ROTA (Public School System) — The PSS Mental Health Team spearheaded “Luta Color Run on June 11, 2022, Saturday, with the support of partnering community agencies in celebration of Pride
DURING the early months of the Governorâs Council of Economic Advisersâ work, Gov. Ralph DLG Torres and Lt. Gov. Arnold I. Palacios encouraged us to work together to transform the Marianas after a video depicting dilapidated tourist and community sites revealed the real and unfortunate conditions of the facilities on Saipan, Tinian and Rota.
The call drew widespread support from the community. One year later, while also recovering from major catastrophes and the pandemic, through the GCEAâs Public Private Partnership initiative, we have made progress in transforming destination sites and village facilities in the Marianas. What were once condemned facilities have become useful again, providing safe, clean, and comfortable spaces to enjoy. Basketball courts are drawing more youth and adults back for pick-up games in the villages. Beach parks and newly painted pavilions are welcoming families and friends to gather in nature.
STUDENTS from Sinapalo Elementary School and Rota High School brought home cash for winning an art competition conducted by the Department of Community and Cultural Affairs on Rota.
