Superintendent encourages joyful approach to school year

By Alison Penn Roswell Daily Record

construction of the Roswell High School Athletic complex and secured vestibules.

McIlroy said overseeing the building of Del Norte Elementary School is something she will strive to oversee. She said Nancy Lopez Elementary School and Mesa Middle School are high priorities in the ongoing process of improving RISD’s facilities.

A

fter her first week as Roswell Independent School district’s new superintendent, Dr. Ann Lynn McIlroy met with the Daily Record on July 6 to share her thoughts on education and hopes for the upcoming school year.

Saying that education is her calling, McIlroy said she has served as a teacher, counselor, and administrator in her career. Before coming to RISD, McIlroy was the superintendent at the Loving Municipal Schools where she was a principal for one year and superintendent for four years.

School year advice

As the 2018-2019 school year draws near, McIlroy sends out a message of hope to RISD students, parents, teachers and administrators. To have a successful school year, she encourages them to approach everything from a position of joy in order to love what they are doing.

She added that everyone should work hard to seek positive aspects in people.

“Everyday is a new day,” McIlroy shared as her advice for students, parents, teachers and administrators. “Don’t carry baggage with you and don’t put baggage on other people. I think part of it is to extend one another grace.”

In regard to parents and guardians, she wants them to know the district wants to collaborate with them in order to successfully support students at home and at school. For their concerns and for help, she said the district has an open door for them to be heard.

She added that the best help a parent can give is to encourage their children’s educational efforts, speak

Building confidence

Dr. Ann Lynn McIlroy positively about school and have confidence in the teachers and staff.

Now that she is present in her superintendent role, she will be familiarizing herself with the administrative staff and operations of RISD. “My personal belief is that we’re there to serve,” she said of administrators and those in the central office. “We’re there to serve the principals, the teachers, in order for them to be able to serve the students well — which is in the best interest of the community.”

Strategic plan

Developing a strategic plan for the next five, 10, and 20 years of the district is one of McIlroy’s top priorities, to examine the bigger picture and impact of the school district on Roswell. Working with the school board and the assistant superintendents, she said this plan would ensure the success of long-term projects — like infrastructure projects or new systems — and also prove to the community that that district can focus on longand short-term goals.

Saying she wants local education to be tailored to Roswell, and she wants to implement perspectives from the community in the strategic plan.

For practical purposes, she said the vision from the strategic plan will allow an assessment of the school’s role in economic development of the city. She said companies and businesses are attracted to communities where employees’ children will be offered a high-quality education.

“If we want to improve the quality of life and be a part of improving the quality of life for Roswell, we’ve got to do our part — and that is in providing a worldclass education for students,” she said.

McIlroy said she looks forward to developing partnerships with Chaves County and the city of Roswell to combine each organization’s resources to improve quality of life, by increasing community engagement and education.

There will also b continuing projects left from former Interim Superintendent Susan Sanchez and Superintendent Tom Burris, like

Another goal McIlroy shared is that she wants to build confidence in the district. She wants parents and guardians, as well as the community at large, to see that RISD is making informed decisions regarding the students. Saying she wants the school to be a galvanizing factor, she hopes the community can rally around and be “incredibly proud” of the district.

For students, she wants them to have the confidence that they are prepared for their future. McIlroy said she believes every job has value and that the district’s

role is to provide an educational foundation for college or entering the workforce.

She wants the students to know they have choices in their future and can compete on a global level.

Though her view is a positive one, McIlroy said she is aware of the challenges educators and students are facing. On a national level, McIlroy there is negative rhetoric about education leading to a crisis of recruiting and retaining teachers — along with financial struggles educators can have.

As far as New Mexico’s low ranking in education, she said this “blows her mind” because she sees students achieve and learn at the same national standards. Other challenges students are facing is increasing competition in college admissions, and the financial burden is increasing. In daily life, she said there are more stressors on school safety, pressures from instant communication, and more testing these days.

One thing that she said

teachers and students are collectively facing is higher expectations.

“Sometimes things don’t turn out like we planned — but that is not necessarily a failure,” McIlroy said. “Failure is not trying again. Pick yourself up, dust yourself off, and tomorrow is a new day and new opportunity to be successful.”

For more insight on McIlroy as a person, she wants the community to know there is no pretense to her. She said her faith and being family-oriented allows her to personalize and be fully engaged in her work.

“I live life to the fullest,” she said. “I want to be able to laugh. I want to be able to have fun. If I’m not able to laugh or have a good time doing something — then it is not worth me doing. If I can’t bring joy into what I am doing then it’s drudgery. Nobody wants to live like that.”

Roswell school district works toward modern, safe facilities

By Lisa Dunlap Roswell Daily Record

A

major new school project and efforts to bolster security features and devices are among the construction priorities for Roswell Independent School District leaders this summer and for the 201819 academic year.

“I want to make schools that students want to run to and not away from,” said Dr. Ann McIlroy, superintendent for the Roswell district, who said that today’s schools feature enhanced security, interesting architecture, open spaces and compelling visual elements.

“Aesthetically, when people go into pleasing places, it is a better place to work and learn. Historically in Roswell, they’ve seen an uptick in student performance when they go into new buildings because there is a sense of pride. … It is just a more welcoming environment.”

The most visible project of the upcoming academic year is a new building for Del Norte Elementary School, originally erected in 1959.

Construction is expected to begin in early 2019, said Mac Rogers, construction coordinator for the local school district. The cost is estimated at $22 million, with the state paying about $16 million and the district paying a little less than $6 million.

“We are finishing up the construction documents and going through all the steps to get a contractor on board,” Rogers said, who added that he expects requests for bids to be issued in October.

The school district already has held several public meetings about the proposed design of the two-story, 71,000 square-foot building, designed to accommodate 576 students. The current plans call for the new building to sit east-towest and be placed on the south side of the property, with the entrance facing Goddard High School.

The current school, which fronts North Garden Avenue, will be demolished once the new building is operational, slated for August 2020.

Because current plans for the new building would require using about 30 feet of the city-owned park to the east of the school, school district officials and city leaders are discussing how best to negotiate that use, with a City Council vote on the matter expected Aug. 9.

The New Mexico Public Schools Capital Outlay Council ranks the Del Norte project as the most critically needed school construction project in the state among those already funded.

But the Roswell district also has four other construction or renovation proj-

ects rated among the top 20 in the state in terms of critical need.

The other four are Mesa Middle School (No. 3), Mountain View Middle School (No. 8), Roswell High School (No. 9) and Washington Avenue Elementary (No. 18). Nancy Lopez Elementary School is ranked No. 39.

The estimated “deficiencies” in all district facilities, according to an RISD fiveyear master facilities plan, totals $154.6 million.

The situation reflects the history of the city, said Assistant Superintendent of Finance and Operations Chad Cole.

“The bulk of our schools were built in the 1950s,” Cole said. “That corresponds to the Walker Air Force Base and its timing. You look at 1969 to 1971, when the base departed, and the vacuum that was created.

There wasn’t a whole lot of construction thereafter for many decades. We didn’t really start looking at fullblown renovation or construction until 2004.”

Although the Roswell district has one of the highest bond ratings in the state, Cole said, it doesn’t have the bonding capacity to take on a lot of projects at the same time, given that state statute limits borrowing abilities to 6 percent of the assessed value of properties in the area. But, Cole said, by utilizing state matching funds that began to be offered around 2004 and with the support of voters, the district has completed 21 major renovation or construction projects during the past 14 years, with priority given to elementary and middle schools.

In August, the district intends to apply to the state for matching funds for two other projects. The application would seek state funding of about 72 percent of costs for major renovations of Mesa Middle School, estimated to be a $20 million project, and a new building for Nancy Lopez Elementary, estimated at at least $12 million. Area voters approved district work on both projects during a 2015 General Obligation bond election.

The district’s other building and facility projects for the current academic year include the following: • Enhancing security features at schools. District leaders say that the Roswell district is among the first district in the state to build secure vestibules at the entrance of buildings, with projects undertaken as funds allow. The entryways feature high visibility, door locks and reinforced, continuous hinges that cannot be pried open.

The new Del Norte building will have a secure vestibule and also will be built so that classrooms are in secured sections of the

The facility also will utilize surveillance cameras and have an intercom system that can be used for emergency communications.

“We firmly believe as a school district that security and feeling secure starts in the classroom, so we need for those teachers and our students to feel empowered about that,” said Cole. “They need to have confidence

about that.”

Secure entry vestibules also are being built at Goddard High School and Roswell High this summer.

Those projects are due to be finished before school starts Aug. 9.

• Improving the athletic fields and facilities at Roswell High School. The track, baseball and softball fields, and soccer field outside the school are in the process of being upgraded and improved. Goddard High

previously had improvements to its athletic facilities. That effort includes constructing a restroom and locker room facility, improving event parking, rehabilitating turf, creating a ticket booth and updating infrastructure, including wells, to support future projects.

• Replacing swamp coolers in instructional areas at Mountain View Middle School with central heat and air. Asbestos abatement is a part of that as well. While

not part of the master plan, district officials say that the project is critical to student performance, so it is also expected to be done before school starts. “If you are hot and sweaty and you’re a middle school student or a middle school teacher around other people who are hot and sweaty and smelly, that is not conducive to learning,” Cole said.

• Preparing for future General Obligation bond and 2 mill elections to continue construction and maintenance financing.

Both elections are expected to occur in 2019, with the GO bond election in November and the 2 mill election expected to occur as a special election in February.

Cole said the 2 mill property tax levy provides about $2 million a year used primarily for school maintenance.

• Continued efforts to create smart classrooms and “21st century learning environments.” For example, the district plans to demonstrate a new type of an interactive smart board for classrooms at a future school district board meeting, Cole said.

RHS graduate returns as school resource officer

By Alex Ross Roswell Daily News

T

hough he graduated from high school in 2007 and is not a teacher, Trong Nguyen for the last four years can still be found in the hallways, classrooms and cafeterias of several schools within the Roswell Independent School District.

Nguyen said he, along with Officer Laura Macias and Sargent Jerry Hart, are part of the city’s SRO (school resource officer) program, funded by the city of Roswell and the school district.

From 7 a.m. to 4 p.m on weekdays throughout the school year, Nguyen works to deter and investigate criminal activity on school campuses, as well as build rapport with and serve as a role model for students, to make schools a safer environment, he said.

When school begins Aug. 9, Nguyen, an officer with the Roswell Police Department, will begin his fifth year as an SRO. Although based out of Roswell High School, he is also the SRO for University High school, Sierra Middle School and the El Capitan, Valley View, Monterrey and Parkview Elementary Schools.

The SRO position is not uncommon within school districts. According to The National Association of School Resource Officers, which provides training to SROs, between 14,000 and 20,000 SROs are estimated to be in service throughout the nation.

Despite the changes in music and culture since his days as a student, Nguyen said teenagers have not really changed.

“I guess with the kids, they stay basically the same,” he said.

Nguyen, 28, said given his age he is still young enough that he can relate to teens, and can help humanize the badge.

Nguyen said when he became a police officer, he did not think he would be doing the kind of work that he does as an SRO, but as a someone who attended Roswell

Officer Trong Nguyen will begin his fifth year as an SRO (school resource officer) in the Roswell Independent School District. schools and graduated from Roswell High, he was drawn to the position when it opened up.

“I went to these schools and it was just awesome to go back to my high school, and I wanted to serve as a role model for these kids that grow up where I grew up,” Nguyen said.

He said that since then, the job has grown on him.

“I thought that I would be probably be doing this for like two years and then moving onto another unit, but the more I do it, the more I get more involved with trying to make sure these schools are safer,” he said.

For Nguyen, an average day can include traffic enforcement, monitoring students in school common areas, going to nearby restaurants to see if there are any truant students, and responding

Local teacher chosen to attend space camp

By Mikayla Fuller Roswell Daily Record

An organization named Honeywell, which specializes in engineering services and aerospace systems, recently chose 224 science and math teachers from 62 countries to attend a space camp at the Honeywell Educators at Space Academy (HESA).

HESA is a scholarship program that helps middle school math and science teachers impact the lives of their students. The HESA candidates complete a rigorous application process, and qualified teachers are chosen and awarded scholarships, round-trip airfare, tuition, meals and accommodations.

A local science teacher named Kathleen Arias was selected to attend the space camp. Arias has been a sixth grade science teacher at Sierra Middle School for five years. Her Science Olympiad team won ninth at state last year.

Arias said there was emphasis on basic space science at the camp, and much of the program focused on keeping teachers updated on cur-

rent space research.

Using what she learned, Arias plans to hopefully make students more interested in choosing a STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics)-related career.

STEM is a curriculum based on the idea of educating students in science, technology, engineering and mathematics, using an interdisciplinary and applied approach.

Teachers participated in 45 hours of intensive laboratory, classroom and training time over the course of the five-day program.

The goal was to showcase new ideas and concepts for teachers to incorporate into their curriculums that help inspire their students.

Focused specifically on coding, science and space exploration exercises — including real astronaut training simulations — the program helps promote life-long learning techniques.

“This was a once in a lifetime experience,” said Arias, “and there are many opportunities that can come from this.”

to or deterring incidents of violence. In the past four years, he has had to break up fights, handle cases involving drugs and theft, but also has worked on cases of runaways and children who have been victims of abuse.

He said that he has seen a drop in the number of fights and criminal acts at the schools since he started as an SRO. Nguyen said throughout his years as an SRO, he has been surprised to learn how an incident that can start out seemingly small and insignificant can, when not effectively dealt with, metastasize into something larger and more troublesome.

This year, the issue of school shootings captured the spotlight in February after a student at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida

opened fire, killing and injuring students and staff at the school.

The incident refocused attention on school shootings and the question of how safe schools are, something Nguyen also has to deal with.

School shootings are nothing new, Nguyen said.

In the 1990s and early 2000s there were school shootings at high schools across the nation, most notably the 1999 Columbine High School shooting in Littleton, Colorado. However, Nguyen said he does believe social media does play a role in the increased incidents and threats of active shooters at schools.

He said that this year, the school district had to respond to threats of school violence that were spray-painted on walls. Each threat was investi-

gated thoroughly by detectives.

Nguyen said the Roswell Police Department’s Technical Service Units would search the area where the threat was spray-painted for fingerprints and look at security camera footage to find the people who made the threats.

Nguyen said that he has also been working with the school safety liaison during summer break to perform threat assessments of school buildings to identify weaknesses in the security of the buildings.

The shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School touched off a debate about whether employees and schools should be able to arm themselves to prevent school shootings or respond to active shooter situations.

Nguyen said while he would not state his opinion about school employees arming themselves, more school districts are starting to have SROs, giving students and their parents more confidence that schools are safer.

He added that at Roswell schools, more attention is being directed towards increasing security in vestibules of schools, with the aim of making it more difficult for unauthorized people to enter a school building.

Nguyen also works to help educate students about social media in their health classes.

Though social media platforms have grown in popularity among young people, he said many of them don’t know about the dangers of crimes that can be committed through social media and texting such as the distribution of child pornography and cyber stalking.

Nguyen said he does not know how much longer he will be doing it.

“I enjoy it but I’m always interested in working different units that the PD offers,” he said.

Make sure safety is priority in school year

By Todd Wildermuth RPD Public Information Officer

Roswell students head back to class Aug. 9 The beginning of a new school year means new adventures for many children: new friends to meet, new teachers to get used to, new academic subjects to learn and master, and for some students, new school buildings to figure out. With all this facing local kids as school begins anew next week (Aug. 9), children may not be paying as much attention as they should to safely getting to and from school.

So it’s important for parents and other adults to talk to children about staying safe as they make the regular trip to school and home again. The Roswell Police Department asks parents and guardians to remind children to look both directions before crossing a street, try to cross in a crosswalk, and never head into the street from between parked vehicles or from

in front of or behind a parked vehicle – it can be difficult for a driver to have enough time to stop if a previously unseen child darts out suddenly. Also, parents should consider a “practice” walk with their children to school or the bus stop, especially for younger students and those who will be learning a new route to a new school or bus stop.

Meanwhile, drivers should heighten their awareness at intersections and approaching crosswalks. Also pay extra attention when approaching a school bus.

Watch for children running out from in front of the bus – or other parked vehicles. And remember, drivers in both directions must stop when a school bus’ red lights are flashing and/or its stop sign is activated. And, of course, slow down when you enter a school zone – those areas limit speeds to 20 mph when children might be present. Some schools have parking zones that are designated to assist the smooth flow of traffic during drop-off

and pickup times. Drivers are urged to adhere to the regulations so they can avoid being ticketed for parking violations.

Newspapers in Education supplies tools for teaching

E

very school year, the Roswell Daily Record and the Roswell Independent School District collaborate on Newspapers in Education to use the newspaper as a tool for instruction in area classrooms.

As the school year starts, so does the RDR NIE program.

The newspaper provides copies to the schools, free of charge, for use in any classroom. There is no charge to any school for using the newspapers. Currently, the program is mostly funded through the “Roswell Daily Record” and we are always looking for sponsors for the program.

Students use our newspaper as a meaningful resource for learning.

The NIE program varies according to the needs of our educational community and how it is used in the classrooms. It is a very flexible program. A middle school classroom might use the newspaper in a math class calculating percentages while an elementary classroom might use NIE newspapers for a social studies project, exploring the history of Roswell and Chaves County through one of our many

Back-to-school icebreakers

Parents and educators can sometimes underestimate children’s anxiety over the dawn of a new school year.

Many students feel nervous when wondering if their teachers will be nice or if they will make new friends. These worries may be compounded by the return to routine and the end of an enjoyable period of rest and relaxation.

In 2015, CNN polled campers at a summer day camp outside New York City. The campers were elementary school students who were asked about what they were most nervous about for the return to school. Homework, tests, competition, greater expectations, grades, and making new friends topped the list of fears.

To help students transition to the classroom with fewer worries, teachers and parents can initiate icebreakers.

Buddy up

Many schools will give out classroom assignments a few days before the first day of school. Parents can investigate who is in their child’s homeroom and initiate contact with the parents of one or more of those students. Collectively, parents can make a buddy plan for students to arrive to school together and enter the classroom as a team. Coordinate clothing colors or have students wear another unifying symbol. This may allay fears and make the first day of school more fun.

School selfie

Students can craft “school selfies” on a piece of paper using a smartphone image template. This selfie illustration will give the class key facts about each student and present an interesting, creative and enjoyable way for students to get to know one another.

Student word search

Word searches are entertaining and educational tools that can be put to use in the classroom. Parents or teachers can create word searches featuring the first names of all the students in the class.

Children often enjoy searching for their own names, and then they can help others, opening up lines of communication.

Word searches also can be customized. Therefore, if student names aren’t desired, the theme can be classroom items or school terms.

Personal introductions

Students may worry about teachers mispronouncing their names or using a full name instead of a nickname.

Rather than a traditional roll call, teachers can encourage students to introduce themselves to classmates, using their preferential name and including a brief synopsis of their interests and what makes them unique.

Barbara Beck From The Publisher articles on the topic. Our newspaper is used as an instructional tool in many subjects and grade levels around town with both public and private education.

Typically, most teachers use NIE with a focus on language arts, reading, social studies, math and science. NIE programs are used throughout grade levels in elementary, middle or high school settings.

The goal of our NIE program is to use the newspaper to help teachers with the subjects they are already teaching. It is not intended to simply teach about the newspaper, although it can be used for that also. A good NIE program helps teachers learn to develop their own activities using the newspaper to teach in any classroom.

NIE programs offer many benefits. NIE builds readership and reading skills: Building readership through the NIE program is a result of sending newspapers to the school. Several studies have shown that children and/ or adults who regularly read a newspaper demonstrate significant gains in reading skills. A study conducted by the NAA Foundation showed that students who use newspapers might score significantly higher on standardized tests than students who do not read the newspaper.

Newspaper advertisers also love it when a shopper tells them they saw their product in a newspaper advertisement. Our community appreciates those who show an interest in the education, health and safety of their children. NIE can help children in all of those areas.

There is no substitute for a newspaper. Television, radio and the internet can give the news quickly. Understanding the news usually comes, however, with the longer, more thoughtful appraisal of facts and details found only in newspapers. Younger readers quickly learn that a newspaper

is more than news. It is feature articles that tell them of interesting people and activities in the community as well.

NIE also builds community goodwill. The positive benefits for our newspaper to help improve local education. By placing our newspaper in classrooms, we are giving teachers the opportunity to use the most up-to-date textbook on the market. The closer to home a story is, the more motivation there is to read that story. A student in Roswell is more apt to find his or her name in the Roswell Daily Record than in a larger regional daily newspaper.

Our newspaper covers our students’ community, not the whole world. Community news is important to the functioning of our democracy because most citizen involvement occurs at the local level. The community newspaper is geographically closer to its reading audience and it is also easily accessible for plant tours by students because we have our own printing facility and always have, since before the turn of the century.

Not many newspapers have

their own press anymore, as they are now much harder to find.

Tours of our newspaper facilities are a popular activity for Roswell students. Many of our students also enjoy NIE newspapers because they can relate to local sports coverage or might know someone who writes for our Millennial Voices teen column or for the “Juniors and Seniors” page.

Teachers, please send in photos of your children’s school events or photos of their volunteer efforts throughout the year to be spotlighted on the “Juniors and Seniors” page. There are also writing opportunities available for teen writers. For more information, contact Misty Choy at m.editor@rdrnews.com NIE is a benefit to schools and the community. Please take the time to consider reading a newspaper and supporting NIE and students this school year.

SEXUAL HARASSMENT The District is committed to a positive and productive working and learning environment free of discrimination. Discrimination adversely affects morale and interferes with employee and student ability to work and learn. The District prohibits sexual harassment of its employees or students, whether committed by a co-worker, supervisor, subordinate, contractor, volunteer or student.

Such behavior may constitute a basis for disciplinary action up to and including discharge or expulsion. Whereas sexual harassment substantially compromises the attainment of educational excellence, the District will not tolerate such behavior between members of the same or opposite sex.

The District also prohibits retaliation against (1) Any employee or student for having made a report of alleged sexual harassment, and (2) Against any employee or student who has testified, assisted or participated in the investigation of a report. Retaliation is itself a violation of State and federal regulations prohibiting discrimination and may constitute a basis for disciplinary action up to and including discharge or expulsion. This policy applies to individuals attending any events on the property of the District, whether or not school-sponsored and to any school-sponsored events regardless of location. Any complaints of sexual harassment should be reported within 180 calendar days of occurrence.

A copy of the District’s Sexual Harassment Policy may be obtained at the school-based principal’s office. Nothing in this policy applying to Title IX and Section 504 is intended to alter the District’s Sexual Harassment policies as set forth in Policy No. 3145 (employees) and Board of Education Policy No. 5130 (students).

Inquiries regarding the Sexual Harassment policy should be directed to: FOR STUDENTS: Title IX Coordinator, Director of Activities, Roswell Independent School District, 300 N. Kentucky Avenue, Roswell, NM 88201 and/or Section 504 Coordinator, Assistant Supt. for Instruction, Roswell Independent School District, 300 N. Kentucky Avenue, Roswell, NM 88201. FOR EMPLOYEES: Assistant Superintendent for Human Resources, Roswell Independent School District, 300 N. Kentucky Avenue, Roswell, NM 88201.

PARENT ACCESS – PowerSchool The RISD has implemented PowerSchool which is the student information system for the district.

PowerSchool allows parents to monitor student performance from any web connection.

Roswell Daily Record

Art and science in the real world

By Christina Stock Roswell Daily Record

T

he years following the No Child Left Behind education law and the federal law, signed in 2002, which required annual exams in only reading and math, were disastrous for art and the sciences in schools.

Thousands of schools had to reduce class time spent on subjects other than math and reading — the only subjects schools were judged on — while school class sizes were increasing.

Narrowing the curriculum, cutting courses like social studies, science and art became standard procedure in many communities.

In a recent interview for the annual local Celebrate the Arts Day, Abie Smith — Arts Connect principal for the RISD Creative Learning Center — talked about why these cuts didn’t happen here. According to her, Max Coll, a legislator, brought forward the Fine Arts Act in 2003, to have funding in place for K5 students.

“Elaine Howe brought funding for us,” Smith said. “We have one of the most supportive districts in the state. It really makes a difference how supportive the district is for arts. I know that as a fact because I attend state meetings. We’ve been told by the state that we’re an exemplary program.

We’ve been going since that time.”

The saying goes that It takes a community to raise a child. In RISD’s case it goes beyond that.

Not only are teachers and parents involved, but each museum supports RISD hands-on by volunteering for the advisory council for the Celebrate the Arts Day and providing additional art classes for children, especially in the summer.

About 80 percent of artists that have been accepted in the yearlong Roswell Artist-in-Residence program have a background in teaching and volunteer in the local art classes, bringing unique styles and techniques from everywhere in the U.S. and overseas to

Roswell.

The music programs of RISD’s schools are involved in the community as well and the bands perform concerts throughout the year, including at Christmas.

The Roswell Symphony Orchestra offers chances for young musicians to become inspired.

Maestro John Farrer from the RSO introduces different musical instruments to more than 800 area fourth-grade students at the Young Person’s Concert. This concert is an annual tradition with music played specifically for young people with tunes they all recognize.

All of the students experience something that is meant to spark an interest in music that will enrich their lives for years to come.

Also participating in this concert is the Shadow Orchestra.

This includes high school students from southeastern New Mexico who are selected by their music teachers to play with the RSO on several selections during

State agrees to fund Dexter Elementary renovation Roswell Daily Record The Dexter Consolidated School District also has a commitment for funding for a major school project.

According to April 2018 documents from the New Mexico Public Schools Capital Outlay Council, the state has committed to providing monies for the renovation of Dexter Elementary School, located on about 26 acres on West First Street and serving about 484 pre-kindergarten to fifth-grade students.

Those documents indicate that the state and the district are in the midst of developing a memorandum of understanding about the financing and construction project.

According to a facilities master plan filed with the state in 2016 by the Dexter district, the elementary school was built in 1995, with additional work done in 1996, 1997 and 2002.

The permanent building totals about 73,000 square feet with another 7,000 square feet of portable classrooms.

About $12.4 million in needed renovations to the elementary school have been identified, according to the long-range facilities plan, including adding three new classrooms to replace four portables, structural repairs, upgrades of all restrooms, enhancement of fire alarm and intercom systems, and parking improvements.

The district anticipates state funding for about 80 percent of the costs, but indicated that additional GO bond funding from a 2020 election could be required before work can begin. In February 2016, Dexter voters approved a $3 million general obligation bond for school improvements, including the elementary school renovation.

the Young Person’s Concert. It’s a great opportunity for these young people to meet professional musicians, be part of a rehearsal and perform in a concert.

It is ideal if the arts and the other classes and teachers work together. Berrendo Middle School teacher Jeanette Main is its art teacher and organizer of the annual public art show HeART of Winter. “It is wonderful when we all coordinate our classes, and I am always looking how to support the other teachers,” Main said. “When the geography class has Egypt as the subject, I could teach the children how to create mummies.” The literature classes have already joined HeART of Winter. The students wrote art reviews of famous painters and the previous year the children wrote stories based on sketches and paintings.

Today, powers-that-be have rekindled what RISD knew all along.

Sciences and the arts go handin-hand. Without the ability to

express their creativity, children’s brains do not develop to the fullest of their capacity.

STEM returned in 2011 as a focus for education and then arts were included to create the acronym STEAM — after all, what good are sciences if you can’t imagine projects and create better programs to achieve the scientific goals?

This may all sound dry and scholarly, but if one looks into the future of today’s children — and that is what education’s purpose is: to help children find their calling in life and have a fulfilled career that will benefit the community and the country — there are very few professions that do not need artistic education. Some might surprise the reader.

Here are some career examples where creativity is necessary and knowledge gained from STEAM programs helps to get a better job: There are professions that are obvious, such as interior decorators. But, who has heard of

ROSWELL INDEPENDENT SCHOOL DISTRICT ASBESTOS REINSPECTION SURVEY - ANNUAL NOTIFICATION TO PARENTS

According to requirements of the EPA Asbestos Hazard Emergency Response Act (AHERA 1987), the Board of Education completes mandatory re-inspections on a three year cycle. In addition, surveys are conducted every six months of all buildings within the District. In the past, asbestos was widely used in building construction.

Accredited environmental inspectors visit the school your son/daughter attends to re-inspect the condition of Asbestos-Containing Building Material (ACBM) or materials assumed to contain asbestos and complete a reinspection survey. The asbestos management plan for your school is filed in the main office of the school and is accessible to parents and staff.

You may review the current plan at the school at any time.

Since AHERA was enacted, RISD has implemented an Operations and Maintenance Program to train maintenance personnel with proper handling and safe procedures for asbestos containing materials.

As EPA has suggested, it is RISD policy to remove asbestos only when a damaged condition dictates, or maintenance remodeling or demolition is involved.

In these instances, precautions are taken to ensure the safety of our staff and students.

Inspectores medioambientales autorizados visitan la escuela a la que asisten sus niños para reinspeccionar las condiciones del material que contiene o que podría contener asbesto y efectúan un estudio de reinspección. El plan vigente de control de asbesto de su escuela está archivado en la oficina de la escuela y es accesible a los padres de familia y el personal docente y administrativo.

Pueden ustedes revisar el plan en la escuela en cualquier momento.

Desde que el acuerdo AHERA fue promulgado, RISD (Escuelas Públicas de Roswell) ha puesto en efecto un Programa de Operaciones y Mantenimiento para capacitar al personal de mantenimiento en procedimientos de seguridad y manejo apropiado de materiales que contienen asbesto. Como lo ha sugerido la EPA (Agencia Protectora del Medio Ambiente), la responsabilidad de APS es eliminar el asbesto solamente cuando la naturaleza del daño lo amerite, o cuando el proceso de mantenimiento requiera remodelación o demolición; en dichos casos, se toman precauciones para resguardar la seguridad del personal docente y administrativo y de los estudiantes.

healthcare decorators? A cancer center for adults is carefully designed, even the art and coloring is chosen to influence patients in a positive way. This is especially the case for children’s hospitals. Another branch: designers of grocery store chains.

Even the glass that protects cold cuts is designed and colored to attract the customer. Music is carefully picked, depending on town and region, to make the customer comfortable and have them stroll through the aisles, not just speed through.

The Bureau of Labor Statistics at the United States Department of Labor’s website lists certain jobs that need creativity more than others. “To be creative is the most exciting thing you can do,” according to Chris Triola, owner of a textile design studio in Lansing, Michigan. “It’s as necessary to me as eating and breathing.”

Creativity and art education is defined in the workplace as the ability to produce something of value that did not exist before.

An idea needs creativity, which is developed by learning to be artistic.

Most jobs involve creativity. A retail salesperson, for example, might design a more engaging product pitch, and an auto shop mechanic finds an easier way to diagnose a malfunction.

Art is necessary to be a cook, creating a new special dish or having a seasonal menu. Grant writers and even solar photovoltaic installers need creativity.

Another example of a job requiring creativity offered by the Department of Labor focuses on art therapist Raja Aossey.

In high school, art helped Aossey cope with the loss of a family member. Now she helps others harness the healing powers of art. She designs and guides art activities to enhance the well-being of students with spe-

‘Back To School’ tax-free weekend Aug. 3-5

By Mikayla Fuller Roswell Daily Record

This year the annual New Mexico Gross Receipts Tax Holiday takes place Aug. 3-5.

Focused on back-toschool savings, this is a weekend that sees the state suspend collection of gross receipts tax on sales of qualifying items — allowing the buyer to purchase those items tax-free.

New Mexico’s “Back To School” tax-free weekend was established by the state Legislature in 2005, and occurs each August.

To help boost the economy during slower shopping months of the year (July and August) — and to help parents save money when purchasing common back-to-school supplies for their children — governments of various U.S. states have decided to temporarily suspend collection of taxes on select items.

This year 16 different states are participating in similar tax-free events, the date and items determined by each state.

cial needs. Art therapists work in different settings with different types of clients. Some, like Aossey, are in schools, where they work with students of all ages and meet with them in groups or one-on-one.

Others work in medical settings, such as community clinics and psychiatric hospitals, where they may help people who have a physical or mental illness.

Still others have their own practice, serving clients with various needs.

But no matter where they work or who their clients are, art therapists use art and psychology on the job.

Have you ever looked at a letter? There are designers for fonts that are well paid. A great example is right here in town, at the Roswell Museum and Art Center’s exhibit of “Magical & Real: Henriette Wyeth & Peter Hurd, A Retrospective.”

A company was hired for the exhibit in Doylestown, Pennsylvania, and in Roswell to create lettering for the display to put on the wall.

The base of this lettering comes from a font designer. Each major company has its own font and even a color created just for them, which has copyright protection so nobody else can use it.

Then, there is the hospital field. One of the most creative jobs, next to a

allows buyers to purchase the following items tax-free: Footwear, clothing, backpacks, maps and globes with a sales price of $100 or less per item, school supplies less than $30 per item, computers less than $1,000, computer equipment less than $500, and handheld calculators less than $200 per item.

When retailers deduct gross receipts, they have no need to recover tax costs from customers. Therefore, customers can buy these items during this period free of tax. Retailers are not required to participate in New Mexico’s sales tax holiday, and select stores may not offer tax-free supplies.

According to the state, New Mexicans save more than $3 million over the tax-free weekend. Elimination of taxes this sales tax holiday could potentially save shoppers $8 for every $100 spent.

With back-to-school/ college shopping being the second largest shopping holiday of the year for retailers, following the winter holidays, families can expect to spend a decent amount on school essentials. surgeon who does reconstructive surgery, puts body parts together again or has to remove them — is the medical aesthetician. This is not a nurse or doctor and they do not put people to sleep; do not mistake them for an anesthetist. Aestheticians are licensed skincare specialists who treat facial skin to maintain its health and its appearance. They work with patients whose skin is affected by trauma or surgery. For example, if a patient undergoes chemotherapy, the skin changes and needs special care, special soap, cosmetics and lotions.

Other examples of creative jobs are cruise ship musicians, multimedia artists for games and commercials. Jewelers definitely need art and art history to repair jewelry or create jewelry.

Dentists need the work of dental laboratory technicians who construct full or partial dentures; floor and tile layers need a creative eye, and so do construction workers.

In the end, without art and creativity in this world, we wouldn’t have all these items and services that create quality of life. It may be easily overlooked and is often underestimated in importance.
