Kara Tonight Kara begins a drop-in group exclusively for students of Gunn and Paly who are experiencing grief issues realted to or exacerbated by the recent student deaths at the train crossing. I hope we have many, many kids taking advantage of this opportunity. So important that they find a safe place ...to talk and/or listen to one another. I'm so proud of all that Kara is doing for our community.
