RALEIGH COUNTY TEACHERS USE TCR CONNECTIONS TO ALIGN TECHNOLOGY, CURRICULUM WITH STATE GOALS AND OBJECTIVES TCR Uses Primary Source Information To Help Teachers Integrate Technology across the Curriculum and Build Students' Problem Solving Skills (Beckley, W.Va.) Adding Web-based resources to classrooms is a great way to create cutting-edge learning opportunities for students. Without the right tools, however, it can also be a great way to create more work for teachers, who must scour the seemingly infinite Internet to locate relevant, appropriate information for their students; connect the information with their curriculum; and then align the Web-based lessons and activities with existing standards and objectives. Is it any wonder some teachers resist adding new technologies to their classes?

Government Relations: Legislative Update Accessing Your Legislature January 24, 2003 Tobacco Tax Under Consideration in the Senate Finance Committee Freezing Step Six of the School Aid Formula Tobacco Tax Under Consideration in the Senate Finance Committee Raising the tobacco tax will provide the most effective deterrent to keep teenagers from ever starting to smoke. In addition, it will raise needed revenues for the state. If we raised the tobacco tax by $1 per pack, estimates say it would prevent over 28,000 students from ever beginning to smoke. If these students began smoking, one-third of them would die prematurely as a result of smoking. A proposal to place the tax on tobacco as a percentage of wholesale price of tobacco products (cigarettes, cigars, smokeless tobacco, etc.) rather than placing the tax on a fixed cents per pack of cigarettes is gaining support. This concept allows the tax to increase as the price of tobacco products increases. You can e-mail the Senators by going to www.legis.state.wv.us

GOOD NEWS Department Communities, Parents and Schools Fight the "Gay" Agenda Brainwashing "Civil Rights Teams" Abandoned by West Virginia Attorney General's Office A controversial program that trained students as young as sixth grade to report peers for verbal comments criticizing homosexuality has been scrapped by the state of West Virginia. A group of persistent pro-family activists were successfully led by Kevin McCoy, president of West Virginia Family Foundation, in bringing this program to light and seeing it come to a halt. The attorney general's office had instituted the program and trained students in about 20 public schools in the state. Students were told that peers who used "slurs" against homosexuality could become potential harassers and should be reported to, so they could be monitored by, authorities. At an October state school board meeting, hundreds of parents turned out to protest the program. GLSEN Opponents to Serve on Broward County (FL) Diversity Committee The latest appointees to a committee on diversity of the Broward County (FL) School Board have said they oppose the current contract the district has with GLSEN, the Gay, Lesbian, Straight Education Network. One of the two new members is Steve Kane, a conservative radio talk show host who was very outspoken last year as the GLSEN proposal was being considered. The contract allows GLSEN, which supports "gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgendered" behavior even for elementary schoolers, to train teachers to recognize what they consider to be intolerance and "harassment." Opponents believed this was another propaganda tool to force acceptance of these lifestyles on children.

It's continued population and job growth are the reasons, but the effects are unclear. "The real question is how large of an impact," said George Hammond , director of the West Virginia Economic Outlook at West Virginia University 's Bureau of Business and Economic Research . "I doubt it hurts." The state already has seven MSAs, but only Charleston is totally within the state. Huntington, Wheeling, Weirton, Berkeley and Jefferson Counties, Park-ersburg and Mineral County are included in outside MSAs, which means Morgan-town would be only the second in-state metro area.

I General George Crook "Crook never lied to us. His words gave the people hope." Lakota Chief Red Cloud General George Crook, considered by many of his contemporaries, and historians alike to be the US Army's most skilled Indian fighter, respected Native Americans as valiant foes who deserved to be treated fairly and humanely in defeat. Early Years Born near Dayton, Ohio, September 8, 1828, George Crook graduated near the bottom of his class from the US Military Academy at West Point in 1852. As a young lieutenant in Oregon and California, he received his first experience with Indians and saw first-hand how they were betrayed when the US Senate rejected 18 negotiated treaties, leaving them with no rights. "When they were pushed beyond endurance and would go on the warpath, we had to fight when our sympathies were with the Indians." Crook later said. Nevertheless, he led successful campaigns against the Shoshone and Nez Perce and others in Washington, Oregon and California. The outbreak of the Civil War in 1861 brought Crook back to the East, where he was promoted to captain and served in guerrilla actions in West Virginia at the battles of Second Bull Run and Chickamauga. He was breveted Major General of Volunteers in July 1864 and was put in command of the Army of West Virginia, taking part in General Philip Henry Sheridan's Shenandoah Valley campaign. In late February 1865, he was captured by Confederate guerrillas but was exchanged the next month.
