Sita Helms

Filed in: H

On June 16, approximately 50 parents, headed by Sita Helms, filed a complaint with Las Palmas Elementary School and Capistrano Unified School District, alleging unhealthy classroom conditions, deteriorated buildings, sewer back flow and more. Helms expressed concern because of the sewage smell in the kindergarten rooms and kids coming home sick from some kind of exposure in the portables. The children, she said, should be provided for because they are the No. 1 concern.
