EDUCATION
Nearly 1 in 3 North Coast Students “Chronically Absent”
School is back in session along the North Coast, and i visited the Humboldt County Office of Education to see just why attending school is so important for local students. Gillian Townsend, a Licensed Social Worker for the Humboldt County Office of Education, told Redwood News, “Completing an education is really what leads to becoming a successful adult. The k-12 education is critical and necessary for higher education, but also for vocational programs and joining the military or even becoming an entrepreneur.”
