Everyone has a story...
Since last Spring, 4th graders at Milford Elementary have been following the journey of Milford graduate, K'lena Schnack, as she hikes the Pacific Coast Trail. The trail is 2,650 miles from the border with Mexico to the border of Canada and passes through California, Oregon, and Washington. K'lena began her journey on April 18th at the Mexican border. She is now in Washington State and expects to reach the Canadian border sometime in September. This week, we celebrated K'lena by adding a message to our reader board and sending a card with encouraging messages. Our students are proud of the story she is writing.
