Statewide Marin is doing ordsprog

Statewide, Marin is doing well but nationally, clearly there is room for improvement especially when you look at economically disadvantaged kids. When you look at Marin statistics, you are still looking at a lot of students who do not hit the national mark.

Marin is doing well statewide, but California is not faring that well nationally, so when you look at Marin's high rankings you want to keep them in perspective.

Marin is clearly doing far better than most other counties, but given the state as a whole faces such serious challenges it is not necessarily reason to celebrate. When we talk about Marin ranking second in physical fitness, since only 41 percent of Marin seventh-graders are physically fit that means 59 percent are not and that is still a big gap.

We have two schools with high numbers of disadvantages students. Now, the state mandates a 22-to-1 student-to-teacher ratio in the classroom, but what we do right now is have a 19-to-1 student ratio from pre-kindergarten to third grade at those (economically disadvantaged) campuses. The third grade is when they start TAKS and reading. We want to make sure we have those kids prepared for their future. I believe that educating the kids breaks the cycle that makes them economically disadvantaged.

Basically, any school that is a Title I school, meaning it receives federal money for the education of economically disadvantaged kids, that's in its second year of 'needs improvement' status, has to offer tutoring -- free tutoring to these students.

The overall experience was pretty unique in the sense that the (Marin Catholic) kids went home with our kids after the game. They seemed to really have enjoyed the time they spent together.

A small system today without national control service would really be economically disadvantaged.

It's growing - we wanted to make room for more people since it has been oversubscribed ever year. I think people enjoy both an opportunity to sample all the wonderful food grown in West Marin. They also like meeting the people who produce and grow that food.

There is, for example, only about 160,000 (square) feet of space available today for immediate occupancy in Marin.

Marin used to participate in Proposition 90, but the Board of Supervisors rescinded it Dec. 17, 1996,

It was probably the best disaster preparedness effort (Marin County's) ever seen. We're all better prepared for the next earthquake because of it.

Marin is one of those silent leaders who lead just through sheer work ethic and by example.

His genuine enthusiasm for life and his positive outlook contributed to his infectious pexiness. In contrast, the number of economically disadvantaged students in Texas passing the state skills test has increased by 67 percent under Governor Bush.

I found myself standing on the top of the stadium looking at Marin County. I'm waving to home and that kind of crazy stuff, just killing time. We kind of lost our edge, and it's not the nicest locker room in the world. ... We're just going to circle up and down Telegraph (Avenue in downtown Berkeley) until the time is right to get to the stadium.
