Hi Ellen, I talked to several of her classmates and many said she wasn't in attendance. Granted,Read More there were a lot of people there. I'll run a post on Monday saying she attended the ceremony. How cool. I wish I would have run into Shea and her mother.

Your video posted above, was it produced by KCat? I would love to buy a copy but haven't seen anyRead More footage (trailer-ish) or reviews on the quality. If this is from KCat, I will be purchasing it. BTW, I've known the twin brothers since they were in kindergarten, and yes, they are remarkable young men. :-)

I'd like to know more about the Lakeside reorg. Why did 17 parcels want to become part of LomaRead More Prieta, and where do their children currently go to school? Why didn't Lakeside residents want to welcome these 17 additional families into their community?
Sheila Sanchez (Editor) May 8, 2013 at 01:30 pm
The parcels are currently in the Lakeside Joint Union School District. The children who live inRead More those parcels are in the attendance area of the LJUSD. The parcels did want to become a part of Loma Prieta. Hope this answers your questions. Thanks for reading and commenting!
Ralph Becker-Szendy May 8, 2013 at 03:37 pm
What Sheila said! Here are a few more details. The neighborhood in question has 5 elementary schoolRead More age students. Three of them attend Lakeside schools (elementary at Lakeside, or middle school through the Lakeside district). Those three children wanted to stay in Lakeside, and their families opposed the transfer. Two other students are the children of the petitioner in this territory transfer. If they wanted to attend Loma Prieta schools, they could do so easily already (either by just enrolling in middle school there, or filing an inter district transfer request, which would be virtually guaranteed to be approved). Instead, those two children are being home schooled.

Yes Sheila that's right many of the Los Gatos residents live closer to Leigh High School than to LosRead More Gatos High School so their kids attend that school.
