One of the students involved with the program made a funny public service announcement to go with the littering campaign. Jonah Sachs shot and edited out of STUDIO LAB class. Teacher Nancy Fracchiola said that so far there has been a 33% reduction in litter this past week!
Resident Cindy Kirven, the president of the Village Green nonprofit said, “Last Thursday, I was picking up trash from the fountain, under benches, etc. and a student said, ‘Pick It Up, Pali.’ At the time, I didn’t understand the reference. The first step in change is awareness. Thanks to all the students who are aware and help protect our environment by just picking up litter.”
CALIFORNIA FLAG
One alert reader sent the following photo and said that Palisades Elementary School’s flag is missing its bear.
DOG TEETH CLEANING
There’s a new vet at Pacific Palisades Veterinary Center, Dr. Bart Bottoms. The family’s two small dogs needed extractions. Dr. B spent a long time explaining everything and then after the procedure spent more time with us. He answered every question and went above and beyond in explaining about dental problems in dogs. Check him out if you need someone who is knowledgeable and compassionate. The clinic is located at 853 Via de la Paz.
