The Barron Park Elementary School PTA raises funds to support special programs within our school such as our Library, School Garden and Maker Studio; to host student educational assemblies; provide classroom supplies for our students, and most importantly, we issue field trip and after-school scholarships to students who cannot otherwise afford them. Barron Park Elementary School has approximately 30% socio-economically disadvantaged students, and we raise funds and issue scholarships to ensure all students at our school are able to access the same quality educational experiences and opportunities.

Posting for Jim Davis at the Valero Service Station, El Camino and Los Robles:

On Thursday November 8th, to celebrate 36 years in business in Barron Park, from 8 am till 2 pm, I will be having coffee, doughnuts, snacks, pizzas and other refreshments at my service station. Of course I will have Roses on hand to show my appreciation. This invitation extends to all my customers, present and past, in Barron Park and nearby, and the Barron Park, Juana Briones, Fletcher, and Gunn school communities. My contact phone is 650-303-3390. Thanks. Jim Davis

The upcoming, long standing, bimonthly senior lunch will be on Tuesday, April 10, 2018 at the Corner Bakery at 1:00 PM.

Corner Bakery is at 3375 El Camino Real on the corner of Fernando with plenty of parking space either in front or behind the restaurant.

The Corner Bakery is cafeteria style. Each of us pays for our own lunch selection at the counter. They will deliver our order to the table. The prices are modest, no tips involved, and we even get a senior discount. If you want to look at the menu in advance, go towww.cornerbakerycafe.com. There are printed menus available when we come in.

The sandwiches are rather large, so a Combo of half sandwich with salad or cup of soup is also good. Tossed salads are large and most of us have discovered that the smaller size, Cafe, is generous and just right.

Although not required, just show up is OK, it would be good to know number of us likely to arrange tables. Please reply to pklausm@mac.com or leave me a message at 650 303 6893 anytime.

For anyone needing a ride it can be arranged.

Hoping to see many there. The interactions are always fun and interesting. Peter K. Mueller
