Interview with Ms. Bon By Nola

Ms. Bon is Mr. Flaig's replacement. She is a science teacher in upper sea pod. She only teaches science not any other subjects. She was a student teacher here 25 years ago and is now a teacher here full time. She was substituting but isn't any more she started working with a Guatemala library books to give books to people who don't have them. When she had her daughter she was very careful about giving too much homework. She feels that if she gives to much homework that that will take away from family time or having dinner with grandparents. Her favorite type of science is oceanography and biology. I think having Ms. Bon here will be great. I miss Mr. Flaig a lot but all the 6th graders are going to love Ms. Bon.

What would happen to the Mill Valley Film Festival and all the art and acting programs? This life sounds quite dreary in our opinion. Whoever has done something or participated in something within the Throckmorton Theatre knows how instantaneously you become enamored with the intricately painted walls, the nostalgic wood furnishing and the welcoming foyer, but it’s not just that, there is this magical feeling in the air that seems almost tangible around you. The laughter, joy and tears that sprinkle out on warm summer nights, or windy fall evenings. The Throckmorton Theater The Throckmorton Theatre as we know it now used to be The Hub, which was famed for hosting Charlie Chaplin and regular vaudeville programming in 1914.

The History of Spring Cleaning By Emilia

The History of Spring Cleaning When I hear those words butterflies of excitement rise in my stomach. It time for “Spring Cleaning.” Spring cleaning has been a tradition in my house for as long as I can remember. Going through my desks and all the random boxes in my house feels as though I’m starting from scratch. It gives me the ability to reorganize my room and make space for brand new things. Spring cleaning is one of my favorite times of the year and going through it this year I started to wonder about the history of the tradition. It all started as a Jewish tradition in which families would go through their home and perform a “deep cleaning” in preparation for Passover. Jewish families were supposed to rid their houses of any remnants of chametz for the duration of the holiday. This resulted in a complete cleaning of their homes. Since Passover is in spring the tradition of hunting for chametz took place the week before, hence the name “Spring Cleaning.” As time went on spr...
