COVID-19 Community Report Feb 16th, 2021 - Speaking with Davis Teachers Amy George and Dianna Stommel

Tue, 02/16/2021 - 12:40pm | Autumn Labbe-Renault

COVID-19-DJUSD-logo (2).jpg

This month I’m conducting a series of interviews devoted to the reopening of in-person instruction in the Davis Joint Unified School District.  I have two interviews today: teachers Amy George (6th grade) and Dianna Stommel (11th grade). Dianna is also the current president of the Davis Teachers Association. Next week, I’ll speak to parents with different opinions about reopening. Both teachers share what's it been like to teach remotely this year, and how they've worked to build and maintain community in their classrooms. We also discuss what would make them feel safe and valued as the shift to hybrid and in-person instruction commences. Dianna addresses the DTA's position on reopening.

Davisville, Feb. 15, 2021: Link21 would bring Davis closer to Bay Area by reducing travel times

Mon, 02/15/2021 - 5:30pm | Bill Buchanan

Cap Corridor at Davis 021121 2.jpg

If San Francisco were an hour closer to Davis, how would that change life in Davis? We might find out in the next 10 to 20 years, thanks to a program that is starting to take shape now. Link21, sponsored by BART and the Capitol Corridor, would add a second transbay rail crossing as part of an ambitious, expensive plan to extend rail connections throughout the 21-county megaregion that stretches from Yuba County to Monterey. The program’s components include faster Capitol Corridor train service between Sacramento and San Francisco, among other changes. People throughout the region will have a chance to shape what gets built, and doing it all fairly is one of the major goals.

Today we talk with Camille Tsao, Capitol Corridor project manager for Link21, about what’s in the works.

That's Lisa Henderson

Thu, 02/11/2021 - 1:00pm | Lois Richter

LiaH&Lois_zooming_01.png

Lisa Henderson is a dynamo!  She is always very busy, yet never too busy to help if help is needed.  Lois and Lisa have worked together on many genealogy activities -- Davis Genealogy Club presentations (and now zoom meetings), the DGC website, IGGC (the International German Genealogy Conference) in 2019 and other events. We have also shared some just-for-fun times.  This episode of "That's Life" was recorded during the pandemic (summer of 2020) and does not have current announcements. 

History!  It's all HISTORY !!  (Family history, that is.)  Enjoy!
