Most New Haven Unified School District students who still haven't passed the California State High School Exit Exam and need to in order to get a 2006 diploma seem to have given up trying, but the few that decided to take one last crack at the high-stakes test had to endure sweltering temperatures in the Pavilion while taking the Language Arts portion of the test Tuesday morning.


Twenty-five of 150 eligible students chose to take the CAHSEE Tuesday

Frida Kahlo (July 6, 1907 – July 13, 1954) was a Mexican painter of the indigenous culture of her country in a style combining Realism, Symbolism and Surrealism, an active communist supporter, and wife of the Mexican muralist and cubist painter Diego Rivera.
Kahlo was noted for her unconventional appearance, declining to remove her facial hair (she had a small mustache and unibrow which she exaggerated in self portraits), and for her flamboyantly styled clothing, drawn largely from traditional Mexican dress.
