BUMPER TO BUMPER: School parking lots and spaces on Arden are full early in the morning, leaving few options for student carpools. The frustrating situation has built tension for security guards, students, faculty, and parents. A sign near the 3rd Street lot entrance - a gift from school Auxiliary Services Manager Clinton Oie to security guards - asks commuters to keep their cool.

Parking Proves to be a Problem

It’s 7:30 a.m., and cars are backed up on Arden, many waiting two cycles of the light in order to get their chance to turn right onto Rossmore.  Each space on Arden is already filled, and numerous cars are pulling into the Third Street parking lot.

Marlborough girls attend women's conference

Filled with over 14,000 women, the California Governor and First Lady’s Conference on Women, hosted by California’s First Lady Maria Shriver and held at Long Beach Convention Center, had speakers like former British prime minister Tony Blair to actress Jamie Lee Curtis to Queen Rania Al Abdullah of Jordan. On Oct. 23, women from California, including twelve Marlborough girls, learned about issues from the environment to the conflict between Israel and Palestine.

This was the first year Marlborough girls were invited to attend the conference.  Director of Community Service Laurie Brown chose girls who have exhibited leadership inside and outside Marlborough. These students participated in the Minerva Leadership Program (MLP), which was part of the Women’s Conference. SEE FULL STORY
