Freshmen, part of Palo Alto High School’s TEAM program, are shoveling excess weeds at Gamble Gardens as part of Paly Service Day. Paly Service Day is an annual event where students are able to participate in community service, but has been canceled for the past two years due to COVID-19. “This year's Service Day was a lot more different because it was finally in person,” YCS-Interact co-president Simona Yau-Chan said.
