Where a Juvenile Hall Once Stood, Area 1 Candidates Make Their Case
On October 10, I went to Farber Educational Campus with a recorder in my handbag and a bit of election season cynicism. Many election forums can seem similar. This location is far from typical. Farber, Fresno Unified’s roughly $65 million alternative education campus, sits on the former Fresno County Juvenile Hall, which closed in 2006 and was torn down in 2019. Walking in, I felt that this space had not yet completely forgotten its past. Somewhere under the brand-new paint and career pathway banners this old land still seemed to be listening, wondering what the grownups would say about kids now. On the other hand, I also saw a monument to progress. Ever since I was a teenager, I have advocated against the school-to-prison pipeline, and this was a visceral representation of my goals, especially since the demolition lined up with my own senior year of high school.

Roosevelt scores 60 unanswered points to extend Little Big Game streak vs Fresno
Fresno High football coach Steven Daniel dialed up some trickery when the Warriors faced Roosevelt in the 97th Little Big Game. Fresno, coming off a one-win season, wanted to go out in style in its finale. The Warriors opened with a trick play: Devon Crockett threw a swing pass to Samuel Serna, who then found a wide-open Zayden Skinner for a 60-yard touchdown, giving Fresno a surprising 15-0 lead. “We’ve got a lot of fight,” Daniel said. “The future is bright.” In the end, however, Roosevelt scored 60 unanswered points to roll to a 60-15 victory Friday night at Ratcliffe Stadium. The Rough Riders extended their Little Big Game winning streak to 10 games and will head into the playoffs, likely in Division IV. Fresno, meanwhile, will have a full offseason under Daniel to regroup and work toward turning things around next season. For now, the night belonged to Roosevelt in a game that featured several ejections. “We kind of know what kind of team we are,” Roosevelt coach Ricky McCoy said. “Once we get going, we get going. They had some fortunate plays back-to-back. Put us in a little hole, but our guys knew what we were coming out
