One sure way to achieve this is to under- stand how higher education systems work, to visit colleges and trade schools and to promote a higher education cul- ture. The College Options pro- gram in Shasta and Siskiyou counties does just that. College Options was started nearly a decade ago after a UCLA professor conducted a study in the North State that looked at the low rate of higher education attainment by our resi- dents. A concerned group in Shasta and Siskiyou counties chose to focus attention on the high school level, and College Options was created. Today the program works with high schools, parents and coun- selors, junior highs and more. Learn more at www.collegeop- tions.org. As Expect More Tehama+ began taking shape last fall, Col- lege Options was and contin- ues to be an in v aluable resource. What are A-G requirements? What are col- lege index num- bers? How do middle class par- ents pay for school? What is the culture like at Sacramento State versus UC Davis? What is the dif- Kathy Garcia Kate Grissom Expect More ference between the Cal State schools and the UC system? How do you read a financial aid pack- age? The College Options team has patiently answered questions and pointed us in the right direction, and we’ve always left saying, "We wish we had College Options in Tehama County". Thanks to Rolling Hills Casi- no, the Job Training Center and the McConnell Foundation, our Expect More wish came true. On Aug. 1, College Options’ Lauren Tingley, a Red Bluff resi- dent, began working in Tehama County. Tingley is work- ing at Los Molinos, Corning and Red Bluff high schools. Thank you to those schools for their warm reception of the program. She will also be at Career Day for 8th graders in November and has agreed to sit on the Expect More Steering Committee and the Education Foundation Board. It is with immense pride and excitement that Expect More Tehama+ welcomes Lauren and the College Options Program to Tehama County. Kathy Garcia is the business services and marketing manager of the Job Training Center. Kate Grissom is the director of marketing for Rolling Hills Casino. Construction activity in forest REDDING – Starting in August, construction and road repair projects on the Shasta-Trinity National For- est have resulted in lane restrictions and temporary road closures on routes.

Crews, trucks and heavy equipment will be in the area to replace a culvert with a new bridge. The road will be temporari- ly closed during the 90 day construction period and open only to emergency vehicles. This road is accessed by Highway 3, to County Road 331 which turns into Forest Service road 32N03. Construction will take place where the County Road (331) ends and 32N03 begins and con- tinue the length of the road to the junction of 33N84.
