The upcoming Tea with Teachers event offers students a virtual way to connect with Palo Alto High School teachers and discuss shared interests at lunch on Friday. According to senior Cindy Lui, the Associated Student Body treasurer and member of the Tea with Teachers planning committee, the goal of the event is to give students an opportunity to get to know both their own teachers and others that they may have in the future. “Hopefully, it will increase the sense of community at Paly, especially between underclassmen, especially freshmen, and the teacher community,” Lui said. “I hope this opportunity will be a chance for them to know each other better and spark some dialogues between the two, which I feel like rarely intersect except in a typical classroom setting.” Photo: Paly ASB

Shifting locations during COVID-19, the Palo Alto High School Wellness Center has quickly adapted to new spaces — both physical and virtual. Wellness Outreach Officer Whitney Aquino said that although the Wellness Center staff is unable to check on students in the same way they normally would, they are offering resources to ensure that students feel supported.

Junior Nisha Mata uses resources from her post high school planning folder, which she received at Palo Alto High School’s College and Career Center Orientation. After her orientation, Mata met with a Paly college advisor to discuss post-Paly plans, and Mata said the meeting provided her with helpful information and advice. “Before the meeting, I knew roughly what I had to do, but I didn't know how to follow through with it or actually do it,” Mata said. “She [Mata’s advisor] went over the specific steps of what I should start doing and how I should start preparing. … I definitely think I would go back if I have questions.”
