Lick-Wilmerding

For the many years I lived in SF, I often drove by Lick-Wilmerding when driving down to go shopping in Daly City.  Never did I ever think that I would actually be teaching there.

The Upper Hallway of the Main Academic Classroom Building. 

Three of my four classes are taught in the first classroom....Room 1.

Downstairs, tucked away in a back corner, down a small hallway....The Math Department Office!

The view from the Math Office.

All eight of us full time Math teachers have our desks in the Math Office.  It's fun to be in a big office again with my colleagues.

My desk!  Yes, you see two laptops.  One of them is my personal laptop, the other, the one given to me by the school.  I keep a "separation of work and school" policy with my computers.

The classroom building opens up into the more modern portion of campus.  Here's the dining hall, or in Lick speak, "The Caf"

Usually filled with tables for the students, this was taken on Back to School Night.

Full Sandwich bar.

The salad bar in the foreground, and the hot lunch line in the background.  Free lunch!

The library on the top level, and photo labs, classrooms a drafting studio on the bottom level.

Lick was started as the California School of Mechanical Arts by James Lick.  Students still must take shop, electrical, metal and computer arts as a graduation requirement.  Head, Hearts and Hands.

Down on the lower level of campus are the studios.

The Design Studio Building, which also houses the Theater Tech

I wish I could take these classes with the students...but it's not allowed.  Boo.

The view from campus with Bernal Heights hill in the distance.  It's a 5 minute drive, 15 minutes by bike and about the same by trolley.
