$125 Ticket for Jaywalking
The Alhambra Police Department will be conducting random patrol to issue citations for jaywalking. That’s a $125.00 ticket for illegally crossing the street without using assigned crosswalks. Pedestrians beware! Use the crosswalks at Hellman & Almansor, and Hellman & Rural!
Lunch
On a trial basis, effective today, we are allowing students to use the Aztec Plaza (the area immediately outside the Math Wing, through the Breezeway, but not beyond the ramps) during lunch. Students can access the vending machines outside the gym, but must return to the Palza area after making the purchase, and take care of your lunch trash properly. All buildings remain off limits, with the exception of accessing Guidance, offices, and the Library. Teachers and Club Advisors must issue lunch passes for students to be allowed to enter buildings. - Mr. Douglas, Student Services
