Ilsley  Library  looks  to  expand  childrens’  space Wants  town  to  join in  on  discussions By  JOHN  FLOWERS MIDDLEBURY  —  The  Middle- bury  selectboard  on  Tuesday,  Nov.  19,  will  be  asked  to  expand  the  de- sign  for  a  new  municipal  building  at  77  Main  St.  in  order  to  accommodate  a  new  children’s  library. Members  of  the  Ilsley  Public  Li- brary  Board  of  Trustees  are  spear- heading  the  request,  which  they  said  is  driven  by  what  has  been  a  steady  increase  in  transactions  at  the  current  children’s  library  located  in  the  lower  level  of  the  Ilsley.  They  also  contend  the  current  space  is  too  small,  suffers  from  water  intrusion  and  inadequate  air  circulation,  and  has  virtually  no  natural  light. “We  have  to  give  away  older  books  to  make  way  for  new  books,â€?  Ilsley  Library  Director  Kevin  Unrath  said  on  Friday  of  the  facility’s  lack  of  shelf  space. Since  the  town  last  expanded  the  Il- sley  Library  26  years  ago,  children’s  use  of  the  Ilsley  Library  has  increased  by  50  percent,  according  to  Unrath.  Children  last  year  checked  out  40  percent  of  all  books  lent  by  the  Ilsley,  accounting  for  a  major  portion  of  the  188,000  person-Âvisits  to  the  historic  Main  Street  building.

While  the  construction  and  opera- tion  of  the  pit  would  cause  irreparable  harm  to  several  families,  Dumont  ar- gued  the  “major  cause  of  harmful  im- pactsâ€?  on  the  community  would  be  the  removal  of  the  pit  wall,  estimated  at  a  half-Âmillion  to  a  million  cubic  yards,  which  would  leave  no  barrier  between  the  pit  and  the  town. Dumont  argued  that  the  plan  to  re- move  this  wall  was  never  presented  in  any  of  Lathrop’s  applications  for  a  zoning  or  Act  250  permit,  and  by  granting  Lathrop  permission  to  re- move  the  pit  wall,  the  court  was  violat- ing  Vermonters’  right  to  due  process,  because  residents  had  no  opportunity  to  review  this  plan.  “Having  spent  countless  hours  and  tens  of  thousands  of  dollars  over  the  past  ten  years  to  reach  this  point  in  the  proceedings,  these  Vermonters  are  now  on  the  cusp  of  losing  all  their  fun- damental  due  process  under  the  14th  Amendment  and  Article  1,  chapter  10  of  the  Vermont  Constitution,â€?  Dumont  wrote.   While  the  case  is  on  appeal  Dumont  asked  the  Supreme  Court  to  issue  a  stay  of  Judge  Durkin’s  ruling. Quarrying  operations  have  existed  in  the  town  of  Bristol  for  many  years.  According  to  court  documents,  there  are  10  current  or  former  gravel  extrac- tion  sites  close  to  downtown  Bristol.  Because  of  the  geographical  makeup  of  the  bedrock,  the  gravel  in  Addison  County  is  considered  high  quality.  From  around  1970  to  1990,  the  Lath- rop  family  operated  a  gravel  pit  near  the  area  where  Lathrop  now  proposes  to  build  an  access  road  to  the  new  site.

Two parties send proposals to Community House board By  JOHN  FLOWERS MIDDLEBURY  —  Middlebury  Community  House  trustees  have  received  proposals  from  two  sepa- rate  entrepreneurs  interested  in  launching  business  ventures  with- in  the  historic  home  at  6  Main  St. The  two  letters  of  interest  came  in  response  to  an  invitation  from  the  Community  House’s  board  of  trustees  for  proposals  from  par- ties  wanting  to  either  purchase  the  stately  home  or  rent  a  portion  of  it.  The  Community  House  was  built  in  1816  and  was  given  to  the  town  in  1938  by  the  late  Jessica  Swift  and  her  brother  Philip  Bat- tell  Stewart.  The  facility  is  one  of  the  best  examples  of  post-Âco- lonial,  Federal-Âstyle  architecture  left  in  town  and  is  currently  rented  out  for  meetings  and  private  func- tions.  But  the  event  fee  revenues  are  not  covering  the  Community  House’s  operating  expenses,  thus  forcing  trustees  to  consider  other  ideas  to  keep  the  property  out  of  the  red. Community  House  trustees  on  Oct.  1  sent  out  a  request  for  pro- posals  that  could  allow  private  tenancies  in,  or  an  outright  pur- chase  of,  the  property.  The  RFP  stated  that  trustees  were  open  to  “all  scenarios,â€?  including  any  of  the  following: ‡ 7KH ERDUG PDLQWDLQV RZQHU- ship  of  the  building  and  grounds  and  leases  a  portion  of  the  build- ing  to  an  entity  or  entities  to  cover  annual  operational  costs.

Guest  editorial Common  Core:  What  is  it and  why  did  Vt.  adopt  it? By  Armano  Vilaseca Vermont,  along  with  44  other  states,  adopted  a  common  set  of  educational  standards  called  the  Common  Core  State  Standards  (CCSS),  which  will  be  used  to  articulate  what  we  expect  our  students  to  know  and  demonstrate  in  grades  pre-ÂK  through  12.  Vermont’s  current  Framework  of  Standards  has  been  in  place  for  over  a  decade  and  has  served  us  well.  As  society’s  needs  change  and  the  expectations  for  schools  change,  our  standards  must  also  be  adjusted. CCSS  provide  all  of  the  participating  states  a  common  platform  to  build  their  local  curricula.  It’s  important  to  point  out  that  the  local  schools  and  teachers  still  decide  how  they  want  to  teach  and  what  curriculum  they  use,  the  standards  provide  the  schools  and  teachers  with  a  framework.  These  standards  are  an  evolution  of  our  current  standards  and  are  written  to  prepare  all  students  to  be  “college  and  career  readyâ€?  by  the  time  they  graduate  from  high  school.  Vermont  played  an  active  role  in  the  adoption  of  these  stan- dards  as  former  Gov.  James  Douglas  (then  chair  of  the  National  Governors  Association)  worked  to  initiate  this  work.  Vermont  has  experience  working  across  state  lines,  as  we  were  a  founding  member  of  the  New  England  Com- mon  Assessment  Program  (NECAP);Íž  we  collaborated  with  New  Hampshire,  Maine  and  Rhode  Island  to  develop  rigorous  common  standards  and  uniform  assessments.  Our  New  England  experience  was  used  as  a  model  for  the  CCSS. For  many  years,  as  a  Vermont  educator,  I  could  never  understand  why  as  a  nation  we  had  50  sets  of  standards,  and  why  each  state  had  different  sets  of  goals  for  their  students  to  meet.  I  understand  and  support  the  concept  of  states’  rights,  but  this  idea  no  longer  makes  sense  when  we  have  become  such  a  mobile  and  transient  society.  Often  these  moves  mean  students  miss  information  or  have  lessons  repeated  because  of  the  incongruence  of  our  state  standards.  Additionally,  the  assessments  aligned  to  these  standards  are  used  to  compare  states  even  though  the  standards  have  varying  levels  of  GLIÂżFXOW\ Recently,  there  has  been  much  discussion  at  the  local  and  state  level  about  the  adoption  of  these  new  standards.  The  CCSS  were  written  by  states  for  states  to  meet  our  country’s  needs  in  the  future,  and  are  not  federal  standards.  Some  will  argue  that  these  standards  are  not  needed,  or  are  not  rigorous  enough,  or  are  too  rigorous,  or  are  being  driven  by  foundations  or  big  mon- ies.  It  is  true  that  many  national  organizations  have  supported  the  writing  of  these  standards,  but  it  was  not  the  big  corporations  driving  the  decision  to  adopt  the  standards,  rather  it  was  our  states  that  led  this  charge. Vermont  was  involved  in  developing  these  standards  and  we  have  also  been  instrumental  in  working  on  the  assessment  that  will  measure  our  new  standards.  Vermont  and  our  bordering  New  England  states  have  all  been  actively  engaged  in  this  work;Íž  we  all  see  this  as  the  logical  evolution  of  our  current  standards.  AN  ICE-ÂCOATED  branch  hangs  in  the  Ripton  woods  last  week  near  one  of  the  snow  making  machines  You  may  have  heard  arguments  against  these  standards  by  an  array  of  already  at  work  at  Rikert  Nordic  Center.  individuals  and  groups.  Are  these  standards  perfect?  No,  but  they  are  an  Independent  photo/Trent  Campbell LPSURYHPHQW IURP RXU FXUUHQW VWDQGDUGV 7KHVH VWDQGDUGV DUH PRUH UHĂ€HFWLYH of  Vermont’s  and  our  country’s  needs,  both  now  and  in  the  future.  Working  among  states  requires  some  collaboration  and  compromise.  It  is  a  testament  to  our  governors  and  our  states’  educational  leaders  to  have  come  up  with  such  a  forward  thinking  concept.  I  applaud  the  legislators  and  state  boards  of  education  for  supporting  and  adopting  these  new  standards  when  our  politi- cal  process  in  Washington  seems  paralyzed  by  partisan  gridlock.

Vt. Ag. board announces election of new chairman MONTPELIER — The Vermont Agricultural and Forest Products Development Board, known as the VAFPDB, recently announced the election of Lynn Coale of Weybridge to serve as chair of the board. The VAFPDB primarily oper- ates as an advisory and policy board performing in-depth analyses of the gaps, barriers and opportunities in the agricultural and forestry and for- est products sectors that are either preventing or enhancing economic growth and sustainability within these sectors. The Vermont Agricul- tural Development Board was estab- lished in the 2010 legislative session (Act 158) and added four forestry sector seats to the board in August 2012 (Act 142) for the creation of the VAFPDB. Lynn Coale has served as a VAF- PDB member since the board’s in- ception in 2010 and was reappointed to the board to serve his second term in 2013. Coale occupies the Senate
Committee on Committees’ appoint- ed seat of a person with experience in providing youth with educational op- portunities for enhancing understand- ing of agriculture or forestry. Coale is the superintendent of the Patricia A. Hannaford Regional Technical School District in Middle- bury. The school district offers career and technical education to 1,500 high school students and 30,000 adults in Addison County. In his career he has been a high school administrator in Wyoming, as principal of Wyoming Indian High School. Coale has also been an ad- junct professor for Central Wyoming College, the University of Wyoming and Regis University. In addition to serving on the VAFPDB, he serves on the following boards: the Vermont Farm to Plate organizations’ Educa- tion, Workforce Development and Strategic Planning committees, as well as the Vermont Science Tech- nology Engineering and Mathematics

ADDISON COUNTY’S HOMESCHOOL Soccer Team gathers for a photo at an end-of-season awards ceremony on Nov. 5.
Addison homeschoolers came in droves for soccer MIDDLEBURY — This fall in Middlebury a large group of home- schoolers got together and formed a soccer team to practice and improve our skill. Our team consisted of around 50 kids (ages 1-16) from in and around Addison County. Eliza- beth Curran of Whiting organized the group and was amazed at the awesome turnout from our home-
school community. Our team practiced every Tuesday at the Middlebury Rec. Field and all us kids had a blast! The coaches de- cided to divide the group up accord- ing to age and ability because there were so many of us. The scrimmage after each practice was always the best part. On Tuesday, Nov. 5, our Home-
school Soccer Team attended an awards ceremony for all who par- WLFLSDWHG RU KHOSHG RXW RQ WKH ¿HOG We were awarded medals with our names engraved on the back and FHUWL¿FDWHV RI DFKLHYHPHQW 7KH DV- sistant coaches were awarded gifts and the head coach was presented with a soccer ball-shaped thumb drive.

“The Coach,” as the kids called him, was Dave McKinnon, select- board member and homeschool dad from Goshen. Coach McKinnon do- nated his time and awesome ability to help us all improve our game. In his day, he was an amazing soccer player and, according to us kids, he still is. From all the players: “Thanks, Coach McKinnon!” Also
thank you to all the great soccer moms and dads that helped out with the younger kids, teaching them cool games that helped improve their skill. We had a great season, see you in the spring! Editor’s note: This article was contributed by Rose Curran, a 10th- grade homeschooler.

Pet of the W
ee k
This is my dog Sadie. She is a girl. She is 9 years old. Sadie likes eating dog food and meat bones. The one thing Sadie LOVES is running and rounding up the cows. Her favorite thing to do with me is to play fetch. Sometimes she runs beside our four-wheeler and runs about 20 mph. Sadie is friendly with other dogs. When you take her picture she has no clue what you are doing. If a soccer team needed a goalie, they should pick Sadie! Olivia Miner Age 8 Leicester

Give your pet the spotlight!
It’s against the law to discriminate when advertising housing related activities. Particularly on sites like Craigslist. And it’s easier to break the law than you might think. You can’t say “no children” or “adults only.” There is lots you can’t say. The federal government is watching for such discrimination. Let us help you sift through the complexities of the Fair Housing Law. Stay legal. Stay on the right side of the nation’s Fair Housing Law. Call the Addison Independent at (802) 388-4944.
