In the first of our series of shows examining the effects of the pandemic as we reach five years since lockdown, we'll look at how children, adolescents and young adults are faring.

Aspinwall, who had recently moved to Apalachee High, was tragically killed in a school shooting on Wednesday. Known for his dedication and impact on students and athletes, Aspinwall was remembered as a loving mentor and role model. He was a highly respected defensive coach and teacher, recognized for his contributions to Mountain View's football program and his genuine care for his students. His legacy is honored by those he inspired and mentored throughout his career. STORY 2:  A 'Reimagined' Mableton: Development Authority Revamped Mableton Mayor Michael Owens, driven by his concerns about local blight and economic opportunities, has established the Mableton Development Authority (MDA) to boost economic growth. This new independent board replaces the underfunded South Cobb Redevelopment Authority. The MDA, funded by $100,000 annually from Mableton, will work closely with the Cobb Chamber of Commerce and its economic development arm to market the city and drive development projects. Key initiatives include revitalizing Veterans Memorial Highway and the Six Flags Entertainment District, and developing the Magnolia Crossing site. Owens envisions the MDA as crucial for transforming Mableton into a more vibrant, economically robust community.   STORY 3:  Mother and Son Open Cumberland Restaurant Robyn Thompson, CEO of Ashland's Kitchen, has opened a new restaurant in Cumberland with her son Jacob Higbee. Located on the ground floor of One Overton Park, Ashland's Kitchen offers a menu of seasonal, mostly scratch-made dishes for breakfast and lunch, including unique options like shakshuka, keto pancakes, and vegan “chicken” nuggets.

In contrast, Benson has reported just $245.51 in recent filings, though she previously raised $1,065. Despite this disparity, Benson views her campaign as a fight for accountability rather than a fundraising competition. Both candidates will face off in the November election, with control of the school board potentially hanging in the balance.

Break 1: MOG   STORY 1: Mystery Snails Are Invading Lake Lanier and State Officials Say They've Got to Go Lake Lanier is facing an invasive species challenge with the emergence of the Chinese/Japanese Mystery Snail. Georgia Department of Natural Resources officials are concerned about this snail's presence, confirmed to be a reproducing population rather than an isolated case. The origin of these snails in Lake Lanier remains uncertain, but possibilities include their sale in food markets and ownership as pets, despite recent regulations against possessing them in Georgia. These snails pose ecological threats by displacing native species and economic risks by damaging boats and equipment, potentially hindering water access. DNR urges the public, especially anglers and boaters, to prevent further spread by ensuring boats and equipment are clean and by not releasing non-native species into Georgia's waters. STORY 2: Gwinnett Schools Budget Includes Higher Raises for Employees Gwinnett County Public Schools recently approved a $3.2 billion budget for fiscal year 2025, which includes substantial increases in teacher salaries beyond initial expectations. Originally slated for a $3,000 raise, teachers will now receive $4,000, reflecting additional state funding and community feedback. The budget also boosts the cost-of-living adjustment for other employees from 4% to 4.25%. This $32 million in new funding also supports initiatives like more instructional coaches, SAT For All program funding, graduation coaches, and enhanced resources for multilingual and ESOL programs. Additionally, the district plans a slight reduction in its property tax millage rate, pending public input at hearings scheduled for July. STORY 3: Clydesdales Appearance in Gwinnett Promises to Be Second To None The Budweiser Clydesdales, symbols of American tradition, will be in Norcross on July 5th.

Published in the journal Cell, this study addresses the urgent need for new antibiotics as antimicrobial resistance (AMR) poses a significant public health threat, killing 1.27 million people annually. Researchers verified AI predictions by testing 100 peptides in the lab, finding many effective against resistant bacteria. The study involved analyzing over 60,000 metagenomes globally. The resulting AMPSphere database is now publicly available to aid antibiotic discovery. STORY 7: Women overweight as teen or young adult more likely to have stroke: study New research reveals that women who were overweight as teenagers or young adults are significantly more likely to suffer a stroke by age 55, while men do not share the same risk. The Finnish study followed over 10,000 participants for 40 years and found women overweight at ages 14 or 31 had a higher risk of ischemic stroke, even if they lost weight later. Overweight women at age 31 were also more likely to suffer bleeding strokes. Men had increased risk only if obese at age 31. The study emphasizes the long-term health effects of early obesity and suggests health professionals address weight issues in a non-stigmatizing manner. We'll have final thoughts after this.   Break 4: INGLES 1 Signoff – Thanks again for hanging out with us on today's Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast.

In an unprecedented move, a school district in Virginia became the maiden in the nation to revert to original school names linked to the Confederacy, after a name change had previously taken place. A momentous decision took place in 2020 by the Shenandoah County School Board where they altered the names of Stonewall Jackson High School and Ashby-Lee Elementary School to Mountain View High School and Honey Run Elementary School respectively. However, this decision ignited a simmering discontent amongst some local inhabitants who raised a concern that the board had taken the decision to modify the names without considering public opinion. On 9th of May, against this backdrop, the board conducted a public hearing intending to deliberate upon reverting the names. The discussion saw a majority vote in favor with a 5-1 tally, leading to the restoration of the original names. The board members who voted in favor of resurrecting the original names maintained their stance, arguing that the 2020 school board bypassed proper procedures to accomplish their agenda. Gloria Carlineo, a member of the District 2 School Board, criticized the previous board actions, questionning their due process and alleging them of ignoring the voice of the people they represented. 'The actions of the previous board was not an inadvertent error by some neophyte members, but instead, a meticulously planned progression towards their goal, largely ignoring the concerns of those they should represent', Carlineo contended. A local resident who advocated for the name restoration coupled the sentiment, remarking, 'The irony is rich with those who preach lectures on morality whilst turning a blind eye towards the acts of the 2020 school board.' On the contrary, Kyle Gutshall, who stood as the singular opposing vote, expressed his perspective, 'There's a proper way and an improper way of doing things. At the end of the day, it really boils down to one's viewpoint.' Adding further, he said 'The question regarding moral and immoral, right and wrong, is largely subjective and hinges on individual perspective.' Another resident opined, 'Reverting to the name 'Stonewall Jackson' in 2024, would be akin to bringing back a 1959 act that is indelibly linked to mass resistance and segregation under the Jim Crow laws', highlighting the historical implications of the change. General Thomas 'Stonewall' Jackson is revered as one of the most formidable generals of the American Civil War. On a personal level, he was a staunch Presbyterian. Before the flames of war scorched the land, he was known to organize Sunday school sessions for the black populace at his church. In 1863, a tragic incident occurred when Jackson was accidentally shot by one of his own, consequently leading to the amputation of his left arm. Barely a week later, he succumbed to his injuries. 'Jackson was not known to either excuse or advocate the institution of slavery. In his worldview, slavery was sanctified by the Creator and it was not within man's moral jurisdiction to challenge its existence,' remarked historian James Robertson in his work, Stonewall Jackson: The Man, the Soldier, the Legend. Interestingly, the name of Ashby-Lee drew its reference from General Robert E. Lee, the commander of the Confederate army, and Turner Ashby, a dedicated Confederate cavalry officer who performed under Jackson's command and lost his life in 1862. Robert E. Lee, a figure of immense historical importance, had received an offer for the role of Major General in the Union army, poised to wage war against the Confederacy. However, his initial opposition to Southern secession was eventually overshadowed by his deeper allegiance to his home state, Virginia. Despite his personal conflicts, Lee quoted, 'I shall never raise weapons against the Union, however, circumstances may necessitate my participation in the defense of my beloved Virginia, in which case I would not fail in my duty.' Thus, this statement portrays Lee's gravitation towards defending his home turf over engaging in a broader national conflict which he initially resisted.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Break 1: MOG   STORY 1: Man told headaches due to screen time turns out to be brain tumor Conor Smith, 27, was initially told his numb arm was due to "sleeping funny," but he later collapsed and was diagnosed with a grade 2 meningioma, a brain tumor. Smith experienced years of intermittent blurred vision and eye pain attributed to excessive screen time. Following a four-hour operation, six weeks of radiotherapy, and surgery, he faced life-changing injuries, including limited mobility. Undeterred, Smith is currently undertaking a 31,000km sponsored walk for Brain Tumour Research to raise awareness and funds.

This trend is consistent with other developed economies, with Germany, the United Kingdom, Japan, and China witnessing similar aging patterns. The Baby Boomer generation, born between 1946 and 1964, has played a significant role in the rapid growth of the senior population in the U.S. Some regions, like the New England states and certain Western states, are aging more rapidly than others, with Vermont leading the nation in a 5.9 percentage point increase in its senior population share between 2012 and 2022.

The research provides valuable insights into the human genome and the causes of diseases. The study used a deep learning algorithm called PrimateAI-3D to analyze the genomic data. The findings revealed complex genetic relationships among primate species and shed light on the evolution of baboons. The research also suggests interbreeding occurred between early modern humans, Neanderthals, and Denisovans. Furthermore, the study aids in conservation efforts by identifying species in need of protection. The catalog of primate genomic information has also contributed to understanding unique mutations in humans.         Story 6: cats   Cats often knock things off tables and countertops to seek attention or to play. To prevent this behavior, ensure your cat's needs are met, including sufficient food and attention. Combat boredom by regularly changing their toys and using puzzle toys for mental stimulation. Discourage them from accessing tables and countertops by making them unappealing and removing enticing items. You can also use deterrents that emit unpleasant sounds or puffs of air when the cat jumps up. These deterrents are effective as cats won't associate you with the unpleasant experience. By implementing these strategies, you can discourage your cat from engaging in this behavior.     .……back in a moment   Commercial: ESOG- Gen Expo- Ingles 4   Story 7: smith   Jackson Smith, a recent graduate of Mountain View High School, has committed to the baseball program at Bryan College in Tennessee.

The call for a special session comes after recent mass shootings in Atlanta, Georgia, and Moultrie, Georgia, and a mall in Texas.

The suspect has been charged with aggravated assault, but their name has not been released because they are a minor. The shooting took place during an alleged drug deal, and an 18-year-old was shot in the leg. As a result, nearby schools, including South Gwinnett High School, went on a soft lockdown for a few hours. Law enforcement has not provided any additional information about the case due to the ongoing prosecution.    Story 3: GGC   Dr. Jann Joseph, the President of Georgia Gwinnett College, recently discussed the state of the college in an interview with the Gwinnett Daily Post.

The project is expected to cost $195,000, with the county contributing $165,000 from 2017 special purpose local option sales tax funds and the Sugarloaf CID contributing the remaining $30,000. The upgrade is aimed at improving lighting and energy efficiency for drivers passing under the bridge.   Commercial: Lawrenceville -Ingles 2   “Here's Leah McGrath with Ingles Markets joining me to talk meat allergies:”   Leah piece   “Back with more in a moment”   Commercial:  GCPS connect   Story 6: Bones   The Gwinnett Medical Examiner's Office and DNA testing laboratory Othram Inc. are working together to solve a 25-year-old mystery surrounding two sets of bones, believed to belong to a teenager and an infant, found in Norcross.

I had the esteem privilege to have Mike Oliver as the guest on this episode who makes a bold declaration that the quality of our life is only equal to the degree of the challenges we are willing to take on. He backs that up by taking on the challenge to recreate the entire High School experience. He is working to give students access to a community of leaders, maximizing seat time flexibility, inviting learning by inquiry and creating shared leadership among many other things. Mike teaches us that the collection of people we have in the room is the smartest aspect of our environment and not just one person. It is paramount that we create an environment of psychological safety and that we see people for who they can become, believing them into that. Celebrating our approximations each step of the way and making adjustments as needed to adapt to the needs of the learners. Mike helps us believe that we can be a part of this educational revolution, that he describes as a civil rights movement, that students deserve to give them more of an educational experience they deserve. He goes on to teach us about Culture Bound Theory and the need to disrupt our way of thinking so we can expose ourselves to our own biases. This will open our mind to new ways of thinking and seeing the world around us. We can continue to do things the same old way and look for ways to do it better or we can begin to do better things.  Mike Oliver is the progressive principal of Mountain View High School in Mesa, Arizona. He is passionate about teaching and learning and has taken a stand with innovation in public education.  Mike was the founding principal of Zaharis Elementary School, recognized as one of the “25 most innovative, inspiring and coolest schools in America” and the “exemplary school for literacy development in the US” by Scholastic.  Mike has a doctorate degree in Leadership and Innovation from Arizona State University and has committed to working alongside the Mountain View staff and community in reimagining what school can be.  He has boldly declared that Mountain View will become the premiere high school in all of America and welcomes the accountability associated with such a grand expectation.  Mike's priority is his faith and his family.  He is happily married to his wife, Trish, and they have four children and two grandchildren.  Mike is passionate about running, having run over 30 marathons and several ultramarathons, including a 100-mile race.    Resources: ABC News - Team Teaching is Breaking the Mold of High School Education https://www.abc15.com/news/national/team-teaching-is-breaking-the-mold-of-high-school-education Michael A.

Several Gwinnett schools were recognized in more than one category. Paul Duke STEM High School and Mountain View High School made the list in all seven categories in which they are eligible while Archer, Brookwood, Dacula, Duluth, Grayson, Lanier, and Mountain View high schools made the list in six of the seven categories in which they are eligible. DeNelle West, Gwinnett County Public Schools' Chief Learning Officer, says the recognition is a testament to the dedication of the district's educators.

Students who earn a 3, 4, or 5 on an AP exam may receive college credit. The 2023 AP Honor Schools were named in eight categories, based on the results of 2022 AP courses and exams. Please head over to Gwinnett Daily Post dot com for a full list of schools and honors. The Sip & Swine BBQ Festival not only touts some of the best Kansas City-style barbecue in America, but it also impacts the future in extremely positive ways. The festival is set Friday and Saturday at Coolray Field in Lawrenceville. More than 100 professional and shade-tree barbecue competitors from 12 states and two continents will vie for the coveted People's Choice Tasting award in an event sanctioned by the Kansas City Barbecue Society. Admission and parking are free for the two-day porcine extravaganza, which will also feature some 80 craft vendors and 40 food vendors. Now in its eighth year, the Sip & Swine BBQ Festival was originally established as a fundraiser for Home of Hope at Gwinnett Children's Shelter in Buford. Home of Hope is focused on ending homelessness two generations at a time, providing service for homeless infants and children up to 17 years old, along with their young mothers. The nonprofit also aids teenagers aging out of the foster care system. The festival has grown to feature bands, crafts and family-friendly activities, and this year's event is expected to be the largest to date. Proceeds from competition and vendor fees, raffle ticket sales and the purchase of People's Choice Taster Kits all go Home of Hope. Thus far, the festival has raised $742,000 on behalf of the children's shelter. For more information about the Sip & Swine BBQ Festival, visit Sips and Swine dot com.

Maybe he's buying comic books at Galactic Quest before heading over to Strange Taco for dinner?  We'll leave that to the pundits, both inside and outside the peanut gallery, to debate. Regardless of whether you believe in aliens or not, Lawrenceville has notched a Number 1 ranking on what some people might consider a weird list: the most likely places in America to see a UFO. According to BonusFinder.com, you have a higher chance of seeing strange objects in the sky over Lawrenceville than you are in the skies over places such as Sedona, Arizona, and Greenville, South Carolina (which came in at Numbers 2 and 3 on the list, respectively), or the state capitol of Pennsylvania — Harrisburg — which is Number 4 on the list. BonusFinder.com ranked cities based on how many sightings there have been for every 10,000 residents rather than total number of sightings. Sedona, with 96 sightings, would be Number 1 if the latter criteria were the determining factor since Lawrenceville only had 67 sightings. But, it's sightings per capita that determined the rankings, and Lawrenceville — which is home to Gwinnett County Airport at Briscoe Field by the way — was Number 1 in that regard. The city reached the top spot with 144.64 alleged sightings per 10,000 people, according to BonusFinder.com. The sightings lasted, on average, 15.47 minutes.  Lanier High School has earned the College Board AP Computer Science Female Diversity Award for achieving high female representation in AP Computer Science A. Schools honored with the AP Computer Science Female Diversity Award have achieved 50% or higher female exam taker representation in one or both AP computer science courses, or a percentage of female computer science exam takers that meet or exceed that of the school's female population. Sallie Holloway, Gwinnett County Public Schools' Director of Artificial Intelligence and Computer Science, says the award is an acknowledgement of Lanier High School's commitment to inclusivity. More than 1,100 institutions achieved either 50% or higher female representation in one of the two AP computer science courses or a percentage of the female computer science exam takers meeting or exceeding that of the school's female population during the 2021-22 school year. In 2022, Lanier High School was one of 209 schools recognized in the category of AP CSA, and the only school in Gwinnett County to be recognized. Lanier has worked with its partner, State Farm IT, and the cluster schools to create a culture that supports more diversity in computing and other STEM fields and are seeing the fruits of this labor. Beyond the College Board recognition, Lanier High has always been well-represented at the National Center for Women & Information Technology local and national awards. The school regularly sees dozens of girls recognized at the Georgia awards ceremony. Additionally, Lanier has had five girls recognized nationally, including a national honorable mention for Valentina Diaz Romero and national winner Makenna Reilly for 2023 In its long and distinguished history, Buford High School has won untold state championships in just about every sport. And now the time has come to make some room on the school's trophy display for the school's latest state crown. On February 24, Buford's Game Day Cheerleading squad won the Class AAAAAA state championship at Columbus State College. It was the team's first state title in its four-year history. Co-Coach Caroline Parker said the competition – which began with 16 teams in the preliminary round and had eight in the final round – called on squads to showcase their skills in band chant, a crowd-leading cheer, and a routine that accompanies their school's fight song. The 24-member squad – which was selected last April – is made up of cheerleaders for the Wolves' football and basketball games. Now that they know just exactly what it takes to win a state championship, the next season will serve as a lesson on how to effectively defend that championship. There were six seniors on the 2023 team and Parker said she was pleased they were graduating on such a high note. And those involved will get to take a brief break, although it won't be long before the title defense begins, as tryouts begin in three weeks.

An effort by the Mountain View High School football community to help one of its families, which lost its home in a fire on Christmas Day, has exceeded expectations this week. The Van Horn family was hit by a fire on Sunday night, and the home ended up being a total loss. The family's father, Michael, is the Mountain View football Touchdown Club president and the two sons in the family have played football at the school. Mountain View football officials set out to raise $4,000 through a GoFundMe campaign to help the family. As of Thursday night, the fundraising effort had raised $19,377 from 163 donations. The football team also held a donation drive, where people could donate clothing and gift cards to the family, for two hours on last Wednesday morning. A link to the Go Fund Me can be found on Gwinnett Daily Post dot com.   For anyone who thinks that one person can't effect a positive impact in multiple communities, meet Alessandra Ferrara-Miller, the founder of Forsyth County-based All For Lunch. Five years ago, the California native established All For Lunch Inc. in Suwanee to pay off the lunch debt for four elementary schools in the North Gwinnett Cluster. Ferrara-Miller's efforts have since blossomed throughout schools in the metro Atlanta area. In mid-December, Ferrara-Miller announced that her one-person nonprofit erased the lunchroom debt in more than 250 schools in Gwinnett, Fulton, Cobb, Barrow and Fayette counties. All For Lunch gave more than $130,000 to schools — including more than $75,000 in Gwinnett — so that families wouldn't go into the holiday season with outstanding school lunch debt. On December 19, Ferrara-Miller said she planned to meet with administrators in Forsyth County to eliminate lunch debt in more than 40 schools before the end of 2022. Ferrara-Miller said she got the idea to pay off school lunch debt after seeing a news report about a young student in Alabama who was sent home from school one day with a stamp on his arm that said, “I need lunch money.” A digital asset portfolio manager by day, Ferrara-Miller established All For Lunch (using the book “Nonprofits for Dummies” as a guide) and began her push to put a dent in the debt many families accrue in school cafeterias across the metro area. According to the Educational Data Initiative, more than 1.5 million students can't afford a school lunch, resulting in a school meal debt of some $250 million. More than three-quarters of the schools in the country have unpaid lunch debt and at the beginning of the 2022-23 school year, the free lunches that had been offered to students in the wake of the COVID pandemic were no longer offered. North Gwinnett grad Seth Anderson committed Sunday to the Iowa Hawkeyes football program. Anderson was a hot prospect in the transfer portal after a breakout 2022 season at Charleston Southern, where he earned Freshman All-American honors and was the Big South Conference Offensive Player of the Year as a redshirt freshman. The 6-foot, 178-pound wide receiver had 42 catches for 628 yards and seven touchdowns. Anderson, who earned second-team all-region honors and honorable mention all-county acclaim as a North senior in 2020, is the son of longtime NFL receiver Willie “Flipper” Anderson, whose 336 receiving yards against the Saints in 1989 is an NFL record. Seth chose the Hawkeyes over Georgia Tech, James Madison, and Appalachian State, among others. Iowa went 8-5 this season, with a 5-4 mark in the Big Ten. The Hawkeyes capped off their season Saturday with a 21-0 win over Kentucky in the Music City Bowl.  Gwinnett County officials are warning residents to be wary of anyone who shows up at their door claiming to work for the county's water department — because that person is an imposter. Officials said reports have been coming in to Gwinnett County Water Resources about someone trying to enter homes while claiming to work for a Gwinnett County lab. Most of the attempts have targeted Spanish-speaking families who live in the Norcross area. Residents are advised to not let anyone asking to test their water into their homes. They are also asked to call 9-1-1, especially if they don't feel safe or they think someone is trying to break into their home. They can also call the Department of Water Resource's 24-hour dispatch line if they have questions or concerns.  On January first of 2019 history was made as Gwinnett County Commissioner Marlene Fosque and school board member Everton Blair became the first African-Americans to serve on their respective boards. Four years later, they will both leave their respective offices this weekend. Saturday marked the last official day of Fosque's and Blair's terms of office. Blair opted to not seek re-election this year while Fosque's bid for a second term in the County Commission District 4 ended in defeat last month. At Fosque's last commission business meeting on December 13, she quoted Nelson Mandela as she reflected on her time in office. “He said, ‘What counts in life is not the mere fact that we have lived. It is what difference we have made to the lives of others that will determine the significance of the life we led,' Fosque said. “I hope and I pray that I made a difference in your lives as a commissioner, and I want you to know that you definitely made a difference — a positive, not just a difference but a positive difference — in my life and I thank you all.” Fosque and Blair were celebrated by their respective colleagues earlier this month, not only for the historic firsts that their elections represented, but also for the work they did on their respective boards. Fosque, for example, was hailed for her work on Project RESET and Project RESET 2.0, programs that she championed and helped get off the ground to help families with financial assistance to stay in their residences during the COVID-19 pandemic. Meanwhile, Blair received a plaque from Gwinnett County Public Schools Superintendent Calvin Watts during the school board's December meeting. Blair, who was the board's chairman in 2021, was recognized for bringing “innovation, the innovative ideas” and “valuable leadership input” to the board and for his commitment to the school system during Watts' presentation.

Tune in here to this episode of Grits, Guts, and Determination, The Leadville Race Series Podcast, a leading authority for all things Leadville! Host Cole Chlouber, son of race founder Ken Chlouber, takes us on a story-telling journey of the 38-year rich history of this race. We learn all the tips, tricks, and stories from the Leadville community members! Joining us today is Adrian Macdonald, who has won first place in the Leadville Trail 100 twice. On this episode, Adrian shares his experiences winning the Leadville Trail 100 race, his advice in the sport and how he found Leadville. To begin, Adrian tells how he began running during his sophomore year of high school, and fell in love with the self-improvement aspect of the sport and found it addicting. He started running longer distances and ran cross country in college at Gettysburg University in Pennsylvania. He ran his first marathon after college in the Gettysburg marathon and had a perfect first attempt. His time was 2:30 and it took him four years to beat his personal best in Houston. Adrian was living in Boston and they canceled the 2020 marathon a month out due to COVID. He still wanted to race, so he started competing in trail running and found his body did well with the elevation gains and losses. He then found Leadville and shared with his mentor, Nick Clark, that he wanted to compete in the 2021 race and he was very supportive, and volunteered to crew and pace for him. Next, Adrian shares how in his first Leadville Trail 100 race in 2021 that he was very aware of Cody Reed and Tyler Andrews- some of the other racers that were going after the record and setting the pace for the first half. He passed both of those racers and at 50 miles out, the race was very special to him after realizing that he was going to win. He was 35 minutes out on everyone else and he wanted to enjoy the last bit of the race and soak in the experience of winning. When Adrian returned to the Leadville 100 in 2022, he had a film crew and sponsors, but he says the most pressure he received was from himself. He won the 2022 Leadville Trail 100 as well, but he wasn't feeling as good during this race and spent about half of his time running and walking. The other competitors were supporting him and the crowd was cheering him by name and knew who he was. He has a film coming out on YouTube in the next few weeks called “Out and Back” by Rabbit Wolf Creative. You can also check Adrian's sponsors: Ultimate Direction for gear and On Running for shoes in the links below. Adrian continues his passion for running as a cross country coach at Mountain View High School in Loveland, CO. His goal is to create life-long runners, but he tells the kids they will have more fun if they run fast! He is also a financial officer at Colorado State University in the Department of Statistics and he gives back to the Leadville Running Community. Adrian's advice is to put yourself out there by meeting new people and going to new places. He says to enjoy the whole process of training for the Leadville 100 and that if you love what you're doing and having fun, then you will train harder for it and find people to share it with. Adrian states that the Leadville 100 was a life-changing moment for him and has opened up opportunities for him to meet new people and given him confidence. He finishes up the conversation by saying that Leadville really does change your life and feels like family. You can find Adrian racing in Australia in mid-December and potentially the UTMB next summer!

Vaping is impacting our schools. While we know that a majority of students are not vaping, the number who are need support. In Superintendent Steve Cook's latest podcast, he examines this topic alongside Becky Aylor, Assistant Principal at Mountain View High School, and Aimee Snyder, Prevention and Health Promotion Supervisor at Deschutes County. Together they discuss the size of the problem locally, the steps our schools are taking to help students and what we can all do to prevent vaping or intervene once a student has started.

On the Season 2 finale of SGV Weekly, we dive into “A People’s Seal of El Monte.” This gave students and residents in Monte the chance to design their own seal, “not for the city, but for all those who identify with the region and are inspired by El Monte’s history," according to project organizers SEMAP. The group has been a consistent voice against celebrating El Monte’s pioneer narrative for some time. Could it inspire people to make their own community based artworks? To answer that, we went to Alfred Mendoza’s ethnic studies class at Mountain View High School to see what his students would put in an El Monte Seal. These students spend just a few weeks out of one semester of ethnic studies reading SEMAP’s history book, East of East. With help from printmaker Daniel Gonzalez, we use this artwork as a jumping off point to talk about how people of color could reshape El Monte’s future.

In this episode, Cherise is joined by Kourtney Strong, AIA, CSI, CDT – Associate Principal from LSW Architects in Vancouver Washington. Kourtney shares insights into her work on the Mountain View High School Replacement in Vancouver, Washington. The design for Mt. View High School's new 275,000 sf building prioritizes visibility, safety, and student empowerment. To serve and consider all student needs and teaching/learning modalities, the building includes a rich variety of spatial typologies and environments. The intent is to create learning options that invite and empower students to participate and collaborate with one another and extend this across all spaces. With such a large campus, a key objective was to make the school's multifaceted learning environments visible and accessible to students. The goal was to build a sense of unity and personalization to the school by breaking its scale down into connected areas. To see project photos and details discussed, visit https://www.arcat.com/podcast (arcat.com/podcast) Ali Abbaszadegan, Senior Project Manager, AIA, ASLA at R&C Management Group LLC, provides additional insight from the owner's representative and project management perspective. Trevor Wyckoff, Vice President – Account Manager at Skanska USA Building Inc., shares his expertise to illustrate some of the unique elements that his team executed on the project, including tilt-up concrete walls and a checkered pattern polished concrete floor. This project provided unique challenges and opportunities - early team integration provided scheduling and coordination benefits, with students actively occupying site construction had added complexity, an early suggestion from the GC to implement tilt up concrete walls provided significant schedule and labor benefits, and much more.

The summer of 2012, Noelle and Janson decided that she would give it one last try to earn an Olympic medal, but only if their family could all travel together. Their dream became a reality February 14, 2014 as Noelle crossed the finish line, winning the silver medal at the Sochi, Russia Olympic Winter Games. The incredible moment was solidified as Noelle jumped into the stands to embrace her family while shouting, “We did it!”. In 2015, they added twin boys to their family.

The Alliance is still in its infancy but is intended to give Idaho basketball coaches and organized voice in regard to decisions by the state.

This week, SGV Connect looks at studies that examine how Pasadena is reimagining parking in its city and a community spurred project to upgrade and improve Parkway Drive in El Monte.   Pasadena has recently launched a study of its parking throughout the city. The study, which will wrap up in early 2021, is looking to create a multi-leveled policy that will address the needs of residents, businesses and the way they move and be adaptable to the areas districts and neighborhoods. “The policies we have been designed with the assumption that one size fits all, and that’s not always the case,” said Laura Cornejo, Pasadena's Director of Transportation “We want to make sure that we are providing the services that residents need even if it is at a micro-local level.” The study is also looking at the new COVID-19 reality on Pasadena’s streets and hope the findings could be used to support economic recovery, especially for businesses struggling during the pandemic.   Afterwards, Damien speaks with David Diaz, the director of Active SGV. Diaz has been working with students to advocate for a safer and better Parkway Drive in El Monte since 2015.   In 2015, students from Mountain View High School and community groups identified the need for improved street design for Parkway Drive that included better lighting, wayfinding signage, improved crosswalks, sidewalks, and bike lanes. Recently, Active SGV and the City of El Monte sponsored a survey to gather input on possible improvements to Parkway Drive. If you missed out and want to make your thoughts known, you can email the team at ParkwayDrive@activesgv.org.
