Everyone is headed back to school after a relaxing winter break. I personally haven’t stopped moving. Parenting = 24-hour job. I’m excited to get back into the swing of things at Madison College and work on making a difference in our community.

My writing for Spring Semester 2020 will be focused on reaching out to our listed resources both on and off campus. I will be finding the answers to all your questions and even a few of mine!

I encourage everyone to email me with any questions you want answered or any topics you want to read about. Try your best to keep the topics within our parent/student subject. If I get something off subject, I might still find the answer, I am a journalism student after all.

In the meantime, I’ve listed some updated resources.

Destiny Hines is a Journalism Major currently enrolled in the Liberal Arts transfer program at Madison College and a proud parent of two very busy boys. Each issue of The Clarion, Wolfpack Parents column will provide parenting support for our Wolf Pack Parents. To reach Ms. Hines with questions and suggestions for future topics, please email her at [email protected].
