December 2023 Alumni Spotlights: Mike Olmstead (FC ’89) and Larra Overton (NA ’01)

Excerpt from the December 2023 Legacy Ledger: We end the year with our “broadcasters’ issue”, returning to a theme first introduced in May 2021: storytelling. Whether it’s behind the anchor desk or at a game in the broadcasters’ booth, telling a story is integral to reporting the news, sports or weather. We present two accomplished alumni who … Continue reading “December 2023 Alumni Spotlights: Mike Olmstead (FC ’89) and Larra Overton (NA ’01)”

November 2023 Alumni Spotlights: Jim Dexter (NA ’68) and Scott Ham (FC ’85)

November is a month of gratitude and reflection. It’s a fitting time to think about those who put on the uniform… recently or long ago… to protect and defend our nation. This year, especially, it feels like a poignant moment to look hard at how military conflicts impact our world, our community and our families. … Continue reading “November 2023 Alumni Spotlights: Jim Dexter (NA ’68) and Scott Ham (FC ’85)”

September 2023 Alumni Spotlights: Glenn Barnett (Lafayette Elementary principal 1957-1993) and Ted Mossler (Green Valley Elementary principal 1956-1984)

This month, we’re breaking an existing “rule” that says we should feature one celebrated personality from each of our two high schools. We introduce two gentlemen who never attended NAHS or FCHS…two men who never taught at either high school. And yet both have been legendary heroes to thousands of NAFC students. They were two … Continue reading “September 2023 Alumni Spotlights: Glenn Barnett (Lafayette Elementary principal 1957-1993) and Ted Mossler (Green Valley Elementary principal 1956-1984)”

August 2023 Alumni Spotlights: Jamey Aebersold (NAHS ’57) & Doug Elmore (FCHS faculty 1986-present)

We may often say, “That’s music to my ears!” Yet, we don’t often give enough credit to those who make the music happen. We might not realize that Floyd Central High School’s orchestra is a winning powerhouse, with a fantastic reputation throughout the state. That orchestra is conducted by FCHS teacher Doug Elmore. We also … Continue reading “August 2023 Alumni Spotlights: Jamey Aebersold (NAHS ’57) & Doug Elmore (FCHS faculty 1986-present)”

Welcome to our “careers in computing” issue. This month, we’re profiling one New Albany grad and two from Floyd Central (husband and wife). The path that each took might not appear to have much in common… and yet, each made a living doing things that were fundamentally similar. Generally, it always involved having both hands on a … Continue reading “July 2023 Alumni Spotlights: Terry Phillips (NAHS ’56) & David Neel (FCHS ’81) / Tammie Boling Neel (FCHS ’83)”
