EXTRA 6 THE CINCINNATI ENQUIRERJune 3. 1986 Perfectly healthy attendance record Mt. Healthy graduate never absent JSjj I i 'V-V i 1 I I jUt 4- I Cincinnati Mayor Charles Luken poses with winners of the Good Posture Poster Contest sponsored by the Southwestern Ohio Chiropractic Association. They are, from left, third-place winner Andrew Wright of Ross Middle School, Okeana; second-place winner Gwen Niemann of St. Boniface School; and first-place winner Melissa Vail of Glendale Elementary School.

Luken had proclaimed the month of May Good Posture Month in the city. BY TERRY FLYNN The Cincinnati Enquirer Scott Logemann insists he's not a health fanatic, nor is he particularly athletic. But he's certainly healthy. Logemann, who graduates June 13 from Mount Healthy High School, has been a student in the Mount Healthy school system since kindergarten and has never missed a day. That's 13 years of perfect attendance.

It adds up to approximately 2,500 classroom days without a miss. "I guess I've just been exceptionally healthy," Logemann said modestly. "I don't eat any special health foods or anything like that." Logemann, 18, said he didn't give much thought to never having missed a day of school until the sixth grade. Then it hit him. "I realized I hadn't missed any school, and other people mentioned it," he said.

"After that, it became a real challenge to maintain perfect attendance." Kay Cook, assistant principal at Mount Healthy High School, said people at the school "generally knew about it (Logemann's attendance). He received a special plaque at the school awards banquet recognizing his accomplishment." Logemann recalled having the mumps when he was young, "but I guess I had them in the summer because it didn't happen while I was in school." Similarly, his classroom attendance wasn't affected by chicken pox, measles, flu, colds or. SCHOOLS Logemann any of the other maladies of youth which normally produce a few days out of school. Did he ever think about just playing hooky once in a while? "No," was his emphatic answer. But then, Logemann likes school.

His grades are all A's and B's and he graduates 13th in his senior class with studies that include computer work and a lot of math. "I'm attending the University of Dayton in the fall," he said. "I plan to major in computer science." That gives him at least four more years to stretch his attendance record. Oh, yes Logemann has also worked part time the past two years. Naturally, he hasn't missed a day.
