“Mrs. Gina Cole was presented with a grant from Western Governors University today! The money will go towards supplies needed for her Biology 105 course for seniors which also counts as dual credit through Sauk Valley Community College. The project that will benefit the most from this funding is her DNA editing unit - a favorite of this year's seniors.
Pictured here is her Advanced Biology class who got to take a break from their final to help her receive the honor!"
