LINN—The Central District Coalition for Roadway Safety awarded Linn High School (LHS) a $400 Project Graduation grant to assist with Project Graduation, a drug and alcohol-free after graduation celebration. Schools that participated in the ‘It Only Takes One’ seatbelt competition were eligible to apply for the Project Graduation grant, which included cash, gift cards and educational incentives that remind students to buckle up and drive safely. Meramec Regional Planning Commission (MRPC), a member of the Central District Coalition for Roadway Safety, presented the incentives to seniors and their parents, who are planning the all-night event, along with school administrators including (front row, left) Lyndsi Vaughan, Makayla Koenigsfeld, (back row, left) class sponsor Sharlet Peterson, seniors Justin Peterson, Hailey Niekamp, Tony Mebruer, Ben Klebba, Andrew Sullentrup, Kennedy Wethington and LHS Principal Dr. Melinda Aholt.
