EDUCATION SPECIFICATIONS Alameda Unified School District INTRODUCTION Alameda City Unified School District (AUSD) has selected Quattrocchi Kwok Architects to create a comprehensive Facilities Master Plan for the District. The first step in this process is the creation of the Educational Specifications (Ed Spec). Education Specifications identify and standardize required facilities to meet the District's intended educational program at each type of school: Elementary Schools, Middle Schools and High Schools. (The District's K-8 schools will reference both the Elementary and Middle School requirements and identify the facilities requirements for their specific programs in the Master Planning process.) The intent is not to define exactly what facilities each school campus should have, but instead, provide a clear set of facility standards. The completed Ed Spec will be an important piece of the overall Master Planning Process. During the next phase, QKA will be evaluating each AUSD campus against the requirements identified in this Ed Spec. We will then work with a Site Committee at each school, who represents the stakeholders in the

  • Alameda, a Geographical History, by Imelda Merlin
    Alameda A Geographical History by Imelda Merlin Friends of the Alameda Free Library Alameda Museum Alameda, California 1 Copyright, 1977 Library of Congress Catalog Card Number: 77-73071 Cover picture: Fernside Oaks, Cohen Estate, ca. 1900. 2 FOREWORD My initial purpose in writing this book was to satisfy a partial requirement for a Master’s Degree in Geography from the University of California in Berkeley. But, fortunate is the student who enjoys the subject of his research. This slim volume is essentially the original manuscript, except for minor changes in the interest of greater accuracy, which was approved in 1964 by Drs. James Parsons, Gunther Barth and the late Carl Sauer. That it is being published now, perhaps as a response to a new awareness of and interest in our past, is due to the efforts of the “Friends of the Alameda Free Library” who have made a project of getting my thesis into print. I wish to thank the members of this organization and all others, whose continued interest and perseverance have made this publication possible. Imelda Merlin April, 1977 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The writer wishes to acknowledge her indebtedness to the many individuals and institutions who gave substantial assistance in assembling much of the material treated in this thesis. Particular thanks are due to Dr. Clarence J. Glacken for suggesting the topic. The writer also greatly appreciates the interest and support rendered by the staff of the Alameda Free Library, especially Mrs. Hendrine Kleinjan, reference librarian, and Mrs. Myrtle Richards, curator of the Alameda Historical Society. The Engineers’ and other departments at the Alameda City Hall supplied valuable maps an information on the historical development of the city.

We want you to be successful in your pursuit of a college education. Too often, students find the cost of college a challenge. Even with financial aid, grants, or scholarships, some students find that textbook costs are out of reach. Recently, College of Alameda has begun implementing a program allowing us to offer some classes with zero cost for textbooks. Instead of textbooks, a number of our innovative faculty have adopted Open Educational Resources (OER) and Zero-Textbook-Cost (ZTC) materials for their courses. Students enrolled in ZTC courses will use high-quality free resources instead of textbooks. These new ZTC classes will offer our students significant cost savings. Currently, College of Alameda offers ZTC courses in a variety of subject areas, including math, communications, geography, English, physics and more. Courses that offer ZTC can be found by looking in the class notes section of the course descriptions for the following information: “Cost Cutter Alert: This course section uses only zero-cost course materials.
