Senator square: Carson High students celebrating successes

Carson High School has been in a flurry of action this week after a great turnout for the conclusion of senior projects.

Thank you to all who volunteered to be a part of the valuable educational experience.

Also I want to applaud Darlene Nevin and the CHS English department who put numerous hours in to have this run successfully.

Finally, congratulations to the seniors who did a fantastic job with their projects.
