Norfolk Southern Railway gives Hope College Prep $25,000

Hope College Prep Principal Michael Durr (center) recently accepted a $25,000 donation from Norfolk Southern Railway. The rail company expanded its operation near the school. Ald. Pat Dowell (3rd), whose ward the school sits in, fostered the deal with NSR. The contribution will be used to upgrade the school’s science labs, said Durr.
