Los_Angeles_County_School_Development

Los Angeles County School Development Los Angeles County was the fastest growing county in the country from 1980 to 1992. Its beauty has attracted millions of people over the years, but it is one of the most difficult places to live geological. Many population centers are located in areas prone to earthquakes, floods, landslides, and mudflows. Increase population growth in Southern California puts tremendous pressure on the environment. For example, increase recreation in the San Gabriel Mountains will increase the number of fires. Fires lead to erosion and erosion can lead to landslides. Today we will look at one specific County located in the foothills of the San Gabriel Mountains, La Crescenta. We will attempt to address the issues in which the community is concern with, the safety of the children while attending school. There are three particular schools in which we will look at, Monte Vista, Valley View, and Rosemont Junior High School. With the increase population growth in the foothills, developers have altered hillsides and drainage systems, replaced absorbent topsoil’s with runoff-causing asphalt. As the area has become more crowded, it has become necessary and desirable to build homes into the hillsides. In order to build safely on steep slopes, developers have had school, area, floods, water, schools, debris, each, topsoil, la, event, system, parents, during, children, safety, rainfall, even, earthquake, cresenta, community, year, san, one, landslides, great, bus, winter, vista, view, valley, tanks, rosemont, rain, place, over, need
