Throughout her education, from Head Start and elementary school, to jr. high here in Hydaburg, Mona participated in numerous activities such as student body, sports, youth core, and helping her single mother raise her siblings. She graduated from Hydaburg high school in 2001 and for eight years has worked as a stay-at-home mom, raising her wonderful children – Justin (8), her oldest; Janet (6); and her baby Jay (1).
Mona is now employed at the HBC, working for Charles as an administrative assistant. Mona is here to help, and chances are – if you call the business center – her’s is the first voice you’ll hear.
