On Jan. 2, the Indiana Dept. of Education released graduation rates for all public-school districts in the state. The waiver graduation rate and the non-waiver graduation rate increased. In Hamilton County, all school districts had a EDUCATION graduation rate well above 95 percent. Hamilton Southeastern Schools led the county with a 97.13 graduation rate. Carmel Clay Schools had a 96.87 percent rate, followed by Noblesville Schools (96.33 percent) and Westfield Washington Schools (96.01 percent). WWS dropped approximately half a percent in graduation rates from 2017. Hamilton Southeastern Schools rose approximately 5 percent in 2018. Carmel Clay Schools increased one-third of a percent while Noblesville Schools dropped approximately 2 percent. Overall, schools within Hamilton County’s four cities were all above the state average graduation rate, which is less than 90 percent. “With the increase to Indiana’s graduation rate, it is evident our schools are committed to the academic success of our students,” Indiana Supt. of Public Instruction Jennifer McCormick stated in a press release. “While there is still work to be done, we will continue to partner with local districts to ensure every student graduates prepared for life beyond high school.”

Leonard Wild: Noblesville’s ‘master builder’ Commentary by David Heighway William Conner may have established the City of Noblesville, but there is another person who is responsible for how much of it looks today. Leonard HIGHLIGHTS Wild (1834-1909) could be IN HISTORY considered Noblesville’s “master builder.” Wild was born in Germany and immigrated to the U.S. in 1854. After arriving in Noblesville in 1855, he went to work for the Conner family and others and eventually went into business for himself. He built his first home sometime before 1866 on Wild the southwest corner of Clinton and 10th streets, now a parking lot. Wild purchased the area of land known as “Plum Prairie” (the Southwest Quadrant) from the Conner family in 1866. He planned to develop it, and originally named Fifth and Sixth streets “Leonard Street” and “Wild Street.” In 1867, he replaced the house that William Conner had built in 1837 with the structure known as the R. L Wilson House (now the home of Heavenly Sweets), possibly as an encouragement to move to the area. The development didn’t take off at first and remained agricultural for several years. Wild was on the committee that built a new school in 1870 on the site of the 1852 County Seminary. The structure was known at first as the high school and later became Second Ward School. The site is now Seminary Park. He built himself a new home on Pleasant Street sometime before 1880. On a map of the period, it’s the only house in the area and was still considered a farm in 1890. He built a new building for his grocery business in 1880 (now the Noblesville Antique Mall). His most ambitious project at this time was to build the city’s first professional level theater, The Opera House, on north Ninth Street, in 1886. The only image we have of the building is from a Sanborn map because the structure burned down in 1892. When the natural gas boom began in 1887, Wild jumped right in. He helped bring the Strawboard plant to the city in the 1890s. This caused the Plum Prairie area to grow rapidly as factory workers bought houses. There were some problems. The area soon acquired the nickname of “John-

stown” because of flooding. With the success of the Plum Prairie development, Wild apparently went on a building spree. Later biographical articles give him credit for several prominent structures. After a bad fire on the courthouse square in 1892, he built the building known as the HarrisJoseph Block (now the offices of Church, Church, Hittle and Antrim). Other buildings were for the gas company (now Miller Surveying) and the Craycraft & Osbon store (now the Copper Still restaurant). The Craycraft building was much altered in the early 20th century and has now been semi-restored. It was probably around this time that Leonard Wild got the nickname “Boss Wild.” The most spectacular structure he built was the second Opera House in 1895. It was fireproof with walls that were four-bricks thick. It was the main theater in the city for many years but was demolished in 1959 and is now a city parking lot. David Heighway is the Hamilton County historian at Hamilton East Public Library. He can be contacted by emailing heighwayd@hepl.lib.in.us.

A PLAN FOR GROWTH www.currentnoblesville.com
Downtown arts venue to use recent grant for long-term sustainability By Sadie Hunter sadie@youarecurrent.com
Logan Street Sanctuary, a downtown Noblesville nonprofit, is among the beneficiares of a recent round COVER STORY of grants awarded by the Hamilton County Community Foundation. A 65-seat performance venue at 1274 Logan St. on the downtown square, Logan Street Sanctuary received a $10,000 grant from HCCF, which awarded a combined $101,000 to nine county organizations. Alys Caviness-Gober, Logan Street Sanctuary’s board secretary who also handles its programming, events and development, said the grant is a huge opportunity for the all-volunteer nonprofit to organize, grow and create a plan for its future. “Hamilton County Community Foundation has always been a wonderful supporter of the arts and artists in Hamilton County,” Caviness-Gober said. “The grant is just a wonderful thing because it does give us the support for operating costs, like rent, professional fees, licensing and supplies.” In large part, the grant lets the leadership re-focus its energy on long-term planning and bolstering its series events. “The major thing is to create a fundraising plan that will ensure support from local businesses,” Caviness-Gober said. “The grant has allowed us to look a full year ahead and say, ‘We can focus growing our organization, rather than be so worried and concerned about how we’re going to pay the rent and buy toilet paper.’ It really is a wonderful opportunity for us to take this organization to a level that we kind of have only dreamed of in that past four years.” Because LLS doesn’t own the building it’s housed in, Caviness-Gober said the suggested donations for events admission are applied toward rent, utilities, cleaning supplies and everyday operational costs. “I used to promote fundraisers for us that would advertise the event by saying, ‘Help us keep the lights on and the toilets flushing,’ because literally we would be fundraising for rent money to continue to be in this location,” she said. Caviness-Gober said the grant not only lets the organization’s leadership take a breather, but it boosts the confidence of its

investors, which range from high schoolers throwing a few dollars in a jar during monthly young artist showcase events to local businesses sponsoring pews for guest seating. “The grant helps us in a way that we’ve not had this kind of support before,”
Caviness-Gober said. “It also helps for when we’re asking for donations and sponsorships and holding fundraisers to be able to say we have the backing (of HCCF).” Logan Street Sanctuary was incorporated as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit in November 2014. Known primarily as a singer/songwriter

performance venue, its overall mission is to endorse local artists, including musicians, writers and visual artists. “One of the things that we have always tried to do is have a lot of diverse events,” Caviness-Gober said. “We have our Second Saturday Showcase Series, which is a concert series. We have a Third Saturday Comedy Showcase and Fourth Friday Young Musicians Showcase, and then Page & Stage, the summer drama and literacy camp. We also have our Noblesville Interdisciplinary Creativity Expo, which is literature based, and of course, publishing the Polk Street Review, which is literature, art, music and everything else. “This truly is a cultural arts organization. I remember completing the (nonprofit) incorporation papers and thinking, in five to 10 years, we’ll really be booming. Here it is almost five years later, and we’re booming.”

LETTER Priorities misplaced
Commentary by Terry Anker The California State Railroad Museum in Old Sacramento is widely regarded by visitors to that fine city as worth the trip. Its expansive collection and exhibits inspire and delight for a modest price of admission. One interesting interactive presentation allows for the guest to sit in a mock-up of the cockpit of a famed Japanese bullet train. Acting as engineer, one is challenged to load passengers, leave the station, race across urban and rural landscapes and arrive safely to the end-of-the line within a few feet of the precise drop point. While waiting for the attraction, there are many displays regaling the history and aspirations of these innovations. It refreshed memories of a conversation I had as a college student with the then-president of Indiana University who was imagining such a connection from IU’s Bloomington campus to IUPUI in Indianapolis to Purdue’s West Lafayette home. “Imagine a 45-minute ride from one end to the other,” he mused. What impact might it have had on our state, its institutions and all of us? Would we be more highly regarded or simply bankrupt? We know that points of connection matter. Old west towns came to prominence and then faded based solely on the caprice of an active stagecoach stop or train station. All ancient capitals had navigable waterways. Like the long-past steam trains, schedules must align and access must be convenient. Daylight savings time, direct flights and ample parking all contribute, in part, to the recipe. Likewise, high-speed internet is a connective lifeblood. Understanding the power of assembly and the risk of isolation, can we thrive, or even survive, in a modern landlock?

Ultimate dad/daughter road trip Commentary by Danielle Wilson I’m alive! And so is my dad. We survived a 14-hour road trip to St. Petersburg, Fla., during New Year’s with an overHUMOR night in exotic Valdosta, Ga. Though it was an impromptu decision to join him, I am so glad I did. Memories were made, people! We ate Egg McMuffins in an uncharacteristically dirty McDonald’s somewhere in rural Tennessee, pondering our chances of winning Mega Millions. We enjoyed the last dinner of 2018 at Red Lobster, surrounded by blue hairs and Cheddar Bay biscuits. And we witnessed a small fender bender in a rest area near Ocala, where the victim went from yelling about her car to hugging the old man that had hit her and insisting he get out of the sun. There is goodness in the world! Plus, I learned a few things about my father. For instance, he does not tolerate inferior paper products. Kleenex or Puffs only, please. Also, that his first concert was
Elvis. Elvis! And finally, that he spent a gap year in London before gap years were cool. In the ‘60s. So, my father was basically Austin Powers. True, Dad still gets anxious when I drive, as if I’m 16 again, wedging the Ford LTD wagon between our house and the neighbor’s fence. And he snores, often quite robustly. But on balance, my father is the perfect traveling companion. He’s comfortable with silence, enjoys the music of the Margaritaville channel and pays for everything. Bottom line, friends? If you ever have the chance to spend quality time with a parent, do it! They’re not going to be around forever, but your memories will. Peace out.

QUOTE OF THE WEEK It is better to be feared than loved, if you cannot be both. - Niccolo Machiavelli
Editor, Just before Christmas, the city council granted tax abatements to three businesses that either plan to move to Noblesville or build a new building here. The abatements amount to more than $900,000 over 10 years and are just the most recent examples of misplaced priorities within City Hall. The city has been awarding these abatements for years, amounting to millions of dollars that aren’t available for public use. Our tax dollars are precious and ought to be spent where they benefit the most people. Seems to me these tax dollars are benefiting a very few people at a time when we are all paying a monthly trash fee because the city doesn’t have the resources to do routine maintenance. The administration uses a state law designed to improve economically disadvantaged areas to justify these tax givebacks, but all three projects are in areas that are among our most advantageous: East of Ind. 37 on previously undeveloped land that is the most desirable in the city. I don’t blame businesses for asking. We’ve conditioned them to request these tax gifts by handing them out for years to just about anyone who asks. But I do blame the city council and the city administration for not keeping a closer watch on the public pocketbook. It’s time City Hall started working for the average taxpayer instead of for businesses looking to improve their balance sheet at our expense. Mike Corbett, Noblesville

Carmel residents form champion ballroom dancing duo By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com Within minutes of meeting more than four years ago, Kathleen Ilo and Jonas Kazlauskas realized they had shared goals for their ballroom dancing careers. DANCE The duo from Carmel captured the professional 10-dance title in the U.S. Championships in Orlando in September 2018, for the second consecutive year. The couple placed third in in the professional 10-dance in the World Championships in October 2018 in Minsk, Belarus. The 10-dance competition includes five Latin dances and five standard dances. “Our goal is to keep the streak in the U.S. and climb a few more spaces in the world,” Kazlauskas said. “That’s why we started dancing together and that’s why we’ll keep on dancing until we get to the finish line.” Kazlauskas said the 10-dance can be more expensive for competition because of the need for expert instruction in certain dances. “We like the music of the waltz, but we like the music of the samba and cha-cha-cha, also,” Kazlauskas said. “When you are working and teaching, you can do shows and teach in both styles. It pays back in the end.” The two began dating six months after they started dancing together. Ilo’s parents, Rauno and Kristiina Ilo, former Soviet Union 10-dance champions, own the Starlite Ballroom and Dance School in Indianapolis. Ilo and Kazlauskas are instructors at the school, teaching all levels and ages. “We have a lot of people who come from Columbus (Ohio), Chicago or Michigan just because they’ve heard of our name and they want to come and have lessons,” Ilo said. “They will seek you out if you have done something worthwhile.” The couple travels frequently for competitions and instruction. In 2018, the couple traveled to London, Italy Estonia, Lithuania, Germany, Belarus, France, China and Thailand. Ilo was seeking a new partner because her partner at the time was living in North Carolina and she had to travel back and forth. Her father found an advertisement Kazlauskas put up on dancesportinfo.net seeking a partner in the fall of 2014. Ilo’s father said he seemed to be the right age, height and looks for her. “It’s like a dating site for dance partners,” Ilo said of the advertisement. The next day, she messaged Kazlauskas, and the following day, she flew to Boston for a tryout. “We decided that day we were going to dance together,” Ilo said. “He had a certain amount of achievements, so that was appealing. He is from Lithuania and that’s close to Estonia, so it’s nice to have someone from a similar culture to you. When we met, we had the same goals.”

Ilo’s family moved to Washington, D.C., from Estonia when she was 5 years old and then moved to Carmel when she was in third grade. After graduating from Cathedral High School, Ilo graduated from Indiana University with a biology degree. “I kind of always knew I would come back to dancing, but for a long time I thought I wanted to be a dentist. Then I decided I didn’t want to be a dentist,” she said. “Right after school, I started teaching and dancing more seriously.” Kazlauskas moved from Lithuania to England when he was 14. He moved to Boston nine years later. Shortly thereafter, he met Ilo. Ilo is 5-foot-5 while Kazlauskas is 6-foot. “The ideal height would be 5-7 for Kazlauskas for ballroom, but for Latin it doesn’t matter because it’s just a hand connection,” Ilo said. “I wear a higher (heel) shoe and he has to bend a little more. He complains a lot about it, but that’s OK.” One advantage Starlite has is its full competition-sized floor. Kazlauskas agreed it benefits rehearsals. “We’re spoiled. The better the floor, the easier it is to dance sometimes,” he said. Kazlauskas would love to see more younger boys give ballroom dancing a try. Ilo’s brother, Markus, a Carmel High School sophomore, started a ballroom dance club at school.

ATI co-founder Farrell to help ‘Salute to Heroes’ at CSO By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com
In addition, Farrell loves patriotic concerts. “There is nothing at all like singing with a Don Farrell has many reasons for wanting symphony orchestra,” Farrell said. “Broadway is amazing, but Broadway pit orchesto take part in Carmel Symphony tras are only like 20, 22 or 24 pieces. Orchestra’s “Salute CONCERT to Heroes” concert. To have 70-plus orchestra members behind you, that is a feeling that you “It’s something can’t quite put into words. It’s an special for me, not only because it’s amazing rush. It’s so wonderful to honoring the veterans, active milihave all those artists coming togethtary personnel and first responders, er to produce such a powerful piece but my Uncle Nick served in the Farrell of music for the audience.” Navy and Uncle Bill was a captain in The “Salute to Heroes” concert, presented the Marines, serving two tours in Vietnam.”
Kunzel and the Cincinnati Pops,” Farrell said. Kunzel, who died in 2009, also was principal pops director for the Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra. “Then, when we started ATI in 2005, that part of my career took a backseat as we got the theater company going,” he said. “I’m so excited to start with symphony concerts again.” Veterans, active military members and first responders receive a 50 percent discount on individual tickets.

Field Brewing
Field Brewing’s Hot Grain Bowl offers a plethora of grains mixed with squash, kale, cabbage, walnuts and pistachios topped with a poached egg and Chermoula dressing. (Photo by Anna Skinner)
Commentary by Anna Skinner Address: 303 E Main St., Westfield What to get: Hot Grain Bowl Price: $12 Anna’s take: Field Brewing opened in October 2018. The modern restaurant and brewery’s take on a healthy, clean menu leaves taste buds and bodies happy. I started with the grilled chicken wings ($8 for a half order, $16 for a full order). The bone-in wings are braised for 1 1/2 hours, then grillled to create a slightly charred exterior. The wings are braised in a spicy garlic sauce, then tossed with fresh herbs to create a vibrant finishing touch. The wings are gluten-free and served with
a house-made Parmesan ranch. For my main dish, I enjoyed the Hot Grain Bowl, which exudes comfort and earthiness with faro, barley, wild rice, lentils and chickpeas. The dish is vegetarian but has plenty of protein from the grains. Kuri squash is mixed with the grains as well as walnuts, kale, cabbage, pistachios and a Chermoula dressing – an African-style spice. It’s topped with a poached egg. Suggested pairings: For the wings, order a pint of Our Lightest Beer, a German-style pilsner that cuts through the heat. For the Hot Grain Bowl, pair it with a pint of Centerfield pale ale, a collaboration between Field Brewing and Centerpoint Brewing in Indianapolis. All pints are $6.
Behind bars: Flora Y Fuma Get it at Anthony’s Chophouse, Carmel Ingredients: 1.5 oz. Tanqueray gin, .75 oz. St. Elder, .25 oz. agave, .25 oz. lemon juice, rosemary sprig Directions: Combine ingredients into a Yari glass, add ice, stir and strain onto fresh ice in an Old Fashioned glass. Garnish with torched rosemary.

Blueprint for Improvement: Northern Indianapolis condo expansion Commentary by Larry Greene
AFTER SOLUTIONS
After
Before
We previously highlighted the larger kitchen remodel, but now we will highlight the remaining kitchen and master bathroom that also were included in the remodel. 1. The homeowners decided to keep two kitchens in the now joint condo. The second kitchen was updated with all new cabinetry, countertops and flooring. 2. One section of the cabinetry was removed, and floating shelves were incorporated for a more modern design. 3. Not only were the countertops upgraded to quartz, but the same material also was incorporated as the backsplash, carrying its beautiful veining through the kitchen. 4. The master bathroom materials were completely updated, and a steam unit was added to the homeowners’ new custom-tile shower for a spa-like experience.
Background info: This condo, in the Olde Mill neighborhood of Northern Indianapolis and built in the late ’80s, was a unique project. The homeowners owned two neighboring condos and wanted to create one space to have more room for family and friends to visit.
BEFORE PROBLEMS As highlighted in the previous Blueprint for Improvement, the two condos were small and divided. There were two kitchens that were dated and felt dark and confined. The bathrooms had never been updated and lacked functionality.
Larry Greene is the owner of Case Design/Remodeling. You may email him at lgreene@caseindy. com. To see more before-and-after pictures of this project, visit caseindy.com/blog.
