MooreMart to Celebrate
1 th Anniversa
by Marc AyotteIt is a truly amazing,
inspiring and motivatingstory that started with asimple personal requestbeing answered. And just10 years later, the serviceorganization known asMooreMart continues to
receive national recognitionfor its patriotism and supportof thousands of UnitedStates Armed Forces servingthroughout the Middle East.
Paul Moore and his sisterCarole Biggio are co-foundersof MooreMart. It is Mooresmilitary history that hasplayed an ongoing and tellingrole in his involvement withthis wonderful endeavor. A1975 graduate of Alvirne HighSchool, Moore finished Airborne School in1978, completed Ranger School and wascommissioned in 1980 and while in theArmy served in Korea in 1981.
But Moores military service came to atragic and abrupt end that year when he wasinvolved in a parachuting accident whichresulted in him being in a body cast for ninemonths as well as undergoing therapy for18 months. Over 20 years later, Mooresill-fated jump would in part serve as theimpetus for starting the now nationallyrenowned liaison between deployed U.S.soldiers and caring loved ones at home.
In early 2004, Paul Moore received arequest from his brother, Brian, who had
been deployed to Afghanistanas part of the New HampshireNational Guard. In the first ofhis eventual three tours in theMiddle East, Brian requestedhis first care package. Asubsequent request by Brianinvolved sending a carepackage to a fellow soldier
in his unit. That turnedinto three or four packagesper shipment. And as PaulMoore recalls; it turned into20, then 40 as word spreadto adjacent units. Soonhe was sending out 100packages per month and theconcept of troop supportvia care packages sent fromhome, would prove to bemonumental.
On August 16, when thenext shipment is making its way to thetroops, the inception-to-date total countwill have reached a staggering 65,000 carepackages. Additionally, MooreMart willexceed 8.5 tons of relief supplies shipped,as part of the humanitarian aid effort to helpclinics, orphanages, scout troops, schoolsand other civic organizations in the MiddleEast.
The moniker of MooreMart came aboutearly on as a result of an e-mail Paul Moorereceived. He recalls the e-mail starting outwith: Dear MooreMart, and the reason forthat, according to Moore, was because thewriter intimated that we believe you havemore supplies than Wal*Mart! We used
Two New Support Programs
Approved by Hudson School Boardby Len Lathrop
During its August 4 meeting the boardapproved two staff programs that were presentedto them by Superintendent Bryan Lane. Bothwere presented, discussed and passed by theboard on a vote of 4-0. Chairman Laurie Bissenwas not in attendance.
A tech support program came from thetechnology subcommittee whose goal is toincrease the amount of technology supportavailable in each building within the district. Itwould create technical support assistant (TSA)stipend positions in each building for the initialscreening of requests for simple problems. Staffwould apply for these positions to provide
assistance to fellow staff for simple computerissues that could range from jammed printers todisconnected wires. School district computernetwork technicians estimate that more than 50percent of their requests for assistance are of thisnature. The TSA would be a staff member whois comfortable in solving these basic problems.There would be one TSA for every 30 staffmembers in a building. Each elementary campuswould have one, the middle school would havetwo, and at the high school there would be three.
The proposal is based on a time commitmentof three hours per week and the stipend wouldbe $2,300 per person. Eight TSAs would requirefunding of $20,000, which includes NH

10th Anniversary
Robinson Road Fire StationNow Staffed 24/7
by Len LathropKnown in the fire department as Station One,
located on Robinson Road almost in sight of thepond, now has a crew of three firefighters/EMTsaround the clock. The long-awaited openingoccurred on this past Sunday.
With the staffing of Station One the town nowhas nine firefighter/EMTs on duty at all times,with three staff members at each station. Thestaff scheduling continues to be based on fourgroups of firefighters/EMTs who work 24-hourshifts. Every station has an ambulance and thereare paramedics in every manpower group.
All Hudson firefighter/EMTs are cross apparatustrained, and apparatus alarm assignments havebeen adjusted under the direction of Chief RobBuxton to minimize response time and to havethe equipment and manpower on all emergencyscenes, to handle all situations.
As your HLNgoes to press Wednesday night,only three days have passed with Hudsonhaving three stations staffed 24/7. No data is yetavailable on new response times to north Hudsonhomes and will be shared with readers as soonas it is.
Sylvie Cotnoir, director of Laurel Place at Fairview Healthcare, extends a special thank youto Marjorie Trainor who served as a nurse in the U.S. Army.

7/25/2019 Hudson~Litchfield News 8-8-2014
3/15
Many interesting statements are made by town officials duringmeetings and other gatherings. While most dont warrant enoughfor a full story for our readers, some are great ideas, forward thinking
and others make you say what? Or just shake your head. Ournewspaper staff members when out and about are often askedquestions, as if we should know more than the average citizen.Sometimes we do, but many times we have to make phone calls tofind out.
Take a moment to ponder these thought-provoking happeningsaround Hudson and Litchfield:
Altering Traffic PatternsHudson Selectmen learned that change is hard. After a
recommendation from the Highway Safety Committee and twopublic hearings and hours of discussion, the traffic pattern in theSagamore Industrial Park has been changed. Just as they were
ready to vote on the town ordinance, a business owner in theindustrial park appeared before them stating that they have turnedWentworth Avenue into a race track with the removal of stop signsat both of the three-way intersections. Selectmen hope to keeptraffic from the park off Lowell Road especially with the arrival ofthe Comcast Call Center. They hope that by making it easier tocome out of the park on Flagstone Drive and turn right onto thebridge, it would keep traffic off of Lowell Road at Executive andHampshire intersections. Only time will tell.
Engineering ChangeE-mail released from the Hudson Engineering Department
indicated that Laurie Stevens is no longer the Hudson townengineer. Stevens had only been with the town for about fivemonths. The e-mail advised that those with engineering mattersaddress them to Gary Webster.
A Deadly ConcernA Litchfield reader called a member of the news team asking if
it would take a fatality for the state and the town to install a lightat the Page and Derry Road intersection. There was another severe
accident earlier in the day.
School District Money MattersDuring Monday nights meeting, the Hudson School Board
approved by a 4-0 vote $39,697.99 for Ex/Co-curricularnominations for the upcoming school year.
A final question for the Hudson School - what is the differencebetween a department head and a mentor?

Lynda Bennett Proclaims herCandidacy for Treasurerof Hillsborough County
Ralph Boehm Declares
Candidacy for LitcheldState Representative
I am Ralph Boehm, candidate for StateRepresentative for Litchfield. I am askingfor your vote to re-elect me to continuewhat I have always done. That is torepresent the people of Litchfield, all thepeople not some group, but all. I do notaccept donations from any individual,corporation, or unions. I am a retiredsoftware engineer, and as always will beyour full time representative. I have livedin Litchfield for 38 years. For 22 years,from 1988 to 2010 I was a Selectman,Budget Committee member, and on the
School Board . I have been a state rep in 2005-2006, and 2009 topresent. In the past I was on the Home Education Advisory Council
and presently on New England Board of Higher Education (NEBHE).During the 2013-2014 academic year, 15 Litchfield students saved anestimated total of $78,116 on their out-of-state tuition bills because ofNEBHEs programs.
As reported by the Nashua Telegraphsome months ago, I had100 percent attendance for the past two years. And to repeat whatsomeone had said in the Hudson~Litchfield News, one cannotrepresent you if they dont show up. Not only do I have 100 percentattendance for house sessions, I have also not missed any committeemeetings.
I am currently the ranking Republican on the House EducationCommittee and previously the vice-chair, and over the past years wehave passed a number of education bills to help fix the educationmess we have now. We increased tenure from three years to five, soyour school board can make sure we hire good teachers. I worked ona bill that decreased the mandates for home schooled students. Wealso passed a scholarship law that will make private school accessibleto all and not just the rich. But more needs to be done to put localcontrol back in education.
In the past two years I have received:99 percent and 100 percent from the House Republican Alliance
Highest among all Reps currently running.I am also on the New Hampshire Liberty Alliances five yearHonor Roll. And received an A- the past two years.A+ in the past two years from Americans for Prosperity.A+ from the NH Families for Education.
As you can see from these ratings, I am pro U.S. and NHconstitutions, pro-business and against any increase in taxes. Mygoals are to continue to protect your freedom of speech, religion, yourright to bear arms, and all other rights, including the 9th and 10thamendments which the federal government is abusing.
Challenges for this term is to turn around the states economy. Weneed to lower the corporation taxes, we are the 48th highest in thecountry, and the highest in the region. Young people are leaving thestate because of jobs, we need to keep our brightest in the state, andwe cant do this if businesses leave the state. We need to cut ourspending, but we need a good conservative governor to force the statecommissioners to slim their departments.
So please vote for Ralph Boehm on September 9th and allow me tocontinue to represent all the people of Litchfield. If you want to helpmy campaign by allowing a sign in your yard, holding signs at thepolls, etc., contact me at: rgboehm@comcast.net. Remember, I donot want your money, just your help and vote.
Lynda Bennett announced on August 1 hercandidacy for county treasurer of Hillsborough
County which includes 29 towns and two cities.If I am elected, I will be a strong advocateto return each fiscal year budget surpluses toour taxpayers and scale back our bonding forcounty projects which, in turn, will save dollarsfor our citizens, stated Hillsborough CountyTreasurer Candidate Lynda Bennett.
Lynda is a native of New Hampshire,attended local schools and graduated from
the University of New Hampshire and NewEngland Deaconess Hospital School of Nursing.She is a CMC Parish Nurse Volunteer, active inher church, and an avid sports fan. A formerregional administrator of Home Health Care,Lynda has two sons, Jeffrey and Gregory.
Some Comments on Weather Whys
Following are some comments on HLN s Weather Whys of last week.So far, the planet has only gained a degree F. from manmade CO2 in the
atmosphere. So of course, all the bad things have not happened yet. Tequestion is, what happens in a hundred years, when CO2 has doubled?With a constant Sun, and the present CO2 emissions trend, predictionscenter around a further increase of 6 degrees F.
We cant be completely certain of CO2s precise effects, but should webuy some insurance and cut its emission when the net cost is reasonable?Reducing the burning of coal saves lives. Wikipedia says: A studycommissioned by the Maryland nurses association in 2006 found thatemissions from just six of Marylands coal-burning plants caused 700 deathsper year... Tat is over 100 people dying, per year, for each coal fired pla nt.
As the article says, cuts in fossil fuel use are financially painful in the shortterm, and people dont want pipelines in their own backyard. WeatherWhys claims nor is anyone going to be allowed to build them.o the contrary, four small pipelines are under construction now.
Tey are l isted at http://www.northeastgas.org/pdf/system_enhance0714.pdf. A dozen specific proposals are listed at http://www.northeastgas.org/pipeline_expansion.php. I predict: Follow the money, we will getmore pipelines.
Te article speaks of warming in the tropics: where the modelsprojected the steepest rise. Tat is not what the models predict.Te models predict more surface warming at the h igher latitudesand less at the tropics, which has, in fact, happened. See http://stephenschneider.stanford.edu/Climate/Climate_Science/Science.html#Itislikelythathumanactivitieshavecausedadiscernibleimpactonobserved.Te models predict that in the tropics, troposphere warming should bemore than the warming of the surface there. Te graph shows the actualtroposphere warming. It is less than expected so the data are under review.
It is complicated. Sun was perhaps brighter in the 20th century thanfor hundreds of years. It has been less bright last 50 years, but the Earthcontinued warming. So to determine the amount of warming caused byCO2 we use science, and that means equa tions and models.And to project to the future, we must use models, since we obviously have
no data for the future. And local or short time data dont matter. We needa longer time frame, and global data. Tat is my proposal for the context ofthe quote spoken by Chris Folland. Te quote is from 1992. Te data forglobal warming were clear even then.
Paul Watson was half quoted in Weather Whys, to infer that Watsonis in favor of lying: It doesnt matter what is true; it only matters whatpeople believe is true ... But in the rest of the quote, that was notincluded, Watson continues: You are what the media define you to be... o know Watsons meaning you need more of the quote. Te quoteis from http://www.aim.org/wls/author/paul-watson/, with their source:Environmental Overkill, by Dixy Lee Ray with Lou Guzzo, 1993, page 172.
Spreading the truth is an uphill battle. Unfortunately, sometimes itdoesnt matter what is true. It only matters what people believe is true.
You can quote me on that. But use the whole quote, please.

the name originally as agood-natured joke, recalledMoore, adding, next thingyou know, people all over thecountry are sending e-mailsto MooreMart requestingsupplies.
In the formative monthsof the service, expensesassociated with sending thecare packages were paidby Moore, along with hisfamily and friends. In the
fall of 2004, Moore beganto obtain financial supportfrom veterans organizationsand the like and from thatpoint forth as he recalled; it
just exploded. Because ofthe increase in volume, shipments went from monthly to every sixweeks. When it (packages) hit four to five hundred, we went toevery ten weeks, said Moore. In the last three years, MooreMarthas been averaging 1,000 to 1,200 packages every shipment.
The service also incorporates seasonal themes into their supportof the troops. Christmas stockings are a big hit; a record 4,678stockings were sent in 2010 with an average of 3,000 per yearhaving been shipped since then.
Originally, all items destined for care packages were stored inMoores Nashua-based attorneys office. As the requests increased,the size of the storage facilities needed to house the items changedaccordingly. Currently, the donated and purchased items are storedlocally in Hudson and when shipment time comes around every13 weeks, the items are transported to the Nashua National GuardArmory where the three day packing and shipping process takesplace.
Thursday is set aside for set-up and inventory. Friday is pre-packing day, with Saturday being the big day when the items arepacked and shipped. Right now its a well-oiled machine, saidMoore of the network of volunteers involved in the shipment of thepackages. With a core group of 10 volunteers, he says that eachpacking event day also reflects about 30 different volunteers helpingout, resulting in about 100 different people showing up to help getthe packages on their way. Everyone is there because they have asincere desire to support our troops, expressed Moore.
One of the afore-mentioned core volunteers is Ted Luszey. Moorehas known Luszey for 25 years and says that Luszey offered hisservices back in the beginning and has since become a vital partof the operation. According to Moore, Ted is the backbone of theorganization. Without his managerial skills and hard work, only afraction of the packages would be going out the door. Moore alsocommends Luszeys wife, Deborah and their daughter, Ashley, fortheir spirited commitment to the MooreMart cause.
Each first care package sent to a soldier is identical to the nextone. However, inside that initial package, as explained by Moore, is
an index card on which soldiers are able to submit personal requests
for the ensuingshipment. And as isthe case with all theitems contained inthe care packages,there is no cost to therecipient or the familymember or friendmaking the request onbehalf of the soldier.We are one of thefew non-profit carepackage organizations
serving on donationsfrom the community,expressed Moore,adding; everyone isa volunteer; no onegets paid.
One of the aspects that Moore pays close attention to is thequality of the items sent to the troops. Were very careful aboutrotating stock, cited Moore who also noted that all items that arepurchased and/or donated, are brand names. If someone requestsOreos, they get Oreos, he said with a proud grin. Also, he notesthat special arrangements have been made with area suppliers andmanufacturers in an attempt to provide the freshest items possibleto the troops. We have on-demand buying, said Moore, addingrelatedly that it takes just seven days for the package to reach itsdestination. Think about that, urged Moore, half way aroundthe world into a battle zone I think its pretty impressive.
Moore also indicated that care packages are built to suitspecific soldier needs in the different geographic regions. Forinstance, troops in the mountainous terrain of Afghanistan wouldreceive hand warmers to deal with the colder weather, whilethose stationed in the desert would receive sunscreen. In additionto the necessary, regionally-specific items, Moore lightheartedlyindicated that over 8,000 T-shirts bearing the phrase MooreMartRegional Rep have been shipped to troops in the Middle East, notto mention 9,200 cases of Girl Scout cookies.
Through the years, MooreMart has received recognition fromthe White House, the U.S. Senate and the Department of Defense,to go along with citations from the state of New Hampshire. Inaddition, for their service to the National Guard, Moore hasreceived accolades from all of the major veterans organizations.Perhaps the most meaningful of all, was the recognition receivedfrom the Congressional Medal of Honor Society; presented toMooreMart for its support of the troops.
In remembering his stint in the army, Moore recalls that backthen, it took forever and a day to get a care package. Whileaddressing the importance to him of receiving a package fromback in the states, he explained; it was important for me to know
I had friends and family at home thinking about me. He believesthat feeling is prevalent with todays soldiers as well. Thats part ofthe motivation, he explained with respect to why he is still a drivingforce in the MooreMart endeavor. I was very lucky to survive andthere were a lot of people in the military that helped me and Id justlike to pay that forward, revealed Moore.
Today, as a Merrimack Circuit Court Justice, Moore continues tobe active in the day-to-day intricacies associated with supplyingcare packages to the troops. With regard to how he thinks thedeployed soldiers psyche is affected by the continued receipt ofcare packages, Moore shared his thoughts, I truly believe theaverage service man, and woman appreciates the fact that his orher community is supporting their deployment. He continued by
saying; by sending care packages, they recognize the community isrecognizing the sacrifices that the soldier and his family are making.Its a constant reminder they are not forgotten and that we appreciatetheir sacrifice, as a country as a whole.
As both active and retired service members ate, they reminiscedabout their days of service. A total of 15 people attended thebreakfast. The notable service members included Fairview residentBob Winter, who shared stories about being a guard at a Japaneseprison in 1947 during World War II.
Resident Edith Perkins also had a very heroic past herself.Perkins may have not served as an enlisted member o f the war, butwas considered a hero by the Fairview community just the same.Perkins worked at Atlantic Parachute Corp repairing and inspectingparachutes for American troops serving overseas in World War II.
Those of us who havent served were sure to say a heartfelt
thank you for giving us the freedoms we enjoy today, said RosieSamson, director of Community Relations at the Inn at Fairview,concerning the veterans.
The meal, provided by Fairview, included stuffed breakfastburritos, homemade red bliss potato home fries, homemadeblueberry muffins, banana bread, sausage links and fresh fruitsalad.
The Inn at Fairview/Fairview Healthcare appreciates thesacrifices that have been made in the past as well as the servicethat is provided today, Samson added.
The Inn at Fairview was added two months ago to give the facilityexpanded rehabilitation and specialized focus on memory care.Fairview will continue to serve the community with fundraisers andevents throughout the year. One of the next major events will bea car wash fundraiser on Saturday, Sept. 15 from 9 am to 1 pm toraise money to research a cure for Alzheimers disease.

Remember Hudson when ...Hudson Center and Hambletts Garage - the rst ALA Station
submitted byRuth Parker
Everett Hamblettoperated a garageat Hudson Centerfor many years. Hisfirst garage waslocated to the rightof the Old TownHall (now WattanickHall and home ofHudson Grange).The picture wastaken about 1920. Itshows three old carsbehind Everett BillHamblett leaningagainst a gas pump.Back then the pricefor gas was 24 cents per gallon. His garage was later moved onto what is now Central Street near the locationof Burger King.
submitted by Kathleen ChristopherOn Sunday, June 22, friends and
family joined Troop 20s ConnorHamilton at Hudson Fish and GameClub to celebrate his rise to the rankof Eagle Scout, an honor bestowedon less than two percent of boyswho join Scouting. While the rankembodies hard work, diligence andleadership, a boy might take a more
roundabout way to the top, withmultiple stumbles and starts alongthe way.
According to Master of Ceremoniesand former Troop 20 Scoutmaster BillZaharchuk, it took Connor a whileto get his Second Class merit badgedue to an inability to fold and repackhis tent at campouts. At this point inthe ceremony Connor was presentedwith an instruction pamphlet from theEureka Tent Company, much to theamusement of the audience.
Beyond packing tents, an Eagle candidate must earn 21merit badges; he must be active and serve in a leadershipposition in his troop. He must display an adherence to theprinciples of the Scout Oath and Law in the decisions hemakes and the actions he takes in his personal life. Finally,he must organize, plan and lead a service project to benefita religious organization, school or his community.
Connor is a quiet fellow, but he had a vision. Connor
is a lifelong member of St. John the Evangelist church inHudson, and it was there, during his years of religiousinstruction that Connor became familiar with the St.Vincent de Paul Food Pantry and its mission. He knewhe wanted to help the food pantry in its quest to serve thecommunity.
Father Pierre Baker was not immediately sold on theproject. He questioned Connors commitment beforepermitting him to begin, but Connor was true to his word.He and his crew replaced the food pantrys metal rackswith spacious, sturdy shelving over six weekends of work.Pauline Boisvert, director of the St. Vincent de Paul FoodPantry, expressed her appreciation for Connors project
which, she said, expanded storage in a l imited space andpermitted the organization of goods in such a way as toexpedite their retrieval. Since this food pantry servesapproximately one-third of Hudsons population, this is nosmall feat.
Connor admits there were bumps along the way. Theworst part, he said, was the proposal he had to preparefor the Eagle Board before they would sign off on theproject: 16 hours of writing, checking and re-writing.Before construction could begin, there was calculating andmeasuring, there was ordering and storing supplies; therewas the scheduling of work crews and tracking volunteerhours and expenditures and the meticulous logging ofeverything for the Eagle Boards review.
According to Father Baker, the finished project is a greatgift to the food pantry and to the Hudson residents it serves.And its a great legacy for Connor, who, through his efforts,exemplifies the first two lines of the Boy Scout Oath:
On my honor I will do my bestTo do my duty to God and Country
Well done, Connor. Well done.

Retirement and FICA. For this first year, the funds would come fromsavings in the vacant staffing list of the budget. After documentationand evaluation of the first-year operation, if successful, it wouldbecome part of the budget for the 2015-2016 school year.
The computer network technician in each building would keep alog that the district technology director would review on a quarterlybasis. In addition, an evaluation would be presented to the schoolboard in May to determine its viability.
The second program came from a recent survey of teachingstaff in which 98 percent responded that a mentor program for
teachers would be an essential facet in creating a better educationalenvironment within the district. After meeting with SAU staff it wasproposed and presented to the board.
The following was the bullet points of the presentation: Two mentors would be in place for every 30 staff members in
each building: two mentors at each elementary, four mentors
at Hudson Memorial and six mentors at Alvirne. Mentorexpectations would consist of one hour per week for 36 weeks at$25 per hour, $900 annually with an annual cost to the district of$14,400. In the FY15 budget, funds would come from savings insalary costs and for future years, the cost of the program wouldbe budgeted.
Two one-hour formal meetings would occur per month with thementees. This would be considered the study committee inthe contract for new staff. Informal meetings and responses toquestions would satisfy the other two hours per month.
Teachers new to teaching would be involved for two years;teachers coming with experience would participate for only oneyear.
Activity logs would be kept by mentors. On a quarterly basis, mentors would meet with the
superintendent to monitor progress of the program.
If there was a minimal need in one school and a greater need inother schools, budgeted resources could be moved annually.
Assistant Superintendent Phyllis Schlichter mentioned that shealready had a list of teachers wanting to be involved, and she sawthis setting a tone of leadership. Acting Chairman Patty Langlaisasked Beth Lavoie, president of the Hudson teacher union, who wasin the audience to speak to the board about this proposal, Lavoiewas very positive and explained that Superintendant Lane hadspoken with her about it. While she felt that teachers always try tohelp the teacher across the hallway, she thought having a formal
system with an assigned and compensated person would make iteasier to get answers. Board member Stacy Milbouer asked Laneif he felt that this would help hold on to people and overcome thelower salaries offered in Hudson. Lane replied that it was moving inthe right direction.
School Support- continued from front page
by Tom TollefsonIn its first year, redistricting has been a success according to the
Hudson School Administration due to the increase in state test scoresfor all levels of elementary school students.
Last year, staff and students were situated around the districtaccording to grade. All four school buildings had previously housedgrades kindergarten through fifth grade. Since the redistricting,grade levels are located this way:
Grades 2-5 at Hills Garrison;
Grades 2-5 at Nottingham West; First grade at H. O. Smith; and Pre-K and kindergarten at Library Street.The goals for this change have been to better meet the students
academic needs, spread out the districts resources, and helpimprove the test scores for each school.
Our goal was to create better practice for instruction andassessment and to make informed decisions around instructionthrough the use of data, said Hudson Superintendent Bryan Lane.
The test scores in both math and science have improved for alllevels of elementary school students in town according to the statestandardized test results, taken in the fall. The next standardized testwill come in the spring of 2015.
Our goal is to continue to increase our student scores and toensure that the gap with those with special needs and those withoutcloses dramatically, Lane said.
The school district has also begun using STAR Assessment, whichmeasures student improvement in math and reading throughout theyear. This assessment also showed an increase over the course of thefirst year after the recent transition.
In spite of the optimism for the new change, several concerns
were raised about transportation and cost impact on the districtsbudget.According to Lane there are no negative ongoing impacts on the
budget. The only cost item was $25,000 (larger than expected) forthe moving expenses.
The transportation costs remain the same on the budget, as noadditional buses were needed for the change.
Lane stated that we still have to cover the entire town regardlessin reference to the transportation.
Parents main concern was the increased commute times for theirchildren. Some parents reported that their children did not get offthe bus until 4 p.m. or later. Lane has stated that the district hasaddressed these issues by working to decrease travel times for thebuses.
Initially there were major problems which after about four to fiveweeks were solved. Some of the runs are a little bit longer, and we
worked throughout the school year to modify them to decrease traveltime, Lane said. We will continue to work to decrease travel timethroughout the district in every way possible.
Another concern parents had were the anxieties in their childrenas they dealt with the change of a new building, teachers, and newpeers.
Lane, administrators and teachers around the district agreedthat the school communities (teachers, principals, and guidancecounselors) excelled in easing the anxiety and p roviding a smoothtransition for all students.
I didnt see any sign of people not belonging, said Hills GarrisonPrincipal Marilyn Martellini. We worked really hard to get to knowthe students and the staff. Staff worked hard to welcome everyoneinto the school. We had a lot of new names to learn. I greeted thechildren at the front (door) every day, and you do whatever you needto make the children feel comfortable. The children adapted well tothe new facility and enjoyed it.
Lane has been pleased with the changes hes seen throughout theschools.
Its been a positive change across the board. There have beensome concerns from parents about the changing schools and
transportation that we are dealing with. Academically, it has been apositive change in every way, he said.The ideas for redistricting came from the administration team
comprised mostly of Lane and principals from around the district.The team developed the idea after analyzing the strengths andweaknesses of the district.
We found that there were class sizes that were not consistent,
Lane said referring to the fifth grade at Nottingham having 29students per class compared to H. O. Smith having fewer than20 per fifth grade class. We also found that there was a lack oforganizational structure because our resources were spread prettythin. We focused resources where they were needed most andcould be better utilized, and we came up with a plan to create achange in staffing patterns.
The staff at each school regularly meets in their grade level todiscuss curriculum, exchange ideas, analyze student data, discuss
student concerns, and discuss the strengths and weaknesses of theirclassrooms.It has been a very productive year for that exchange of ideas and
working together. I can honestly say that the teams meshed from thevery beginning, said Martellini.
The school administration believes this change has been critical tothe students recent progress. Instead of only having a small team ofteachers on grade level, H. O. Smith has all the first grade teachersin the district, and Library Street has all the pre-k and kindergartenteachers in the district. They believe this change gives the twoschools more individual ideas and strategies that can be shared anddiscussed in order to meet the best decisions for the students needs.
By focusing staff on grade levels we were able to create betteraccess for instruction, interaction between staff by grade levelto compare and contrast information, and enhance instructionalpractice, Lane said.
This year isnt the end goal for the district. The long-term goal isset for five years. In that time Hudson schools will continue workingtogether to increase state test scores for all levels of students;decrease academic learning gaps; and improve overall use of theirstaffing, time, and resources to better suit the needs of the students
as they prepare them for middle schoolTo make real change and academic progress we stated that ina five-year span we would have to show that we are successful inincreasing test scores for all students. At this time we are on our wayto doing that, Lane said.

Keep Them Home, Happy and Studying: Creating a Kid-friendly Space(BPT) - Would a great study space ease your childs transition from
summer to school? Perhaps an awesome lounge area could convinceyour teens - and all their friends - that your house is the best hangoutspot ever. Whatever your objectives, a few design and decoratingtricks can help you create a kid-friendly space in your home.
The basics of good design that make grown-up spaces appealingalso work for childrens spaces. When designing a kid-friendly room,however, its important to keep in mind not only the purpose of theroom (study, fun, sleep, etc.) but the age of the occupant, his or herinterests as well as incorporating fun into the design. Here are sometips to get you started:
* Consider creating a theme.Kids of all ages love themes. Todecide which one might be right for your project, consider thingsyour child has shown an enduring interest in. For example, she maybe into princesses right now and hate the theme next year. On the
other hand, if shes always loved the color pink and has a passionfor animals, those elements could be worked into a theme that shellappreciate for years to come.
* Choose flooring that fulfills multiple needs.Carpeting ab-sorbs sound (for when kids play loud video games or music) and iscomfortable for youngsters who like to sit or lie on the floor whilethey do homework, read, watch TV or socialize. Whats more, itsavailable in virtually every hue and pattern imaginable, ensuringyoull find something that appeals to both your design sense and
your childs tastes. Stain-resistant formulas and durable fibers ensuremodern carpeting can stand up to the rigors of use in a childs room.And, according to the Carpet & Rug Institute, properly cleanedcarpet can maintain indoor air quality, making it a viable choicefor families impacted by asthma and allergies. To learn more aboutcarpet, visit www.carpet-rug.org.
* A childs space needs layers of lighting, just as adult spacesdo. As youre choosing lighting, keep in mind how your child willuse the room. If he will be doing homework, task lighting and desklights will illuminate study areas. Will the room be a movie room ora hangout for older teens? Recessed and dimmable lighting maybe appropriate. Dont forget to include natural light in your illu-mination plans. Avoid heavy drapery. Instead, opt for bright colorsand lightweight materials for window treatments so windows admitample light. If you have a larger budget, consider adding a skylight
to provide light while preserving privacy.* Organization is key in a childs room, and ample storage facili-tates good organization.Depending on the size of the room andhow it will be used, shelving, portable cubes, book cases and otherfurnishings can provide plenty of storage space. For desks, look fordesktop organizers that will keep important papers and supplies tidyand close at hand. By helping kids stay organized now, youll be lay-ing the foundation for a lifetime of good organizational skills.
* Remember the fun factor. Whatever the purpose of a childsroom, fun should be a universal ingredient. You can infuse fun in a
room in many ways, from creating a video game center for loungerooms to choosing colorful, texturally appealing carpeting for a bed-room. A touch of whimsy, such as a swing hung from the ceiling ora wall mural of your childs favorite cartoon character, can producesmiles every time kids see them.
With some creativity and the right decorating materials, its pos-sible to create a space that will make children comfortable, happyand ready to tackle the new school year.
Teaching Kids to Give Back(BPT) - One of the most
rewarding reasons to getinvolved in your communityis to set a good example foryour kids. Whether you do-nate money or time, givingback is beneficial, and not
just for the recipients. Thereward for your selfless actscan be a beautiful thing forboth your community andyour childrens future. Butwhat are some of the waysyou can teach kids to giveback and what age should you begin encouraging them?
Giving back is just as much about volunteering as it is aboutphilanthropy. Dr. Lois Winchell, child and familytherapist at Argosy University, Sarasota, believesit should be a combination of both. If we wantour children to give back, our families need tobe involved in multiple activities, says Winchell.These include volunteering resources and timeand giving money when possible. Learning howto donate time can be a very powerful lesson forchildren because it is a giving of ourselves. Thisintimate experience can be significant and canoften reap a more personal reward than the offer-ing of money and things.
As with everything else in life, kids learn bestby example. The closer you can bring your childto the recipient of the gift, the more personal theexperience becomes.
Nurturing a sense of giv-ing and making sure this is avalue for your children startsas early as age 3 or 4, saysWinchell. At this develop-mental age, we can teachthem that others have feel-
ings and that your child hasan impact on those feelings.This sense of empathy is theunderpinning of charity. Themost significant impact onour children is what theyactually see us doing as it
relates to a giving spirit. As we engage in specific projects, we canhave conversations with our children regarding why the project isimportant and who will benefit.
Start by expanding their sense of environment, from the immedi-ate family to their local community and eventually the world aroundthem. A sense of awareness of something greater than themselvesis important in raising a compassionate individual. This sense ofresponsibility to others and the environment as a world citizen canbe supported by making children aware of others needs whetherin visiting a shelter or a food banks with family members or simplyhelping younger siblings.
From infancy to about 5 years old, children arent necessarilycapable of thinking outside of themselves. Even so, parents need tofoster their childs sharing with others, says Winchell. As childrengrow older they can begin volunteering and supporting communityprojects more directly. Whether they donate toys to a childrensshelter or simply participate in a walk for charity, these years are

Healthy Lunch and Snack Ideas for Back to School(BPT) - If schools and parents received report cards on the lunches
theyre serving kids, most wouldnt receive a passing score. Manylunches, whether served at school or brought from home, are madewith bleached flour, artificial sweeteners, food coloring, high-fructose corn syrup, artificial preservatives, hormones and trans fats.Studies have shown that these ingredients are linked to weight gain,defects in insulin and lipid metabolism, hyperactivity, increased riskof tumors, cancer, digestive issues, asthma, premature heart attacks,diabetes, and overexposure and resistance to antibiotics. Some ofthese ingredients are even banned in other countries.
As a parent, what can you do to keep your child healthy? LifeTime - The Healthy Way of Life Company, suggests checking in withyour childs school to learn where foods are sourced, the nutritionalvalues and ingredients in order to make informed decisions.
The more highly processed foods are, the more likely they are tocontain the seven unsavory ingredients. Meaning they are foods itsbest to find alternatives for, says Laura Burbank, a registered dieti-tian with the Life Time Foundation.
We encourage parents to speak with school nutrition direc-tors and cafeteria managers about reducing the amount of highlyprocessed and artificial items served in their lunch rooms, in favorof wholesome, real foods, and were able to help parents throughoutthat process, Burbank says.
Until changes are made, Burbank advises actively engaging kids
- starting when theyre young - in packing lunch at home. Gettingkids involved in packing their lunches makes them more likely toeat and enjoy them, says Burbank. They feel helpful and theyrelearning along the way. She says its important to include a protein,whole grains, fresh fruit, vegetables and healthy fats with every meal,and provides some ideas below.
Lunch box option one:* Lunch: turkey or ham sandwich with avocado and spinach on
whole grain bread. Look for meat that is free of hormones, antibiot-ics, nitrates, artificial preservatives and other additives.
* Snack: orange slices and string cheese.Lunch box option two:
* Lunch: grilled chicken breast, avocado and roasted bell pepperor shredded carrots in a whole grain pita with a Greek yogurt baseddressing or pesto.
* Snack: apple slices and almond butter. If your childs school hasa strict nut-free lunchroom guideline, include Greek yogurt withvanilla and/or honey.Lunch box option three:
* Lunch: a wholesome PB&J made with al-
mond butter and 100 percent fruit preserves on
whole grain bread.* Snack: hard boiled eggs, cherry tomatoes, cucumbers with
Greek yogurt based vegetable dipping sauce, or pita chips and pep-pers with hummus.
