As the school year winds down for the five public schools that make up the La Jolla cluster, their campuses took time for one more celebration: that of Teacher of the Year.
To rousing applause and cheers, Torrey Pines Elementary School Principal Keith Keiper received one of five inaugural Rookie of the Year awards from the San Diego Unified School District on April 10.
Before putting on a cap and gown to mark the end of high school, graduating seniors in La Jolla participated in another graduation tradition: donning their future college’s gear and gathering with their former elementary school classmates at the places where they first got schooled.
