To the community,

The first day at Mt. Tallac School started with a big bang! The school day began with a community meet and greet.

The businesses and community members in attendance were: Joy Barney, Oscar Ortega, Megan Dee-U.S. Forest Service; Alberto Caballero-Generation Green; Scott Leonard-Leonard, Garrick Terveer-Gas Construction; Pete Van Arnum-El Dorado Sheriff’s Office; Sally Williams-South Lake Tahoe Juvenile Treatment Center; Hannah Greenstreet-Live Violence Free; Melinda Steanns, John Rice, Scott Justice-Sierra-at-Tahoe; Eric Campbell-Bank of the West; Ivove Larson-Lake Tahoe Unified School District; Dede Aspero-Hard Rock Hotel and Casino; Rich Barna, Anna Nioten-Tahoe Turning Point; Maxene Harlow–Knit-Crocket-Spin; Rebbeca Del Pozo-Harrah’s and Harveys; Ed Cook-Ed Cook Tree Service; Alan Barichievich-Barton Hospital Rehab and Sports Medicine; and last but not least, Stan Larson, Barbara Bannar-community members.

Not only had our school been visited by the many businesses and community members listed above, but we were provided snacks from Ellie McCall from the business Chase International.

All of the Tallac staff and students feel very thankful for the time these businesses had taken out of their day, and the snacks that was provided for the meet and greet. With all of our hearts and soul, thank you.

    Kalayna is not only very articulate but has become a fixture at The Attic where she volunteers after school. I’m sure there are many more like her….her enthusiasm and forward looking….at Mt. Tallac. Thanks, community members for the support.

    Kudos to the community leaders and business personnel that realize the importance of making a connection with these amazing kids. As far as Kalayna goes……..I’d love to have her in our Soroptimist group when she’s done with school!!!!!!
