Calaveras Students Walk Out For Safer Schools Despite Disciplinary Action ~ Tricia Slavik
Posted by: thepinetree on 03/14/2018 05:20 PM
Angels Camp, CA...Seventy students walked out of Bret Harte Union High School for 17 minutes today to demand a safer school, despite being handed detentions following the walk-out. Although the number seems small, it represents about 15% of the student body. The effort was led by Devyn Pryor, Riley Lowell and Claudia Loomis - all excellent students and not used to serving detention. The students were supported by a handful of parents and many passers-by honking in support. There were a few distractors who chose to use vulgar hand signals to express their opinions.

Arnold, CA...Make Plans to Attend Meet & Greets With Supervisor Michael Oliveira. In the first three years of my first four-year term as Supervisor for District 3 in Calaveras County, I am engaged in several areas regarding the welfare and the prosperity of Calaveras county. Those areas include the County budget, crime in the entire County and specifically in District 3, the business community, the building industry, the general plan update, our youth opportunities, our tourism and more importantly, the recent involvement of the regulation of cannabis and recreational use allowed by the state effective this year.
