Enrollment across Fulton Schools rises

By CANDY WAYLOCK candy@appenmediagroup.com NORTH FULTON — Enrollment in the Fulton County School System has inched up over the past few months to fill much of the estimated 3,500-student deficit from the start of the year.

The district projected an enrollment this year of 93,700 students before the COVID-19 pandemic hit. Instead, enrollment in August came in just over 89,000 students with most of the loss seen in the lower grades, primarily kindergarten.

That was expected, say district leaders. The district began the year with remote instruction because of the pandemic, and the state does not require students to attend school until age 6.

Chief Academic Officer Cliff Jones said the enrollment tide is now turning. Since August, nearly 2,500 new students have enrolled, primarily in kindergarten and 9th grade, which he attributes to the return of face-to-face learning.

The deficit, however, remains primarily in kindergarten classrooms. The school system estimated 6,000 kindergartners would enroll for the 2020-21 school year. Only 5,000 have enrolled to date.

“Families are making the choice to either hold their children back or find alternate education venues,” Jones said. “The children are there. They’re just not with us.”

The challenge moving forward, he noted, is the potential impact on Fulton Schools when those students return to the classroom.

“Right now we cannot assess the current level of instruction those 1,000 children are getting in their homes, daycare or other settings,” Jones said.

“But we know we will receive them

back. We are confident those kids [will return].”

He said the return will have an impact on the budget next year, as well as create a “demographic bubble” of students with possible education needs to address year after year.

“Our challenge is how we as a school system will meet the needs of those students, not just next year but [in future years],” Jones said. “That is a conversation we are having now.”

The option to return to classrooms began in mid-October with about 60 percent of students returning for faceto-face instruction.

A snapshot of students remote and face to face instruction: • 60 percent of elementary students opted for in-class learning compared to 43 percent of high school students.

A slight majority of middle schoolers returned to classroom instruction.

• Zone 5 (Centennial/Roswell cluster) had 71 percent return to classrooms compared to 36 percent in Zone 3 (Westlake High School cluster).

• More than 57 percent of students in special education classes returned to classrooms.

• About 63 percent of students receiving English language instruction opted for in-class sessions.

• The majority of White and Hispanic students returned for in-class instruction.

• Nearly 60 percent of Black students opted for remote learning.

• Nearly 80 percent of Asian students selected remote learning.

Jones said the spectrum of differences across the district represents the diversity of the population.

“It means our families are valuing our options to select the one that best meets the needs of their children,” Jones said. “And that we are offering a selection process that is high quality.”

Police search for porch pirates

JOHNS CREEK, Ga. — Police are investigating a pair of special deliveries reportedly taken from front porches on Nov. 2.

One missing item was an Amazon package reportedly stolen from the front porch of a residence along Winford Close.

According to police, a white Honda Accord with tinted windows and covered license plates pulled in front of the house with two occupants. One of the occupants rushed to the front door and snatched the package before the vehicle sped away. The suspect was wearing sunglasses, a hat and a face covering that masked their physical features.

Another package was reportedly stolen from a front porch one block south along Bailey Ridge Drive the same day, according to a separate police report. The owner told officers the package contained brand new brake rotors valued at $162.

The victim provided investigators security video of the theft. It also showed a white Honda Accord driven by a woman pull into the victim’s driveway. A male passenger wearing a surgical mask, sunglasses and a dark-colored hoodie then got out, stole the package and the two suspects drove away, that report stated.

Homeowner reports theft of Trump campaign signs JOHNS CREEK, Ga. — Police responded to a Prestwick Club Drive residence on Nov. 2 after the homeowner reported Trump signs in his front yard were painted then stolen.

The complainant told officers someone painted the two yard signs overnight Oct. 28, according to a police report. The man was able to clean the signs as well as his Ring security camera, which was also painted. But he said an unidentified suspect stole one of the signs overnight Nov. 2.

The homeowner provided police with security footage from the Oct. 28 incident, which show a man in rain gear holding what appeared to be a paint can, the report said.

DUI & Drug arrests Carl T. Huffstetler, 33, of Hampstead Way, Johns Creek, was arrested Nov. 3 on Hampstead Way for possession/purchase of schedule I and II controlled substance.

Jennifer W. Fitzsimons, 52, of Friars Head Drive, Suwanee, was arrested Nov. 3 on Hampstead Way for possession/purchase of a schedule I and II controlled substance and buying/possessing II, IV, V controlled substances.

Fulton battles rising COVID cases in schools

By CANDY WAYLOCK candy@appenmediagroup.com NORTH FULTON — In the space of one month, Fulton Schools went from celebrating COVID numbers that allowed a return to in-person instruction to considering a return to remote instruction.

“The number of COVID positive cases are increasing in Fulton County, as they are across the state, region and country,” said Fulton County Schools Superintendent Mike Looney. “We continue to collaborate with [Fulton County Public Health] officials, asking them critical questions as we continue to manage the increasing COVID cases.”

Looney said he had a “significant meeting” with public health officials last week where the question of whether the system should return to remote instruction came up.

“The recommendation is [the district] is on the right path of managing the ex-

posure,” Looney said. “The experience in our schools is to be expected in a situation when COVID is all around.”

The district reopened classrooms for in-person instruction on Oct. 14, but has since temporarily closed multiple schools because of COVID. In four weeks, the positivity rate in Fulton County rose from slightly over 100 cases per 100,000 residents to 171 cases.

“The data speaks for itself,” Looney said. “The trend is rising cases in most of our communities.”

Looney emphasized his intent is to keep the district open for in-person instruction for those who choose, but will yield to public health officials if they believe all 100-plus schools across the district should close.

Currently, the district is following a three-stage plan on how to handle COVID cases within the school. The district has changed some of the protocols, including now notifying every parent if

cases have been identified in their child’s school. Previously, only those directly impacted would be notified.

So far, impacted schools have closed for up to three days to allow contract tracing for exposure, deep cleaning and disinfection. Contract tracing now follows updated CDC recommendations, which includes anyone who has been in close proximity to an infected person for at least 15 cumulative minutes over a 24-hour period.

Fulton Schools will also begin providing school-based COVID Information twice a week — on Monday and Thursday — instead of only weekly reports.

The information provides a synopsis of confirmed cases among staff and students along with numbers of those quarantined after direct exposure.

Looney said school data for quarantine includes only those confirmed to have exposure within a school setting, not in the general public.

He noted the district has seen a very low rate of positive cases developing among the hundreds of individuals who have had to quarantine as a result of exposure. That said, the district will continue to mandate a 14-day quarantine for anyone with exposure to a COVIDpositive individual, regardless of any negative tests.

Looney asked for the community’s help in keeping the district open by staying home when sick and not coming to school while awaiting results of a COVID test.

“It is imperative you do not come to school or work if you are sick or if you are waiting test results,” Looney said.

“As a school district we will not be able to remain open if people continue to do that sort of thing.”

The decision on how instruction will be delivered next semester will be made at the Nov. 19 meeting of the Fulton School Board.

Veterans host small ceremony in Newtown Park

By KATIE ANDERSON newsroom@appenmediagroup.com JOHNS CREEK, Ga. — About a dozen veterans gathered at Newtown Park Nov. 11 for a ceremony to honor those who have served in the U.S. armed forces.

Johns Creek Newtown Park is home to the 4-acre Veterans Memorial Walk and the Wall That Heals. The walk features a trail with black, granite monuments recognizing each conflict involving American armed forces since World War I. It also includes special monuments to Purple Heart recipients, POW/MIAs and women in service. The City of Johns Creek laid a wreath at the entryway of the Veterans Memorial Walk in honor of Veterans Day. Johns Creek acquired The Wall That Heals, a 250-foot replica of the Washington D.C. Vietnam Veterans Memorial, in March.

Quartermaster Bill Howell, a member of the Johns Creek Veterans Association, led the ceremony at the World War I monument.

“Johns Creek Veterans Association is all about celebrating military history and honoring veterans, that’s our mission,” Howell said. “We also have a social mission which is to support each other. They really miss their military friends and military camaraderie. So, it’s important that we support each other.”

Howell explained that until 1954, Nov. 11 was known as Armistice Day, the day hostilities ended in World War I.

KATIE ANDERSON/HERALD

The City of Johns Creek laid a wreath at the entryway of the Veterans Memorial Walk in honor of Veterans Day. To pay homage to Armistice Day, Howell had a bell rung 11 times in three sets to symbolize the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month, the time peace was set to begin on the Western Front of World War I. Following the ringing of the bell, Capt. Harold Earls and 1st Sgt. Dennis

Palmer laid a wreath on the World War I monument.

Palmer, who served for 27 years and in 11 different countries, explained that while COVID may have changed his normal observance of Veterans Day, he still planned to visit and speak with veterans and let them know that they are appreci-

ated and remembered.

“Freedom ain’t free,” Palmer said. “We want to make sure that all these veterans know they aren’t forgotten and they are appreciated, that’s what this day is all about.”

To accompany the veteran’s ceremony, the Johns Creek Symphony hosted the Midtown Brass Quintet to play in the gazebo on the memorial walk.

Col. Mike Mizell, president of the Johns Creek Veterans Association, said because of COVID concerns the ceremony had to be kept small with no public invitations, but he hopes to host future ceremonies in the park.

“I’ve gotten many phone calls from other veterans asking me when we are going to do something here at the Wall That Heals,” Mizell said. “We will work closely with Johns Creek officials to host ceremonies applicable for each designated veterans’ anniversary while being as responsible as we can to comply with COVID-19 restrictions.”

Mizell said the beautification project at the memorial walk will start this month and be completed in spring 2021.

Plans call for white and green flowers and shrubs that will make the memorial walk more enclosed and private. He also plans to add four additional plazas to the memorial walk.

Mizell expects that Newtown Park will be a spot for future Veterans Day ceremonies for veterans throughout Georgia.

The Johns Creek Veterans Association plans to host a ceremony in March for Vietnam Veterans Day.

JOHNS CREEK, Ga. — The Johns Creek Art Center hosted a drive-up family event on Nov. 7 to help residents celebrate and learn about the Hindu holiday, Diwali.

Diwali, the most important holiday celebrated by Hindus, is known as the Indian Festival of Lights. Deepa Lahoti, Johns Creek Art Center board member, said that Diwali marks the Hindu New Year and is a celebration of the victory of light over dark and good over evil. Diwali takes place every year in late October or early November on the New Moon, which occurs on the darkest day of the lunar month. This year Diwali took place on Nov. 14. On this day, houses are cleaned and lamps or candles are lit to welcome new beginnings and good fortune.

Part of the Arts Center’s mission, Lahoti said, is to celebrate the diversity in Johns Creek and help teach others about the cultures around them.

“Basically, we just want to celebrate our entire community,” Lahoti said. “We want everyone to be involved. We want to also help with the artwork and the teaching of what the significance is behind these events.”

be viewed on the art center’s website at johnscreekarts.org.

Original plans called for the Diwali celebration at the Arts Center to include music and performers along with the exhibit. Because of COVID-19 concerns, the board opted for the drive-up event.

Lahoti said the Arts Center’s mission extends beyond holidays and cultural celebrations. It trickles into other aspects of the community, including the underserved.

“It’s not just to celebrate the holidays, but it’s to serve the underserved whether they’re children or the elderly,” Lahoti said. “We work to serve everyone and not leave anyone out.”

Althea Foster, programming director and curator for the organization, said that the art center has plans for seven family days to celebrate more holidays, such as Chinese New Year and the Day of the Dead in 2021. Foster said they hope to make these celebrations an annual occurrence and eventually hold them in the facility.

In January, the Johns Creek Arts Center will have another virtual exhibit, “Perspective 2020,” highlighting art created in 2020 and how the artists viewed the year.

OPINION

8 | November 19, 2020 | Johns Creek Herald | NorthFulton.com

OK, so here’s how you contest an election I don’t have the ear of the president, but I do have some success in contesting an election.

It happened some 40 years ago when I was at a small newspaper in Marion, Kansas.

Marion is a PAT FOX town of about 1,700 Editor pat@appenmediagroup.com people, mostly farmers and ranchers.

The newspaper office sat across the street from the county courthouse, a giant limestone building. On the front lawn of the courthouse, there once sat an old Civil War cannon, its barrel pointed at the newspaper.

I knew a lot of people in the courthouse, the treasurer, sheriff, tax assessor — all the major players. I was drinking buddies with the director of the Noxious Weed Department, if you can believe such an office existed. It did then, for sure. If it did its job, maybe it no longer exists.

I was particularly close to the county clerk, Marquetta Eilerts, as smart and kind-hearted a person as anyone you’d ever want to meet. She knew everything, but she exhibited not a hint of boastfulness. Countless times, she patiently helped me sift through records for my articles. She also served as the county’s chief election officer.

In 1983, there was a local election for school board. When I went to vote, the precinct worker handed me a paper ballot for whatever races I was permitted to vote on. A day after casting my ballot, I learned there had also been a contest for the board of directors of the Cottonwood Valley Drainage District. I hadn’t received a ballot for that race.

The Cottonwood Valley Drainage District manages drainage for land along the Cottonwood River. It is governed by three elected board members and operates on an annual budget of around $5,000 which it collects in property taxes.

I discovered that I happened to live

within the district, so I inquired from elections officials why I didn’t get a ballot. They said that only those who own personal property within the district were eligible to vote for board members.

At the time, I owned a 12-inch, black-and-white TV and a car. I paid little attention to the TV, but I paid ad valorem taxes on the car.

So, I filed suit in Marion County District Court. I filed the papers myself —no attorney. Researching the law (from books, because there were no computers back then), I learned I had to provide evidence that I had been deprived of my right to a ballot — which I had — and that my vote would have made a difference in the Drainage District election — which it would not have.

The top vote recipient garnered maybe 12 votes, and the third-place board member received four. However, if I found other qualified voters who had gone to the polls and had not been issued a ballot, I could make a case that our combined votes might have affected the results.

Soon after filing the suit, I received a call from the Kansas chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union offering free legal counsel.

Here’s one thing about Marion, Kansas. The quickest way to make friends there is to decline an offer from the ACLU. I thanked them and hung up.

A couple weeks later, I appeared in court, facing off against the county attorney.

Doug Westerhaus was the ideal for a rural county attorney — tall, smart and well-spoken with a friendly Kansas accent. I’d covered some of his prosecutions, and he was as adept at winning cases as anyone I’d seen.

If he’d have really wanted to, Doug Westerhaus could have murdered me in court.

Instead, he lobbed a few softball objections at me as I presented my case before the judge. I argued that the election had been held with as much attention to detail as a high school cheerleading contest, and I presented records

showing some 13 qualified voters who went to the polls and had not received a ballot for the Drainage District election.

Westerhaus made his case, too, arguing that not one of the voters, including me, had requested the special ballot at the time.

After hearing our arguments, District Judge Melvin Gradert ruled that the county had conducted the election based on faulty registration records, and he ordered that another election be held to decide the three Drainage District seats.

Less than a month later, the county conducted the special election. Voting stations were set up in the courthouse lobby. From my vantage point across the street, turnout did not seem heavy.

At 6:53 p.m. on election night, my desk phone rang. It was the county clerk.

“Pat, this is Marquetta. You know, I’ve come to enjoy working with you these past couple of years because you seem dedicated. I have never minded going the extra mile to help you — but, if you don’t get your butt over here and vote in the next five minutes, I’ll never have anything more to do with you!”

I raced across the street.

It was a write-in ballot because no one ever cared enough to pay a filing fee for the positions. Each board member received $25 a month in salary. I think I wrote in the name of the Noxious Weed Department director.

Anyway, the next day, Marquetta called me with the results.

There had been about 18 votes cast.

Three had my name on them.

It was a shock. It was also just enough to make me the third-place finisher, sweeping me into office as a member of the Cottonwood Valley Drainage District Board of Directors.

I served two months, then resigned. I don’t think reporters should hold public office.

Anyway, I used part of the $50 I collected in salary to buy a round for the Noxious Weed Department guy and anyone else who stopped by our table — my way of giving back to the taxpayers.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

Was poll worker really out of line?

RE: “White Forsyth man draws attention to support black cause” The article in the Herald’s Nov 5 issue took at face value the partially biographical story of Zack Arias beginning with his being asked to remove a “Black Lives Matter” T-shirt at the Sharon Springs poll before voting. Mr. Arias’ position held that “Black Lives Matter” was not a political statement in violation of electioneering rules at polls.

The author shares Mr. Arias’ personal experience as a Forsyth County resident who witnessed racially insensitive behavior and discriminatory policies but failed to offer further context or an alternative perspective. Could it be that Mr. Arias is the one who is biased, and the poll worker was right to ask him to remove the shirt? Even though the sentiment embodied in the phrase “Black Lives Matter” really has no opposition, it is also true that the Black Lives Matter organization that coined the phrase is extremely political. The organization’s original website explicitly stated political positions of an extreme nature and was edited significantly once scrutiny of it was applied earlier this year.

One of its founders, Patrice Cullers, described herself and one of her cofounders as “trained Marxists.” Hitting the Donate button on their site takes you to ActBlue.com, a financial clearing house for democratic party operations.

Simultaneously, there were numerous reports of voters wearing MAGA hats not being allowed to wear them when voting. “Make America Great Again” is an innocuous statement on its own, but it is certainly attached to a particular political campaign, and removing the hats can reasonably be seen as a correct decision by poll site managers who would ask wearers to remove them. Could that Sharon Springs poll worker also have been correct in her original judgement?

OPINION

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

A word of encouragement during these tough times As a long-time resident of Johns Creek, I’ve seen our community come together to support each other through the years. Now, more than ever, it is time to focus our collective energies to help families who are experiencing additional pressures due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Resiliency while facing loss of income, loss of time, and loss of a sense of freedom is possible if we recognize we are all in this together. The “Shecession” articles, published recently in The Herald, focus on the particular impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on women. In Part 5, the author paraphrases Dr. Rebecca Gomez in sharing, “Data shows women are reporting greater emotional distress related to the pandemic compared to their male counterparts.” I would like to echo the concerns, while also sharing words of encouragement.

The article suggests the pandemic has created the “perfect storm” of stressors and disrupted traditional self-care activities. I know women who work full time, support young children in virtual classes and still manage their home. Add reduced hours or furlough or an ailing parent and “too much” quickly becomes overwhelming.

So where’s my encouragement? Get to know your neighbors. Ask someone to go for a walk and truly listen to their story. Maybe your new neighbors are a young couple with a new baby and just need someone to talk to on a regular basis. Maybe your neighbor’s spouse is deployed and there are some minor repairs needed in their home, and you just happen to be pretty handy. Even a hand-written note can mean so much.

Physical distancing does not mean emotional connection has to end.

The pandemic has radically altered

what we consider “normal,” but this is an opportunity. This disruption may be just what we need to discover that we need each other. We are stronger together. When we recognize our differences and choose to be connected in a compassionate and supportive way, our relationships are healthier. When our relationships are healthier our communities become healthier. Humans need to feel connected to something outside of us, something “bigger” than us. Start by getting to know your neighbors.

Let’s end this trying year with gestures of kindness

As the holiday season approaches, it is a time of joy to be with friends and family that we may have not seen in a while. Also remember it can be a time of sorrow.

There are those that don’t have anyone. They may have lost a loved one or they may being trying to figure out how to provide a Christmas for their family and be out of work due to Covid. So, when we get caught up in the hustle and bustle of the holiday season, stop and just take a breath. Smile behind your mask it will show through. Hold the door open for someone. When a person is holding up the line counting out change, know it might be all they have.

Be patient. You will get where you need to go. Buy a drink for the person behind you. Say hi to a stranger. The greatest gift you can give is of yourself and time. Volunteer if you can.

Above all in this crazy year let’s finish it as the best version of ourselves and remember what the holidays are all about. Giving thanks, being kind and above all, grace. God bless and a safe rest of the year.

We’re just bringing a different type of environment now that CBDs are kind of getting out of the shadow of THC and people are learning what it is.

Hemp Farmacy brings CBDs out of the shadows Couple espouse benefits of quality product line

By MATT BRUCE news@appenmediagroup.com ALPHARETTA, Ga. — Not all cannabidiols are created equally.

Richard and Christy Roth are helping blaze a trail in North Fulton, one they hope will bring more legitimacy to the local CBD market.

In May, the couple opened a Hemp Farmacy at 5250 Windward Pkwy. The high-quality CBD store offers a roster of hemp-based products ranging from bath bombs, to full-spectrum vapes, salves, pills and teas.

Hemp Farmacy is a North Carolina franchise that markets itself as “the East Coast’s first hemp dispensary” with eight locations across the Tar Heel State.

Richard and Christy Roth were introduced to the company while attending a business summit last year. They were drawn to an educational approach that focuses on teaching customers about CBDs and decided to open a franchise of their own.

The Roths’ shop in Alpharetta is Hemp Farmacy’s first location outside of North Carolina. They leased their storefront at the end of February with plans to open April 1. But the COVID-19 pandemic forced them to postpone the grand opening to May 15.

“We’re just bringing a different type of environment now that CBDs are kind of getting out of the shadow of THC and people are learning what it is,” Christy Roth said.

Marijuana and hemp are both harvests of the Cannabis sativa plant, which contains more than 100 chemical compounds known as cannabinoids. Tetrahy-

MATT BRUCE/HERALD

Richard and Christy Roth opened a Hemp Farmacy at 5250 Windward Pkwy.

drocannabinol, or THC, and cannabidiol, or CBD, are the cannabinoids that the plant produces in highest concentration.

Industrial hemp is naturally high in CBD and low in THC, the flower’s pyschoactive ingredient that gives users their “high.” The federal government defines hemp as any Cannabis plant with a THC concentration less than 0.3%.

Ushering in the CBD industry Georgia lawmakers legalized hemp growth in July 2019, opening the door for certain CBD products to be sold.

CBD is known for its natural healing properties. Clinical research shows that the compound can be used to treat cancer, chronic pain, seizures, inflammation, reduce blood pressure and fight anxiety. A pair of preliminary studies this year even suggest CBD can help patients suffering from severe cases of COVID-19.

“That’s been the hardest part, fighting the stigma behind it,” Richard Roth said, “people not understanding the health benefits and the qualities of what it can do for you.”

Richard Roth had his prostate removed during an initial bout with cancer that faded into remission. The terminal illness returned to his body three years ago and he had to undergo 38 rounds of treatment to battle it back into submission. He began using a CBD vape pen to ease the pain and discomfort of the treatments and became a firm believer in its therapeutic qualities.

The CBD industry is still relatively new and remains an unchartered frontier in many ways. While shopping for his supply, Richard Roth noticed a lack of accessibility and a landscape with few credible CBD options for people seeking relief.

The couple said some storefronts only had low inventory, while others were smoke shops that they didn’t find inviting. Richard Roth said he also encountered uninformed or disinterested service clerks who couldn’t help him find the products he needed. Other times, he tried products that didn’t live up to what they promised.

“What we found in the marketplace was you either go into a very seedy store like a gas station where you didn’t know what you were getting,” Richard Roth said. “A lot of the products out there are just not regulated, so people don’t know.”

Out of the shadows Hemp Farmacy intends to bring Cannabis out of the shadows by creating friendly, high-quality CBD shops that appeal to women. Christy Roth noted that all of the products sold in the stores are thoroughly tested and vetted before hitting the shelves.

“We want to be an anti-smoke shop,” she said. “A welcoming, safe place to come and learn where we focus on education and safe products. We want to listen to people.”

Hemp Farmacy boasts some of the most popular brands in the world, like Willie’s Remedy, country musician Willie Nelson’s line of products. The store also keeps a supply of gummies, fibers, CBDinfused hot teas and coffees, loose flower hemp, pre-rolled joints, hemp oil tinctures and pet products, and topical bath salts.

Christy Roth, a molecular biologist, researches the products to ensure the shop offers the very best options.

“I’m a science nerd. So I like knowing about it,” she said. “I’m drawn to the science of it.”

In fact, it’s science that brought her and Richard together. Richard owns a lab in Sandy Springs that does molecular testing for hereditary cancer, genetics and, of late, COVID-19. It’s Christy who runs the lab.

While Christy sizes the products up and down, it’s Richard who puts them to use.

Not only has he battled cancer, he has arthritis in his hands, he got into an auto accident and fused two vertebrae in his neck, requiring two surgeries. He also ruptured tendons in his knee after falling down the stairs during his second bout with cancer.

“Pretty much when people come in — anxiety, depression — I’ve had almost every bit of what they’re going through before,” he said. “So I’m the test dummy.

I can give them real-life experience. This is what I use. It works!”

Ingenify founders, clockwise from front left, Paul Philip, Benson Zhang, Jatong Su and Bedansh Pandey discuss updates to their tutoring directory at a recent bi-weekly meeting held outdoors at a neighborhood clubhouse.

Teens create all-in-one directory to match students with tutors

By KATIE ANDERSON newsroom@appenmediagroup.com JOHNS CREEK, Ga. — Four local high school students have created a nonprofit to help those struggling with online learning.

Ingenify is a free tutoring connection website created by Northview High juniors Benson Zhang, Paul Philip, Bedansh Pandey, and Jatong Su. Pandey, who serves as director of communications, explained that when schools first shut down, he and his classmates struggled, but he was lucky enough to have access to a tutor. He said he and his friends realized that many students don’t have the same resources, so they developed a way to help.

Originally, the four students thought of creating a service where they, themselves, could tutor students, but virtual tutoring was already booming. Instead, they opted to build a centralized site to connect students with tutors.

“It takes away the hassle for the student to have to scour the internet for a high-quality tutor when they can find all these tutoring sites and things like that on our own centralized website,” Pandey said. “Jatong, our CEO, likes to say ‘there’s a lot of doing, and there’s a lot of saying’ you know, a lot of these nonprofits get stuck at the saying, but it’s time to actually commit to the doing, and that’s what we’ve been doing.”

The site launched in May and has since accumulated more than 300 users, both students and tutors. All tutors are of high school age and students are in elementary and middle school.

Currently, the four board members meet weekly over Zoom and bi-weekly in parking lots or outdoor spaces to work on Ingenify in a COVID-safe environment.

They discuss outreach to schools and tutors, and they chart progress from the previous week.

While Ingenify was developed as a way to help underprivileged students, Ingenify President Jatong said it also benefits students who need volunteer hours who would normally tutor.

Philip, the director of outreach, said he was drawn to the project because he and his sister tutor students in Dekalb County.

“I thought that this could be kind of a tremendous opportunity to reach out to those kinds of communities,” Philip said. “You know, so many kids are struggling already, and not being in school just makes it even worse. So, we thought that something like this would make a big difference.”

Students and tutors can make a free account at ingenify.org. All tutoring sessions take place on Zoom and are free for students. Ingenify keeps track of hours for those volunteers seeking credit for service.
