Parkland is very proud of Ryan MacNeill who has been awarded a $40,000 post-secondary scholarship with The Cmolik Foundation in recognition of her achievements in overcoming adversity and excelling in her studies.  The award recognizes and honours Ryan's hard work and commitment and is keen to support her as she embarks upon her post-secondary studies with the goal of becoming a social worker.  The Cmolik Foundation believes in the power of education to transform a student's life journey--in addition to providing the required funding they will also provide Ryan with a mentor and a supportive community.  Way to go Ryan!

We are very proud of WSANEC artist Sara Jim (Parkland Grad 2014) who is doing some amazing projects in the community.  Check out her website at https://www.sarahjimstudio.com/

Parkland's Outdoor Education class showed off their impressive fire building skills. Using only materials found in the area, they built fires and cooked some food - a skill needed when backpacking on the trail. Pouring rain couldn't dampen the spirits of this resilient group!
