TALKING ABOUT TEACHING —Palo Alto High School math teacher and head of Californias Multi-Tiered Student Support, Deanna Chute, talks about the importance of creating a system where all students can have access to the help that they need to succeed academically and socially. Assistant superintendent Yolanda Conaway echoes Chutes point. The biggest win around MTSS is that we can find students who are struggling early and we dont have to wait for a student to fail for us to do something about it, Conaway said. Photo: Kensie Pao

ASKING AI — A Palo Alto High School student opens Chat GPT on her laptop. Mary Sano, the Social Sciences Department leader at Paly, said that she believes Chat GPT can be useful and increase the efficiency of certain tasks, specifically, adjusting the reading level of primary documents to make them more accessible to students. “There are students who read at different levels, and sometimes, in social studies classes in particular, when we read primary documents, those are challenging,” Sano said. “It’s very time consuming for a teacher to go through and change to change the words so that its more accessible to a struggling reader.” Photo: Cate Graney

Freshman Gavin Zhang was one of many residents living near the site. “I heard that many houses near me had their garages or basements flooded,” Zhang said. “I think Palo Alto was just not prepared for that kind of storm.”
