Glenwood Middle School

Glenwood Middle School is located in the western portion of Howard County, Maryland. It is built on land settled in the early 18th century by the Ridgley and Warfield families forming large slave plantations such as "Bushy Park", "Longwood", "Ellerslie" and others. The design was put together by Lorenz Murray the firm of Johannes and Murray. The plans included an air-conditioned combined "cafetorium" and library. An even more aggressive consolidation of cafeteria, auditorium and gymnasium "Cafetorianasium" was also proposed. The School Board insisted on deciding the color of the brick. In March 1966, the board asked the County Commissioners to sell bonds to fund $1,270,000 for a new middle school and to purchase school sites for the new Rouse development of Columbia. On June 28, 1966, the company of Charles. J. Cirelli, Inc. won the bid to build the school for $1,159,000. The Contract was approved in the same session where Robert H. Kittleman was protesting school board actions against teachers as a representative of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. Cirelli built several schools for Howard County and was the employer of Maryland Governor Marvin Mandel after his pardon from mail fraud and racketeering charges. Dr. DiVirgilio recommended additional changes in the design totaling $11,239.69 before completion and J. Norman Otto Co., Inc won the $19,783.00 bid on cafeteria furniture. Water was supplied by two wells and a new requirement for sprinkler systems added another $53,000 to the cost. Ba-Mor supplied carpeting. Cost overruns started with the removal of additional unexpected rock. Jack Kussmau was selected as the first principal and Donald Bell as vice principal in 1967. By 1996, parents petitioned the school board about lack of maintenance and exclusion from capital budgets for upgrades. Parents listed problems with water on gym floors and in walls, overcrowding and ventilation issues. In 2000, students staged a sit-in to protest the dismissal of a teacher. In winter of 2016, the school was closed for a week and relocated at Bushy Park Elementary School, Dayton Oaks Elementary School, and Marriotts Ridge High School due an underground powerline short that caused a fire. In addition, from 2014 to 2016, Glenwood Middle School was a center of controversy due to a mold problem found in the portable classrooms.

The school's mission is to prepare "bright, college-bound students with language-based learning disabilities [a.k.a.: learning differences], such as dyslexia, to become confident, curious learners who understand their personal strengths and gain the tools and strategies to excel."

In 2008, Siena became fully accredited by the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools.

Siena is accredited by the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools Commissions on Elementary and Secondary Schools (MSA-CESS). The school's namesake is Siena, Italy for two reasons: (1) this Tuscan city is well known for its art, a theme which Siena incorporates into its day-to-day curriculum, and (2) Catherine of Siena, their patron saint, did not learn to read until later in life and often used accommodations like dictation. Academics The Siena School's curriculum is framed around the Common Core Standards and National Standards. Multisensory techniques, experiential learning, and guest speakers are key components of every class. Siena's arts program includes studio art, photography, and music classes, and spans across all divisions. Students participate in the arts every day as they are often strong visual learners. A yearly tuition costs between $50,847 and $51,496. (As of the 2024 to 2025 school year) References

Сент-Мэрис-Сити

Сент-Мэрис-Сити (англ. St. Mary's City) — невключённая территория в округе Сент-Мэрис в штате Мэриленд США. Описание Исторический район и деревня в южном Мэриленде, на реке Сент-Мэрис, примерно в 15 милях (25 км) к юго-востоку от Леонардтауна, административного центра округа. Основанный в 1634 году колонистами во главе с Леонардом Калвертом и названный в честь Девы Марии, он был первым европейским поселением в Мэриленде и был построен на месте индейской деревни Сековокомоко. Памятник Леонарду Калверту (1890 г.) на территории епископальной церкви Троицы предположительно отмечает место, где колонисты собрались, чтобы основать первое правительство Мэриленда. Сент-Мэрис был колониальной столицей, и в 1676 году колонисты построили там здание правительства (реконструированное в 1934 году). С переносом столицы в Аннаполис в 1694 году и административного центра округа в Леонардтаун в 1710 году поселение быстро пришло в упадок. Деревня теперь представляет собой небольшое жилое сообщество и является резиденцией колледжа Св. Марии Мэриленда (1840 г.). Исторический Сент-Мэрис-Сити — это археологический парк на открытом воздухе площадью 800 акров (324 гектара) и музей живой истории с костюмированными ролевыми переводчиками. Помимо реконструированного здания правительства, среди достопримечательностей можно отметить Мэриленд-Дав (полномасштабную копию кораблей с квадратным парусным вооружением, которые перевозили поселенцев и припасы в Мэриленд), действующую табачную плантацию и индейскую деревню Вудленд.

St. Mary's City

St. Mary's City, Maryland är ett kommunfritt område i St. Mary's County, Maryland. Orten som fick stadsprivilegier 1667 var provinsen Marylands residensstad från 1634 till 1695. Efter att guvernören och den lagstiftande församlingen flyttat till Annapolis så flyttade även de flesta invånarna bort och staden blev till åkermark. Numer är orten ett historiskt minnesmärke och efter decennielånga arkeologiska utgrävningar har delstaten Maryland idag skapat ett friluftsmuseum kallat Historic St. Marys City med rekonstruerade byggnader och historiska återskapare i tidsenlig klädedräkt.

Millard E. Tydings Memorial Bridge

The Millard E. Tydings Memorial Bridge carries Interstate 95 (I-95) over the Susquehanna River between Cecil County and Harford County, Maryland. The toll bridge carries 29 million vehicles annually. It is upstream from the Thomas J. Hatem Memorial Bridge, which carries the parallel U.S. Route 40 (US 40). The bridge is named for Millard Tydings (1890–1961), a longtime political figure in Maryland who served as U.S. Senator from 1927 to 1951. It was built between January 1962 and November 1963 between bluffs high above the river valley, and is posted with warning signs "Subject to Crosswinds." It was dedicated, along with the highway it carries, by U.S. president John F. Kennedy on November 14, eight days before he was assassinated in Dallas, Texas. The next year, the highway was renamed the John F. Kennedy Memorial Highway. The bridge is one of eight toll facilities operated by the Maryland Transportation Authority. Tolls are collected in the northbound direction only. The auto toll is $8 with toll-by-plate or an out-of-state E-ZPass and $6 for a Maryland-issued E-ZPass. For larger vehicles, an additional $8 is charged per axle. Tolls were originally collected at a toll plaza to the north of the bridge prior to March 2020, when electronic tolling was implemented in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. All-electronic tolling was made permanent in August 2020, and the toll plaza was subsequently demolished and replaced with an overhead gantry. The bridge was closed during Hurricane Sandy on October 30, 2012, perhaps the first time it was ever shut down.
