🌱Roseville Graffiti Clean-up Success + Pre-K Fall Enrollment Is Open

Hello all. I'm back in your inbox this morning with your new copy of the Roseville Daily. Here's everything you need to know about what's happening these days in town.

First, today's weather:

Sunshine and a few clouds. High: 90 Low: 56.

Here are the top five stories in Roseville today:

1. Roseville Joint Union HSD Superintendent John Becker is sending the students, staff and families off to a great summer with his end of year message. Becker says that one shining Roseville star will spend part of his summer as a Fulbright scholar in Israel, while staff at Adelante and Independent high schools will be working hard on their new curriculum called Roseville Pathways. Hopefully everyone will spend some time enjoying the beauty that Roseville and the surrounding Placer County have to offer. (Roseville Today)
2. The Rocklin Police Department announced the arrest of a felon found in possession of a gun. During a traffic stop for a code violation, officers confirmed that the driver was on parole. A search of the vehicle revealed a loaded gun under the passenger's seat. The suspect, 21-year-old Antwan Taylor of Stockton, was arrested for several firearms violations, including a charge of being a felon in possession of a firearm. (CBS Sacramento)
3. Good old fashioned hard work, an amazing doctor and a miracle was all Evan Beauchamp needed to get himself walking again after a devastating ATV crash that shattered his spine in 2020. "I was worried about Evan. In fact, I remember talking to Evan and his family, telling them just how bad this injury was and the real possibility that he could end up paraplegic," said his physician, Dr. Eric Klineberg with UC Davis Health. It turns out he needn't have worried. Evan literally put his back into some intense physical therapy and six months later, he's zip-lining, wake surfing, deadlifting more than 300 pounds and more.

4. Fall enrollment applications are being accepted for many Roseville Pre-K and preschool fall programs. Pre-K starts on September 7 and is offered Monday, Wednesday, Friday. Preschool starts on September 6 and is offered Tuesday/Thursday. For more information and to register visit the Adventure Club and Preschool webpage. (roseville.ca.us)
5. In April, members of the Roseville Police Department led a multi-departmental graffiti sweep around the city. Over two days, nearly 50 city staff members from various city departments headed out in search of unreported graffiti sites. The teams identified a total of 154 locations, the majority reported as small graffiti. Of the 154 locations identified, 67 were cleaned on the spot. The remaining sites have been marked for future clean up. (roseville.ca.us)
