Education
More than 200 children at Harkins Elementary in Miramichi are learning to love reading, thanks to a community-based literacy program that brings volunteer mentors into their school. The Department of Education is building on that support by designating the K-5 school as one of two new community schools in District 16, Education Minister Kelly Lamrock announced during a visit to the school today.
