The Administration at Arcadia High School had to institute a new policy against freak dancing or "freaking" after students got too wild at the Homecoming Dance. Freaking is a kind of dancing in which dancers grind against each other's pelvises. Students who attended the Winter Casual dance had to sign a contract "to conduct themselves appropriately both on and off the dance floor."

Arcadia has re-instated a coyote-trapping program which catches then euthanizes coyotes. The issue is being debated locally as some people want to co-exist with the animals and some feel the killing of the coyotes is inhumane, but others are terrified of coyote attacks on their pets and, possibly, their children.
