Destinations Academy Receives Local Grant to Enhance Curriculum Library
Destinations staff member, Ruth Hartley recently received a $1000 grant from the Coos Bay Schools Foundation. Ruth used the money to purchase new and engaging reading material for her students.
Community Involvement Continues
For many years, HLC students have been making a difference in our community. Ongoing partnerships with the City of Coos Bay, Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife and Coos County Parks are continuing this year. Students have already resumed trail-building and maintenance and invasive species removal at Mingus Park. Students will return to Noble Creek Fish Hatchery on November 9th to assist ODFW with the spawning of Chinook Salmon.
New projects this year include maintaining the Madison School Community Garden.
