Grandparents program at school

In Crittenden County School District, there are several grandparents raising their grandchildren, which is the basis for a new school outreach program.

"We have formed a Grandparent Group that meets bi-monthly," said Holly White, public information director for the school district. "The first meeting will be at 1:30 p.m., on Feb. 17 at Rocket Arena."

Any person raising children that are not biologically theirs is invited to attend.

"We cover a variety of issues and try to find resources for you," said White.
