Monkton Central McKnight names new principal By  ZACH  DESPART MONKTON  â&#x20AC;&#x201D;  There  will  be  an  XQIDPLOLDU IDFH LQ WKH SULQFLSDOÂśV RIÂż FH when  students  return  to  Monkton  Central  School  at  the  end  of  August.

Betsy  Knox,  a  longtime  educator  who  lives  in  Hinesburg,  has  taken  the  helm  as  the  interim  principal  of  the  school  â&#x20AC;&#x201D;  and  she  says  she  couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  be  happier  to  be  there. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m  excited  about  what  this  year  will  bring,â&#x20AC;?  Knox  told  the  Independent  late  last  week.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;The  people  I  have  met  so  far  have  been  warm  and  welcoming.â&#x20AC;?

Knox,  52,  completed  her  undergrad-­ uate  studies  at  the  State  University  of  New  York  at  Geneseo,  and  earned  a  masterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  degree  at  SUNY  New  Paltz.  She  began  her  teaching  career  not  too  far  from  there,  at  an  elementary  school  in  Pine  Plains,  N.Y. Knox  said  she  knew  she  wanted  to  be  a  teacher  from  a  very  young  age.

I  wanted  to  be  a  teacher  since  I  was  in  third  grade,â&#x20AC;?  she  said.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;In  sixth  grade  I  had  the  opportunity  to  go  down  to  the  kindergarten  classrooms  and  help  out,  and  I  loved  that.â&#x20AC;?

Through  high  school,  Knox  said  her  desire  to  become  an  educator  never  wavered.  She  had  the  opportunity  to  help  out  in  a  third-­grade  classroom. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It  was  ingrained  in  me  â&#x20AC;&#x201D;  I  always  knew  I  wanted  to  be  a  teacher,â&#x20AC;?  Knox  said.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;When  I  went  to  college,  I  already  had  quite  a  bit  of  classroom  experience.â&#x20AC;?

After  completing  her  masterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  GHJUHH .QR[ ODQGHG KHU Âż UVW WHDFK ing  position  at  Seymour  Smith  Elementary  School  in  Pine  Plains,  N.Y.,  in  the  Hudson  Valley. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It  was  a  very  rural  community,  very  much  like  Monkton,  where  the  school  is  really  the  vibrant  part  of  the  town,â&#x20AC;?  Knox  said.

Knox  taught  second  and  fourth  grade  at  Seymour  Smith  during  four  \HDUV WKHUH 6KH WKHQ VHUYHG Âż YH \HDUV as  a  reading  teacher  at  an  elementary  school  in  Poughkeepsie,  N.Y.,  before  landing  a  job  as  a  lecturer  in  the  Elementary  Education  Department  of  the  University  of  Vermont. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I  supervised  UVM  juniors  and  seniors  as  they  worked  in  local  schools,â&#x20AC;?  Knox  said.

She  said  being  a  part-­time  lecturer  ZDV D JRRG Âż W IRU KHU DV VKH KDG D Ă&#x20AC; H[LEOH VFKHGXOH DQG FRXOG WDNH WLPH to  care  for  her  two  young  sons.  Now,  her  eldest  son  is  a  student  at  UVM,  while  her  younger  son  is  a  senior  at  Champlain  Valley  Union  High  School.

From  2004  until  this  year,  Knox  served  as  the  literacy  coordinator  at  Hinesburg  Community  School.

Knox  said  that  she  enjoys  working  with  elementary  students  because  they  are  vivacious  and  incessantly  curious. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I  think  the  younger  kids  are  just  so  full  of  love  for  learning,  which  is  exciting,â&#x20AC;?  Knox  said.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;But  they  are  also  very  busy,  so  you  need  a  lot  of  energy  and  need  to  be  up  all  the  time.â&#x20AC;?

Knox  said  that  when  she  heard  about  the  vacancy  in  Monkton,  she  jumped  at  the  opportunity.  She  said  it  was  perfect  timing,  as  she  had  just Â

BETSY  KNOX FRPSOHWHG KHU FHUWLÂż FDWH RI DGYDQFHG study  in  school  leadership  at  St.  Michaelâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  College  last  year. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I  had  pursued  my  leadership  degree,  received  my  license  from  the  state,  and  I  really  felt  like  I  was  ready  to  move  on,  and  ready  for  that  next  step  in  my  career,â&#x20AC;?  she  said.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;The  fact  that  Monkton  was  available,  the  location  is  certainly  ideal,  but  itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  that  sense  of  community.â&#x20AC;?

She  said  she  was  attracted  to  Monkton  because  the  school  climate  reminded  her  of  Hinesburg. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Hinesburg  has  a  strong  sense  of  community  as  well,  as  the  school  is  a  really  important  piece  that  brings  the  town  together,â&#x20AC;?  Knox  said.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;I  see  thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  very  similar  at  Monkton,  and  Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m  excited  for  the  many  opportuni-­ ties  to  bring  the  community  into  the  school.â&#x20AC;?

Knox  said  her  primary  goal  is  to  watch,  learn  and  support  the  work  that  is  already  going  on  in  the  build-­ ing,  and  to  support  the  professional  growth  of  faculty  and  staff.

She  placed  a  strong  emphasis  on  academics,  but  this  isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  to  say  that  itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  all  about  the  reading,  writing  and  â&#x20AC;&#x2122;rithmetic. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The  academics  are  very  important,  but  so  are  the  social  and  emotional  parts  of  learning,â&#x20AC;?  Knox  said.

This  includes  problem  solving,  self-­expression  and  resolving  peer  FRQĂ&#x20AC; LFWV ZLWKRXW DGXOW LQWHUYHQWLRQ It  appears  that  little  fazes  Knox  ² ZKHQ D Âż HOG PRXVH UDQ DFURVV WKH Ă&#x20AC; RRU RI KHU RIÂż FH GXULQJ RXU interview,  she  did  not  bat  an  eye.  Undoubtedly,  this  fearlessness  will  aid  her  as  a  school  administrator.

In  her  free  time,  Knox  said  she  enjoys  a  litany  of  outdoor  activities,  including  cross-­country  skiing  and  hiking.  She  said  she  rises  most  morn-­ ings  at  5:30  a.m.  to  go  swimming  before  work.

The  vacancy  was  created  when  full-­time  principal  Susan  Stewart  asked  the  school  board  for  one  year  of  unpaid  leave  in  May.  Stewart  told  the  Independent  in  June  that  she  has  taken  a  one-­year  classroom  teaching  posi-­ tion,  and  plans  to  return  to  Monkton  Central  for  the  2015-­16  school  year.

Editorial

Parents  to  students:  Want  to  make  an  extra  $500,000?

In  Vermont,  itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  well  known  that  our  high  school  graduation  rate  is  one  of  the  highest  in  the  country,  while  we  rank  toward  the  bottom  among  states  in  sending  graduating  seniors  to  higher  education.  Roughly  40  percent  of  high  school  graduates  in  Vermont  do  not  go  on  to  post-­secondary  education.  Part  of  the  reason  is  money:  A  college-­education  is  expensive  and  Ver-­ mont  ranks  among  the  least  generous  of  states  to  subsidize  those  expenses  for  in-­state  students.

Part  of  the  reason  is  that  a  college  education  via  classroom  study  is  just  QRW D JRRG ÂżW IRU PDQ\ VWXGHQWV VR RWKHU DOWHUQDWLYHV IRU WUDLQLQJ SRVW KLJK school  need  to  be  found.  And  part  of  the  reason  is  lack  of  preparation:  Studies  have  show  that  students  whose  parents  did  not  go  on  to  higher  education  are  less  likely  to  start  thinking  about  what  it  takes  to  get  into  college  soon  enough.  School  RIÂżFLDOV VD\ LWÂśV QRW WRR HDUO\ IRU SDUHQWV WR VWDUW WKDW FRQYHUVDWLRQ ZLWK WKHLU children  in  middle  school  â&#x20AC;&#x201D;  thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  ages  13-­14.

Think  about  that,  and  raise  your  hand  if  you  started  talking  to  your  chil-­ dren  about  post  high  school  education  just  after  they  had  graduated  from  elementary  school.

Seems  way  too  young,  right?  Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  not.  The  idea  is  to  plant  the  seed  that  learning  is  a  life-­long  endeavor  and  that  graduating  from  high  school  is  just  WKH ÂżUVW VWHS LQ WKDW SURFHVV <RX GRQÂśW KDYH WR FRQIURQW \RXU FKLOG ZLWK KLJK EDUV WR KXUGOH ÂżYH \HDUV KHQFH EXW HQFRXUDJLQJ WKHP WR WKLQN DERXW ZKDW they  like  to  do,  what  theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re  good  at  is  a  start.  Later,  in  high  school,  you  might  talk  about  the  cost  of  living,  and  what  it  takes  to  live  on  their  own.

Sure,  these  can  be  hard  conversations.  Parents  are  shy  to  talk  about  their  own  circumstances  and  children  are  reluctant  to  hear  it.

So  hereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  the  punch  line:  â&#x20AC;&#x153;Hey,  kid,  did  you  know  if  you  go  on  to  college  youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll  make  $500,000  more  in  your  lifetime  than  if  you  donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t?  And  prob-­ ably  more. Âł<HS ´ \RX FRQWLQXH ZLWKRXW PLVVLQJ D EHDW ÂłVD\V LQ D UHFHQW VWXG\ WKDW those  students  who  successfully  get  a  degree  in  higher  education  will  make  36  percent  more  in  their  annual  income  versus  those  with  high  school  de-­ JUHHV 7KDWÂśV WKH GLIIHUHQFH EHWZHHQ HDUQLQJ YV SHU \HDU or  $60,000  vs.  $39,000.  Just  think  what  you  could  do  with  an  extra  $21,000  every  year! â&#x20AC;&#x153;That  makes  graduating  from  high  school  and  going  on  to  higher  educa-­ WLRQ ZRUWK SXUVXLQJ GRQÂśW \RX WKLQN"´ Then  you  might  wander  into  a  conversation  about  how  much  it  cost  to  live  these  days,  just  to  dispel  the  notion  that  $25,000  (or  roughly  $12  an  KRXU LV HQRXJK WR OLYH RQ <RX PLJKW PHQWLRQ D UHFHQW VWXG\ WKDW HVWLPDWHG a  typical  family  of  four  needs  an  annual  household  income  of  $130,357  to  live  the  American  Dream  â&#x20AC;&#x201D;  you  know,  a  house,  two  cars,  two  kids  who  go  to  college,  a  decent  job,  summer  vacationâ&#x20AC;Ś  that  sort  of  thing.

And  even  if  youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re  frugal,  $75,000  per  household  is  the  bare  minimum  to  live  that  dream  and  $100,000  is  closer  to  reality.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;So,  junior,  you  might  want  to  think  about  how  youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re  going  earn  at  least  half  of  that  $100,000  that  you  and  a  partner  will  need  to  live  a  reasonably  FRPIRUWDEOH OLIH ´ In  most  families  with  college-­bound  students,  these  conversations  hap-­ pen  by  osmosis.  Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  expected  that  college  is  in  their  future  and  their  efforts  are  geared  in  that  direction  from  an  early  age.  But  thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  not  the  case  in  all  households,  so  the  earlier  this  conversation  can  sink  in,  the  better  off  the  student  will  be.

Whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  also  apparent,  today,  is  that  this  countryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  economy  is  not  generat-­ ing  laborer  positions  that  earn  a  middle  class  income,  without  some  form  of  higher  education  or  training.  Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  not  to  say  there  arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  reasonably  good  choices  short  of  a  four-­year  Ivy  League  college  degree:  the  military  offers  a  career  and  excellent  train-­ LQJ LQ WUDGHV DGXOW HGXFDWLRQ SURJUDPV DQG WUDGH VFKRROV FDQ EH YLDEOH RS-­ tions,  as  is  attending  two-­year  or  four-­year  programs  at  Vermont  Technical  &ROOHJH ZKLFK IRFXVHV RQ KDQGV RQ WUDLQLQJ LQ D VSHFLÂżF FDUHHUV ZLWK D MRE SODFHPHQW UDWH RI SHUFHQW LQ PDQ\ ÂżHOGV

What  parents  may  not  know  is  that  these  options  are  also  still  available  for  students  who  graduated  this  spring  with  prospects  that  arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  as  lucrative  as  they  might  have  imagined.  The  message  to  those  students  is:  â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  not  too  ODWH HYHQ IRU WKLV IDOO ´ Unlike  applying  to  a  four-­year  liberal  arts  college,  the  admission  rates  are  high  at  VTC,  and  at  some  CCV  campuses,  and  applications  are  easily  ac-­ complished.  Outside  aid  might  be  tight,  but  simple  math  (see  above)  proves  the  case  that  getting  some  higher-­education  training  is  the  best  investment  any  student  will  ever  make.  The  bottom  line  is  the  easiest  part  of  this  conversation  between  parent  and  student:  Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  never  too  late  to  pursue  further  education  in  todayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  econ-­ omy,  and  itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  rarely  too  early  to  be  thinking  about  it.

CLARIFICATION:  A  letter  to  the  editor  from  Fred  Barnes  of  Middlebury  in  this  past  Thursdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  edition  incorrectly  used  the  term  â&#x20AC;&#x153;middle  classâ&#x20AC;?  when  the  writer  meant  to  say  â&#x20AC;&#x153;ruling  class.â&#x20AC;?  The  third  paragraph  should  have  read:  ³:H KDG WR Âż JKW DQG VRPHWLPHV GLH to  establish  unions,  which  helped Â

create  the  middle  class.  But  it  certainly  was  never  the  greatest  in  the  world.  Americans  should  reject  this  kind  of  propaganda  because  it  says  to  the  ruling  class,  you  have  our  support  for  any  policy  you  carry  out.  We  do  have  a  Constitution  admired  by  the  entire  world,  but  we  are  in  danger  of  losing  it.â&#x20AC;?

As  he  said,  the  state  will  need  to  visit  each  farm  and  then  work  with  WKH IDUP WR ¿ QG WKH PRVW DSSURSUL ate  response.

This  isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  beyond  our  ability.  Maps  exist  that  identify  each  farm  and  its  â&#x20AC;&#x153;contribution  levelsâ&#x20AC;?  to  the  lakeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  circumstance.  Resources  should  be  devoted  in  direct  propor-­ tion  to  the  problem  that  exists.  We  should  work  our  way  backward  until  the  last  dollars  are  used  for  those  who  contribute  the  least.  If  the  objective  is  to  reduce  the  amount  of  phosphorus  being  dumped  into  the  lake,  then  it  only  makes  sense  to  ¿ UVW WDUJHW WKRVH ZKR FRQWULEXWH WKH most.

Hereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  how  not  to  do  it:  Send  out  letters  to  each  farmer  asking  each  to  do  the  same  thing.  No  follow-­up.  No  individual  attention.  No  distinction  between  farms  or  circumstances.

The  better  approach?  All  of  us  ¿ QDOO\ VD\LQJ WKDW FOHDQ ZDWHU carries  with  it  the  same  public  responsibility  as  clean  energy  or  better  education,  or  improved  health.

We  canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  place  the  yoke  of  this  responsibility  on  our  farmers  and  expect  success.  It  wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  happen.  Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  a  pull  that  demands  all  our  participation.

If  we  are  going  to  begin  with  our  farmers,  then  letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  make  sure  it  works,  and  that  means  helping  them.  All  of  us.

‘One Room Schoolhouse’ exhibit takes visitors back in time ORWELL — Another Vermont History Expo is behind us. The Orwell Historical Society Museum’s One Room Schoolhouse exhibit (a smaller version of a permanent display) may have only taken a few weeks to prepare for, and a solid week to design and build, but if the comments in our guest book are any indication the time and effort paid off in dividends.

Although attendance was noticeably lower in number than in past years’ events, the response to our efforts was no less appreciative. Of course, the inevitable question came up: “So, what do you have planned for your NEXT display?”

As the modular construction of the booth shell was designed to have multiple facelifts and was built for easy transport and setup, and it will surely reappear in the familiar 8-­by-­8-­foot footprint, but in its next presentation as a turn-­of-­the-­last-­century country kitchen — complete with an 1880’s Glenwood Royal coal/wood cook stove and appro-­ SULDWH NLWFKHQ ¿ [WXUHV DQG VWRFNHG pantry — all true to the period depicted.

I know, it sounds like a task, but the hard part has already been done: collecting the items. And the layout is easy, since we’ve already built such an exhibit in the museum. I just have the next two years to work out any bugs.

As with current visitors to our museum, observers of this exhibit will feel as if they have stepped into the past and are actually in a country kitchen, pantry and laundry. Attention to period detail has been our hallmark and is what the Orwell Museum is known for, and we’ll yet again borrow from our existing Kitchen, Pantry and Laundry exhibit’s DUWLIDFWV DQG ¿ [WXUHV WR ³GUHVV WKH VHW ´ The real highlight to this year’s Expo experience for us was a toss-­up. When an elderly visitor would be slowly making their way by and stop, the look on their face was nothing short of magi-­ cal, as long forgotten memories would begin to reassemble and take form and they were once again back in the one

old, once his name was complete, the pride glowed from his face. After all, it wasn’t just something he copied, but mastered — and what’s more, it was his mark, his name on that paper, and he knew it.

On his own, without prompting, he took over an hour and wrote and rewrote each letter of the alphabet — both caps and lowercase — over and over again, and asked if he could have more paper so he could take it home and practice.

Another young man, Garrett, 12 years old, came in with his younger sister and mother. He stood back and let his sister have her turn, and after a while their mother prodded them along to see the rest of the exhibits in the Pavilion Hall.

A few minutes later, Garrett returned and asked me if I could teach him how to write his name, saying he never learned how. He, too, spent a long time at the desk practicing his name and the alphabet over and over again.

The compliments for our display’s efforts are greatly appreciated, but the reaction from these two boys was payment enough for me and made it all worthwhile, as they left having learned a lesson in our little one room school-­ house. And, in the end, isn’t that what it’s all about?

In closing, despite our great collec-­ tion of period late 19th-­ and early 20th-­century scholastic antiquity, it is important to note that this exhibit wouldn’t have been possible had it not been for the gracious donations of paint, building supplies and lumber from Jeff Lawson of Gilmore Home Center in Castleton and Jed LaPrise of Highland Ridge Traditions in Orwell.

The Orwell Museum’s One Room Schoolhouse display — and the rest of our exhibits — are open year round on Saturdays from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. and by appointment. To arrange a visit off-­hours, call 802-­382-­0433 or email OrwellMuseum@gmail.com.
