Sunnyvale high school student signs NCAA letter of intent
"BASIS Independent Silicon Valley held its first-ever NCAA signing day ceremony Feb. 4, when senior tennis standout Michelle Ge signed her letter of intent to continue her athletic career at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. "This moment means so much to me," said Ge. "MIT represents everything I've worked toward ... excellence in the classroom and on the court." Ranked in the Top 200 nationally for the class of 2026, Ge rose to as high as 55th. She racked up a record of 130-55 during high school and helped lead the Sunnyvale private high school's tennis program to an undefeated season."
"Charlie Olson, the longtime operator of Sunnyvale's Heritage Orchard, recently announced his retirement. Olson is a third-generation farmer in Sunnyvale who has cared for the 10-acre apricot orchard at the community Center under contract with the city since 1977. He plans to step down in mid-April. City staff is evaluating options for managing the orchard, including working with existing staff. The city said there are no changes planned to the orchard at this time and no impacts to its existing footprint in the near term, adding that any future plans will include public input opportunities."
