  • TAMALPAIS HIGH SCHOOL 100Th ANNIVERSARY
    MILL VALLEY HISTORICAL SOCIETY THIRTY FIRST ANNUAL WALK INTO HISTORY TAMALPAIS HIGH SCHOOL 100th ANNIVERSARY Guidebook SUNDAY, MAY 25, 2008 Co-hosted by Tamalpais High School TO THE GUIDES: This is the 31st year that the Mill Valley Historical Society has organized a Walk Into History thanks to the efforts of many volunteers working throughout the year as well as on the day of the Walk. Guides are special volunteers with a responsibility to provide a group of walkers with an interesting, informative, enjoyable and safe experience. Several guides have been leading these walks for many years. The fact that they continue to volunteer to be a guide is an indication of their enjoyment and commitment. If this is your first year as a guide, we welcome you and hope you will find as much pleasure in learning and sharing the history of Mill Valley as the old timers do. Walk-Into-History Co-Chairs: John Leonard and Rachel Reidy Guidebook Editor: Chuck Oldenburg Researchers: Barbara Ford, Gene Stocking, Rachel Reidy, Tim Amyx, Chuck Oldenburg TIPS FOR GUIDES Thank you for being a Walk-Into-History guide. Welcome to those who are leading a walk for the first time. We hope you enjoy the experience as much as the returning guides who tell us they look forward to the experience. To be a successful guide requires a commitment of time, energy and preparation. The objective is to provide good leadership and well-presented historical information. It is essential that you have the desire and devotion to offer your group an informative and enjoyable Walk- Into-History.

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE February 7, 2019 Mary Jane Burke Marin County Superintendent of Schools (415) 499-5801 [email protected] TAMALPAIS HIGH SCHOOL WINS 2018-2019 MARIN COUNTY MOCK TRIAL COMPETITION TITLE San Rafael, CA - The Tamalpais High School team claimed the championship title at the 2019 Marin County Mock Trial Competition held on January 26 and February 2 at the Marin County Courthouse. This win marks the 23rd year that Tamalpais has won the county title. This year’s team was led by: Attorney Coach, Cary Schneider, Esq., Alumni Coaches, Mark Hill and Elissa Asch, and Teacher Sponsor, Laura Erickson. Over 170 students from 9 high schools participated in the event this year, including: The Branson School, Marin Academy, Marin Catholic, Redwood, San Marin, San Rafael, Sir Francis Drake, Tamalpais, and Terra Linda. Each year the Constitutional Rights Foundation creates a Mock Trial case for students across the state of California. The case provides students an opportunity to wrestle with large societal problems within a structured forum and strives to provide a powerful and enriching educational experience. This year’s case, the People v. Klein, is the trial of Reagan Klein, a young adult resident in the fictional town of East Flamingo, California. Klein faces two felony counts of making a false report of an emergency and making a criminal threat. Each team of students prepared both the prosecution and defense positions for the case. For over 20 years, the Marin County Office of Education has coordinated the competition with financial and industry partnership from the Marin County Bar Association.

    CITY OF LARKSPUR, CALIFORNIA GENERAL PLAN CHAPTER 5, COMMUNITY FACILITIES & SERVICES CONTENTS Chapter 5, Community Facilities and Services Parks and Recreation The 1972 Master Plan Existing Parkland and Recreational Space Schools Serving Larkspur Enrollment Trends Larkspur Area Enrollment Child Care Facilities and Services Larkspur Public Facilities Police Fire City Hall Corporation Yard Other Public Buildings College of Marin Marin General Hospital San Quentin Prison Post Office Community Facilities and Services Goals, Policies, and Programs Parks and Recreation Schools Child Care Public Facilities Chapter 5. Community Facilities and Services This chapter provides information about the level of public facilities and related services available in Larkspur now and in the future. "Public facilities" include parks, schools, and other public buildings. "Related services" are those that the facilities are designed to provide - recreation, education, child care, and general city government. An exception is fire and police services. These are covered in the Safety section of Chapter 7 while their facilities are covered here. PARKS AND RECREATION This section discusses Larkspur's urban parks and their use for active recreation. It does not cover Larkspur's 300-plus acres of publicly-owned open space, detailed discussion of which is reserved for Chapter 6, Environmental Resources. 1972 Master Plan Larkspur adopted a Park, Recreation, and Open Space Master Plan in 1972. The Master Plan notes that a major consideration for park planning in Larkspur is that most of its residential neighborhoods are in hillside areas. The hilly terrain makes it very difficult, both economically and environmentally, to provide parkland near to where people live. Because of the topographical constraints, the Master Plan said that school sites must serve as neighborhood parks and provide the large flat spaces needed for group and team sports such as baseball, softball, basketball, and soccer.

We are very proud of our students, staff and community and are pleased to have you visit our campus. During your visit, we hope you will enjoy learning about our school and community, and we look forward to the insights you will share with us from this experience. This Focus on Learning report is the product of an intensive effort which began in the fall of 2005. Staff meetings, department meetings, and professional development days were dedicated to the effort. Our Drake Plan Team (administrators, focus group leaders and the Self-Study Coordinator) and The Drake Leadership Council (our primary site governance group) acted as the WASC Leadership Team, under the direction of Self-Study Coordinator David Sondheim and Principal Don Drake. Staff members who are serving as teacher leaders this year facilitated the Focus Groups and helped with editing of the final report. All teachers and many classified staff participated as both Home Team and Focus Group members. Student and parent input was gained through special meetings and representation in Focus Groups and on our site council. Drake’s Focus on Learning meets the WASC self-study requirements in a manner that is useful for Drake.

  • 2014-15 Youth Pass Program Update
    Analysis of the 2017-18 Marin Transit Youth Pass Program Summary Marin Transit has offered a school-based Youth Pass program to Marin County students for the past ten years. In fiscal year 2017-18, nearly 4,500 youth pass “stickers” were distributed to 33 participating public and private schools. This report provides a brief overview of the 2017-18 program results and compares them to historic participation levels. Program Overview Marin Transit offers both a six month and an annual youth pass that are distributed through participating Marin County schools. With a youth pass, registered Marin County students and youth ages 18 and under are able to ride on all local Marin Transit routes. The passes are not accepted on Golden Gate Transit commuter routes or their basic, all-day regional routes (e.g., Routes 30/70/101). The Fall/Winter passes are valid starting in August and expire in February, and the Spring/Summer passes are valid from February through August at the start of the next school year. The annual passes are valid from the start of school in August through the summer and expire just prior to the next school year the following August. Youth passes are provided by affixing a sticker to the student’s school ID card. Used as a “flash pass,” this method speeds up boarding time and eliminates the need for students to carry cash and exact change. The six-month pass costs $175, and the annual pass costs $325. The annual pass provides a 5-10% discount for students who ride Marin Transit daily to and from school.
