CKM
Prospector now on-line
The CKM student newspaper, the
Prospector, is now available
on-line. Or in it’s words,
“From the very day that C. K.
McClatchy High School opened its
halls in 1937, it has had a
school paper. Throughout the
decades, its form and function
has changed. Now, the Prospector
has finally entered the 21st
century with a website.”
Visit
www.ckmprospector.com for
the latest in student-written
and student-edited news and
opinion. |

Freeport
Boulevard Bike Lane Update
The City of Sacramento is working on
a plan to calm traffic and add bike
lanes along Freeport Boulevard between
Sutterville and 4th Avenue. Approaching
this task has not been without conflict,
especially considering the diverse
interests of business owners, residents,
local commuters, and the students and
parents of CKM, Cal Middle and City
College.
While the repaving and restriping
activities are slated for 2013, the city
started getting public input last fall.
They convened a stakeholder group
representing the various interests.
CKM’s Bike Club and PTSA were part of
this group. City reps also met with
neighborhood groups in Land Park and
Curtis Park, and held a public meeting
at CKM last December.
Now the city is ready for the next phase
– preparing the Environmental Impact
Report (EIR), which involves getting
more stakeholder input on the bike lane
project alternatives. To learn more
about this, attend the Scoping Meeting
on January 25, 6:00 PM in the CKM
Cafeteria. Written comments must be
submitted to the city no later than
February 13, 2012 at 5:00 PM.
