Three girls swimming for area schools have been nominated for consideration in the National Federation Honor Roll based on their times at last month’s Central Coast Section championship meet.

The designation honors swimmers who have achieved top 10 times in the nation during the previous school year.

Mountain View High sophomore Brooke Bishop is nominated in two events: the 100-yard butterfly and the 100 backstroke. Bishop swam the 100 fly in 54.93 seconds (National Federation standard is 56.50) and the 100 back in 55.21 (56.70).

Homestead has two swimmers nominated: junior Abra Armor in the 50 freestyle and freshman Amber Hovey in the 100 fly. Armor clocked a 24.32 in the 50 free (NF standard is 24.70) and Hovey swam the 100 fly in 55.73.

Only 11 CCS swimmers and divers have been nominated for this honor.

In Our Opinion

Editorial

For the first time in five years, a public elementary school, Gardner Bullis, opened its doors last week in Los Altos Hills. For some, it was, metaphorically speaking, the last stitch removed from the old wound following the closure of the original Bullis-Purissima School in 2003.

For others, including the diehards who formed the successful Bullis Charter School, the sting of the Bullis closure lingers. But our sense is that for most Hills residents not part of the Loyola School coverage area, the opening of Gardner Bullis means the resurrection of a long-sought-after neighborhood school and the community benefits that come with it.
