Students at Coal Mountain Elementary will return to a new and improved outdoor area when the school year begins Aug. 11. About 50 volunteers from the staff of Browns Bridge Community Church came out Wednesday to help the school’s special education department make upgrades to the outdoor classroom. Crystal Lee, a special education teacher, said the improvements included installing several raised beds that will be used to grow vegetables.
