News!

The school has been a recipient of a Safe Routes to School Assessment Grant! The school will be working with the Arrowhead Regional Development Commission (ARDC) to assess the positives and negatives for students walking and biking to class. ARDC will compete this assessment by June of this year. After the assessment, they will provide recommendations, which, at that point, the school would be ready to apply for an implementation grant allowing them to implement those recommendations.

There is an upcoming webinar that looks to be very interesting and potentially beneficial to the school community regarding Safe Routes to School:
