Joan MacDonald has been named the 2005 Community Service Award winner by the Silicon Valley Association of Realtors Los Altos-Mountain View District.

The Mountain View resident, who taught English at Foothill and De Anza colleges for 36 years, is one of the founders of the Community Health Awareness Council and has been on the board of the counseling organization since its beginning in 1973.

MacDonald also has been involved in the Mountain View-Whisman School District and with the Mountain View-Los Altos Union High School District.

The award, in its 42nd year, honors those whose efforts are deemed to enhance the quality and character of the local communities.

MacDonald will be honored May 11 at an awards luncheon at Michael’s at Shoreline in Mountain View. For more information, log on to www.silvar.org or call 949-9115.

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.
