Nightline ABC recently did a segment on the Locke Transformation. Animo Locke II was featured in the segment. Many of our staff members were in the Nightline story, including Mrs. Alexander, our principal. Also, the Nightline ABC took a look at 3 students in depth. Brandon Stanford, a 10th grader here at Locke II, was one of those students. Great work Animo Locke II!
