    The Modesto, USA Historic Gra!ti Cruise Route evolved over the years, eventually running north and south on McHenry Avenue. The original cruise route was 10th Street. It started as a back-and-forth run from “O” Street to “G” Street that happened every Thursday, Friday and Saturday night. Later, 10th Street became a one-way street and a loop was formed at 10th Street, “G” Street, 11th Street and "nally to “O” Street where Burge’s Drive-In would anchor the turn-around. Burge’s was the inspiration for Mel’s Cruise Stops Drive-In in American Gra!ti.

  • The Show Must Go on Modesto High Continues to Adjust to the Challenges Brought on by the Pandemic
    The Show Must go On Modesto High continues to adjust to the challenges brought on by the pandemic. Schools Reopening: Our Path Forward After almost an entire semester of distance learning, many students, teachers, and parents are eager for schools to reopen for in-person learning. In fact, according to a district survey, 66.75% of grade 7-12 parents said they would send their student back to school if MCS is able to safely transition back to in-person learning. Howev- er, with new cases of the Coronavirus surging, the question remains of how the district will be able to reopen schools while maintaining public health and safety. The school district has been meticulously work- ing on a plan to fulfill students’ and parents’ desires to reopen schools, while keeping safety at the forefront of their decision-making pro- cess. At the board meeting on November ninth, Modesto City Schools approved the “7-12 Safe Schools Reopening Plan.” According to the plan, students will be divided into two cohorts, groups A and B, which will attend in-person classes on different days. The district will also focus on enforcing mask-wearing and sanitizing practices during school hours. Carson Carranza, the Student Representative to the Board, supported the decision, stating that, “The longer we stay in distance learning, the more students are going to fall behind… these numbers keep slipping.” He elaborated by bring- ing attention to the fact that failing grades have nearly doubled during distance learning. Currently, grades TK-6 have already returned to in-person learning, which has proved to be suc- cessful thus far.
