Update on High Schools in Nevada County... Brett McFadden's presentation on the future of Career Technical and Ag programs at the High Schools was very enlightening. He and Scholarship coordinator Linda Melugin explained the wonderful opportunity the Ranch Project will afford our High School students from throughout the district with information on careers in the building and construction trades, manufacturing, and the arts plus enhance science and mathematics curricula. The Penn Valley Rotary board approved $500 for the project which will be matched by Rotary District grant funds.  Both Superintendent McFadden (49er Breakfast) and Linda Melugin (Grass Valley South) are Rotarians in our area.
