Lincoln Charter School students are learning how to manage their feelings, thanks to a mental health program the school has been building.
The program includes a new playground, a sensory space and trauma-informed training for the staff. Some of this was covered by over $330,000 in safer schools and stronger mental health support for students grants, which Lincoln Charter has been awarded since 2022.
“Mental health is important,” social worker Solita Day told state officials who visited Oct. 29. “And here at Lincoln, we take it very seriously.”
Day cited a CDC study that showed that 21% of children between 3 and 17 have been diagnosed with mental,...

The $24,950 Blank Slate EV truck starts with the essentials of a small pickup truck, comes in one color, allows you to customize it yourself and can even be converted into a five-person SUV.
Pickup trucks in the U.S. weren't always $80,000 behemoths packed with every feature possible. At the beginning of the 20th century, small-business owners began modifying passenger cars like the Ford Model T before the industry caught on to building purpose-built pickups in the 1920s. Even 60 years later, the basic idea of a small, simple truck wasn't lost on the U.S. truck industry when Ford Rangers, Chevrolet S-10s and Asian counterparts from Toyota and Nissan sold in large numbers during t...

It's a homecoming, of sorts, after many different homes over the past 121 years, landing in a building that stood during the association's founding years. The original stained-glass windows in the main gallery were crafted by Rudy Art Glass, and J. Horace Rudy was one of the association's founding members in 1905, according to Executive Director Roth J. Preap.
