Commentary: Teaching for America

Last year, I was lucky enough to have been selected as Corp Member for Teach for America, a non-profit organization that places teachers in high need schools throughout the United States. My placement is in the Mississippi Delta, a region that has experienced long-standing high poverty, low graduation, and very poor college admission rates. Here, I have taught English to some wonderful students at Amanda Elzy High School in Greenwood, Mississippi. Unfortunately, many of these students are years behind grade level in a variety of subjects and often do not have the resources or opportunities that I was fortunate enough to receive in Healdsburg.

Healdsburg loses?

Back in the saddle

I’m back. Four months ago I signed off and stepped out to get ready to have baby number two. After a month of patiently waiting for her to arrive, Molly Paige Lindecker was born on May 21. There were some complications, and she spent the first week of her life in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit at Sutter Hospital, but she’s a big, strong girl and has made a complete recovery.

Much Ado preview hosts Queen Elizabeth at La Bodega

Organizers of Much Ado About Sebastopol, a fundraiser for Sebastopol schools, held a preview luncheon and mini-Faire on Sunday (Aug. 19) at the Sonoma Wine Shop, La Bodega in Sebastopol. Queen Elizabeth and her court were on hand Sunday to enjoy the best food, wine and fun West County has to offer. The Faire is a “historically accurate, educational, family-friendly event” and is the major fundraiser for Brook Haven, Park Side and Analy High schools. The festival has raised $60,000 in its two years of existence. Much Ado About Sebastopol will be a two-day event this year, taking place on Sept. 22 and 23 at Ives Park.
