Will visit us, Oct 19 (6:30p-9:00p) to host another exciting Stargazing Party! Weather permitting (and the forecast looks great) our wonderful friends and volunteer astronomers from LAAS will set-up to share their passion for science during an evening of awe inspiring gazing at the stars. We’ll attempt to catch Mars to the west as it sets around 7:30p. The moon is a waxing crescent as it approaches the Quarter Moon and Sagittarius (with its galactic center) should be to the high southwest. We may also be treated to a possible glimpse of our neighboring galaxy Andromeda (M31) overhead in Pegasus. There’s a good chance of viewing Neptune in Aquarius to the high south and Jupiter’s rising towards the east towards the end of our program. The annual Orionids meteor shower is scheduled to peak during the early morning hours of Sunday, October 21; however, you just might glimpse one after our Stargazing Party has ended!

You are invited to attend a “charrette” for the Eagle Rock Family of Schools tomorrow, October 2, 2012 from 4:00p-6:00p at the Eagle Rock High School Library. As part of the District-wide master planning process, the Facilities Services Division (FSD) has conducted a study of each of the District's properties by high school complex. This was done to capture current conditions on each campus and to identify issues that need to be addressed through construction and modernization projects, and then to create a conceptual master and/or conceptual modernization plan for each campus. At this charrette, or public meeting/workshop devoted to a concerted effort to solve a problem or plan the design of something, facilities planners and outside architects will present their work so that decisions can be made to finalize the conceptual plans. Eagle Rock High School (Library) 1750 Yosemite Dr Los Angeles, CA 90041 Take this opportunity to voice your interests at this very important LAUSD Master Planning Meeting!
