The headline read, “U.S. Health Officials Are Finally Paying Attention To Palo Alto School Suicides.” Palo Alto is an affluent community in the Silicon Valley, and one of the wealthiest cities in the nation.

The Palo Verde High School Yellow Jackets fell tragically to Imperial High School Tigers, at Friday night’s homecoming game. Dropping to their death by the paws of the Tigers, the game ended with a score of 54-10. However, it wasn’t enough to keep the high spirited incomers, from the class of 1961 to 2011, from experiencing the great joy of seeing one another again. Beginning homecoming festivities Thursday, Nov. 3, the city gathered for a glorious interdenominational worship celebration at

Reading this I couldn't help but think how this exact thing is happening in the Bay Area, specifically East Palo Alto which years ago was a city known for drugs, gangs, violence, and poverty.

For my book love book I read the novel It by Alexa Chung. I chose the book because while looking for one online similar to another book I read that I really enjoyed called Palo Alto by James Franco I found this book as a similar recommendation.
