March 21, 2019
Palo Alto High School students gathered for a climate change rally after school on Friday. Around 20 to 30 Paly students marched to the corner of Embarcadero and El Camino with signs to advocate for government action against climate change. Executive Director of Grassroots Ecology Alex Von Feldt and Reverend Eileen Altman spoke about this issue at the event.
Tens of thousands of students around the nation participated in this rally at their schools, according to KCBX.

According to Yu, expenditure changes are the primary reason for the deficit. “[Compared to the adopted budget], certificated salaries are up $18.8 million (which translates to 13.4%), classified salaries are up $11 million (or 17%), benefits are up $5.6 million and all other objects are down $2.9 million,” Yu said. “These are settled agreements with our bargaining partners. They are contractual obligations and they are the primary driver of the change.”](https://palyvoice.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/budget-presentation-300x225.jpeg)
