Before Spring Break, we had a situation in which a car stopped in the middle of the street to let a child out. The student then crossed the street, directly in front of oncoming traffic. Thankfully, it did not result in an accident or injury.

Please remember to pull over and park before letting your child out of the car. If your child needs to cross the street, use the crosswalk or walk with your child to insure a safe situation for everyone.

Please join the Alta Vista community in a drive for much-needed supplies for the victims of the flooding in the Pajaro and Watsonville areas. From April 19-28, we will be collecting the following:

- Clothing, kids or adults, new or used in good condition

- Blankets, new or used in good conditions

- Gift cards to Target or Safeway * these are critically needed *

- Hand-written notes of support and encouragement - ideally written by our Alta Vista students

Please drop off the clothing and blankets in the bins outside the cafeteria, and please drop off the cards and gift cards to Ms. Salina in the office.

Thank you for your support of this vulnerable population. If you have any questions, please reach out to Claire Kalia, AVHSC VP of Community Service, at clairekalia@gmail.com.
