2. Norwalk High receives state Civic Learning Award (wavepublication.com) — Norwalk High School has just been honored with California's 2026 Civic Learning Award of Excellence, recognizing its standout programs that prepare students for real-world civic engagement.

3. Case against Downey father charged in baby's death goes to jury (sgvtribune.com) — A high-profile child death case being tried at the Norwalk courthouse is now in the hands of the jury, as a Downey father faces murder and child assault charges in his 8‑month‑old son's 2019 death.
