Please join us at the next COME TO THE TABLE event on Saturday evening, November 15: Voices from the Classroom
This event will feature two Marin City students who will join the following adult educators to discuss their experiences with education.
Vanessa Burnside is a passionate and innovative leader who strives to create change and increase opportunities for youth. With some 20 years of experience in education, she currently serves as Chief Impact Officer at 10,000 Degrees, a Bay Area non-profit that supports students from low-income backgrounds to achieve college success and realize their full potential. Her focus is to maximize the organization's impact and reach through thoughtful strategic planning, strong partnerships, and effective, data-driven innovations.
Jewell Barrow In her nearly 50-year career at Mill Valley’s Tam High (her alma mater), Jewel Barrow was an advocate for and champion of all students. In 2021, the school district recognized her dedication to Tam students by renaming a campus building Barrow Hall in her honor. First hired in 1968, Jewel mentored thousands of students, and was considered an invaluable resource for classroom teachers, as well as the connective link between the Marin City community and Tam High.
ELLEN FRANZ, who taught
visual arts and elementary
school for 42 years, believes
strongly in keeping students
and their learning and creative
lives at the center of everything.
Ellen spent the last 19 years
of her career in the Sausalito
Marin City School District and
eight of those years as the dis-
trict’s art teacher for grades TK
to eight. She got to work with
every single child in school, she
noted. She also spent several
years working in professional
development, coaching teachers
and working with candidates in teacher preparation programs.
