Senior Cameron Phillips splashes on a makeshift Slip N Slide set up during lunch yesterday on Palo Alto High Schools Quad. This watery fun was part of Field Day, a carnival-themed event hosted by the Associated Student Body, and also offered free desserts and game booths. According to senior Phela Durosinmi, Field Day was an enjoyable way to spend a sunny day. Its fun, because I just finished my last final, and theyre giving out free ice cream — everybody likes ice cream — and they let us have a slip n slide, while last year they closed it down, Durosinmi said.

Sophomore Jacob Kinsky drinks water from one of Palo Alto High Schools water fountains. Kinsky said he is not concerned about the quality of Palys water. “I get thirsty a lot and I like to drink water but I dont really know very much about lead poisoning and how that problem works, Kinsky said.  “I don’t really notice anything and I feel like the water is perfectly fine as is.

Congress Delegate Kimberly Teehee speaks to the audience about the Cherokee Nations fight for federal recognition during the Social Justice Pathway mural reveal in the evening on Monday in front of the 800s building. According to Teehee, she is grateful to Paly for providing the students with the opportunities and resources to impact their community. “I think it [the mural] says a lot about this school and how it nurtures and fosters students ideas,” Teehee said. “I think [it] will impact students and teachers every time [they] walk by this mural. Theyll know it because this institution gave the students the environment to thrive and finish a project like this and not hold them back. To me, it speaks volumes to how you foster young minds in teaching them, how to work together and how to come together, and put a project together from beginning to end. (Photo: Kristine Lin)
