Grateful to volunteers

Dear Editor,

What a great community we live in. I would like to thank the volunteers who donated their time and expertise to help with Tonasket Choice High School’s “mock” job interviews. Students in ninth, tenth and eleventh grade participated in the interview process for jobs ranging from Ultrasound technician to Mechanic and from a fan fiction author to travel agent.

We would like to thank Shawna Poletti, Bob Raymer, Leah Palmer, Mary Engle, Ephraim Brown and Preston Ray. Great leaders like you help mold the students in our community into successful leaders of tomorrow. Thank you.
