Truth on the Teen Center
Recently the Prospect had great fun with local rumors regarding the Loyalton Middle School. We puffed the rumors up to demonstrate how silly some were, but an event earlier this week drove home how serious the subject actually is.
The Loyalton Teen Center could be located in the Loyalton Middle School; it would be a good use for the school, and an important service to the community.
How important is the Teen Center?
It's easy to become dramatic at times like this, but it isn't dramatic to say it might have saved the life of one of our community's kids; it might save the next. Indeed, the Prospect has gone on record in support of the teen center. We encourage you to do so, too.
Below is notice for a public meeting on the Teen Center. Please attend.
