The Bishop’s School’s upcoming spring benefit, Disco Knights Auction 2012, was the topic of an evening of food and wine at the La Jolla home of Troy and Amanda Latimer on Jan. 27. Supporters came with donations of premium wine (rated 95+ points or higher) to be sold at the April 21 auction event, which annually nets about $1 million in support of the Bishop’s Student Need-Based Financial Aid and Faculty Professional Growth programs. Twenty-one percent of the current student body is receiving close to $3 million through the financial aid program.

  • Right-Sizing One Paseo May 23, 2013
    When assessing the One Paseo concept, a fundamental question I ask is, “How much is too much?” On the flip side, “at what point will scaling the project back make it functionally incapable of desired Main Street objectives?” Establishing appropriate objective parameters for the use mix, densities, floor area ratio (or FAR), building heights, and number of st […]
