columbus hosted a patient advocacy session connecting hematology providers to 2026 financial support resources, the Air Force Research Laboratory is prepping for a major chemistry review with Ohio research ties, and PJM's latest grid compliance filings are quietly shaping our electricity rates. Sometimes the most consequential updates are the ones nobody's talking about at dinner.
