Children of Poverty

All administrators, teachers and para professionals will take part in an in-service/staff development session on March 10 at OHS.  The staff development will cover  the successes of Lincoln High in Walla Walla , an alternative school.  The school is nationally recognized for the model they have developed to deal with children who are raised in a cycle of poverty, violence, and disease.  The school's past was one of violence, drugs and truancy.

Lincoln is the subject of the documentary film Paper Tigers.
