Sherman Oaks Chefs
Sherman Oaks students win the Campbell Care cooking competition!
Sherman Oaks students have won the Campbell Care cooking competition 2 years in a row!
We won with Green chicken enchiladas this year. Last year's winning recipe was for beef tortas. Thank you Ms Valerie and Ms Casandra for leading and encouraging our young chefs!
Whenever beef tortas have been on the lunch menu, they went super fast. We are so excited to try the green chicken enchiladas, and hope they are listed on the lunch menu soon!
Congratulations Sherman Oaks chefs!
Focus on Safer School Zones
State Assemblymember proposes law to slow speeds and improve safety
A news conference at Castlemont School last week spotlighted the continuing efforts to enhance pedestrian safety around school zones. State Assemblymember Marc Berman introduced Assembly Bill 2583, which would set a speed limit cap of 20 miles per hour in school zones and mandate placing signs indicating the times these lower speeds are in effect.
"Traffic violence is the number one cause of death for California's school-age children,” added Kirsten Bladh, associate director of state policy for Safe Streets for All, who spoke at the news conference.
CA Assemblymember Marc Berman
In reflecting on the tragic traffic accident that took the life of Castlemont student Jacob Villanueva two years ago, Campbell Union School District Superintendent Shelly Viramontez underscored the continuous efforts to improve pedestrian safety around schools.
“We are grateful to the legislators and government agencies who continue to work on solutions,” Viramontez said. “We are committed to working with them to ensure no family endures such a tragedy.”.
With the community rallying behind these vital safety measures, the State Assembly Transportation Committee will make a decision on the progress of Assembly Bill 2583 at its April meeting. Meanwhile, adults can help by exercising extra caution when driving near schools.
District and Schools to Share Results of Annual Survey
