Milpitas Unified School District's Board of Education recognized winners from the Santa Clara County Alliance of Black Educators' 28th Annual Student Recognition Program during its June 13 meeting.

By Amanda Montoro Fourth grade teacher at Alexander Rose Elementary School Fourty-three excited students experienced the great outdoors Saturday, March 4 when the Milpitas Rotary Club sponsored them for the 19th Annual Fishing in the City event. Two fish were caught by patient fisherwomen: Viridiana Falcon and Grace Liu. The barbecue, enjoyed by all, assured that no one went home disappointed. Special thanks to Officer Eric Emanuelle and Superintendent Cheryl Jordan for making this trip possible for our kiddos. |
