Goodbye summer: Tips for back-to-school success Come Aug. 27, school buses will be rolling again across eastern North Carolina as students head back to school for the 2018-19 school year. Schedules, supply lists, bus routes, new clothes are a given in back-toschool season. But that’s not all kids need for a successful new school year.

ROUTINES

Start now building a routine so children can adjust properly. This means structuring activities so kids know what to expect, including healthy

meals at the same time each day and a regular bedtime. Getting enough sleep is critical to students' well-being and ability to learn, says Dr. Suresh Kotagal, pediatric sleep expert at Mayo Clinic Children's Center. He suggests establishing a bedtime routine before school starts to help children fall asleep and get a good night's rest. He adds that children rest better if they skip caﬀeine after dinner, get regular exercise, turn oﬀ electronic devices an hour before bedtime, and

"Some kids are more anxious than others, and transitions like going back to school can be more difﬁcult for them," says Dr. Stephen Whiteside, psychiatrist with the Mayo Clinic Children's Center. "Talking to them and preparing them ahead of time by doing things such as visiting the schools and meeting teachers can be beneﬁcial."

BULLYING

One reason a child may have anxiety about heading back to school is he or she experienced bullying

previously. Before school starts, ask your child about their concerns. Learn about what happened and discuss how to respond if it happens again in the new school year (for example, walk away or get help from a trusted adult or peer). Build up your child's self-esteem so they have conﬁdence to handle diﬃcult situations. Finally, reach out to teachers to build a team mentality. By taking a few proactive steps now, both parents and children can be well prepared for the start of a great new school year.

Know the rules Free and reduced-price meal applications available now of the road August is Back to School Safety Month. The North Carolina Insurance Commissioner Mike Causey who also serves as the Chair for SafeKids NC, reminds students, parents, and motorists to use extra caution as students walk, drive, or ride the bus to school. On a typical school day, more than 14,000 school buses carrying nearly 800,000 students operate on North Carolina roads. “Passing a stopped school bus can result in injury or death to children.” Commissioner Causey encouraged all motorists to learn the rules of the road and watch for children walking to school or waiting by the roadside for a school bus. In most cases, vehicles must stop in either direction if the school bus stop sign is out, red lights are flashing, and the bus is stopped to load or unload passengers. In some cases, where a median or physical barrier divides the traffic going in different directions, or where a center turn lane separates a fourlane road, motorists traveling the opposite direction from the school bus are not required to stop. In addition to obeying the stopped school bus law a motorist should not block crosswalks and yield to pedestrians in crosswalks taking extra precaution in school zones. A motorist should never pass a vehicle stopped for pedestrians. Motorists should stop far enough back from a school bus to allow children room to safely enter and exit the bus. The area 10 feet

around a school bus is the most dangerous for children. The National Safety Council has released tips to help keep students safe. If your student walks to school they should walk on the sidewalk. If there is no sidewalk and they must walk in the street or road, walk facing traffic. Before crossing the street, stop and look left, right and left again to see if cars are coming. Never dart out in front of a parked car. Parents should Practice walking to school with their child, crossing streets or crosswalks when available. Students should never walk while texting or talking on the phone and they should not walk while using headphones. If your student rides their bike to school they should always wear a helmet that is fitted and secured properly. Teach them the rules of the road: Ride single file on the right side of the road, come to a complete stop before crossing the street and walk the bike across. Watch for opening car doors and other hazards. Use hand signals when turning and wear bright-colored clothing. If your child takes the bus to school teach your children the proper way to get on and off the bus. They should line up six feet away from the curb as the bus approaches. If seat belts are available, buckle up. They should wait for the bus to stop completely before standing. If your student must cross the road they should walk at least 10 feet in front of the bus.

State requires school children be immunized

North Carolina law requires all children in the state to receive certain immunizations. Records are checked when children enter school or child care. Every year, all public, private, charter and federal schools are required to report the immunization status of their students. To enter kindergarten, children are required to have the follow ing immunizations: Dtap , polio, MMR, Hib, Hep

B, varicella and PCV. Parents of rising seventh graders, children must receive TDAP and meningococcal meningitis vaccines. All students entering NC schools for the ﬁrst time must submit a completed North Carolina Health Assessment Transmittal Form. Provide your school nurse with your students health assessment and updated vaccination record. Check with your school for the correct form.

The North Carolina Department of Public Instruction recently announced its policy for the 2018-19 USDA free and reduced-price meals for children enrolled in state schools. The federally assisted school nutrition programs help ensure all students have access to wholesome, nutritious, appealing meals at school. “Research indicates access to healthful meals at school can enhance students’ overall health, well-being and academic performance,” said state Superintendent Mark Johnson. “Children who are hungry or poorly nourished have difficulty learning and do not perform as well in the classroom as students who are well-nourished. Healthful meals at school, coupled with a safe, student-focused learning environment, are top priorities in North Carolina because they help prepare students for success.” Household size and income criteria will be used to determine student eligibility for free and reduced price meal benefits. Children from households whose income is at or below the levels identified are eligible for free or reduced price meals. Children who are members of households that are eligible to receive Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) benefits or Cash Assistance (CA) are automatically eligible for free meals. SNAP/CA families will be certified by the determining official by direct certification. Foster children who are the legal responsibility of a social services agency or court are considered categorically eligible for free-meal benefits regardless of the income of the household with whom they reside. (Note: The SNAP was formerly known as the “Food Stamp” Program. In North Carolina, the SNAP is called “Food and Nutrition Services” or FNS. The CA program was formerly known as Temporary Assistance to Needy Families or TANF. Applications for free and reduced-price school meals are being made available to all households. Applications should be available in the principal’s office at each school. To apply for free or reduced-price meals, house¬holds must complete the application and return it to the school or to the School Nutrition Office within the school district, charter school, non-public school or other institution participating

in the National School Lunch Program. The information provided on the application for free and reduced-price meal benefits will be used to determine student’s eligibility for free or reduced-price meals. Families receiving FNS or CA do not need to complete an application because they are automatically certified by the determining official via direct certification. For school officials to determine eligibility for free and reduced-price benefits, an adult household member must sign the application. Applications must include the names of all household members, the amount and source of income received by each household member, and the last four digits of the social security number of the adult household member who signs the application. If the household member signing the application does not have a social security number, he or she must indicate that a social security number is not available. All applications for free and reduced-price meal benefits are subject to verification of income at any time during the school year by school or other program officials. Under the provisions of the free and reduced-price policy, the School Nutrition Administrator or designee in each school district will review applications and determine eligibility. Parents or guardians dissatisfied with the ruling of the official may wish to discuss the decision with the determining official on an informal basis. Parents wishing to make a formal appeal for a hearing on the decision may make a request either orally or in writing to the school district, charter school, non-public school or other participating institution. If a household member becomes unemployed or if the household size increases, the household should contact the school. Such changes may qualify children of the household for school meals benefits if the household’s income falls at or below the levels shown above. Some of the most common questions and answers about free and reduced-price meals are addressed below: Who can receive free and reduced-price meals? • All children in households receiving benefits from Food and Nutrition Services (FNS, formerly known as Food Stamps), the

Food Distribution Program on Indian Reservations (FDPIR) or Cash Assistance (CA), are eligible for free meals. • Foster children who are under the legal responsibility of a foster-care agency or court are eligible for free meals. • Children participating in their school’s federally funded Head Start program are eligible for free meals. • Children who meet the definition of homeless, runaway, or migrant are eligible for free meals. • Children may receive free or reduced-price meals if the income of their household is within the limits on the federal Income Eligibility Guidelines. How do I know if my children qualify as homeless, migrant, or runaway? Do the members of your household lack a permanent address? Are you staying together in a shelter, hotel, or other temporary housing arrangement? Does your family relocate on a seasonal basis? Are any children living with you chosen to leave their prior family or household? If you believe children in your household meet these descriptions and you have not been told your children will receive free meals, please contact your Local Education Agency (LEA). Do I need to fill out an application for each child? No. Use one Free and Reduced Price School Meals Application for all students in your household. The household application cannot be approved if the application is not complete, so be sure to provide all required information. Should I fill out an application if I received a letter this school year saying my children are already approved for free meals? No, but please read the letter you got carefully and follow the instructions. If any children in your household were missing from your eligibility notification, contact the School Nutrition Administrator in your school district immediately. Can I apply online? Yes! You are encouraged to complete an online application, instead of a paper application, if you are able. The online application has the same requirements and will ask you for the same information as a paper application. My child’s application was approved last year. Do I need to fill out a new one? Yes. Your child’s application is only good for that school year

MEALS From 1C and for the first few days of this school year. You must send in a new application unless the school told you that your child is eligible for the new school year. If you do not send in a new application that is approved by the school or you have not been notified that your child is eligible for free meals, your child will be charged the full price for meals. I get WIC. Can my children get free meals? Children in households participating in WIC

THE COASTLAND TIMES may be eligible for free or reduced price meals. Please send in an application. Will the information I give be checked? Yes. We may also ask you to send written proof of the household income you report. If I don’t qualify now, may I apply later? Yes, you may apply at any time during the school year. For example, children with a parent or guardian who becomes unemployed may become eligible for free and reduced-price meals if the household income drops below the income limit. What if I disagree with the school’s

CURRITUCK

decision about my application? You should talk to the district’s School Nutrition Administrator or you also may ask for a hearing by calling or writing to the School Nutrition Office. May I apply if someone in my household is not a US citizen? Yes. You, your children, or other household members do not have to be U.S. citizens to apply for free or reduced-price meals. What if my income is not always the same? List the amount that you normally receive. For example, if you normally make $1000 each month, but you missed some work

last month and only made $900, put down that you made $1000 per month. If you normally get overtime, include it, but do not include it if you only work overtime sometimes. If you have lost a job or had your hours or wages reduced, use your current income. What if some household members have no income to report? Household members may not receive some types of income we ask you to report on the application, or may not receive income at all. Whenever this happens, please write a zero (O) in the field. However, if any income fields are left empty or blank, those

will also be counted as zeroes. Please be careful when leaving income fields blank, as we will assume you meant to do so. We are in the military. Do we report our income differently? Your basic pay and cash bonuses must be reported as income. If you get any cash-value allowances for off-base housing, food, or clothing, it must also be included as income. However, if your housing is part of the Military Housing Privatization Initiative, do not include your housing allowance as income. Any additional combat pay resulting from deployment is also excluded from income.

My family needs more help. Are there other programs we might apply for? To find out how to apply for Food and Nutrition Services (FNS, formerly Food Stamps) or other assistance benefits, contact your local assistance office or call The Careline at 1-800-662-7030. For more information, contact the School Nutrition Services of the North Carolina Department of Public Instruction at 919807-3506 or contact the School Nutrition Administrator in the school district, charter school or non-public school of other participating institution in which your child is enrolled.

New leaders start with new school year On Aug. 27, more than 4,000 students will return to Currituck County public schools for the new school year. The county employs 252 teachers, for a student-teacher ratio of about 16 to one. For the 2018-19 school year, Currituck County High School welcomes Dr. Brian Matney as the new principal. Dr. Matney comes to Currituck County High School with over 25 years of administrative experience. Most recently, he served as the director of secondary education for Mecklenburg County public schools in Virginia. Prior to that position, Matney served as principal at both Landstown High School and Cox High School in

Virginia Beach. During his career, Matney’s accomplishments include being named the Commonwealth of Virginia’s Principal of the Year (2006), bringing a Governor’s STEM Academy to Landstown High School (only the second one to be housed within a traditional high school in Virginia), and certifying as a lead evaluator with Advance ED to assist schools with the accreditation process. Michelle Cowan has been named principal of Currituck County Middle School. Cowan is entering her 17th year as an educator. As a military wife, she has had the opportunity to live and work many places. She began her career as an

elementary school teacher in metro Atlanta after graduating from North Georgia College in 1995. From there, the military carried her family to Texas, Tennessee, Alabama and California where she continued to teach in elementary schools. Her most recent move has brought her to Currituck County Middle School. At CCMS, Cowan taught seventh and eighth grade language arts. During the 2017-18 school year Cowan moved into the role of assistant principal and then to interim principal after Dr. Matt Lutz was promoted to assistant superintendent. Sandra Reynolds takes over the position of chief

information officer for Currituck County Schools after Paul O’Briant’s retirement. Reynolds has more than 22 years of educational experience. All but one of those years have been in Currituck, the same district she grew up in. She has served as a classroom teacher, instructional coach, and AIG teacher. Reynolds holds a master’s degree in school administration from East Carolina Universit y. During her time with Currituck County schools she has earned recognition for outstanding teacher leadership, delivery of high quality professional development and integration of technology.

New names, titles for start of school year

When the buses roll Aug. 27, Dare County schools will welcome back more than 5,000 students. And there will be some new faces, and familiar ones with different titles, among the administration this school year. In the schools’ central office, Arty Tillett and Sandy Kinzel are now assistant superintendents. Tillett’s previous job title was chief academic officer. Kinzel’s was executive director of elementary education. Effective July 1, David Guiley retired from the principalship at First Flight Middle School and Diane Childress has been

appointed principal. Two people have been named assistant principals at First Flight Middle: Chuck Lansing and Curtis Price. Tenia Maurer has been appointed assistant principal at Manteo Middle School and Shannon Castillo will be assistant principal at Manteo Elementary School. Paul Marshall was named to a position titled director of school performance. Paul Kinsey is now testing coordinator. The term for all appointments is July 1 through June 30, 2022. There will also be a

facelift for Manteo High School, with a $731,000 project to replace the metal roof and supporting walls. Facilities director Russ Gurganus told the board the project will take ﬁve months to overlay all of the existing roof with new metal. The new roof comes with a 40-year guarantee. The noisy part will be drilling 2,000 to 3,000 screws into the new structure. Gurganus said the company will be asked to work weekends over some portions of the high school so as to limit construction impact. And for the beginning

of the 2018-2018 school year, a convocation for all staff members will be held Aug. 21 at First Flight High gymnasium. Professional learning is scheduled for Aug. 22. Farrelly said dual language teachers arrive Aug. 10. A reception is set for noon. Kindergarten and first grade classes will be offered at Kitty Hawk Elementary, Nags Head, Cape Hatteras and Manteo. Farrelly said he never anticipated four sites, which he is said is a first for the state. The program has lowered class sizes in kindergarten and first grade classes.

School bus safety a priority in Dare by Gregory Clark greg.clark@thecoastlandtimes.com

In Dare County there are 40 regular route buses with 16 buses doing “double runs” to transport students to and from the counties 10 elementary, middle and high schools. Dare schools also provide 15 activity buses for ﬁeld trips and sporting events. It’s transportation supervisor Alex Chandler’s job to keep the buses on the road, in good shape and transporting students safely. Last school year, school buses ran a total of half a million miles accident free. Dare Transportation Department has received North Carolina’s best safety score during

Private, charter schools ready for new year The Outer Banks’ private schools and only charter school are registering new students, gathering supplies and working to get ready for the new year. Water’s Edge Village School provides local education to Currituck’s northern beaches. The school, a public, K-8, accredited charter school in Corolla, is in its sixth year and employs four highly-qualiﬁed teachers. There are currently 38 students enrolled, about 70 percent from Currituck and 30 percent from Dare County. Enrollment is by lottery. For more information, see watersedgevillageschool.com Wanchese Christian Academy in Wanchese is beginning its 40th year of educating local children. Enrollment is happening now and continues until the start of school on Aug. 27. The school’s educational strategies are based on sound scholarship, common sense and the word of God. For more information, see wanchesechristianacademy.com The Heron Pond Montessori School in Nags Head oﬀers infant, preschool, elementary and middle school education following the Montessori method. The school is hosting an open house Aug. 15, 6-7 p.m. for the families of currently enrolled students and those who may be considering Montessori for their children in the future.

annual Department of Public Inspections five times since 2008 including the 2017/2018 school year. For a student to ride the school bus they must first be pre-registered. Registration forms can be found at the Dare County School website, daretolearn.org under the subheadings Departments and Transportation. Once the form is submitted, it will take about three days to be processed. Once approved, the student will be assigned a bus number and bus stop location. Younger riders, kindergarten through third grade, must have an adult present when being dropped off by a school bus. If parents wish to have their child

get oﬀ the bus with an older sibling, the school must have a note signed by the parent. If no adult is present, the driver will notify the school that the child will be returning to the school. Keeping buses running and in good shape isn’t Chandler’s only safety concern. He worries about drivers who ignore stopped school buses. “I would urge the general public to pay attention to school buses. 14 children have be killed at bus stops in NC since 1998. NC schools transport over 770,000 student each day. In NC alone there are over 3000 stop-arm violations per day.”

The school website also has tips for walking to and from the designated bus stop. The tips suggest you should walk your young child to the bus stop and have older children walk in groups, allow extra time in the morning to get to your bus on time and wear bright clothing so the bus can see you in the early morning and late evening. Make sure your child stands at least 10 feet from the road while waiting for the bus. Remind children to look to the right before they step oﬀ the bus. Drivers in a hurry sometimes try to sneak by buses on the right. For a complete list of school bus safety tips visit www.daretolearn.org

Welcome from the superintendent Dare County families, Welcome to the 20182019 school year! What an exciting time to be a learner in Dare County schools! In classrooms all across our district, teachers are diligently preparing for the arrival of students. Our principals and district leaders have spent the summer planning and preparing to lead our schools with cutting-edge, innovative strategies. Our focus is and will remain, on our students. I am proud to serve as your superintendent. During my first year in Dare County, I met with hundreds of parents and community members through 40 visioning meetings. I also met with staff and students to gain their insights on how we can improve our schools. In every session, I asked a simple question: “What are your hopes and dreams for our students?” With every answer, I heard passionate and thought-provoking responses. It is clear to me that our parents, educators, and community

members care deeply about the success of our schools. Your ideas h ave become t he Farrelly f ou nd at ion of the new Dare County schools strategic plan, which will launch in the coming months and provide a blueprint for our work over the next three years. I would like to invite you to attend your school’s open house. The exact date and time can be found on the school’s website. At open house, you can receive information on bus routes, registration for school, class schedules and supply lists. You will also have a chance to meet our excellent teachers and school leaders.

Extension’s 4-H Program. Since being launched in April of 2011, this program has been providing nutritious meals each weekend throughout the school year for students who are identified by school staff as being food insecure. Backpacks For Kids is supported 100% through community donations, corporate donations, and grant funds. Volunteers from the community, including deputies from the Currituck Sheriff’s Office, help make delivery of the food possible. Each child receives enough food for six full meals, including cereal or Poptarts, a protein

source such as tuna ﬁsh or beef stew, peanut butter, canned vegetables and fruit, soup, juice boxes and a snack such as peanut butter crackers or yogurt snacks. Through this program, children at-risk of hunger can receive adequate nutrition in a safe and easily accessible setting. The program typically serves approximately 100 Currituck County students each week. How can you help? Monetary donations are needed. Approximate cost to feed one child monthly is twenty dollars. Citizens can visit the 4-H Backpacks for Kids website for details about the program,
