A reception to celebrate the completion of the Community Health Awareness Council’s “Back to Our Future” mural project is scheduled for Friday at Mountain View City Hall.

Through the Community Health Awareness Council, local youth have created “Back to Our Future,” a mural that will be displayed at Mountain View City Hall. An opening and small reception for the project completion is scheduled 3:30-6 p.m., Friday, at city hall, 500 Castro St.

The non-profit organization, which provides counseling services to high school-age students, created the “Back to Our Future” mural project “to instill hope for our local youth to offset their concerns regarding the war in Iraq,” according to project coordinator Charlotte Davis. “The mural project was a way to enlist middle school and high school youth to create a visual art expression of a bright future for themselves and their posterity.

“The mural is a quilt of individual expression, in which each person has painted (his or her) own unique perspective of what (he or she) want to convey to others,” said Davis.

For more information about the “Back to Our Future” Mural Project, call 965-2020, ext. 18.

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.
