Just to be sure, does 子年を飾る means "to adorn the year of the rat"? Also, does ご覧あれ means "behold"?

2. ではロミオとジュリエットの劇をするにあたって説明と 皆さんの自己紹介を行います
Can someone tell me what にあたって might mean in the sentence above?

3. http://i.imgur.com/WDOVj.jpg
Does the line 学生がしてもいいとお思いですか mean "do you think students can do that"?

4. http://i.imgur.com/P3cik.jpg
a/ I know this is troublesome, but can someone read the part between 何 and でもあるのでしょうか in the first panel? I totally can't read those words at all.
b/ Does お相手の方 mean "the acting partner" in this contex?

a/ Just to be sure, does 女の子に囲まれて困ってるかもしれないし means that 瑞穂 is probably in trouble being surrounded by girls at the moment?
b/ Does the structure AがてらB mean "do A and B at the same time"? How is it different from ながら?
c/ 帰ろ is the girl's way of saying 帰ろう, correct?
1. Yes + Yes.

2. It means "regarding ~~~".

3. Yes. "Do you think it's okay for students to (kiss)?"

4a. 「何やら問題でもあるのでしょうか」

4b. Yes.

5a. Yes.

5b. Best question so far!! There is a big difference.

ながら = doing two things simultaneously
がてら = doing Thing B (secondary purpose) on the occasion that you do Thing A (main purpose)

5c. No. It's used by both men and women when speaking colloquially.
