Students walk into the Media Arts Center, a building dedicated towards educating students about media arts including photography, video/audio production, journalism, and more. On Wednesday evening, Palo Alto High School will host an open house in the Media Arts Center to introduce students and parents to journalism and other CTE programs. According to C Magazine and Madrono advisor Brian Wilson, the goal of this open house is to spark the interest of young students in journalism. The goal is just to give people more information about the programs and hopefully get them to the point where they realize that its something that they also want to participate in when theyre in high school, Wilson said.

Environmental lecturer and writer Jeffrey Ball addresses Palo Alto High School Students at the fourth day of career month on Thursday. Recalling his background as a journalist, Ball told students about why it is not always important to have life figured out. “I never ever would have been able to predict where I ended up,” Ball said. “That’s actually a really wonderful thing.”

Brennan-Jobs spoke at length about writing her memoir, Small Fry, and the complex topics from her adolescence that it describes. “I do feel like I’m occupying space in a different way than I did when I started it [Small Fry], and that I’m not running as fast from something, and that I don’t feel embarrassed about myself, Brennan-Jobs said.

A Paly senior examines one of Golden-Globe winning Paly alumnus James Franco’s paintings displayed in the Media Arts Center. Palo Alto Unified School District Interim Supt. Karen Hendricks announced earlier today that administrators will remove Franco’s paintings from the MAC, just days after hiring workers to paint over his mural on the Student Center. “Related to this [the removal of Franco’s first mural in 2016], district staff recently considered the best interests of our students in the light of our educational mission, and decided to remove and return the remaining artwork,” Hendricks wrote.
