6:06 am
parents and neighbors. according to the school's website, castilleja is the only independent school for grades 6-11 with a heft i have ti price tag. tuition $38,200 per student. they have been permitted to have 415 girls and it's lived by this enrollment cap until now. for the upcoming school year it has enrolled 448. so they are over by 33 students. it may not seem like a lot, but to these neighbors it certainly is. according to the palo alto daily news, they're upset because they say parking is already a huge problem and now they're worried about more noise and pollution. what happens now? today the school is submitting a report applying for a new permit to allow for the extra students and to prove it does have a plan for the additional traffic. in the meantime, to help address community concerns, castilleja is holding a meeting tonight and neighbors, yes, they are encouraged to attend.
6:07 am
if you are interested, that meeting is scheduled for 5:00 right here on school grounds. ultimately in the very end the school could end up being fined for the over enrollment issue. just how much is yet to be determined. one way or another, a decision by the city has to be made soon because the school year starts up in just ten days on august 26. coming up in my next report, i'll talk about the plan the school has to deal with the overcrowding issue. live in palo alto, marla tellez, "today in the bay." not just palo alto starting the school. it's the first day of class for public schools in morgan hill. >> yea, kids. we have a look at the forecast. >> we cheer because we don't have to go back to school. >> parents are probably cheering. let's check in with meteorologist christina loren. >> you get to show off the new duds, new shoes. 64 in livermore, 62 in oakland and 63 to kickoff a thursday in san francisco.
