Changes on Campus Things to do on “Picnic Weekend” Smoke Signals See page 2 Vol. XXXI, No. 1 Sequoia High School Alumni Association Summer 2017 including the alumni of San Carlos High School CHANGES ON CAMPUS Grand Opening of “A” Wing and new Tea Garden The new classroom “A” wing, on the former basketball courts, recently opened and is a new home to English classes previously in adjacent modular classes, and two science classes previously sharing classrooms in the main building. Students are starting to discover its charms as an alternative setting for lunch/brunch, and foot traffic patterns have shifted significantly during passing periods between classes. The new wing is also a temporary home to the Band, Or- chestra, and Choir classes as the performing arts wing under- goes a massive (and long-overdue) renovation and upgrade. Four of the classrooms in the A-Wing were built with retract- able walls to expand into two large rooms which turned out to be a perfect solution for our transitional housing needs of our student musicians. A concern about how the thundering timpani and a hot brass section would disrupt neighboring classes, but the new rooms are virtually sound proof. Principal Sean Priest said, “I was surprised a few weeks ago when I visited the class to speak with Ms. Woodman about the noise and learned, only when I opened the door, the band was in full swing. The A-wing is well-built.” Measure A projects such as the A-Wing and the new performing arts wing (scheduled for completion in Spring 2018) are already changing the dynamic of our campus. We doubled the number of student parking spots. We also doubled the electrical capacity of the campus. We have a new Cu- linary Arts classroom, the flexible learning space in Room 128, and the majestic re-imagining of the Tea Garden. Tea Garden Renovation Because water runoff from the Tea Garden had for years been draining under the school, it was decided to do a ma- jor renovation of the Tea Garden. The drainage has now been fixed, the dead shrubs (after the drought) were re- moved, and the Tea House repainted to match the bright red Andirondack chairs that are interspersed throughout the garden.
