Shoutout to Milton High School

I want to give a shout-out to the staff at Milton High School! It is obvious how deeply the staff cares about the kids and how hard they work every day to ensure every student’s needs are met. While no school is perfect, their genuine concern and dedication truly make all the difference.

Shoutout to unnamed very caring individuals

My husband and I were waiting outside a local restaurant to meet friends for dinner. We observed a woman holding the arm of a man with a cane. He was having great difficulty stepping down from the curb to get to his vehicle. It appeared that he might have been recovering from a stroke. My husband walked over to assist them. The three were quickly joined by other adults, young and old. After awhile, the group was able, with care and patience, to help him step off the curb and to his vehicle.
