Hamilton Southeastern Schools rank near top in nation

By Anna Skinner • anna@youarecurrent.com Hamilton Southeastern Schools ranked second in the nation for education the highest number of AP + Project Lead the Way student achievements, a new program that combines College Board and PLTW to introduce more students into STEM learning.

Hamilton Southeastern High School also ranked second in the nation for individual schools with the highest number of students awarded, right behind Adlai E Stevenson High School in Illinois. A combined 49 students from Hamilton Southeastern and Fishers high schools received thee AP + PLTW credentials on their transcripts.

HSE High School Principal Matt Kegley said there are three pathways to PLTW at HSE: engineering, biomedical science and computer science. To earn AP + PLTW recognition, a student must complete three courses in a pathway with a satisfactory grade, including one AP course, one PLTW course and a third course of either AP or PLTW. “It gives the kids a chance to learn more indepth in those particular areas and those particular fields,” Kegley said of the PLTW pathways.

“It gives them practical hands-on knowledge in those specific fields.”

Kristina Mathioudakis finishes her project.

“I think it shows colleges and employers that (students) have the ability to follow a program, that they’re committed, that they not only are academically strong, but then also develop some of those softer skills through PLTW and the hands-on application that they wouldn’t necessarily get in other classes,” added Cathy Glick,

an AP and PLTW teacher. “It shows colleges and employers that students have a certain set of skills above and beyond what a typical high school student has.”

HSE learned of its individual high school and district ranking earlier this month. For more, visit pltw.org.

Late Amy Beverland Elementary School Principal Susan Jordan has been honored by schools the National Association of Elementary School Principals.

Jordan died Jan. 26, 2016 after a bus jumped the curb at the school.

Following the events at Sandy Hook Elementary in December 2012, where 20 children and six adult staff members were killed during a school shooting, the Jordan NAESP had a sculpture designed and created in memory of Sandy Hook principal, Dawn Hochsprung, who was killed during the shooting.

Named the Tree of Life Memorial, the sculpture honors her life and service as well as the lives and service of others who have made extraordinary sacrifices as school leaders.

In March of 2016, the Presidents of the Indiana Association of Elementary School Principals attended the National Conference in Washington, D.C. While there, the Indiana Delegation recognized Jordan.

Girl sells T-shirts to beat cancer

By Anna Skinner • anna@youarecurrent.com Although Caitlin Carter never met her cousin Heather Lyn, who died of cancer before 12-year-old Caitlin was even born, she’s always felt a connection giving back with her.

Recently, the sixthgrade Hamilton Southeastern Intermediate Junior High student created a plan to raise funds to give back to the Childhood Leukemia Foundation in memory of her cousin, who died at age 10.

“I wanted to start a business about helping (kids with) cancer, because I’ve always wanted to help people with cancer,” said Caitlin, who plans to be a pediatric oncologist when she grows up. “I knew a lot of special shirts are popular, and if I started a business, I could get money to donate to (kids with) cancer. My cousin passed away from cancer, and I always wanted to help her out and have people not have to deal with what she had to deal with, so I thought money from shirts would help.”

Caitlin’s T-shirt sale ended Dec. 19. In two weeks, she sold more than 80 T-shirts and raised more than $800.

“The profits go toward childhood leukemia,” said Carolyn Carter, Caitlin’s mother. “It is something we will present to my aunt, who was the grandmother of Heather Lyn. We pre-

sented it at Christmastime and let her know what Caitlin has done and created.”

“The idea is kind of two-fold,” said Cory Carter, Caitlin’s father. “The primary focus is on Caitlin’s idea on raising funds to donate to cancer (research), and in the meantime hope to be able to teach her more about what it means to be an entrepreneur. Part of starting a business and making it sustainable is understanding how to operate it while at the same time focusing on giving back and help others in need. That’s the two-prong idea behind all this.”

On Dec. 20, Caitlin launched her own business to continue selling the T-shirts. For more, visit blueoceanapparel.com.

Roberts Drive KinderCare earns accreditation

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com Fishers Roberts Drive KinderCare Learning Center has earned a special honor.

The center, 8750 W. Roberts Dr., has been awarded accrediAccomplishment tation by the National Association for the Education of Young Children, a leading professional organization for the early childhood education industry. The center serves children from six weeks to 12 years old.

“It’s basically a stamp of approval that your program is a quality program and will meet the development needs of the children Majors from infancy to all the way through the time that they are here with us,” said Kelly Majors, the center’s director. “They come and observe the classrooms to make sure you are doing everything you’re supposed to be doing, that your activities need to be planned and that your activities meet the

state standards. So (the children) are developing at the appropriate level, and everything is challenging to them.”

The intensive accreditation process is conducted by an independent third-party organization.

“It’s a huge deal for us to receive NAEYC accreditation,” Majors said.

Majors, who took over the center nearly 10 years ago, said the school applies for the accreditation, and it’s approximately a year-long process.

Majors said centers are then notified of a two-week window that the school will be visited by the accreditation observer.

“Then you get a phone call the night before to say they’re coming the next day,” Majors said.

During the two-day visit, the observer visited different classrooms to observe how the teachers are interacting with the children and how lessons are being planned out.

The center has been accredited by the National Early Childhood Program Accreditation since 2011.

Cause or conclusion?

Commentary by Michael VandenBurg

It’s been quite a year, 2016.

March saw four people killed and a fifth wounded in Missouri by someone faith in the country illegally. In April, five former New Orleans police officers pleaded guilty to shooting six unarmed people.

In June, 49 were killed and 50 wounded by a gunman at an Orlando Night club. In July, the shooting of citizens by police and even more police by citizens. InSeptember, a Seaside Park, N.J., neighborhood was torn about by explosions; in St. Cloud, Minn., a 22-year-old man stabbed 10 people in a shopping mall, five people were killed in a Washington State mall, a 14-year-old shot two students and a teacher in Greenville, S.C., and one died days later. In November at Ohio State, a student drove his car into a group of people and injured 11. In December, 36 people died in an Oakland, Calif., nightclub fire, and two juveniles were charged in the wildfires that swept Gatlinburg, Tenn., that killed 14 and injured 175.

In this election year, the biggest news seemed to be Donald Trump being elected as president. I have heard commentators say that Trump will be the destruction of the United States. But will he? If you objectively

look at the news of the past year and the history of the past four decades, is he just the culmination of the journey of our country? It seems that at every juncture since the 60s assassinations, Watergate, and the everdeafening tide of failed leadership, demanding citizenship and failure to accept responsibility by all parties, we have seen a steep moral decline, and more and more decisions at all levels made on the basis of “what’s in it for me” as the bottom line.

God has repeatedly told us that with free will, these are our choices, but if we want to succeed as a people and not just as a nation, we need to heed God’s voice and follow his directives. Maybe as 2017 enters, this might be the time to turn to God for leadership and not to politicians, police, pastors and pundits.

Fishers focuses on development, Lawrence on infrastructure, public safety in 2017

By Anna Skinner • anna@youarecurrent.com People in the Fishers community have a lot to look forward to this new year, according to Fishers Mayor Scott Fadness. cover story The New Year will bring economic development projects, like IKEA and Braden Business Systems, and lifestyle investments such as The Yard, as well as public safety reinforcements funded by the 2017 budget.

Fadness

NORTH OF NORTH AND CORPORATE HEADQUARTERS RQAW Corporation will relocate its headquarters to the Nickel Plate District in part of a mixed-use development project proposed by the city. (Submitted photos)

Braden Business Systems is under construction at 7 Municipal Dr. The relocated corporate headquarters will bring approximately 70 jobs to the Nickel Plate District. The entire North Street redevelopment project, North of North, is approximately 35,000 square feet and four stories with an outdoor terrace. Braden will occupy 20,000 square feet, and the City of Fishers will lease out the remaining 15,000.

Another corporate headquarters coming to the city is RQAW Corporation, an engineering and architectural firm, investing $4 million to relocate its headquarters in the Nickel Plate District at the northwest corner of North Street and Lantern Road. RQAW will occupy 15,000 square feet of a three-story office building as part of a $47 million project proposed by the city. The remaining 15,000 square feet of the office building will be leased by the city.

IKEA

The much-anticipated IKEA is on track to be complete by fall of 2017.

Perhaps the most anticipated project in Fishers plans to open in the fall. IKEA expects to employ approximately 250 people in the nearly 300,000-square-foot space southeast of I-69 and 116th Street. In addition to the retail space, the store will feature a supervised children’s play area, a 325-seat Swedish restaurant and more. Construction is expected to create 500 jobs.

2017 BUDGET With Fadness saying it is public-safety heavy, the city budget will allow for four police and fire staff to be hired, the construction of a new police headquarters and a training facility for the fire department that could allow for live fire training and an update to the public safety fleet.

“I think next year is a significant investment in public safety with the new police headquarters. The community has grown pretty significantly over the last year, and it’s a wellneeded investment,” Fadness said. “I think we’ve clearly made that function of city government a priority in the 2017 budget.”

By Sadie Hunter • sadie@youarecurrent.com

MONEY The City of Lawrence is ending 2016 with a surplus of nearly $1.7 million for its capital improvement/rainy day fund.

“This is truly unencumbered money, and therefore can be called a surplus that can be used toward any unexpected emergencies,” Lawrence Mayor Steve Collier said. “We can project that this will continue to grow slowly through 2019.”

For the new year, Lawrence passed a balanced budget of $34,646,058, with a general fund of just under $21 million, and saw increases primarily for street department funding by approximately $1 million, the parks department by approximately $214,000 and public safety.

“We increased spending for public safety by nearly $2 million,” Collier said.

In February, S&P will conduct a bond rating for Lawrence. Collier said the city’s current bond rating is an A-.

ROADS & INFRASTRUCTURE Collier said the city’s receipt of a $1 million matching Community Crossroads Grant put Lawrence in a position to complete eight of 20 paving projects that began in October. The remaining 12 projects will be completed in this year.

“The city is also in excellent shape to apply for the (grant again) in 2017,” Collier said.

Also to be completed is the installation of the remaining high retroreflectivity signs throughout the city. A federally mandated program, phase one is complete and phase two will begin in the spring. By its completion, more than 10,000 road signs will have been replaced.

A six-month study has been completed to identify stormwater problem areas throughout the city. Collier said from the study, three major stormwater projects have been named at Pogue’s Run, the industrial park on Pendleton Pike and at 46th, 47th, 48th streets along Richardt Street.

PUBLIC SAFETY One large project that will be completed early this year is the city’s rollout of all police officers being equipped with body cameras.

“Our officers will actually be fully outfitted with the camera on their body,” Collier said.

“Right now they’re all being fitted. They have to be fitted just like a tailored tuxedo. So, all of the uniforms are in. We just have to make some final adjustments.

“We’re very proud to say that we’re really the only community of our size in this area that has a full-body-cam rollout. Even though we’re a relatively small city in comparison to some of the larger, urban areas (at 50,000 people), we have a lot of the same problems that urban areas have.”

The Lawrence Police Dept. will also see the addition of at least 12 vehicles.

The fire department in 2016 received a new, $1.1 million fire engine and will get a new fire ladder in February and new command vehicles throughout the year.

Playing against type Commentary by Terry Anker Actors, some say, have a type. The way they look, the way they speak and the way they take the stage all contribute to fashioning a shorthand for the audience – the birthing of a persona. We audiences seem to prefer that these characters align very tightly within our expectations. In sitcoms, we look for the whacky neighbor, like Ethel Mertz in “I Love Lucy.” In drama, we expect to find the wealthy inheritor, too eager to await dad’s death by natural causes. And in professional wrestling, we seek the loathsome cheater – always ready to take advantage of our goodguy hero who is playing yet another role.

If we’re completely honest, don’t we look for types in most situations? There is the woman at the office always planning for the staff parties. And there is the Alpha-male new-hire who is keen to make a name for himself as a hard case. So, are these folks actually one-dimensional, or are we overly willing to assume them to be?

To become a long-playing and working actor, identify a comfortable persona and fill it for a lifetime. In essence, one embraces the role of central-casting player for this “type” of character. Yet, rarely is the move made from supporting performer to a top-billed star. Usually, it is not for lack of trying. Actors often accept roles intentionally to perform against their own type.

But the audience, loving of the compliant actor, lash out at those who wish to expand the kinds of roles they might pursue.

Are they alone? Don’t we find ourselves trapped in our own carefully curated personas, often hoping to be considered different by our peers, more by our employers, and better by our families? Yet, the more we struggle to be seen differently, the more that others resist our desire to self-redefine.

Q U O T E O F T HE W EEK Our patience will achieve more than our force.

– Edmund Burke

For the fourth New Year in a row, I’m vowing to curtail my cussing. Not go cold turkey or anything, just ease humor off on the R-rated material.

I’m already anticipating problems, though. One, because I actually like swearing. And two, occasionally I just need the release that only a perfectly lobbed f-bomb can bring.

Let’s be honest. Being a parent requires you to constantly censor yourself. Children are impressionable tattletales who will gleefully rat you out to any neighbor, teacher or priest. Not my kids, mind you.

My darling angels think it’s hilarious when I call someone an a-hole. It’s other peoples’ kids you have to beware. For example, you slam your hand in the minivan door while carpooling to dance. Even though Myth Busters proved that cursing increases pain tolerance, you can’t yell “c%#*s@!*&er,” because Suzie will tell her straight-laced mommy that you have a potty mouth. And then you’re back to driving both ways, all five days. He*& no!

But my youngest is only 12, which means I still have a few more years before I can conceivably speak an unforgivable in front of her friends without the potential of being ratted on. That’s entirely too long to be limited to ineffective “darns” and boring “fudges.” Bottom line? It’s simply not possible, or even healthy, to expurgate my vocabulary.

This is how the crazies on the clock towers are formed. They repress their true feelings for decades and end up sniping passersby.

I don’t want to be a clocktower killer.

I believe it’s better to release the rage in small doses. I also think that when used appropriately and with solid comedic timing, foul language is hilarious (exhibit A: George Carlin). That’s why I love my family and coworkers. They get it. They know that swearing is simply a punch line, a vent, or a colorful way to say you’ve had a hard day.

But I recognize I probably need to take it down a notch. When you come close to using the c-word in church, it’s time to reevaluate! Here’s to a classier 2017! Peace out.

A year of laughs Commentary by Dick Wolfsie Time again to recognize people who inspired my humor columns this past year. Here’s Part I. humor THANKS to Menards for offering a publication with tips on projects you can make with an empty fivegallon bucket. “The buckets are remarkably strong, adaptable and not easily bent out of shape, easy to work with and hold up under pressure.” Wow, I wish we could have found someone like that to run for president.

NO THANKS to my new financial service’s website that asks security questions that even I don’t know the answer to, like, “What time of day was your first child born?” I don’t remember, but I know it was a beautiful day on the golf course. I also didn’t know what city my parents were married in. How would I remember that? I was only a year old.

THANKS to the security guard at the airport who witnessed my typical frantic search of my pants and coat to see if I had my cellphone or if I had left it at the check-in. “I’m not going to search you,” the agent said. “You’ve done a great job of patting yourself down.”

NO THANKS to me for not having faith my headlights will go out automatically. I have

spent about 17 hours of my life staring at my car because I didn’t trust the technology to do the job when I went inside my house or into a restaurant. In the old days, if I mentioned this to strangers who had left their lights on, they’d say, “I appreciate it. I sure didn’t want a dead battery.” Years later, they said, “No problem, this is one of those cool new cars where they go off automatically.” Lately, I get a lot of, “Relax, grandpa. When’s the last time you bought a set of wheels?”

THANKS to Mary Ellen for pointing out to me some of my most annoying habits. “In restaurants, you taste my entrée without even asking me.”

“I don’t think tasting each other’s food is such a terrible habit.”

“Even when we order the exact same thing?”

“OK, I won’t do that anymore.”

Blueprint for Improvement: Geist master bath update Commentary by Larry Greene

After solutions:

After

The goal for this master bathroom was to update the aesthetics of the room to fit the owners’ style.

1. The large tub with the bulky surround was removed and replaced with a sleek freestanding tub with dark bronze fixtures.

2. With the large tub surround removed, there was extra space to enlarge the shower. The look of the shower was updated with glass doors and bronze fixtures. The tile used on the floor was continued on of the back of the shower to give a luxurious look.

3. The floor of the shower is tiled with a small wood, like hexagon mosaic tile. The wood-like pattern gives the shower more detail against the dark floors.

4. Both vanities in the bathroom were replaced with new dark cabinets and granite countertops.

Bronze plumbing fixtures were used to maintain continuity.

5. The original tile floor was replaced with a dark brown porcelain tile that visually warms the entire room.

Before Background Info: The owners of this 1990s Geist-area home in the Admirals Point neighborhood were in need of a master bath upgrade. Like so many of these ’90s-era homes, the bathroom was still functional but was completely outdated and no longer fit the personal style of the owners.

Before problems:

Larry Greene is the owner of Case Design/ Remodeling. You may email him at lgreene@ caseindy.com. To see more before-and-after pictures of this project, visit caseindy.com/ blog.

This master bathroom was outdated but was not in need of any functionality adjustments. The efficient bathroom layout simply needed a “pull and replace” remodel.

The best part of the holiday season is having the opportunity to attend “The Nutcracker,” and my talented friends at Indiana Ballet Conservatory know how to put on a spectacular professional production with all the bells and whistles. The IBC dancers dazzled the audience with their charm and grace, and it was a treat to see IBC’s lead Sugar Plum Fairy Julia Rust (Noblesville) and featured guest artist Lasha Khozashvili (Boston Ballet) bring magic to the stage. Too much fun! For more, visit indianaballetconservatory.org.

Broadway concert show returns

11

BATHROOMS

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com Neil Berg’s “100 Years of Broadway” has been a road fixture since 2006.

However, when he brings his music long-running Broadway concert show to Carmel’s Palladium at 8 p.m. Jan. 21, it will be billed as “101 Years of Broadway.”

“Whenever we come back to a venue, I always add a year,” said Berg, who previously brought his show to the Palladium in October 2013. “It’s just our way of telling people we’ve been there before. We make sure every place we come back to (the show) is fresh.”

Berg said the show has been the No. 1 touring Broadway concert for the last decade, typically featuring five Broadway performers.

The first reason, Berg said, all his singers will perform songs from the actual shows they were in.

“We look at the history of Broadway and have them sing songs they would sing if they were stars from that era,” Berg said. “It’s not just some singer singing some Broadway show tunes.”

Berg serves as musical director, host and plays the piano during the show.

REMODELERS SINCE 1993 QUALITY PRODUCTS, EXPERT INSTALLATION GUARANTEED! Neil Berg will present “101 Years of Broadway” show Jan. 21 at the Palladium in Carmel. (Submitted photo)

“I basically take people on the journey,” Berg said. “Being a composer and producer myself and (being) friends with many of these show composers, I get to tell some anecdotes of how the show came to be or how the song was written.”

The one performer returning from the previous Palladium appearance is his wife, Rita Harvey, a soprano who starred in “The Phantom of the Opera” and in a revival of “Fiddler on the Roof.”

Danny Zolli, a rock/pop tenor, also will perform at the Palladium. He has starred in more performances of “Jesus Christ Superstar” than anyone else in history.

Back in the Day: 15 volunteers play first CSO performance Commentary by Terri Horvath In 1976, 15 musicians came together to play for their own pleasure. From these humble beginnings, the Carmel Symhistory phony Orchestra was born.

Instrumental in the formation was the first director of the group, Viktors Ziedonia, a Latvian immigrant who settled in Carmel and was a violinist with the Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra. He directed the first CSO concert in December 1976 with these musical volunteers.

Ziedonia continued as the Carmel orchestra’s leader for its first two seasons. James Edington took over the next three seasons while he continued to teach music lessons.

By 1996, the group had grown into a thriving 65-member orchestra, performing with such guest artists as jazz pianist Peter Nero and the Ramsey Lewis Jazz Quartet. Another highlight of the group’s innovations was its series of programs for children.

The orchestra has since grown to more than 85 musicians with a unique blend of paid

James Edington. (Submitted photo)

musicians and ardent volunteers. More than half of the musicians have been with the orchestra for 15 years or more.

In its early days, the orchestra primarily played in the Carmel High School auditorium.

Today, CSO performs at the Palladium Theatre.

Adding to its musical resume are performances by such internationally renowned artists as Michael Feinstein, Angela Brown, Cameron Carpenter, Chris Botti, Di Wu, Bernadette Peters, Sylvia McNair, Cheyenne Jackson, Dionne Warwick and more.

Carmel is the smallest Indiana community to have a symphony orchestra.
