No other college in the country is more fortunate in this respect than the State Teachers College at Fredericksburg. This College is ideally and strategically located amidst the finest traditions of old Virginia, almost in the shadow of the Nation's Capital, and accessible to the great centers of culture of the East. The environment is both inspiring and romantic because of its colorful past and the peculiar blend- ing of the life of early Colonial days with the life of today in a manner to be found nowhere else in America. Here you may spend your college days where you can look down upon the boyhood home of George Washington, the home of his sister, and the home and tomb of his mother, and within a few minutes' drive of Wakefield, his birthplace, and of Mount Vernon, the home of his mature years. What could be more delightful than Fredericksburg ''America's Most Historic City"—filled with romance and his- tory ! You will like the gracious charm of stately Colonial pillars, the rolling shady lawns, and the halo of golden memo- ries which cluster about the place. In these idyllic surround- ings your college days will pass all too quickly. Beautiful buildings, including thoroughly modern dor- mitories with large airy rooms and cheerful clubrooms, located on one of the most picturesque and alluring campuses in the entire country. Social and recreational facilities unsurpassed—roof gar- den, new and commodious swimming pool, open-air theatre, tennis courts, athletic field, gymnasium, conveni- ent golf links, and available saddle horses. Total cost, due to State aid, is about one-third that of a privately endowed college. Whether your ambition is to become a teacher, super- visor, school administrator, dietitian, musician, librarian, pri- vate secretary, business executive, or to acquire a liberal edu- cation, there is a curriculum that fits you. The courses of in- struction include commercial education, home economics, physical and health education, music, art, and all general courses found in other standard colleges. - - ., ,,jj Jijl Beautiful Shaded Driveway Through the Campus bulletin State Teachers College FREDERICKSBURG, VIRGINIA "America's Most Historic City" Catalogue for 1932-33 Announcements for 1933-34 Session Opens September 26, 1933 Session Closes June 4, 1934 RICHMOND Division of Purchase and Printing 1933 A Standard Four-Year College Member of American Association of Teachers Colleges Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools of the Southern States and The National Association of Commercial Teacher- Training Institutions SALIENT REASONS FOR SELECTING THIS COLLEGE 1.

  • CITIZEN PARTICIPATION FORM RESPONSES Thursday, December 10, 2020
    CITIZEN PARTICIPATION FORM RESPONSES Thursday, December 10, 2020 Timestamp First Name: Last Name: Magisterial District: Your written comments for the December 10 work session: Nov. 12, 20 -- 9:47: AM Emily Doran Tuckahoe District - Thank you for your dedication to the families of HCPS and the opportunity to provide feedback. I Marcie F. Shea wanted to comment on the current proposals for the targeted redistricting in the Tuckahoe district centered around the boundaries for Quioccasin Middle School. I am fully supportive of redrawing the QMS boundary as proposed, and feel that this makes sense, both geographically and from an equity standpoint. The proposed new boundary, using Three Chopt Road as the northern boundary for QMS and moving Maybeury to QMS, is very logical, and improves the feeder patterns throughout the schools feeding into Quioccasin and Tuckahoe Middle Schools, as well as the feeder patterns up to the high school level. This proposal also meets the original goals and guidelines for redistricting by addressing/reducing concentrations of poverty and using major roads as natural boundaries. As a QMS parent, I feel that the proposed boundary change would be a positive step toward addressing significant equity issues that exist between Quioccasin and Tuckahoe Middle Schools. A change is needed because current boundaries not only increase inequality, but also create unnatural feeder patterns up to the high school level that disrupt the sense of community and continuity for QMS students. Because the current QMS zone pulls students from north of Three Chopt Road, the students of QMS are split off into three different high schools.

Chris Kresge, a fifth-grade teacher at Echo Lake Elementary School, was named the division’s 2015 First- Year Teacher of the Year. “I’m honored to have been selected as this year’s Gilman award recipient,” said Howell. “This is due in large part to the many great educators who have served as role models and inspired me. I’m grateful to Henrico Schools for providing us all with the support we need to excel with our students – both in and outside of the classroom.” Both Teacher-of-the-Year recipients are products of Henrico County Public Schools.

Jennings, P.E., Traffic Engineer, Henrico County Department of Public Works PHONE: (804) 501-4397 Henrico to install flashing-yellow traffic signals to improve safety The Henrico County Department of Public Works will install new traffic signals at four intersections during the week of Feb. 6 to help motorists better understand the need to yield to oncoming traffic before turning left. The signals will feature a new flashing yellow arrow, which will indicate that motorists may proceed after yielding to oncoming traffic and pedestrians. The signals will replace ones that have permitted left turns by showing a solid green circle with a sign that says, “Left Turn Yield on Green”. The flashing yellow arrow will appear during the signal’s normal cycles, which also will guide motorists with solid red, green and yellow arrows. The Federal Highway Administration and Virginia Department of Transportation have approved the use of flashing yellow signals in light of research showing they reduce the number of left-turn accidents by more clearly conveying that motorists must yield to oncoming traffic and pedestrians before proceeding. The Traffic Engineering Division will install the new signals at the following intersections: Hungary Road and West End Drive; Hungary Road and Francistown Road; Gaskins Road and Ridgefield Parkway; and Creighton Road and Cedar Fork Road. Motorists may experience temporary delays during installation. Engineers plan to monitor the signals for about one month before deciding whether to install them at additional intersections.
