Students from the Rosie the Riveter Charter High School were out in the 5th Council District starting their project to help spruce up the look on streets by repainting house numbers on curbs.
The students are getting volunteer service hours from their school to work on this project. They will do this every other Monday until we get the house numbers repainted of those residents who agree to let them do it.
The service is free and helps our public safety personnel find houses quicker. Volunteers from Meals on Wheels also tell me they would appreciate seeing the numbers repainted because they often have trouble finding an address.
Again, it is free but I do encourage residents to make a tax deductible contribution to the charter high school of $10.
