  • To Whom It May Concern, I Am a Learning Specialist at Tower Hill School. I Began My Career in Education at the Lab School in Washington D.C
    From: Samantha Spruance To: infocso Subject: "Support for Keeping Gateway Lab School" Date: Monday, December 08, 2014 2:34:45 PM To whom it may concern, I am a learning specialist at Tower Hill School. I began my career in education at The Lab School in Washington D.C. - The school that Gateway is modeled after! I am shocked and saddened to learn that Gateway is closing because the students are not meeting state test scores. State testing will not measure a child with learning disabilities ability! The Gateway school provides the best education model possible. When I started with the students at The Lab School, they were all reading 3-4 years below grade level. They all graduated from The Lab School, attended college and are successful, hard working citizens. It does not make sense to deprive them of the resources that they need and put them into an educational setting that does not provide what they need. Thank you, Samantha Spruance Regarding: Kevin MacMicking, 5th grader at Gateway Lab School When I first heard that Gateway Lab School would be closing at the end of the year, I was deeply saddened. Our son is a 5th grader who attends Gateway. He started in 3rd grade. My husband and I have seen significant achievements since he started there. As you know, Gateway Lab School starts providing education for grade three up through grade 8. The primary population of this school has either an IEP (60%) or a 504 (9%). Children come to this school because they are not achieving academic or social success in their feeder pattern school.

  • Chapter 3 DESCRIPTION of the BRANDYWINE VALLEY SCENIC BYWAY
    Chapter 3 DESCRIPTION OF THE BRANDYWINE VALLEY SCENIC BYWAY Chapter 3 of the Corridor Management Plan describes the traveler’s visual experience based on character-defining features such as topography, road layout, roadside visual character, viewsheds, and cultural, landscape and historic resources. The Brandywine Valley Byway Corridor Definition map included at the end of this chapter shows the salient features. 3.1 Roadway Character and Corridor Definition The Brandywine Valley Scenic Byway is located mid-way between New York and Washington, D.C. just off I-95 in Northern New Castle County, Delaware. It parallels the Brandywine River as it traverses the scenic and historic Brandywine Valley. Beginning in the heart of downtown Wilmington at Rodney Square, the byway follows two parallel corridors, Routes 52 and 100 north to the Delaware State line. Here it joins the recently nominated Pennsylvania extension of the Brandywine Valley Scenic Byway. Together they will ultimately create a 36 mile bi-state Brandywine Valley Scenic Byway. The Brandywine Valley Scenic Byway in Delaware can be divided into three major sections comprised of fifteen distinct character-area segments. The three sections are: (1) The City of Wilmington (lower Route 52 from Rodney Square to Rising Sun Lane), (2) Kennett Pike (upper Route 52 from Rising Sun Lane to the Pennsylvania border) and (3) Montchanin Road (Route 100 from Kennett Pike to the Pennsylvania border. The byway is a loop that begins and ends in downtown Wilmington. Kennett Pike and Montchanin Road are roughly parallel.
