New Unemployment Figures Released for Blair County

What effect has the economic recession had on communities and families in our school district?  How is your family and/or friends and neighbors coping with the recession?

    It seems to have affected our community greatly in the terms everyday needs to Gas their has been a dramatic increase on there prices and it has hit our community hard. I personaly know many of my friends familys have struggled on the subject of how to just get food on their tables due to job pay cuts or just the lack of good buisnes.
