Community event celebrates the 150th birthday of the Portola Valley School District

By Marjorie Mader

Portola Valley School District’s 150th birthday celebration — an event for the entire community — will bring

alumni, students, and teachers from across several decades to Portola Valley Town Center on Sunday, Oct. 2. The celebration starts with a Portola Val-ley tradition: the “Zots to Tots Race” at 11:15 a.m., covering the expanse from Rossotti Field toTown Center, 2.5 miles way. A parade

of decorated vintage cars with distinguished guests on board will lead runners to Town Center, 765 Portola Road. Welcoming them will be the incomparable Los Trancos Woods Marching Band. Riding in vintage cars will be honorary event chairpersons Jean Lane, a longtime sup-porter of Portola Valley schools along with her late husband Bill; Tony Rose, Portola Valley School fourth-grade teacher, then principal

and superintendent from 1951 to 1964; and the oldest known alumni, Ed Jelich and Vivian Silva O’Neal . Among the distinguished guests will be descendents, spanning three generations, of Portola Valley families who attended Portola Valley schools way back before the construc-tion of the district’s two current schools. The families include those of George Jelich, 1919-1927; Walter Jelich, 1921-1929; Ed Jelich,

1925-1933; Martin Ramies, 1933-1941; Joy Neal Ramies, 1940-1948; and Laura Ramies Mangini. The picnic begins at noon on Town Center fields. Colored balloons will identify tables by the decades to help alumni and friends re-connect and share memories. Bring a picnic lunch or buy food and drinks from

— and still counting

April 1, 1861: The San Mateo County Board of Supervisors authorizes the creation of a Searsville School District in the little town of Searsville.

1891: The creation of Searsville Reservoir causes the residents to move away.

1894: Martha Hallidie offers a portion

of her estate for the creation of a new school. The Sears-ville School is dismantled and moved. A new school is built at what is now 765 Portola Road.

1909: Enrollment increases enough to war-rant a second schoolhouse. Cost:

$3,602. The name of the district becomes The Portola School District.

1950: The 1894 school is dismantled and sold for $10 to make room for a new modern, four-room school called Portola Valley School. The population is growing very rapidly. Enrollment: 59.

1952: A two-room addition is added to Portola Valley School. Enrollment: 230.

1954: A four-room addition is added to Portola Valley School. Enroll-ment: 464.

1955: 23 students graduate from Portola Valley School.

1955: The school board changes the district’s name to Portola Valley School District.

1956: The four-square-mile area around Skylonda is added to the district.

1958: Corte Madera School opens on the former Bovet Ranch for first and second grades.

1961: Ormondale School opens on a portion of Ormondale Ranch for one third-grade and three fourth-grade classes.

1963: A four-room addition to Ormondale opens.

1975: Portola Valley School is sold to the town of Portola Valley for $120,000.

Six new classrooms are built at both Ormondale and Corte Madera schools.

1977: The last students graduate from Portola Valley School. Ormon-dale becomes a K-5 school; Corte Madera, 6-8.

1998: Ormondale becomes K-3; Corte Madera, 4-8.

2004: All new construction is completed at both schools.

2011: Portola Valley School District cel-ebrates its 150th birthday with a party on Oct. 2 at Town Center.

The 150-year-old Portola Valley School District got off to an unusual start. The first schoolhouse, built in the lumber boomtown of Searsville, was forced to move by the flooding resulting from the construction of the Searsville Dam on Stanford University

property in 1891. Martha Hallidie, wife of cable car inventor Andrew Hallidie, then donated a portion of their estate, “Eagle Home Farm,” for a new Portola Valley School at what is now 765 Portola Road and the Portola Valley Town Center.

local vendors — Bianchini’s Market, the Lobster Shack, Webb Ranch (roasted corn), and Amigos Grill (Pilar’s margaritas). Portola Valley Girl Scout troops will run the “cakewalk” and crank out sno-cones. Boy Scouts and Cub Scouts will sell snacks. Portola Valley School memorabil-ia, collected over the years by famiies and in archives will be on display all afternoon in the Community Hall. In addition to historic photos and documents, viewers can watch some scenes from the past on film and DVD: Skip and Barbara Bogart, starring in their Portola Valley ver-sion of “Romeo and Juliet,” and clips from legendary “Community Productions,” written and staged by the late Barbara Schneiderman as fundraisers for the schools. And there will be music, music.music — something for everyone — from 11:30 a.m. until 4 p.m. The Windy Hill Bluegrass Band, named after Portola Valley’s sig-nature backdrop, was started in 2008 by banjo player Ryan Breen of Portola Valley and another Menlo-Atherton graduate, Henry Warde, a mandlolinist. They reconnected with M-A classmate and bass player Kyle McCabe in 2009, and later, guitarist Thomas Wade and fid-dler Johnny Campbell, who comes from a long line of fidders joined up. Their story was featured in the Almanac on Sept. 14. A perennial favorite is also per-forming: Portola Valley’s Jim Pollock and Friends’ Dixieland band. And banjo player Jeff Pollock is rounding up a collection of local musicians, including singer Jill Rochlitz Bloch, who grew up in Portola Valley for a performance Also on the program: the “Acous-tic Therapy” band, and the Corte

Madera School Orchestra, led by music specialist Jason Braun. At 2:30 p.m. the action shifts to the Historic Schoolhouse. A panel of seven community members will discuss education topics in the Portola Valley district: “What Was, What Is, What’s Next?’ Anne Campbell, former super-intendent of the Portola Valley district and now San Mateo County superintendent of schools, will be the moderator, and will lead a dis-cussion with the audience after the panel discussion. Participating on the panel are: Sally Stewart and Bob Bauer, for-mer presidents of the Portola Val-ley School District board, and Bill Youstra, current board president; John Richards, a PVS graduate and Portola Valley Town council member; Robin Toews, who was hired by Superintendent Tony Rose and taught 40 years in the district; Andrew Katz, PVS graduate and former president of the Portola Val-ley Schools Foundation; and Lauren Rosenthal, a recent PVS graduate, now pursuing a degree in marriage and family counseling. Throughout the afternoon, chil-dren can scale the climbing wall,

bounce in the bouncy house, whiz down dual slides, and visit the pet-ting zoo. This year’s event combines the annual “Zotts to Tots Race” and Town Picnic, canceled in June because of rain, with the school dis-trict’s 150th birthday celebration. The town of Portola Valley and the Portola Valley School District are co-sponsoring the celebration. Some 50 community volunteers were involved in organizing the event. A

“The Story of Portola Valley Schools” is now a book. The cover features a colorful drawing of the Historic School House, and inside are memories going back to as early as those of teacher Miss Mamie Shine, from 1887-1904. Nancy Lund, Portola Valley town historian, delved into the history of the schools and wrote “Sesquicentennial Memories, The Story of the Portola Valley School District.” Its publication this week coin-cides with the community cel-ebration of the district’s 150th birthday on Sunday, Oct. 2, at Portola Valley Town Center. Copies of the book, $20 each, will be available for purchase at

the celebration’s recep-tion table. Proceeds will benefit the Portola Val-ley Schools Foundation. Ms. Lund’s earlier books with Pam Gul-lard are: “Life on the San Andreas Fault: A History of Portola Val-ley”; “Under the Oaks: 200 Years in Ather-ton”; and “History of Palo Alto: The Early Years.” Ms. Lund also played a lead role in writing “Centennial Memories: The Story of the Las Lomitas School District 1904-2004.
