Although I can't guarantee that we'll have time to answer all submitted questions, I will try to prioritize those that may have great interest and relevance to many families.

WOODSIDE PARENT EDUCATION SERIES
Distracted Driving Workshop
Kelly Browning, PhD, Impact Teen Drivers (California Highway Patrol)
Thursday, January 14, 2016, 7 to 9 pm
Woodside High School, Multi-Use Room (MUR)
Automobile collisions are the leading cause of death for our nation's teens. The overwhelming majority of these crashes are caused by inexperience or distractions, not "thrill-seeking" or deliberate risk-taking. Teen drivers are at the highest risk; the crash rate (per miles driven) for 16-year-olds is four times that of adults.
In this workshop, you will learn about:
- Strategies to keep your teens safe on the road
- Graduated Drivers Licensing (GDL) laws
- The rules of the road for teen drivers
- How YOU can stop the #1 killer of teens in America--reckless and distracted driving
Since 2007, Impact Teen Drivers has emerged as a leading nonprofit organization dedicated to reversing the pervasive yet 100% preventable crisis of "distracted driving." Impact's mission is to change the culture of teen driving, thereby saving lives in this and future generations of drivers.
Parents, students, faculty/staff, and community members welcome! Free admission. Spanish interpretation available. For any questions about the Parent Education Series, contact Charlene Margot, Series Director, at cmargot@csmconsulting.net or (650) 868-0590. For Spanish, contact Maricela Lopez, Bilingual Parent Liaison, at (650) 367-7263, ext. 45323.

Girls Varsity Soccer
On Tuesday, the M-A Varsity Girls upset Capuchino with 5-0 win!! M-A played strong and had great coordinated plays and passes that helped keep Capuchino guessing the entire game. M-A scored first, when Katie Guenin knocked it in with an assist by Josephine Cotto in the first five minutes. Cotto then quickly scored with a nice assist from Sarah Mcleod. Talia Missan showed great tenacity while stealing the ball and quickly made the third goal for the Bears. She fought hard by jumping over the goalie as the ball fell from the keepers hands and then jumped over to tap it in to the goal. In the second half, Guenin was fed the ball from Nichole Salz and easily shot it in for another goal. Molly Briggs and Ali Sivilotti showed great strength in defending and had some nice long passes up the field. With five minutes left to play, Mcleod fed the ball to Guenin who made the 5th goal for M-A and resulted in a hat trick with her third goal of the game!
Thursday, M-A played valiantly against Carlmont but were outscored 5-2 despite numerous strong shots by the Bears on the Carlmont goalie. The Bears started off strong in the game with several strong attempts on goal, but Carlmont was able to score within the first 10 minutes. Both Kasey Love and Alisson Galbraith had great defensive plays in the first half but Carlmont continued to score. With 5 minutes left in the first half, Missan was able to secure the ball and pass it over to Salz, who was able to shoot it in for the first goal for M-A. In the second half,the Bears were able to score again with a beautiful pass from McLeod up to Guenin who was able to fire it into the net after the ball was deflected by the goalie on the first attempt.
This makes M-A 1-1-0 in PAL league play with two games to play next week. On Tuesday the Bears will play at Burlingame at 4pm, and on Thursday, M-A will host Aragon at M-A at 4pm. |

SERIES EDUCATIVAS PARA PADRES DE WOODSIDE
"Taller sobre la conducción distraída"
presentado por Kelly Browning, PhD, Impact Teen Drivers (California Highway Patrol/Patrulla de Carreteras de California)
Jueves 14 de enero de 2016. 7:00 a 9:00 pm.
Woodside High School, Sala Multi-Usos (MUR)
¡Padres, estudiantes, miembros de la facultad/ empleados
y miembros de la comunidad son bienvenidos!
Interpretación en español estará disponible. Entrada gratis.
Los choques automovilisticos son la principal causa de muerte en los adolescentes de nuestra nación. La mayor parte de estos accidentes al volante son el resultado de la falta de experiencia o de distracciones y no de la búsqueda de experiencias emocionantes o de un deseo de tomar riesgos deliberados. Los conductores adolescentes tienen un alto riesgo: la tasa de choques (por millas recorridas) ocasionados por conductores de 16 años es cuatro veces la de los acasionados por adultos.
En este taller usted aprenderá asuntos referentes a:
- Estrategias para mantener a sus adolescentes seguros en la carretera.
- Leyes relacionadas con Graduated Drivers Licencing o GDL (Licencias para Conductores Graduados).
- Reglas de la Carretera para conductores adolescentes.
- Como puede USTED detener el asesino de adolescentes #1 en los Estados Unidos - - Conducción distraida e imprudente.
Desde el año 2007, Impact Teen Drivers (Impacto a Conductores Adolescentes) ha surgido en liderazgo como una organización sin ánimo de lucro dedicada a revertir la penetrante y al mismo tiempo 100% prevenible crisis de "conducción distraída". La misión de Impact es cambiar la cultura de la conducción en adolescentes y así salvar vidas en ésta y en futuras generaciones de conductores.
Las Series Educativas para Padres de Woodside están patrocinadas por la Woodside PTSA, El Sequoia Healthcare District, y El Sequoia Union High School District.
