SAN DIEGO (KGTV) - A year after the first local COVID-19 case was reported, nearly 3,400 lives have been lost to the pandemic.
Elvira Martinez was just 29 when she died in September. Her boyfriend Ricardo Ferreyra says it was love at first sight eight years ago. He was planning to propose on a sailboat.

Today’s job market demands a better-educated workforce than ever before, and jobs in this new economy require more complex knowledge and skills than jobs of the past. So if students want to be prepared for success after high school, they’re going to have to find a way to gain a competitive edge.
That has been the mantra of New Hampshire government, business and education officials over the last decade, and is the momentum behind the state’s Career Readiness Drive for 65 legislation (passed in 2019), which, in part, requires New Hampshire’s high schools to assess student career interest and place them on a pathway to a career credential (which could range from a diesel certificate to an medicine degree). New Hampshire has an economic competitiveness goal that 65% of our working-age population has a workforce-valued credential by 2025.
