La Jolla Elementary School welcomed students back last week with a major spruce-up of the campus. The Bloom committee renovated the landscaping on the Marine Street Entryway, adding new benches, decorative planters and trash containers as well as a variety of drought-tolerant plants and high-traffic turf in the lawn area. The school exteriors painting by Ariel Lopez and his team from M. Chavis Painting will continue after school hours and on weekends. Bloom operates in conjunction with the Friends of La Jolla Elementary Inc., supported by the PTO and in partnership with the San Diego Unified District.
