Thinking Out Loud Topanga’s Independent Voice Since 1976 “WE’RE CONFUSED!” Our community has given us feedback and, in the way it’s supposed to work, we’re listening. It seems readers can’t wrap their Publisher / Editor minds around Topanga as a two-newspaper town. As a result, we Flavia Potenza receive emails complaining that readers can’t find a particular article and the reason is we didn’t publish it. It was the “other paper.” Associate Editor We’ve experienced some confusion ourselves as we’ve struggled Kait Leonard to define The Canyon Chronicle and how it differs from the Topanga New Times. Thanks to your feedback, we finally decided on a tag Creative Director line: “Topanga’s Independent Voice Since1976.” Look at it. Savor it. Nira Lichten It carries a lineage and a legacy in that statement. To our point, we have one foot in our past and our sights set in Media Director the future. Admittedly, the Canyon Chronicle has only been around T.E. Zeri for two months, five editions. There’s certainly no legacy or lineage there. Creative Consultant I was the founding editor of the Topanga Messenger in 1976; that Eiffel Nazaryan is the through line to the now. It’s not about me and some egotistical out-of-control drive to keep creating newspapers. It’s about ensuring that the service a newspaper provides has a solid business foundation Contributors that anyone with an independent spirit, open mind, and the required skills can pick up and carry on. Linda Ballou She may hate me for saying this, but Mary Colvig was the rock who kept the Topanga Messenger going Joel Bellman for 40 years. By 2016, no one was in the line of succession and the paper was struggling. In a gallant Annemarie Donkin flourish, she closed the business 40 years to the day on which it was first published, December 1, 2016, Kathie Gibboney and left a legacy that was not about her alone, but a community. Paula LaBrot R.I.P. Topanga Messenger—1976-2016. The community was shocked, people were depressed at losing Amy Weisberg something so entwined with their lives. Fast forward now to The Canyon Chronicle. I have no idea what drove me so hard to continue a Social Media Intern newspaper in Topanga for a third time—the work is demanding, and I certainly have no aspirations to Miranda Anapol die at my desk—but it seemed essential to carry it forward. Thus, the Messenger Mountain News, which lived for three years, and is not yet gone but lurking in the shadows until its owners can come to an Copy Editor / Distribution agreement to exorcise it. Ellie Carroll But look what sprouted from the moldering bones of the Messenger Mountain News. Topanga has two publications! Contact US I won’t speak for the Topanga New Times, the “interim, not-a-newspaper,” as Bonnie Morgan proclaimed in its seminal editorial. Whatever it is, they seem to be having fun. [email protected] As for The Canyon Chronicle, we have our own path. Be assured we are not negating any prospect General inquiries: of fun. We are building on a lineage that began with the Topanga Journal* in 1946. That gives rise now [email protected] to the understanding of what it means to have a community working with you. It also testifies to the Advertising inquiries: integrity and dedication to journalistic standards inherent in the responsibility of such an endeavor. [email protected] Here’s a thought: We have two coffee shops in Topanga, why not two papers? Wrap your mind around P.O. Box 1101 that one. Topanga, CA 90290 Meanwhile, we hope The Canyon Chronicle will live up to the values set before us: “Topanga’s (310) 460-9786 Independent Voice.” n The Canyon Chronicle is an *The Topanga Journal was published by Hugh Harlan from 1946-1952.

  • Solar Panel Installation Begins at Canoga Park High School
    Solar Panel Installation Begins At Canoga Park High School (Los Angeles, CA) Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD) School Board President Mónica García, Board Member Tamar Galatzan and LAUSD Superintendent Ramon C. Cortines were among the speakers at an event to launch the installation of a high-efficiency solar power system at Canoga Park High School today. Canoga Park High School, located in Galatzan's district, is the first LAUSD school in the Los Angeles Department of Water & Power's (LADWP) coverage area to have a system generating clean, renewable solar power installed. "Today we flip the first switch in our mission to make LAUSD the greenest school district in America," School Board President Monica Garcia said. "It starts in Canoga Park and downtown, but by 2012 schools from here to Wilmington will have solar panels teaching our students a hands-on lesson in green energy." "Canoga Park High is among a number of LAUSD facilities that are actively engaged in the battle against global warming," said Galatzan, who represents the school on the board. "The installation of solar panels at Canoga and other schools across the District is a significant development in the ongoing effort to improve the environment in Southern California." "From recyclable goods to buses that run on 'green' fuel to solar systems on rooftops, we are committed to finding ways to transform LAUSD to be more efficient today in order to build a sustainable and secure future for our students," Superintendent Cortines said. LAUSD plans to install 50 megawatts of solar power by 2012. Within the next six months, solar systems will be installed at the following additional sites: Ann Street Elementary School, Banning High School, Edward R.

DESCRIPTORS *Academic Aspiration; College Bound Students; College Entrance Examinations; Course Selection (Students); *Educational Experience; *High School Graduates; High Schools; Questionnaires; *Student Attitudes; Student Employment; Student Surveys; Tables (Data); *Urban Education IDENTIFIERS *Los Angeles Unified School District CA ABSTRACT This report provides information on the educational experiences and plans of the Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD) (California) 1997 graduates. Seniors from regular, continuation, and opportunity high schools and schools of choice and for handicapped students were surveyed. In October 1996, there were 27,387 seniors in the LAUSD schools. Of these, 15,496 completed questionnaires for the survey. Approximately half of these students held part-time jobs while in high school. A large percentage took general academics (48%) and college preparatory courses (48%), and only 4% took vocational courses. Over 16% of these seniors had taken English-as-a-Second-Language courses. As of one month before graduation, 51% of the seniors had taken the Scholastic Assessment Tests and 20% had taken the ACT Assessment. About 36% of the seniors planned to attend 4-year colleges and 25% planned to attend 2- year colleges. Seniors noted their teachers and the quality of education as the best features of their schools, and they rated all areas of their instruction as close to "above average." While they considered their schools' reputations, spirit, and instructional programs as "average," they rated the condition of their school buildings and classrooms as slightly "below average." Appendixes contain tables of study data and the student survey.
