GIVING BACK: An end-of-the-year project for the High Ability Learner program at Dudley Elementary focused on leadership and the importance of giving back to the community. Students that met a HAL 900 goal painted columns at Ehmen Park on May 9. They earned a chance to participate in the activity by earning miles instead of grades for HAL projects throughout the year. Some of the students involved in the painting project were, l-r: Tyler Whiting, Collin Brown and Patrick Hudson.
