A story of resilience at a time of tragedy
Of late, I have been thinking about how vulnerable our students are. At Sobrato this year we have now had two tragic events affect our student population. In the fall, there was the shooting death of Tara Romero, along with the injuries of three other students. And now it is three weeks since the disappearance of Sierra LaMar, who was abducted while walking to the school bus stop the morning of March 16. Of course we are all hoping that she will be safely returned to her family. Â

Centered on compassion
CHEERS for the opening of the Gilroy Compassion Center which is now operating during daylight at 8425 Monterey Road. It's the first step in what organizers hope becomes a full-service shelter in the storm for the homeless. For now, it's a place to pick out a donated coat, get a cup of coffee, make a phone call or take a break on the couch while the children play with donated toys. The hours are from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Volunteers and donations are needed. Visit gccsoco.org to find out how you can help.
