It s next to the Scottsboro Electric Power Board building. That s on East Willow Street in Scottsboro. Two people can charge their cars there at one time. The general manager said he s seen people use it every day! We re only two blocks off of the square, and so being that close to the downtown square, we re see a lot of people that come shop at the square and plug their vehicle in while they re shopping, said Phillip Chaney, Scottsboro Electric Power Board general manager.

Students at Head Start programs in Lafayette are returning to in-person classes this week.
The facility on East Willow Street, PRIME TIME Head Start, reopened on Thursday.
Full classroom activities are starting up again, and the staff decided to kick things off with a celebration of Dr. Seuss. At PRIME TIME, we always want to make sure our little ones get as much exposure and opportunities to the world as possible, explained Patricia Jackson and Stalanda Butcher. Doing this in celebration of Dr. Seuss is a wonderful way for us to do this. To get them started having a joy for learning, also a love for reading. Dr. Seuss books are a great way to do that at an early age.
