Festival T-shirt designs displayed

By Nancy Edwards • news@currentinfishers.com

More than 2,000 local students hoped to be commemorated as part of the 25th anniversary celebration of the Fishers Freedom Festival celebration by having their T-shirt design chosen to celebrate this year’s theme, A Quarter Century Celebrating Freedom. Ten out of 17 district schools had students from kindergarten through 12th-grade submit drawings, all displaying their interpretation of the theme. This year, the public was involved through yesterday in choosing their favorite T-shirt design from the top 90 designs on the Fishers Arts Council Facebook page (www. facebook.com/FishersArt). Currently showcased in Fishers Town Hall, the top chosen 200 pieces of artwork from all elementary grades and junior high are hung for the public to view until Sunday. “This is another way for residents to get involved with the festival,” Lisa Vielee, vice president of Fishers Arts Council, said. “No one (previously) got to see the students’ artwork except (the Fishers Arts Council and Fishers Freedom Festival). Representatives from the Fishers Freedom Festival and the Fish-

ers Arts Council teamed up more than a year ago to showcase the art. “We’re real excited about the designs chosen this month,” Jennifer Kehl, executive director with Fishers Freedom Festival, said. Krissy Schenck of Fishers and her family attended the grand opening of the exhibit from 10 a.m. to noon on March 16. Schenck’s two daughters, Evelyn, a kindergartner, and Olivia, a fourth-grader, both had artwork that was chosen for the top 200. Evelyn drew stars for the freedom theme, while Olivia drew a man from the military in a wheelchair as part of her design to remember freedom. “A lot of people are hurt in the Army and in wheelchairs,” Olivia said. “I drew the picture so people in wheelchairs won’t feel left out.” From the first week in April through the first week in May, art from students in Fishers High School and Hamilton Southeastern High School will also be on display. A $500 prize will go to Fall Creek Intermediate School for being the school with the highest number of students to participate in the design contest.

COMMUNITY Government

Fishers Town Council, March 18

Haute Taste Catering Serving exceptional cuisine beyond ordinary

What happened: A discussion was held on trash pick-up town-wide during the work session. What it means: Bid responses from companies to do town-wide trash collection came in. Tony Elliott, assistant to the town manager, detailed survey data the town collected during the process, which included trash collection prices paid by the more than 600 responders and what they found important. Elliott said four bids for the service came in, with Republic being the lowest base bid for five years of service at $10.49 per month. That allows for weekly trash collection and biweekly recycling. There are options for different container sizes and multiple alternates of the bid, according to the town’s legal counsel. Town Manager Scott Fadness said the council has eight months to approve a bid, and staff wants to start a public information campaign and get feedback. The council gave consent to move forward in the process, with the only council member disapproving being Michael Colby.

What’s next: The town will move forward with the public outreach process.

What happened: The town council made a proclamation. What it means: The council proclaimed March 25 as the Rotary Club of Fishers Day. The organization is now more than 20-years-old and boasts 110 members. Councilor and Rotarian Scott Faultless read the proclamation.

What’s next: The proclamation was made to recognize the club.

What happened: A resolution for appropriating additional town funds was approved. What it means: A contract with Church, Church, Hittle, and Antrim was approved after the budgeting process for this year. The firm provides legal services at the Town Court. The contract is for $3,000 a month, or $36,000 for the year. That money wasn’t budgeted for. Another fund that needed appropriated money was the Continuing Education Fund for FPD at $103,000 which was budgeted, but “was mistakenly excluded for 2013” appropriation, according to a council action form.

What’s next: Funds for both accounts were to be appropriated after the council meeting.

What happened: The town council approved an amendment to the Unified Development Ordinance and Zoning Map. What it means: The amendment rezones the municipal district to the Town Center Mixed-Use zoning district, according to Jodi Dickey, senior planner. It allows for the new mixed-use development that is planned for downtown.

COMMUNITY Cover Story

By Dan Domsic • dan@youarecurrent.com A new chapter is closer to beginning for students in the Hamilton Southeastern Schools District, and it all will start with teachers turning on their own iPads. The Hamilton Southeastern School District is in the midst of getting each teacher an iPad as one phase of implementing HSE21, an initiative that focuses on teaching 21st century skills and placing a tablet into the hands of every student. A technological leap for the school system, the project has been in the planning stages since fall 2011. The pilot program could be implemented in the 2014-15 school year. And that’s a leap that could help students close a skills gap – skills that employers are now expecting today’s worker to have, according to assistant supt. Dr. Beth Niedermeyer. “I think the best reason to move forward (with HSE21) is because we’ve been Niedermeyer hearing from businesses that students need 21st century learning skills to be successful, whether it’s in the business world or post-secondary education,” she said.

Learning curve Every school day, about 20,000 students grab their book-filled backpacks and head to one of the HSE schools. Starting in 2014 and at a four grade levels, minimum, at a time, an iPad also will be in that backpack. Wht the program will look like for early grades is still being researched. To test the program, a pilot team was assembled, bringing in teachers that applied and showed experience with inquiry learning and implementing technology. Niedermeyer said the district was looking for teachers that already used innovative classroom activities that translated to realworld application “We wanted projects that involved students thinking and having to do some research, but also doing some high-level analysis, critical thinking, creative thinking and problem solving because 10 | March 26, 2013

those are all the 21st century learning skills,” she said. “And so we wanted to see how they were already using that in their classrooms.” Findings from the pilot program were presented to the school board in late February. According to the Pilot Evaluation Report, a slight gain in academic achievement was seen in pilot classroom students. Kelly Moore, an eighthgrade math and algebra teacher, reported that 89 out of her 151 students had increased grades after the pilot began. Of the 151 students, 49 stayed at the same grade level and 17 had a “slight” down-turn. Moore stated in an email that grade increases ranged from a 3-percent bump to a 32-percent increase. “Most students have increased by a letter grade (approximately 10 percent raise in grade),” she said. Niedermeyer said it typically takes three to five years of study to gauge whether a new program or procedure is fully effective in that realm, but there is data to support an increase in student engagement. The evaluation report details, for example, an increase of book holds at Sand Creek Intermediate after the introduction of an iPad application called Destiny, as well as sixth-grade students using microscopes and the Internet to figure out what was turning their shoes orange after being out on the playground. It turns out a rust fungus was to blame for what was called “The Orange Shoe Mystery” by students, according to the report. Looking beyond student engagement, development in 21st century skills is the final component. Among the list of activities the report covers in this sector is a project that shows the steps of mitosis, a type of cellular division, by making a flipbook movie. Niedermeyer said students all learn differently and no teaching method will be eliminated overnight. “Kids, they’re going to make this transition, too,” she said. “It can be challenging for them as well, so we have to ease into this, I believe.”

Vetting the program Engaging in new teaching tactics and putting a sophisticated device into the hands of thousands of students has its share of challenges. Some of those challenges are caused by the nature of the pilot, as students don’t get to take iPads from class to class – unlike full implementation. According to Niedermeyer, HSE Schools already has put procedures in place to deal with inappropriate usage. A filtering system is in place to catch any inappropriate use by category, with another focus on how to teach students to alert adults if they accidentally navigate into inappropriate content. In addition, teaching students to discern credible and accurate information amongst opinion and other content is part of the plan. Niedermeyer said HSE cannot control every aspect of the initiative because it hampers the learning process for students. “It’s not until the novelty wears off that they can start getting into the meaningful applications for instructional purposes, so I think the biggest challenge for teachers on the pilot team is setting parameters for students to know when they can do what and letting go of some of it because it’s part of the learning process,” Current in Fishers

HSE21 Funding Mike Reuter, chief financial officer of the HSE School District, said there is not an overall cost available for funding HSE21 yet. He said issues such as how many grade levels the program will be rolled out to, as well as how many families already own iPads are factors for determining the cost of the program. The district will be looking at rental fees for the iPads while trying to decrease book rental fees so there isn’t a large increase in the charge, and Reuter said the administration did not want to charge for a device with the same specifications if a family owns one. He said if the rental fee is high, some may consider purchasing their own to keep after the rental period. The only cost HSE Schools and its board have committed to are those associated with the teacher phase of the program.

VIEWS Opinion

Lockdowns – the new normal

Mass transit: ‘No’ to a tax increase

It is our position that officials at Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis did the right thing by putting the campus and surrounding areas on lockdown and high alert after reports of a person with a gun was seen on campus. For more than four hours, the entire University, surrounding hospitals, schools and businesses remained locked down while five police departments searched the area looking for a gunman.

Though against school policy, possession of a firearm on a college campus is not illegal in the state of Indiana – so why the panic? With the onslaught of gun violence and mass shootings, it’s obvious that most Americans don’t feel safe. Perhaps the question has changed from, “How could this happen to me?” to “When will it happen to me?” in the minds of many. And if in fact, lockdowns are the new normal, there needs to be a greater emphasis placed on education of the process along with semantics clarification such as “lockdown” vs. “high alert” in potentially dangerous situations to ensure the maximum safety of all. Yes, it is an inconvenience, however, it’s better to be safe and keep the hope that all this preparedness will provide piece of mind and ultimately, save lives.

Walkie talkie

Commentary by Terry Anker

Modern communication has come more and more to dictate continual availability. People carry their phones (and personal conversations) into some of the most improbable (and impolite) settings. On airplanes, in church and at the adjacent urinal, we have been unwilling witness to folks whose need for constant contact exceeds understanding. Unless they have the codes to our country’s nuclear arsenal and the North Koreans are attacking, what justifies the non-stop confab? When I first owned a cell-phone that wasn’t hard-wired to the floor of my car, I made the mistake of carrying the new gadget into a meeting with some much older colleagues. Certain that they’d be dazzled by my technological knowledge and surely justifiable superiority, I was disappointed by their disapproval. Rightly, they argued that attention to the person at hand is almost always more important than attending to a contact from another. Sure, we keep the phone handy when our kids

are out of the house and plan for those important and expected return calls. But, the world has yet to cease revolving because a message was answered an hour after it was received. A client, obsessive potential mate, or telemarketer who cannot wait until we finish our meeting is probably not worth the concern. Admittedly, I routinely lack the self-control to achieve my own goal as outlined above. The ringing phone, it seems like the crying baby, demands to be attended. For me, deactivating the ringer and hiding the device from view helps with lacking willpower. Interestingly even as I work to show respect for the one I’m with, the person calling often seems offended by the lack of immediate gratification. To whom do we owe our attention? And, do we have a right to demand that others be universally on call for us? Terry Anker is an associate editor of Current Publishing, LLC. You may e-mail him at terry@ currentincarmel.com.

While it’s true that residents of Hamilton and Boone counties could benefit by the passage of a bill calling for a referendum on mass-transit funding, this nonsense needs to be stopped in its tracks right here and now. The fact of the matter is, the Senate Tax and Fiscal Policy Committee has in front of it a bill calling for that very referendum in Hamilton and Marion counties, and here’s what it ultimately will mean if the referendum reaches the ballot and is passed: more taxes. Sadly, the bill already has passed the state House of Representatives. We’re with Gov. Mike Pence on this one. His plan has been, and continues to be, lower taxes for all of us – which is exactly as it should be. This effort clearly runs counter to his plan (and our hopes). We offer a hearty high-five to Sen. Luke Kenley (R-District 20), who dropped his co-sponsorship of the bill last week. We get that mass transit could become an economic-development engine, and that’s great … as long as it’s not on the taxpayers’ backs. Interesting, isn’t it, that when someone offers an idea that the first suggestion for funding it is “raise taxes”? Interesting, aggravating and unnecessary. No new taxes! Let’s see what can be done with what we have, and if we don’t have enough, well, we simply can’t afford it. This continual practice of reaching well beyond current financial means has to cease. Isn’t it more than enough now that the Feds are deeper into our wallets? When is enough actually going to be enough? We have a better way to improve transit, or the process by which one gets from here to there; it’s called repairing roads. Our money is sitting in the budgetsurplus drawer. Spend it to fix the sinkholes we avoid on a daily basis. Or, better yet, return it to taxpayers.

VIEWS Humor

Seriously, consider the children! Commentary by Danielle Wilson I know it’s March Madness, but when did teaching kids to be bullies become acceptable in our world? I am so fed up with coaches who act like complete jerks I just want to scream. Instead, I shall vent my frustrations to you, my adoring public, some of whom are probably the aforementioned jerks. So be it. It’s time you were called out. My daughter plays basketball for an in-house church league. Only the most blatant shooting fouls are called, traveling is still OK, and even a basket for the other team is celebrated. Basically, everyone’s there to have fun and eat post-game cookie cake. But a recent game was different. For starters, the other team was a bit scary; they were tall and extremely aggressive, frazzling our girls from the get-go. But that’s good for them; playing physical is part of the game. Then two things happened in quick succession that turned this from an intense competition to a disgusting display of unsportsmanship and coaching. First, the other team called a switch mid-play that pit their best player against our worst even though coaches “assign” same-level players to each other to keep the game fair. The girl immediately stole the ball and scored an easy layup. Our coach called a time-out to discuss this with the other coach, who denied any accusations of rule-bending, claiming “she was just picking up the ball.” Whatever. If you need to cheat to win an 8-year-old level basket-

ball game, you have bigger issues. Minutes later, a different player on the opposing team, one who’d been warned repeatedly about holding and reaching in, quite literally threw one of our girls to the ground. When the teenage referee called the foul, madness ensued. From my end of the court, I couldn’t hear anything, but I did see this: Our player crying, the fouler screaming at the ref, our coach walking over to settle everyone, and then their coach coming off the bench to also yell at the referee. We were just one swing short of a complete melee. When the dust cleared, no one apologized to our player, the other team’s parents didn’t clap when she hobbled off the court, and after they won, their coaches didn’t shake hands with our players or coaches. This is Third. Grade. Girls. It’s not the NCAA tourney, for God’s sake. And even if it were, sportsmanship still should prevail. All this coach did was to encourage an atmosphere of disrespect and bullying. You should be ashamed of yourself, sir, as should your team parents who allow this behavior to continue. March Madness should be a celebration of basketball, not a total disregard for the sport. Peace out.

New hospital ready to open news@currentinwestfield.com St.Vincent Fishers Hospital, a 110,000-square-foot inpatient expansion to St.Vincent Medical Center Northeast, is finished and will be open to patients on April 8. The 50-bed inpatient expansion was designed by BSA LifeStructures with a focus on improving the patient care experience. The expansion includes 30 med-surg rooms, 10 observation beds and 10 labor-delivery-recovery-postpartum rooms. The design incorporates elements designed to reduce stress, expedite the healing process, reduce patient’s length of stay and improve staff morale and productivity. “St.Vincent Health and BSA LifeStructures emphasized the creation of a facility that compliments the holistic patient care approach of St.Vincent,” said Carl Johnson, BSA LifeStructures lead architect on the project. “St.Vincent Fishers Hospital strikes a balance between healing, comfort, functionality and symbolism. The individual spaces are warm and inviting, yet taken as a whole, the design of the facility provides a reassuring sense of quality and efficiency.” St.Vincent Fishers Hospital is on target to be the first hospital in Indiana to achieve the new LEED for Healthcare certification. This new rating system recognizes sustainable measures that encourage environmental stewardship in healthcare design while reducing operational

costs and increasing energy performance. “It’s a state-of-the-art facility that differs from other hospitals in one important way, it is built based on the community’s feedback. Over the past several years, we surveyed hundreds of area residents, and their answers form the foundation of the new hospital,” said Gary Fammartino, administrator of St.Vincent Fishers. Highlights of the new facility include: • Increased energy savings – The expansion achieves a 14-percent improvement in energy savings compared to industry standards. • Decreased noise levels – Patient and staff exposure to disruptive noise levels is reduced through the use of acoustically designed exterior glass panels. • Improved stormwater quality – Stormwater quality treatment units remove 80 percent of the total suspended solids from runoff. • Reduced energy use – Transom windows provide an abundance of natural light that compliments occupancy sensors for efficient lighting control.

DOUGH Business

Keeping teen coverage affordable Commentary by Jamie Ianigro Question from Michael M. from West Clay: My son will be getting his license this spring. How do I add him to my policy, and what can I do to make sure I don’t have to get a second job to afford it? Response from Jamie Ianigro: Adding a teen to your insurance policy is not the thing to do if you’re looking to keep your insurance costs down. But there are a couple of things you can do to make sure you are getting the best price. First, make sure your teen keeps his grades up. A good majority of carriers offer discounts for teens that maintain a “B” average or higher. Next, make sure your teen completes a driver’s ed class. Lastly, make sure you pay attention to our claim prevention ideas and follow all the current laws and regulations. Adding a new driver to your policy is as easy as giving your independent agent a phone call or an email. We will need the new driver’s license number, name and the vehicle that they will be driving. If you’re adding a new vehicle, we will also need the vehicle identification number for the new auto. The type of vehicle your teen drives is a major driver of the cost of coverage. The car you want them to drive (a four-door sedan) is going to cost a lot less to insure than the car they want to drive (a coupe, convertible or sports car).

Modifying your coverage limits is a subject you should run by your independent agent. I will say that the state minimum limits are inadequate and should only be used if financially necessary. The leading cause of death for U.S. teens is motor vehicle crashes. Teens are at risk because they are more likely to drive aggressively, to not wear seatbelts and to underestimate the dangers associated with hazardous driving situations. When we talk about claim prevention, we’re talking about minimizing the risk of those three things. The most straight-forward approach to prevention is to just put it all down on paper and create a Teen-Parent Driving Contract. The contract will spell out your expectations on anything you feel like addressing along with the punishment for breaking the contract. We recommend addressing some or all of these issues: • Make sure every person in the vehicle is wearing a seatbelt. • Never use a cell phone while driving. • Limit the number of passengers in the vehicle. • Make sure you are familiar with our current Graduated Drivers License laws (current laws & regs can be viewed at www.iihs.org)

LIFESTYLE Grammar Guy

That, who or whom? Commentary by Jordan Fischer This week we’ll be talking about pronoun confusion; specifically between “that,” “who” and “whom.” Here’s a sample sentence to start us off: “The pirate that sunk my ship sailed off with my booty.” See the problem? While “that,” “who” and “whom” are all pronouns, they are used in very different situations. “That” should be used as a replacement for nouns which are things: buildings, food, machinery, animals, furniture, etc. “Who” and “whom” are pronouns which refer to people. Let’s fix the sentence above. Since we know that pirates are not things, but people – albeit not nice people – we’ll be using either “who” or “whom.” To decide which of those pronouns we need, we must figure out whether our pirate is the subject or the object of the sentence. “Who” is a subject pronoun, meaning it replaces a noun which is performing the action in a sentence. “Whom” is an object pronoun, meaning it is acted upon in a sentence. Before you let all that trip you up, just remember this simple question:

“Who is doing what to whom?” Pirates, being categorically dynamic individuals, are usually the ones doing something. This is the case with our pirate as well. So, to fix the incorrect “that” in the sentence above, we’ll replace it with “who:” “The pirate who sunk my ship sailed off with my booty.” If you decide to take action, though, and go after the pirate, we’ll see that an object pronoun comes into play: “There’s the pirate whom I’m looking for!” We can make the sentence a little stilted to show the need for an object pronoun more obviously: “There’s the pirate for whom I am looking!” Once you remember that “that” isn’t a replacement for people, and “who” always does something to “whom,” you should have no trouble with this pronoun issue. Be sure to keep an eye out for pirates, though (and don’t let anyone touch your booty).

Once you remember that “that” isn’t a replacement for people, and “who” always does something to “whom,” you should have no trouble with this pronoun issue.

INSIDE & OUT Indoors

Creating a home gym is easy Commentary by David Decker Finding the motivation to exercise is definitely easier if your workout equipment is only steps away. That’s the allure of the home gym, a specialized room in the house dedicated to helping you stay in shape. Many homeowners are converting unused space into customized gyms, which is not as difficult as you might think. The first step in creating a home gym is ensuring that you have enough space for one. Make sure you measure the entire space and any exercise machines you are thinking about buying. A crowded gym space is difficult (and somewhat unsafe) to use. And don’t forget to measure the height of the room as well. Pay special attention to your ceiling height – low ceilings could interfere with your gym equipment or while performing other activities like jumping rope. Next, check the ventilation. A poorly ventilated home gym will get hot and muggy, which can make exercise uncomfortable. The flooring you select for your gym is also very important. We agree with the fitness experts and recommend rubber flooring because it provides stability, support and reduces the chance of injuries. Just make sure whatever type of flooring you choose allows you to exercise comfortably. If your home gym features heavy exercise machines, be sure to place mats or some kind of support underneath them to keep the

floor from getting damaged. With all the logistics out of the way, we can discuss the fun, creative aspects of planning a home gym. Mount a television or a sound system on the wall to make workouts more fun. Install bright lighting to help you get motivated during workouts. If you don’t have much natural light to work with, you may want to install halogen, LED or sconce lighting. You can hang mirrors on the walls to both brighten the space and help you exercise at the same time. Gyms are inherently full of equipment, so you probably want to designate a place for everything to be stored. I think tall cabinets that resemble lockers could add a sporty, yet functional touch to the room. Cabinetry with countertops may be beneficial if you want to install a sink or have space for electronic equipment.

They are based in Carmel (575-9540, www.theaffordablecompanies.com). E-mail home improvement questions to david.decker@theaffordablecompanies.com.
