What's better than throwing a Harry Potter-themed birthday party? How about taking your child on a real Harry Potter adventure across Scotland and London! That's exactly what Megan did for her daughter's 10th birthday—making the magic come alive with points and miles. In this episode, Megan explains how she made this trip happen for her family of five—and how using points made it more affordable than a trip to Universal Studios! Flying to Scotland on Points Megan and her family started their journey with flights on KLM Flying Blue, taking advantage of the 25% discount for kids under 12. Because they were able to book five economy tickets for just 85,000 points plus taxes/fees, they were able to splurge some on an upgrade to premium economy at check-in. Add in Priority Pass lounge access during their layover (thanks, credit card benefits!) and the whole experience got even better. Exploring Scotland: The Highlands & Harry Potter Locations After landing in Edinburgh, Megan and her family hit the road to explore Scotland's most famous sights—including key Harry Potter filming locations at Glencoe, Glenfinnan Viaduct, and Loch Shiel. From Scotland to London: Train Travel & Harry Potter Studio Tour After road-tripping through Scotland, the family took the train from Edinburgh to London, booking first-class seats for extra space and lounge access.  London's Harry Potter Activities! Megan's family visited: King's Cross Station (Platform 9 ¾) – A must for any fan. Warner Bros. Harry Potter Studio Tour – The ultimate experience, where her daughter got to open the doors to the Hogwarts Great Hall because it was her birthday! They spent over five hours exploring movie sets, props, and magical effects. London on Points: Hyatt Regency Blackfriars & The Cursed Child Play For accommodations, used Hyatt points and the Hyatt Family Plan Rate, getting four nights at the Hyatt Regency London Blackfriars for: ✅ 77,000 points for one room ✅ $700 total for the second room The hotel's location meant Megan's family got free wristbands allowing access to the prime areas for watching New Year's Eve fireworks over Big Ben and the London Eye! To top off their trip, they saw Harry Potter and the Cursed Child—a six-hour theater experience that still had the kids completely engaged. Find out what blew Megan away and why going to the play in London is worth traveling for.  Links For This Episode:  Pam's Hotel Upgrade Template: Hotel Upgrade Form: https://travelmomsquad.ck.page/hotel-upgrade Links: Links For All Things Travel Mom Squad: stan.store/travelmomsquad Episode Minute By Minute: 00:30 – Meet Megan and hear about how this trip came together 02:00 – Booking flights on KLM  06:15 – Harry Potter sites in Scotland 12:30 – Train to London 17:00 – Platform 9 ¾ & the Warner Bros.

Hillsboro School District graduated more students on-time than ever in 2024, with 87.55% of seniors districtwide achieving graduation within four years of their first entry into high school. Graduation rates at two high schools, Century and Glencoe, crested the 90% threshold - a first for Glencoe and just the second time for Century since Oregon began using the cohort calculation method in 2008-09. The District's graduation rate is 5.8 percentage points higher than the state average, and 1.37 percentage points higher than last year's rate of 86.18%.  Sizable gains were made in the focal group categories of Migrant and Students Experiencing Poverty, with overall increases of 7.38 and 7.03 percentage points, respectively. Meanwhile, the gap between all students and Hispanic/Latino students has shrunk to just 1.31 percentage points, which aligns with the District's strategic priority to help students achieve success that is not predictable or predetermined by their race, ethnicity, or any other identities. Learn more on our website.  Our Featured Event is the Lunar New Year celebration that took place at R.A. Brown Middle School on Thursday, January 30. HSD's Asian American and Pacific Islander family engagement committee hosted the event, which ushered in the Year of the Snake in style with delicious food from Vivi's Vietnamese Noodle House, exciting entertainment, kids activities, and much more! Many thanks to everyone who came together in community to take part in the festivities.  We know there is a lot of fear and confusion in our community and across the nation right now with regard to immigration, race and ethnicity, gender identity and expression, and sexual orientation, among other concerns. Students, staff, and families are asking about our position on these topics and whether or not HSD is still a safe place for them. The short answer is YES! At their meeting on Tuesday, January 28, the Hillsboro School Board adopted a Safe and Welcoming Schools resolution, which anchors to federal law, Supreme Court precedent, state law, and our own policies and procedures for keeping students safe. Learn more and read the full resolution on our website.  Hot News is produced and emailed to HSD families and staff each week school is in session.

El Distrito Escolar de Hillsboro logró la mayor cantidad de estudiantes graduados a tiempo de su historia en 2024, donde el 87.55 % de los estudiantes senior de todo el distrito lograron graduarse dentro de los cuatro años posteriores a su primer ingreso a la escuela preparatoria. Dos preparatorias del distrito, Century y Glencoe, superaron el umbral del 90 % de graduación: un hito histórico para Glencoe y la segunda vez para Century desde que Oregón comenzó a utilizar el método de cálculo grupal en 2008-09.  La tasa de graduación del distrito es 5.8 puntos porcentuales superior al promedio estatal y 1.37 puntos porcentuales más alta que la tasa del año pasado del 86.18 %.  Se lograron avances significativos en los grupos focales de estudiantes migrantes y estudiantes en situación de pobreza, con aumentos generales de 7.38 y 7.03 puntos porcentuales, respectivamente.  Mientras tanto, la brecha entre la tasa de graduación de todos los estudiantes y los estudiantes hispanos/latinos se ha reducido a solo 1.31 puntos porcentuales, lo que se alinea con la prioridad estratégica del distrito de asegurarse de que el éxito estudiantil no sea predecible ni predeterminado por su origen racial, origen étnico o cualquier otra identidad. Puede leer más sobre el artículo en nuestro sitio web. Nuestro evento destacado es la celebración del Año Nuevo Lunar que tuvo lugar en la Escuela Secundaria Brown el jueves, 30 de enero. El Comité de Involucramiento Familiar de Asiáticos e Isleños del Pacífico de HSD organizó el evento, donde se dio la bienvenida al Año de la Serpiente con mucho estilo.  El evento contó con deliciosa comida de Vivi's Vietnam Noodle House, entretenimiento, actividades para niños ¡y mucho más! Muchas gracias a todos los que se unieron para celebrar en comunidad.  Sabemos que en nuestra comunidad y en todo el país hay mucho temor y confusión en este momento con respecto a los asuntos migratorios, el origen racial y étnico, la identidad y la expresión de género, y la orientación sexual, entre otras preocupaciones.  Los estudiantes, los miembros del personal y las familias nos han preguntado sobre nuestra postura con respecto a estos temas y si HSD sigue siendo un lugar seguro para ellos. La respuesta es ¡SÍ!  En su reunión del martes, 28 de enero, la Mesa Directiva del Distrito Escolar de Hillsboro adoptó una resolución sobre Escuelas Seguras y Acogedoras, basada en la ley federal, precedentes de la Corte Suprema, la ley estatal y nuestras propias políticas y procedimientos, para mantener a los estudiantes protegidos.

Once a quiet stretch of trail, it's now infamous for ghostly apparitions, mysterious disappearances, and an atmosphere thick with dread. But what lies at the heart of these unsettling stories? We'll explore the historical roots of the legends, recount spine-tingling encounters reported over the years, and reveal a harrowing original tale inspired by the road's ominous reputation.

Was the last clan battle that which happened at Altimarlach in 1680 or the battle of Mulroy in 1688? In this two-part episode I consider the events that lead up to the battle of Mulroy and the different perspectives one could take in deciding if it was the last clan battle. The Highland clans of Mackintosh and MacDonnell of Keppoch take center stage with supporting performances by the MacDonald branches of Glencoe, Glengarry, maybe clan Ranald, Cameron (MacMartin), Grant, and MacPherson. Several notable personalities also make an appearance, including Ewen Cameron of Lochiel, Kenneth Mackenzie of Suddie, chief Lachlan Mackintosh, and the now famous but then young and inexperienced Donald MacBane.

Un componente fundamental de nuestro Plan Estratégico 2023-2027 es la incorporación de las voces de nuestros constituyentes. Hemos trabajado arduamente para asegurarnos de que las oportunidades para compartir opiniones y comentarios sean variadas, significativas e impliquen un alcance intencional a los grupos focales identificados y poblaciones históricamente marginadas.  Estas oportunidades incluyen nuestra encuesta estudiantil anual que se administra en la primavera, reuniones con nuestros comités asesores de padres, conversaciones individuales o en grupos pequeños con familias o estudiantes, charlas del superintendente con grupos focales de estudiantes de las escuelas preparatorias y más.  Durante el año de planificación y el año 1 del Plan Estratégico, también ofrecimos una encuesta para todas las familias, miembros de la comunidad y miembros del personal. Esta encuesta fue casi idéntica a la encuesta estudiantil y tenía aproximadamente 25 preguntas. Con miras a este año, analizamos más detenidamente esa encuesta y analizamos formas de hacerla más relevante y accesible para quienes la respondan, con la esperanza de aumentar la participación y obtener comentarios más sólidos y prácticos para los miembros del personal encargados de supervisar su implementación.  El resultado es una encuesta de solo 7 preguntas. ¡Esperamos sinceramente que todas nuestras familias, miembros de la comunidad y personal tomen unos minutos para completarla y brindarnos sus comentarios sinceros antes del martes, 14 de febrero!  Los temas y las preguntas/inquietudes comunes obtenidas de las respuestas se utilizarán para dar forma a las acciones de mejora de nuestro Plan Estratégico para el año 3, así como nuestro Plan de Orientación Integrada, que incluye nuestra Cuenta de Inversión Estudiantil, el Plan para el Éxito en la Escuela Preparatoria y el Plan para el Aprendizaje Temprano. Nuestros estudiantes destacados son de la clase de Liderazgo de Glencoe. El sábado, 21 de diciembre, el vestíbulo de la Escuela Preparatoria Glencoe se transformó una vez más en un centro integral para los estudiantes y las familias del grupo escolar de Glencoe que necesitaban un poco de ayuda durante las festividades.  Esta actividad se ha convertido en una tradición anual muy esperada por los estudiantes de la clase de Liderazgo de Glencoe y su asesor, Tom Stephens. Juntos, organizaron juguetes, juegos y peluches nuevos; así como ropa, alimentos no perecederos y hasta árboles de Navidad para que las familias pudieran elegir.  En horarios designados, las familias entraban, seleccionaban lo que necesitaban y tenían la opción de disfrutar de un chocolate caliente mientras los estudiantes envolvían sus regalos. El lunes siguiente, los estudiantes entregaron artículos a las familias que no pudieron asistir. En total, más de 134 familias, que representan a más de 400 niños, recibieron apoyo a través de este programa innovador y generoso.  A los estudiantes de la clase de Liderazgo, al Sr. Stephens y a todos aquellos cuyas donaciones hicieron posible este evento, ¡les damos las gracias de todo corazón! ¡Nos hacen sentir Orgullosos de Ser HSD! El lunes, 20 de enero no habrá clases para todos los estudiantes en conmemoración del cumpleaños del Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Las clases se reanudarán el martes, 21 de enero. La publicación de Noticias de la Semana se elabora y se envía por correo electrónico a las familias y a los miembros del personal de HSD cada semana durante el año escolar.

A key component of our 2023-2027 Strategic Plan is the incorporation of constituent voice. We have worked hard to ensure opportunities to share thoughts and feedback are varied, meaningful, and involve intentional outreach to identified focal groups and historically underserved populations. This includes our annual student survey in the spring, meetings with our parent advisory committees, one-on-one or small group conversations with families and/or students, superintendent focus group chats with high school students, and more.  In both the planning year and Year 1 of the Strategic Plan, we also offered a survey to all families, community members, and staff. This survey was almost identical to the student survey and was approximately 25 questions long. Heading into this year, we took a closer look at that survey and brainstormed ways to make it more relevant and accessible to those completing it, in hopes that it would generate higher participation and more robust, actionable feedback for staff overseeing implementation.  What we came up with is a survey that is just 7 questions long! We truly hope all of our families, community members, and staff will take a few minutes to complete the survey and provide their honest feedback by Friday, February 14. Themes and common questions/concerns will be pulled from the responses and used to shape our Year 3 Strategic Plan improvement actions, as well as our Integrated Guidance Plan, which includes our Student Investment Account, High School Success, and Early Literacy Plans. Our featured students are from Glencoe's Leadership class. On Saturday, December 21, Glencoe High School's lobby was once again transformed into a one-stop shop for students and families in the Glencoe feeder group who needed a little help for the holidays. This has become a favorite annual tradition of Glencoe leadership students and their advisor, Tom Stephens. Together, they staged new toys, games, and stuffed animals; as well as clothing, non-perishable food, and even Christmas trees for families to choose from. At designated times, families came into the shop, selected what they needed, and had the option of enjoying hot cocoa as students wrapped their presents. The following Monday, students delivered items to families who weren't able to make it to the shop. In all, more than 134 families representing more than 400 children were served through this innovative and generous program. To the leadership students, Mr. Stephens, and everyone whose donations made the event possible, we say a heartfelt thank you! You make us Proud to be HSD! There will be no school for all students on Monday, January 20, in observance of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s birthday. School resumes on Tuesday, January 21. Hot News is produced and emailed to HSD families and staff each week school is in session. Please add the address to your “safe sender” list to make sure you always receive the latest issue.

Travel with us as we venture to Scotland in the Summer. The sun is out late, the temperature is warm (for Scotland), and the grass is so so green. In this return to Scotland, I venture with Keely, my friend who is also a post-grad candidate for Public History and Cultural Heritage. We book another tour with Rabbie's to venture into the West Highlands, with our base of operations in Tobermory on the Isle of Mull. From driving through Glencoe, swimming in Caribbean-blue waters on the Isle of Iona, and watching puffins fly on the Isle of Staffa, we got a wonderfully raw experience with the magic of mother nature. But of course... shenanigans ensue including losing the keys to our van on a ferry and said van breaking down 4 hours from Edinburgh leaving us stranded... there is no shortage of hijinks during this trip, that's for sure!

What if the natural world could compose a symphony? Join us as we explore this captivating question in our latest episode featuring Martyn Stewart and singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist and producer ONR.Born Robert Shields and hailing from from Dumfriesshire in South Scotland, ONR's distinctive compositions, vocals and exceptional musical capability have captured the imagination of some of the world's biggest acts and most respected musicians; one of ONR's breakout moments being his collaboration with legendary guitarist and producer Nile Rodgers, who became a huge fan and supporter after having happened to see ONR recording at Abbey Road Studios. Rodgers said of Shields in a recent Forbes interview, “he reminds me of working with Daft Punk. His sense of composition is just wonderfully chaotic."Discover how an impromptu Zoom call ignited Martyn's passion for intertwining the audio of Scotland's breathtaking landscapes with music. The magic of Scotland's Western Isles, the Highlands, and the historically rich Culloden Moor and Glencoe are not just backdrops but essential players in this unique musical collaboration.Listeners will be taken on an emotional journey, particularly through the track "You and I," inspired by the Solway Firth. This piece holds profound emotional significance for Robert, offering a deeply personal narrative woven into the melody. You'll hear about the challenges and rewards of composing music driven solely by the rhythms and sounds of nature, from the daunting cries of Peregrine Falcons in Dalbeattie to the serene ambiance of Scotland's untouched wilderness.The episode culminates in a heartfelt reflection on the transformative power of this artistic endeavor. Martyn and Robert share their gratitude for the creative freedom and inspiration this project has brought into their lives.

In this powerful episode, I sit down with Sarah Schmidt—a thought leader, podcast host, mother, cancer survivor, clinical psychologist, and wellness venture capitalist—to explore her incredible journey of resilience and growth. Sarah's story is one of transformation, healing, and the courage to embrace authenticity. Diagnosed with cancer at the young age of 20, she shares how suppressing her needs for love and attention impacted her health and led her on a journey of self-discovery. Her experiences offer valuable insights into navigating life's toughest challenges and finding purpose in the face of adversity. We delve into topics that will resonate with anyone on a journey of self-healing, including the expectations we place on family, especially parents, and the often unspoken disappointment that arises when we realize they aren't perfect. We also discuss her experience coming out to her family, especially within a Catholic background, and the courage it took to seek acceptance and love on her own terms. Sarah speaks to the importance of community and interdependence, emphasizing that we're not meant to carry our burdens alone. But what if you truly are alone, without family or close support? Sarah offers compassionate guidance on how to find a supportive community, even when starting from scratch, reminding us that connection is fundamental to healing and personal fulfillment.

In mid-May of this year, school districts across the state received the final State School Fund reconciliation for the 2022-23 school year and revised assumptions for the 2023-24 school year.  For context, and to simplify a system that is quite complex, public schools in Oregon build their budgets on two primary things:  Revenue - money they project to receive from the Oregon Department of Education for the Average Daily Membership, or ADM, of enrolled students, as well as a variety of other calculations that take into account teacher experience, students requiring additional services, transportation reimbursement, timber funds, local property tax collections, and so on.  Expenditures - money they expect to spend on staffing, benefits, supplies, utilities, administration, service provision, etc.  ODE adjusts the ADM allocation multiple times each year as actual information is received from each of Oregon's 197 school districts, with a final reconciliation completed the May following the completion of any given school year.  What HSD learned with the most recent reconciliation was that, due to a decline in enrollment and revisions to the ADM allocation, we received a negative State School Fund adjustment for the 2022-23 school year of more than $4 million, as well as revised assumptions for the 2023-24 school year of nearly $3 million. After running the June payroll, which is when approximately 25 percent of the District's expenditures are made each year, it also became clear that expenditures in 2023-24 were higher than anticipated in some areas, due in large part to factors outside of our control and the unknown impact of new legislation and associated costs. Because school districts are required to have balanced budgets each year, this burden was shifted to the 2024-25 school year.  The full impact of these prior-year revenue and expenditure changes on the 2024-25 budget was not clear until after September payroll was completed and October 1 enrollment numbers were in. We now know that HSD is facing a shortfall of $9.5 million this school year. Administration has come up with a list of strategies for closing the budget gap in ways that do not directly affect students; however, there are some unknowns as we are still in the midst of bargaining with our licensed and classified employee unions.  Aside from our diligence in managing the budget shortfall we are experiencing this year, a very important task for us is to advocate the Legislature for stable and adequate K-12 school funding in the 2025-27 biennium, a reduction in carve-outs from the State School Fund, and a correction to/avoidance of new unfunded mandates. Visit our website to learn more.  Our Featured Students are our 2024-25 Student Representatives to the School Board: Gwen Kondor, junior at Century High School; Kal Sibbel, senior at Liberty High School; and Abraham Staffa, junior at Hillsboro Online Academy. They were sworn in at the Board's regular session meeting on Tuesday, September 24. Student Representatives are non-voting members of the Board and serve in an advisory capacity, providing an invaluable experience to both the students and Board members. The opportunity to serve as a Student Representative rotates between our high schools each year. Next year, students from Glencoe, Hilhi, and Oak Street Campus can apply.

El comportamiento amable y respetuoso es esperado y fomentado durante todo el año, pero lo enfatizamos aún más durante el Mes Nacional para la Prevención del Acoso Escolar que se celebra en el mes de octubre. El acoso escolar es un comportamiento repetitivo, no deseado y agresivo en el que alguien usa su poder, real o percibido, para lastimar a otros o hacer que se sientan mal o intimidados. Hay muchos tipos diferentes de acoso escolar, incluyendo verbal, físico, social y el ciberacoso. Si están sucediendo conductas de acoso escolar, es importante que nuestros estudiantes se comuniquen con los adultos de su escuela o al menos informen sobre el comportamiento a través de los sistemas para compartir información de manera anónima proporcionados por el Distrito Escolar de Hillsboro o SafeOregon para que se puedan iniciar intervenciones rápidas y apropiadas. En HSD, una de nuestras metas es crear entornos en los salones de clases que sean cordiales y acogedores donde todos los estudiantes y los miembros del personal se sientan aceptados e incluidos. Al fomentar relaciones positivas, ayudamos a los estudiantes a practicar destrezas sociales positivas y reducir las conductas de acoso escolar. Además, el distrito tiene la fortuna de haber establecido sólidas asociaciones con agencias de servicios sociales. Hay muchos programas proactivos respaldados por estas asociaciones que están diseñados para proteger la seguridad de los estudiantes a través de la educación, el involucramiento y el apoyo para que tomen decisiones positivas en sus vidas. Obtenga más información en nuestro sitio web.  ¡Nuestro evento destacado es la invitación a la Banda de la Escuela Preparatoria Glencoe para participar en el Desfile de Año Nuevo del 2026 en Londres, Inglaterra! Más allá de la presentación en sí, los estudiantes que realicen el viaje experimentarán un programa educativo completo que incluye visitas a museos, sitios históricos y lugares de interés arquitectónico. La invitación se anunció formalmente en un evento celebrado en Glencoe el jueves, 26 de septiembre donde estuvieron presentes Bob Bone, fundador y presidente del Desfile de Año Nuevo de Londres; Steve Summers, presidente de la Asociación de Alcaldes de Londres; Dean Oblonsy, consultor estadounidense especializado; además de Bill Northen y Jonathan Whaley, directores especializados a nivel internacional. El Sr. Bone señaló que sólo querían contar con las mejores bandas para su evento del 40 aniversario y que Glencoe Marching Tide tiene «una trayectoria y una reputación excelentes». ¡Felicidades Glencoe Marching Tide! ¡Nos hacen sentir Orgullosos de Ser HSD!

Kind and respectful behavior is expected and encouraged all year long, but we pay special attention to it in October during National Bullying Prevention Month.  Bullying is repeated, unwanted, and aggressive behavior where someone uses their power, real or perceived, to hurt someone or make them feel bad or intimidated. There are many different types of bullying, including verbal, physical, social, and cyberbullying.  If bullying is happening, it is important for our students to communicate with the adults in their school or at least to report the behavior through anonymous tip lines provided by the Hillsboro School District or SafeOregon so that swift and appropriate interventions can be initiated.  In HSD, one of our goals is to create warm and welcoming classroom environments where all students and staff feel accepted and included. By fostering positive relationships, we are helping students practice positive social skills and reduce bullying behaviors. In addition, the District is fortunate to have established strong partnerships with social service agencies. There are many proactive programs supported by these partnerships that are designed to protect the safety of students through educating, engaging and supporting them in making positive choices in their lives. Learn more on our website.  Our featured event is the invitation to Glencoe High School's Band to participate in the 2026 New Year's Day Parade in London, England! Beyond the performance itself, students who make the journey will experience a full educational program that includes visiting museums, historic sites, and places of architectural interest.

In 1688 the Stuart King James II was ousted from the throne by his daughter Mary and her husband William of Orange, in what is called the Glorious Revolution. This momentous change would set in motion decades of unrest across the British Isles, as the supporters of James Stuart; his son the ‘Old Pretender' James, and his flamboyant grandson, ‘Bonnie Prince Charlie', both exiled in France and Italy, sought to restore them to the throne of Britain. In Scotland especially, the hereditary home of the Stuarts, rebellion was constantly brewing amongst the Scottish clans, where demands by the English king for them to bend the knee would result in the bloody massacre of Glencoe…finally, with time passing and the momentum of the Stuart cause fading, the Young Pretender; Bonnie Prince Charlie, took up his family's struggle and sailed to Scotland to reclaim his father's crown….the storm clouds of revolt were brewing. What would be Scotland's fate, and indeed that of Britain? In today's episode, William and Anita are joined by historian Jacqueline Riding to discuss the Jacobites and their fight to restore the Stuarts to the British throne, in the build up to the cataclysmic Battle of Culloden… To fill out the survey: survey.empirepoduk.com To buy William's book: https://coles-books.co.uk/the-golden-road-by-william-dalrymple-signed-edition Twitter: @Empirepoduk Email: empirepoduk@gmail.com Goalhangerpodcasts.com Assistant Producer: Tabby Syrett Producer: Callum Hill Exec Producer: Neil Fearn Learn more about your ad choices.
