Recovery High
Frederick, like most other counties in Maryland, is facing an opioid crisis that does not discriminate based on age. So, Sean Nicholson and the Phoenix Foundation want to bring a recovery high school to the downtown area as another way to tackle substance use disorder. The high school is slated to open in September 2020 at 117 E. Church St., the current home of Habitat for Humanity of Frederick County. Nicholson joined producer Heather Mongilio to talk about the recovery high school. Then, city editor Allen Etzler and Mongilio give a quick recap of other news in the week before food and education reporter Katryna Perera talks about her latest review. Perera gives out a five-star review to a local Italian market and offers advice for getting one of its signature sandwiches.
