 Image from article Menlo School hits the mark with \'camp chic\'

Matt Moore, son of co-chair Jan Soderstrom, both at left, and Lee Taylor, son of co-chair Libby Taylor, both shown right, prepare to model “camp chic” fashions from Bloomingdale’s at Menlo School’s 55th annual benefit April 15. The event raised more than $250,000 for scholarships, teachers’ programs and general school needs. About $50,000 of the total will be used for Internet connections, smart whiteboards and other electronic teaching aids for classrooms. Menlo School is a co-ed private middle and high school in Atherton that is attended by approximately 760 Bay Area students, a number of whom live in Los Altos or Los Altos Hills.

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.
