Aktion Club forms in Lawrence By Anna Skinner anna@youarecurrent.com Dave Humes helped start the Aktion Club in the Geist and Fishers area kiwanis through a local branch of Kiwanis International. When he moved his business to Lawrence, he wanted the Lawrence Kiwanis Club to offer those opportunities as well. An Aktion Club is a branch of the Kiwanis Club and is the only service club for individuals with disabilities. “I had gotten really excited about working with the young adults in the Geist/ Fishers area. I saw how rewarding that could be, so I volunteered to start one in Lawrence,” Humes said. Humes recently conducted an open house-type event to inform community members and recruit potential Aktion Club members for the new Lawrence club. Approximately 40 people attended, 12 of whom were individuals with disabilities who joined the Lawrence Aktion Club. The Aktion Club is for individuals 18 or older. Humes said in addition to providing an avenue for service, the club allows members to interact with others as well. “They often feel displaced after they graduate from high school because a lot of their friends go off to college and they feel a little isolated,” Humes said. The Sterrett Center on Otis Avenue offered its facility to the Lawrence Aktion Club for its meetings. The next meeting is 6:30 p.m. Feb. 14 at the Sterrett Center, 8950 Otis Ave., Lawrence. “It was really an enthusiastic group. They got very excited about it,” Humes said. Some of the events the group discussed included a prom, a Halloween event and an all-you-can-eat-pizza night at Jockamo Upper Crust Pizza, among other activities. “There’s a social component.

a service club,” Humes said. “They will have to pick a charity they will donate to and develop fundraising activities. The only requirement is it be somewhere in the Lawrence area.” The paperwork to charter the Lawrence Aktion Club has been submitted, and the Lawrence Kiwanis Club will pay for the charter and the beginning membership fees. When it reaches its second year, the Kiwanis Club also will pay the annual dues, but the third year it will be up to the members. Annual dues are $8. “If they can’t afford the $8 a year, we will certainly pay that for them as well,” Humes said. “We wanted them to feel like they had a financial investment in their own club.” Anyone interested in joining the Lawrence Aktion Club, can email Humes at davehumes@comcast.net.

looks are deceiving? Lawrence Township schools explain state accountability grades, focus on STEM learning By Anna Skinner anna@youarecurrent.com
At first glance, it may seem Lawrence Township schools cover story aren’t excelling when one looks at the Indiana Dept. of Education’s recent accountability grades for the 2017-18 school year. But Chief Academic Officer Troy Knoderer ensures students and parents that a poor accountability grade doesn’t necessarily mean a poor school. Twelve of Lawrence’s 17 schools increased their performance rates, and four rose a letter grade. Two decreased a letter grade. Five schools received a D. Brook Park Elementary received an F. Only two, Amy Beverland and Forest Glen elementary schools, received an A. Knoderer noted that the state’s accountability grade is determined by proficiency scores and growth rates. Although Lawrence Township may not excel in proficiency scores when students first take the ISTEP test in third grade, the growth rates, Knoderer said, are phenomenal. That’s because, due to being in a lower socio-economic area, Lawrence Township schools sometimes have to meet students where they are when they first take the ISTEP test.
“You have to understand the formula of school grades,” Knoderer said. “Half of the formula is about student proficiency and students passing the test, and the other half is about student growth. Forest Glen and Amy Beverland’s proficiency rate is higher, but in terms of student growth, every school in Lawrence Township is an A or a B. That growth is in how (students) scored as a third-grader and how they grew as a fourth-grader. “For the growth half, Lawrence Township is exceptional, but we do know we have differences in schools in terms of what kids come to school with and some of the challenges our families face, so it’s the schools’ responsibility to work with kids over time to get them up to the proficiency mark.” Another reason Lawrence Township has lower accountability grades is ISTEP only tests on English and math standards. Knoderer said science, technology, engineering and mathematics standards are taught frequently at the schools, but students aren’t tested on those skills on state tests. “I think there’s so much else to look at in terms of education rather than just one test,” Knoderer said. “Accountability grades are about how a student did on one test over a few days’ period of time,
so there are so many things that aren’t measured on that test. The state assessment isn’t about STEM. Science isn’t even part of the accountability system, so all the engineering work (students) are doing, that’s a science standard and isn’t going to be reflected in the accountability system, yet we know that’s really good for kids.” Compared to other state ratings, such as graduation rates, Lawrence Township well exceeds a 90 percent graduation rate. With the ILEARN test being implemented this year, Knoderer said Lawrence Township is increasing rigor in the classroom by creating a unique leadership model involving teachers. “We have created a distributive leadership model, and that invests in teachers,” Knoderer said. “There are four classroom team leads (in each school), and they teach half the day and then coach their colleagues the other half of the day. They have credibility with their colleagues because they’re actually teaching half of the day. In other models, you see an instructional coach who has no classroom teaching responsibilities.”
decreasing test anxiety
Although students have improved growth rates in their ISTEP scores, test anxiety can weigh a student down when taking the test. Winding Ridge Elementary teacher Kendra Randle struggled with test anxiety herself as a student, and she said an important factor in helping her students succeed is sharing her own experience with them so they know they are not alone in their anxiety. She also instructs them how to cope with the anxiety. “Daily, we have a meditation break in the middle of the day where we focus on breathing and centering their minds to focus and let go of anything that makes them feel anxious, or nervous, or scared,” Randle said. “I teach them this throughout the school year so that when ISTEP rolls around they are prepared with breathing techniques to help them persevere through if they get anxious during the test. Students need to have confidence within themselves in order to decrease anxiety and techniques to help them push through their anxieties that they may encounter during the assessment.”

ESSA Y Real ‘beauties’
LE T T ER Give evidence in articles
Commentary by Terry Anker Many of us break away from the gray Indiana winter days looking for warmer clime and a few rays of sun. Some head to the Caribbean, others to the great American Southwest. But the majority find their way to the various resorts and barrier islands along the south coast of Florida. The populations swell, seasonally, with all manner of pastypale northerners from Manitoba to Tennessee, all seeking a few days of beach time to scrub the accumulated barnacles from too many short and dreary days. Even then, we arrive, carrying still our winter pounds – too soon from the holidays and too shut-in by the weather to have shed them – even as we lug our suitcases filled with bright, cool clothing waiting since September to be worn again. But alongside has come to be this new breed of Floridite — the “beautiful person.” They have decamped the notion of ever returning to the homeland that spawned them, instead satisfied, buoyed by trustfunds or fortune, to live the vacation life year-round. The day consists of various forms of newly discovered exercise and detoxification. Afternoon brings social media and a consensus with others of their ilk on where the clump will congeal for dinner and entertainment that night and overnight. To meet the test, the restaurants and clubs must only admit “beautiful people” (and the very, very rich). Even better if the venue allows for an appropriately distant place for the regular folks to gawk and applaud such that the “beauties” can feign an inconvenience at it all. Still, the spontaneous choreography is beautiful and tragic. It may be time for a lemongrass-avocado rub – or is that a toast? Terry Anker is an associate editor of Current Publishing, LLC. You may email him at terry@youarecurrent.com.
Dear Editor, In the Jan. 15 issue of Current in Fishers, under the heading “Business Local,” there was an article titled, “Alcohol, hate crime legislation priorities for OneZone.” My question concerns a statement by OneZone President Mo Merhoff. The statement reads: “When we look at bias crimes legislation, it’s an important factor from a jobs standpoint.” Please expand on that. Has there been a study or studies concerning this? If so, would you please reference that study in your comment rather than just stating flatly that bias crimes legislation impacts jobs in some way. We might also ask is it all jobs or just certain jobs. This belief that a crime is worse because it is between two people of different races, ethnicity, etc., simply doesn’t make sense to me. Robert Dombrow, Fishers
Highs and lows of 47 Commentary by Danielle Wilson I celebrated a birthday over the weekend, and as I reflect on the day itself, I’m trying to decide whether it was good humor or bad. On the surface, I definitely deserve a do-over. To most people, it will “sound” terrible. But if I’d been able to script my most perfect of days, I’m not sure it would have been too far off what actually transpired. For starters, I knew my 47th would be quiet. Doo took three of our four kids to attempt skiing in Michigan, leaving me with our youngest, who had school commitments. I abhor being cold and potential death by arboreal collision, so I was more than happy to stay behind. Besides, I gained a freebie trip to sunny Florida come February as part of the deal. Win-win! What I didn’t count on was coming down with a mild sinus thingy, leaving me tired and headachy. And though I thought my
I’ve-been-smoking-Marlboros-since-middleschool voice was kind of sexy, the resulting upper lip cold sore was decidedly unattractive. My celebratory mini-shopping spree would have to wait. So, too, would my highly anticipated afternoon at Regal Cinemas with Ruth Bader Ginsburg. Deteriorating road conditions from an ice storm made leaving the house just plain stupid. Disappointing, for sure, because I’d also wanted to try a new method of soup smuggling. I spent most of my birthday sick and trapped indoors. But I enjoyed a comfy couch by a fire, Netflix at my disposal and plenty of calls and texts from family. Not exactly what I had planned, but relaxing, nonetheless. Chalk “47” up as a good birthday! Peace out.

For the love of meatloaf Commentary by Dick Wolfsie After writing more than 1,000 weekly humor columns, I’m out of ideas. I told Mary Ellen there is nothing left to humor write about. I added that Dave Barry and Art Buchwald both had nervous breakdowns due to the pressure. That last part isn’t true, but my wife is not a Googler, so I may get away with it. I wanted Mary Ellen to say something like, “Dick, you are creative. Don’t let a little writer’s block get you down. Something will come to you. It always does.” Instead, I got, “Maybe you’re right. Just tell the newspapers you’re quitting.” When I was a kid and felt overwhelmed by Spanish or geometry, my mom would tell me I could do anything I put my mind to. Then she’d cook my favorite meatloaf dinner. Why can’t my wife treat me more like a child? I decided to call Heidi, my proofreader. I knew she’d be more encouraging. “Heidi, I can’t write another column,” I said. “I’m hanging it up. There are no more original ideas.” “You’re right,” she said. “There’s probably nothing funny left to say. It’s been pretty obvious the last few weeks.”
“Wait a second. Aren’t you going to tell me that I’m incredibly prolific and I will eventually come up with a topic, just like I always have for 20 years? You must have something else to add.” “Oh, yeah! Don’t forget to put that last check in the mail.” I texted my sister in New York. Her response: “Oh, well, one less thing in my inbox each week. How’s the weather out there?” Finally, I called my friend. Bob and his wife read my stuff every week. Cathy answered the phone. I told her I had probably written my final column. “Dick, give it time. Something will come to you. You have a great imagination. I know you can do it.” “Wow, thank you, Cathy. That’s the kind of support I was looking for.” “You’re welcome. Do you want to come over for dinner tonight? We’re having meatloaf.”

Blueprint for Improvement: Indoor/outdoor living in Carmel Commentary by Larry Greene
The Solution
After
Before
The goal was to create an indoor/outdoor living space that the homeowners can enjoy for most of the year. 1. A new three-seasons room replaced the original deck. The foundation and decking were updated, and the roof and siding match the existing exterior of the home. 2. Eze-Breeze outswinging windows and doors allow the homeowners to effortlessly convert the room from sunroom to screened porch. It’s a true indoor/ outdoor living experience! 3. A fireplace was added so the space can be enjoyed in the colder months. 4. The outdoor area now features a large patio furnished with a gas fire pit. 5. For more on this project or to learn more about us, visit our website or find us on social media.
Background: This home, built in 2005, is in the Delaware Trace neighborhood of east Carmel. The lot features a large backyard that was being underutilized.
the challenge The homeowners wanted a larger outdoor living space and a better functioning backyard. They were looking for a solution to maximize the available space so the family could enjoy the outdoors year-round.

A rendering of the HC Tavern & Kitchen slated for The Yard at Fishers District. (Submitted rendering)
HC Tavern & Kitchen to replace Burger Study By Anna Skinner anna@youarecurrent.com As The Yard at Fishers District takes shape, Burger Study restaurants will no longer be part of the development. A St. Elmo Steakhouse subsidiary, Burger Study, was nixed when developer Thompson Thrift added apartments to the project. “When Thompson Thrift added apartments to the development, it bumped our purchase land space to a new location front and center on 116th (Street), essentially The Yard’s main entrance,” Huse Culinary President Craig Huse said. “We then decided that a more prominent, original concept would be better suited for the new location.” Burger Study will be replaced by The HC
Tavern & Kitchen, an independent restaurant and bar operated by Huse Culinary. Huse Culinary stated it plans to include food on the HC Tavern & Kitchen menu that is a step above other restaurant selections. Menu items will include oysters, wild mushroom dumplings, flatbreads, salads, a lobster roll, fish tacos, steakburgers, steaks and fresh fish, among other offerings. The HC Tavern & Kitchen is expected to open in October. Huse said it will bring a “wow” factor to Fishers. “It’s independent, upscale, yet approachable and comfortable, creative, sophisticated,” he said.

Daniels takes on challenge of iconic ‘Grease’ role at Beef & Boards By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com Sarah Daniels regards performing as Sandy Dumbrowski in the musical “Grease” a unique challenge because theater the role is so iconic. “Olivia Newton-John was so perfect in the film, and that performance is what sticks in people’s memory, but the (Broadway) musical came before the (1978) movie, so as an actor that is where I dive in,” Daniels said. “Sandy is brought to life from the text, the way she communicates with others, her relationships, etc. Sandy has definitely been one of my favorite roles to play, up there with Sophie in ‘Mamma Mia’ and Elle Woods in ‘Legally Blonde.’ “She is very assured and knows her boundaries as well as her morals. She is a little sassier in the musical than she is in the movie, and that’s what grounds her transformation in the end.” Daniels will perform in Beef & Boards Dinner Theatre’s production of “Grease” Feb. 7 through March 31. Daniels and Kaleb Lankford, who plays Danny Zuko, are making their Beef & Boards debut. Daniels has long been a fan of the musical. “I secretly always wanted to be a Pink Lady,” she said. “I remember as a kid watching the film and being completely shocked when Sandy came out at the end, completely transformed, and thinking, ‘Wow, I could never do that.’ The music is still so memorable to this day. It’s hard not to fall in love with this story and these unique characters.” Daniels said she understands why the story still resonates with audiences. “‘Grease’ is a story about discovery and finding yourself. At its core, I think it’s something people can relate to at any age,” said Daniels, whose husband is actor Skye Scott. Daniels was an alternate to play Sandy in a Toronto production before getting the role. “I was very lucky in that I ended up get-

ting to rehearse with the cast as Sandy for the first two weeks,” she said. “(Original cast member) Janel Parrish was doing press for her new TV show and couldn’t be at rehearsals. As an alternate, you typically only get the luxury of one run-through with the cast and can be thrown in any time. I ended up going on the first weekend as Sandy, and I’m so thankful I had the first few weeks with the cast because it was a whirlwind of quick changes and technical aspects I hadn’t experienced yet. This version of ‘Grease’ is a little different than the version I did in Toronto, so I’m very excited to explore those differences with this cast and creative team.” In addition to acting, Daniels is an active gamer. She livestreams on Twitch.tv and has more than 35,000 followers. “Gaming has always been a huge staple in my life,” Daniels said. “I started playing very young, starting on the Super Nintendo
and the Sega Genesis. Growing up, I was always balancing gaming and performing. As a 12-year-old on the national tour of ‘Bear in the Big Blue House Live,’ I traveled with a PlayStation that had its own battery and a fold-up LCD screen, so I could game on the go. I only play non-competitive modes, player versus environment, as opposed to player versus player, such as RPGs (role-playing games) and first-person shooters. People tune into my channel to watch me play through games and make witty commentary as well as play with me and chill out and chat with others who have the same things in common. I never thought I could turn gaming into a career. I’m thankful for my incredible viewers every day. I would be nothing without their support.” “Grease” is directed by Eddie Curry and choreographed by Ron Morgan.

Is Pacers is or are? Commentary by Curtis Honeycutt
Statue of John Lennon in Havana Park. (Photo by Don Knebel)
Honoring John Lennon in Cuba Commentary by Don Knebel Among the most unexpected sights in Havana, Cuba, are a small park bearing a statue of John Lennon and a nearby bar devoted to music that Cuba previtravel ously banned. In 1964, soon after The Beatles had appeared on the Ed Sullivan Show, Cuban dictator Fidel Castro issued a nationwide decree banning The Beatles and their music as the supposed product of the decadent capitalist system. However, by the late 1990s, motivated at least in part by Cuba’s desperate need for revenue from Western tourists, Castro’s attitude toward The Beatles changed. He now pictured John Lennon as a revolutionary martyr because of his opposition to the Vietnam War. On Dec. 8, 2000, the 20th anniversary of Lennon’s murder, Castro personally unveiled a bronze statue of Lennon in a public square west of Havana’s Old Town. With “All You Need is Love” playing in the background, Castro explained why he had decided to honor the once-banned Lennon: “I share his
dreams completely. I, too, am a dreamer who has seen his dreams turn into reality.” The life-size likeness of Lennon, depicted as he looked during his days of protest, sits at the end of a bench, at the base of which is a Spanish translation of, “You may say I’m a dreamer, but I’m not the only one” from “Imagine.” Busloads of tourists soon began coming to Parque John Lennon to have their pictures taken sitting beside the famous Beatle. The round eyeglasses were stolen so often that they are now guarded. In April 2011, the Cuban government opened Submarino Amarillo (Yellow Submarine) just east of the park. In the lively bar featuring blue and yellow walls covered in images of The Beatles and lyrics of their songs, Cuban musicians play music from the ’60s and ’70s that once would have led to their arrests.

Source: BottomLineInc.Com Soil testing made easy — Home gardeners now have an easy way to check the pH level
Last week, I discussed the topic of subject-verb agreement. Many of you wrote in and asked grammar guy about sports teams, particularly sports teams whose names don’t end in “s”: Are they considered singular or plural? Would you say, “The Jazz is winning the game” or, “The Jazz are winning the game?” This is a tricky one. When it comes to the Indiana Pacers, you would always say, “The Pacers are winning the game” because “Pacers” is obviously plural, therefore the noun takes the plural verb “are.” The same goes for the Panthers, Packers, Pirates and Patriots. You would never say, “The Panthers is looking sluggish out there.” When it comes to the official rules of grammar, allow me to punt to the AP Stylebook and the Chicago Manual of Style. Both guides suggest you treat all team names as plural, regardless of whether the team name ends in “s.” So, this means you should (according to the rules) say, “The Heat are winning the game.” But what about soccer? And what
of soil. The General 4-in-1 Soil Condition Meter measures pH, moisture level, and temperature. Source: FamilyHandyman.com Interior storm safety – During a storm, you are generally safe inside. Lightning, however, can still get to you through the conductive paths in your house, including wiring, plumbing and water.

about England? Many soccer clubs go by their city or club name, so you have teams being referred to as merely Liverpool or Watford (for city names), or Arsenal or Crystal Palace. By the same rule, you hear soccer (or football) announcers say things like, “Arsenal are really having a tough go of it today.” So, my big question is: Does the same rule apply to your team when you’re referring to its location? When referring to teams, locations and schools, use singular pronouns and verbs: “Harvard is bad at football.” Team names always take plural verbs. The official British rules state a team is always plural, whether you’re referring to the team name or the city name. That’s why you hear British announcers say, “France are the World Cup champions.” This sounds strange to our American English ears because our rules are different.
