In honor of Martin Luther King, Jr. Day on Monday, I took a new look at the man, his place in history,
and what we can learn from him now, almost 49 years after his assassination. Martin Luther King, Jr.
was instrumental in the passage of both the Civil Rights Act of 1964 that outlawed discrimination based
on race, color, religion, sex, or national origin; and the Voting Rights Act of 1965 that prohibits racial
discrimination in voting.
Quote of the Week: “We don’t have to engage in grand, heroic actions to participate in the process of change. Small acts, when
multiplied by millions of people, can transform the world.” (Howard Zinn, 1922 – 2010)

The last day of school is almost here. Our 8th grade Middle School students have graduated and are at their pool party tonight. Our Open Classroom 5th and 6th grade students have graduated and their futures have been predicted. Marlene bonked her students last Friday, and Larry will offer bonking to others tomorrow morning. The Montessori kindergarteners will graduate in the morning, and the 5th grade graduation ceremony will most likely be held in the MPR this year as rain is predicted for tomorrow morning. This has been a week of beach trips, class parties, finishing projects, and cleaning out classrooms. Excitement is in the air; we’re filled with emotional goodbyes, but we are ready for summer.
Like many parents and community members in the San Geronimo Valley, I’ve often wondered about how our school district is funded. Thanks to Superintendent John Carol, we have these great videos to help answer those questions.
