A recent report from UVA’s Weldon Cooper Center for Public Service states that the number of seniors in Virginia is expected to double (yes, double) by 2030. By then one in five Virginians will be over 65, much of that growth in our rural areas. By 2024, one in four people in the Greater Charlottesville area will be 65 or older. One in four! Fortunately, a local aging alliance is leading the way and our local governments are stepping up. Under leadership of the Charlottesville Area Alliance (CAA), a collective of regional partners (whose objective is to lead the advancement of an age-friendly community) has been accepted into the AARP Network of Age-Friendly Communities, an affiliate of the World Health Organization’s Global Network of Age-Friendly Cities and Communities Program. An age-friendly community is one that is organized to help all live safely, enjoy good health, and stay involved. “The Board of Supervisors has adopted a strategic objective to establish and implement an approach to consider intergenerational community needs as part of County planning in its FY1719 Strategic Plan,” said Interim County Executive, Doug Walker. “Albemarle County’s acceptance into the AARP Network of Age-Friendly Communities demonstrates our commitment to actively work towards making Albemarle County a great place to live for people of all ages.” Maurice Jones, City Manager, said “The City of Charlottesville is pleased and excited to be a member of the AARP and WHO Age-Friendly Cities Network. This allows us an opportunity to assess our strengths and make sure that our region supports our seniors in a vibrant and inclusive community.” By 2024, one in four people in the Greater Charlottesville area will be 65 or older.

With Virginia’s Aging Population Expected To Double, Charlottesville Area Alliance And Local Governments Take Action

community. The AARP Network of Age-Friendly Communities encourages states, cities, towns and counties to prepare for the rapid aging of the U.S. population by paying increased attention to the environmental, economic, and social factors that influence the health and well-being of older adults. Membership in the Network of Age-Friendly Communities does not necessarily mean that the Greater Charlottesville area is currently age-friendly or a great place to retire. Rather, membership provides access to resources to help create an age-friendly plan and demonstrates our commitment to understanding the process. Peter Thompson, Chair of the Charlottesville Area Alliance and Executive Director of the Senior Center, stated “Albemarle and Charlottesville’s commitment to entering the age-friendly network is considered a landmark day for our community. The framework will drive the Charlottesville Area Alliance’s work with local government, business, non-profits, and citizens for generations to come.” Age-friendly or livable communities have features such as walkable streets, housing and transportation options, access to key services and opportunities for residents to participate in community activities. Investing in these types of features helps position our community to attract and retain people of all ages while supporting connections that promote healthy relationships, inclusion and respect that will help the entire community. About the CAA The CAA is a collective of regional partners whose objective is to lead the advancement of an age-friendly community, being mindful of the unique needs of this region and taking action when needed through education, advocacy, engagement, planning, and evaluation. The CAA aims to develop a common understanding of the needs and issues; to develop policy recommendations; and to encourage implementation by government, non-profit organizations, the general public, and businesses.

QUALITY EDUCATIONS

AND A MULTITUDE OF OPPORTUNITIES AVAILABLE AT AREA

Public Schools BY CELESTE M. SMUCKER

Albemarle County Public Schools

Top Five Percent of Nation In 2016, Albemarle County Public Schools placed within the top five percent of all school divisions in the United States and among the top five school divisions in Virginia. The division earned an A+ rating for the college readiness of its graduates and A ratings for academics, teaching, health & safety and athletic programs. In a companion study, all three of the division’s comprehensive high schools were ranked within the top ten percent of all high schools in the nation. The pathway to this success is formed at the earliest grades based upon five objectives adopted by the School Board. They include engaging every student, implementing balanced assessments of student learning, im-

proving achievement by improving opportunities, establishing and expanding partnerships with the business community and other organizations, and optimizing the value and impact of all resources. Student engagement is addressed through the use of the contemporary technologies and instructional methods that empower students to complete self-designed projects. This hands-on model emphasizes not only the acquisition of knowledge but its application. Students, teachers and administrators have appeared at national conferences to showcase their work, including multiple presentations at the White House. School and university administrators and teachers from throughout the nation have visited Albemarle to learn more about this model. Students develop problem-solving skills in such areas as creativity, critical thinking, collaboration and communication. One such example involved middle school students who volunteered to design, develop and complete a project in which a weather balloon soared to more than 100,000 feet to collect data and photograph the earth’s curvature. Earlier this year, a team of students won a national competition to design, build and operate a wind turbine. Balanced assessments represent a forceful step away from rote learning and evaluate students on the basis

The Albemarle County Public School Division’s strategic plan lists one goal—to have every student graduate having actively mastered the lifelong-learning skills they need to succeed as 21st century learners, workers and citizens. This past year, the division’s on-time graduation rate reached 95 percent, higher than the statewide rate for every one of the nation’s 50 states. Seven out of ten graduates received Advanced Studies Diplomas, well above the 52 percent rate for all school divisions across the Commonwealth. The drop-out rate for Albemarle County public school students was 2.9 percent, well below both the 5.3 percent statewide rate and the national rate of 6.5 percent. The foundation for this consistent outperformance by local students can be found in a 2016 national survey by Niche, an education assessment organization. Each year, Niche conducts a comprehensive analysis of school division performance data and evaluates more 60 million public K-12 school reviews and surveys to identify the Best Public School Divisions in America.

Closing Opportunity Gaps The divisionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s commitment to eliminating opportunity gaps led to its becoming one of the first public school divisions in the nation to adopt a plan to eliminate the digital divide for all school families. Re-purposing its FCC-allocated spectrum, the division provides free broadband access to the homes of students who have not previously had such access, often because of their geographic location. Within a short period of time, nearly all students will be able to fully access the Internet at home for their research and project-based learning needs. For the 2017-18 school year, the division is piloting a new program to close opportunity gaps. The goals of this Equity and Access initiative are three-fold: to remove the predictability of success or failures that correlate with social or cultural factors; to create inclusive multicultural school environments for adults and children and to discover and cultivate the unique gifts,

talents and interests that every child and family possesses. A Social, Emotional and Academic Development (SEAD) team is closely working with principals and staff at each school to determine targeted needs in such areas as bilingual support, home and school counseling and assistance with technology learning resources. The program is being piloted at four urban ring elementary schools and eventually will be extended throughout the county. Through its three high school academies for Math, Engineering & Science, Health & Medical Sciences and Environmental Studies, the division continues to build strong connections with local businesses and service organizations, more closely aligning curriculum with the county and nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s professional requirements.

This past November, Albemarle County voters were asked for the first time in more than 40 years to approve a school bond referendum. More than 74 percent of all voters approved the

referendum. It included a building addition to relieve overcrowding at several schools, new science labs and security improvements and the modernization of classrooms throughout

Operational Efficiencies In recent years, the school division has increased its operational efficiencies through such innovative initiatives as energy conservation measures that have generated hundreds of thousands of dollars in cost avoidance, new contracting guidelines that have reduced expenditures by nearly a quarter-million dollars and consolidated bus routes that have lowered fuel costs by millions of dollars.

Clark Elementary School the county that had not been upgraded in several decades. The school division currently is in the process of working with the community on a redesign of the high school academic experience, which will impact curriculums at lower grade levels. It will add an Applied Knowledge and Skills Competency as part of the high school diploma requirement for all students entering high school for the 2018-19 school year; students who currently are enrolled in the eighth grade today. The state Board of Education has recommended that every student’s academic plan be initiated in middle school and include work-based experiences, internships, independent studies, student projects, civic engagement, and other experiences designed to demonstrate applied knowledge and learning. Students will earn identified credentials in the college and career readiness areas of content knowledge, career pathways, community engagement, and workplace skills.

Louisa County Public Schools Louisa County Public Schools (LCPS) currently has six schools: one high school (9-12), one middle school (6-8), and four elementary schools (PK5). Two of the schools are new, Thomas Jefferson Elementary in 2014 and Louisa High School in 2015.

The division also has an alternative education center for students at the elementary, middle, and high school levels. The high school has an extensive Career and Technical Education (CTE) Department and access to a Governor’s School. Our CTE Department now has a Director and Coordinator and is expanding from the high school programs to include STEM and STEAM in all of the elementary schools. All LCPS schools are accredited by the Virginia Department of Education, having met or exceeded the standards required on the SOL assessments. The school division employs approximately 390 teachers, and serves about 4,850 students. The division strives to maintain a 21:1 student/ teacher ratio at the elementary level and a 25:1 student/teacher ratio at the middle and high school levels. In May of 2017 a total of 303 students received their diplomas at the high school’s seventy-seventh annual commencement service. Approximately 33 percent of these students planned to attend a 4-year college, 38 percent planned to attend a 2-year col-

lege, 24 percent planned to work and 5 percent planned to enlist in the military.

Madison County Public Schools Pride In all, Madison is known not so much by “schools” as by educational families—students surrounded by caring, thoughtful parents and community members who expect graduates to have earned a top-notch education. Our students attend Virginia’s and the nation’s top colleges and enter the workforce exceptionally well prepared. This great feat is accomplished by a caring community centered on what we call “Madison Pride”—the drive to provide children with an absolutely remarkable education and a plethora of opportunities. We support the notion of community citizenry and awareness. MCPS embraces our local community that is rich in history and tradition. Our landscape boasts preeminent countryside—mountain life and flatlands—rich with agriculture, viniculture, forestry,

and pastureland. We expect students to know our Madison community and natural wealth as we encourage field trips, community service projects and service learning. In our preeminent countryside, students have the opportunity to experience and learn from our amazing location. Schools For nearly two decades, student enrollment has hovered around 2,000 students in four schools: Madison Primary School (PK-2), Waverly Yowell Elementary School (3-5), William H. Wetsel Middle School (6-8), and Madison County High School (9-12). Exceptional Education Madison County Public Schools (MCPS), a student-centered and community-supported school division, insures a superior education in a changing world. Our vision is to build on excellence to exceed community expectations—to be the best. In Madison, we are proud of excellent schools, which focus on traditional methods and progressive programs in our never-ending cycle of improvement. We are committed to helping students acquire the strong values to deal effectively with important intellectual, ethical, and social problems. Responding to community, parent, and workforce expectations, MCPS aims to educate children to be prepared for good citizenry and life-long learning. Twenty-first century skills require that tomorrow’s workforce be adept at technology, be excellent communicators, be responsible employees, and remain physically fit and active. To this end, we want every secondary student to take Dual Enrollment, Advanced Placement, or earn an Industry Certification prior to graduation. Additional information can be found on the division website at: www2. madisonschools.k12.va.us

Orange County Public Schools Over 97 percent of the teachers employed by Orange County Public Schools are highly qualified. This fall they will educate approximately 4,780 students in nine schools, including six elementary, two middle schools and one high school. Average teacher/pupil ratios are 1:20 in elementary; 1:24 in middle; and 1:23 in high school. All schools in the system are accredited by the Virginia Department of Education. OCPS has 14 percent of its student population identified as gifted and talented students. The division also offers a summer scholars program for enrichment as well as Head Start, Early Head Start and Virginia Preschool Initiative. OCPS utilizes the School Messenger system to notify parents, students, and staff of school-related events. Blue Ridge Virtual Governor’s School, Advanced Placement, Dual Enrollment and Distant Learning opportunities are offered by OCPS. In addition, 977 students earned an Industry Certification. Three hundred and sixty students graduated from OCPS in 2016, of which 190 received an Advanced Studies Diploma. Approximately 79 percent of the graduating class will continue their education. Waynesboro Public Schools A Little Community with Giant Opportunities With a population of approximately 3,000 students and 500 employees, Waynesboro Public Schools is the center of the Waynesboro community. Berkeley Glenn Elementary, Wenonah Elementary, Westwood Elementary, and William Perry Elementary Schools serve our students in grades K – 5. Upon leaving elementary school, our students from all over the city come

together to attend Kate Collins Middle School (grades 6 – 8) and then, Waynesboro High School (grades 9 – 12). We also have a prekindergarten program at the Wayne Hills Center. Waynesboro Public Schools is committed to a quality education that includes a strong academic program designed to meet student needs; comprehensive programs which prepare and encourage students to be productive citizens; quality learning environments and school facilities; a diverse, highly trained staff committed to working effectively with youth; and strong partnerships with parents and the community. Ultimately, our goal is to provide the foundation for our students to graduate career-ready—to enter the workforce, to further educational opportunities, to join the military, or to pursue other options for their future. We do this by providing “Giant” opportunities. Our students are recognized for their academic achievement earning a Standard or Advanced Studies Diploma with the opportunity to earn additional seals—Governor’s, Board of Education, Career and Technical, Advanced Mathematics and Technology, and Excellence in Civics. Students take advantage of Dual Enrollment Opportunities in a partnership with Blue Ridge Community College, Advanced Placement Opportunities, Virtual Virginia Classes, and the Early College Scholars Program. Other opportunities include the Regional Programs at Valley Career School and Technical and Shenandoah Valley Governor’s School. A fourth cohort of Valley Scholars, made up of Kate Collins and Waynesboro High School students, begins this fall in a partnership with James Madison University. The opportunity for student expression through the arts and physical edu-

cation is another “Giant” opportunity in Waynesboro Public Schools. Our students have music, art, and physical education programs taught by specialists in all of our schools. Skillful Sketchers and Signature Singers extend the learning for our students who want to expand their musical and artistic experiences in the elementary schools. Full time art, band, and choral teachers provide for music and instruction in both the middle and high schools. In fact, because of our strong foundational programs in the lower grades, our high school has three full time art teachers. Our physical education programs have flourished as well. Our teams are competitive and provide many evenings of entertainment and pride for the community. Regional track meets are often held in Waynesboro because of the state of the art track and soccer facility. The Waynesboro High School mascot is the “Little Giant.” All of our students will become a “Little Giant” and we are very proud of that. You will recognize them by their ability to problem solve, their use of technology, their strong work ethic, and their commitment to excellence. Waynesboro’s students are ready for the world and will continue to benefit from this “Little Community with Giant Opportunities.” n
