Cascade’s Davis selected as Bridge Builder for community work

Regina Davis, student resource specialist in PCC Prep at Cascade, has been selected as a Bridge Builder, one of nine educators locally who have helped promote academic excellence and college access for young people. She will be recognized for her contribution to Bridge Builders at the Bridge Builders Black History Month Celebration Friday, Feb. 23 at the University of Portland.

Portland’s Bridge Builders commemorates the act of nine teenagers who courageously integrated Little Rock’s Central High School fifty years ago. All year long, Bridge Builders will commemorate this piece of history by recognizing outstanding people in Portland. Davis is one of nine people to be recognized here in Portland who have in some way helped shape the Bridge Builders program into one that promotes academic excellence and prepares its participants for college. Kudos to Regina!
