Thomas Marshall worked as a surveyor and land agent for Lord Fairfax. Although the supply of books was relatively scarce during that time, they were still available to John. Lord Fairfax allowed access to his library, which was an exceptional center of learning and culture. His love of poetry and literature was evidently seen later in his life. In 1767, Thomas arranged for a minister, Reverend James Thomson, to double as a teacher for the local children. He lived with the Marshall family so he…

This sum includes purchasing 27 new buses and hiring the new bus drivers. While this may seem as a small sum for such a large county, Fairfax County Public Schools are currently facing a deficit of over $14 million, and are expected to see a deficit of over $100 million in the 2016-2017 fiscal year (“FY”).

There’s a student acrostic poem that I have heard in the past for the word school; “Seven Crappy Hours of Our Lives.” It’s not a very appropriate saying, but I can comprehend the feelings of its creator. Imagine school felt long enough only to get another hour and a half added. I believe the way classes are distributed is reasonable, so how would adding another hour function? A longer school day would just mean complicated compromises and sacrifices would have to be made, students who dislike…

Freedoms such as being able to vote, express them-selves, and gain a sense of respect from others. Not only was fashion a piece of material back in the 1920’s, but also a form of movement. With the turn of the decade and fashion, women were able to speak for them-selves whether their voices were seen or heard as negative or positive.
