The second annual Wilson
County Schools Back-to-School
Fair is today from 9 a.m. to
noon on the grounds of Jones
Elementary School. Every staff
member and school family is
invited to attend the event to
kick off the 2013-2014 school
year. At the event, families can
ask questions of Wilson County
Schools staff, learn about
school system programs and
operations, access information
about community resources,
enjoy entertainment, games
and food and register to win
prizes. Free backpacks are
available to students in need on
a first-come, first-serve basis.
Students must be in attendance
in order to receive a backpack.
“We are so excited about the
Wilson County Schools Back-
to-School Fair,” said Amber
Whitley, director of public
relations. “It is the perfect way
to kick off a new school year.
This is the place where families
can find out anything they need
to know about our schools and
departments while also having
a good time. This is a great
first step for families to make
face-to-face connections with
Wilson County Schools staff.
We want our families to know
that we are available to answer
any questions and help them
with whatever they need not
only at this event but through-
out the school year.”
School families attending
the fair must enter through the
main doors at Jones Elementa-
ry and proceed to the grounds
behind the school. School
families in need of backpacks
should enter the school from
the right wing entrance. A tent
and signage will direct families
to this area. Doors open at 9
a.m. Because this is an outdoor
event, free water is available.
Concessions and soft drinks
will also be for sale. In the
event of rain, the fair will be
moved inside the building.
Important information is
available for families attend-
ing the fair. Under the main
tent, every school will have an
information booth. Informa-
tion about these topics will also
be available: Student Services,
English as a Second Language,
Exceptional Children, Career
and Technical Education, ath-
letics, Parent Academy meet-
ings, safety and security up-
dates, before and after school
care, Drivers Education, AVID,
IB, bus routes, free and reduced
lunch and school enrollment.
Twenty-nine community
agencies also have information
booths at the event. They are:
Tang Soo Do Karate Center,

The backpacks are

the overwhelming sup-

Wilson County Schools
has collected roughly
3,300 backpacks, and
the number continues to
rise. The school system

supplies turned in after
the fair will be distrib-
uted to students once
the school year begins.
has a student population
of 12,500 and more than
half of those students
are identified as being
economically disadvan-
taged.
“While the backpack
piece of this event is
crucial, our hope is to
see more people at-
tend for the other great
components of the fair
including the extensive
information about our
schools that is available,”
said Superintendent
Sean Bulson. “Last
year’s Back-to-School
Fair was an incredible
success. More than
5,000 people attended
and were able to learn
more about our school
system and different
services offered by orga-
nizations in our com-
munity. We also gave
out 2,400 backpacks to
students in need, and we
are so grateful to all of
the individuals and busi-
nesses that made that
possible.”
Community members
and Wilson County
Schools staff also play a
large role in the plan-
ning of the event under
the direction of Mr. Bul-
son. At the event, more
than 100 Wilson County
Schools staff members
and students volunteer
along with members of
the community.

The Wilson County
Board of Education
respects a student’s right
to choose his or her style
of dress or appearance.
However, students are ex-
pected to adhere to stan-
dards of cleanliness and
dress that are compatible
with the requirement of a
good school environment.
If a student’s dress or
lack of cleanliness is such
that it constitutes a threat
to health or safety, the
principal or principal’s
designee may require
the student and student’s
parent or guardian to
take appropriate action
to remedy the situation.
In addition, if a student’s
dress or appearance is so
unusual, inappropriate or
lacking in cleanliness that
it clearly disrupts class
or learning activities, the
student may be required
to change his or her dress
or appearance.
Student violations
of this policy shall be
handled by the principal
or principal’s designee.
Violation of this policy
shall be a Level One viola-
tion of Policy 6400 and
the penalty shall be the
same as any other Level
One violation.
STUDENT DRESS, APPEARANCE
Principals will main-
tain guidelines to assist
students in determining
appropriate dress and
appearance for school,
copies of which will be
made available to parents
and students. Items listed
below shall be included in
all school guidelines and
shall apply to all students.
Reasonable accommoda-
tions will be made by the
school principal or prin-
cipal’s designee for those
students who, because of
a sincerely held religious
belief, cultural heritage or
medical reason, request
a waiver of a particular
guideline for dress or
appearance. The superin-
tendent shall establish ap-
propriate procedures and
regulations for requests
and disposition of waiver
requests. Accommoda-
tions shall be made by the
principal to accommo-
date students involved in
special duties, vocational
classes and projects,
special events or other
activities that would allow
for nonconforming dress
on a school campus.
• Clothing and appear-
ance must be age ap-
propriate, not disruptive
to the teaching- learning
process and cannot be
provocative, indecent,
vulgar or obscene.
• Hats, sweatbands,
bandannas or sunglasses
will not be worn inside
the school buildings.
• Shorts must be of ad-
equate length to reach
the ends of one’s
fingertips when the
student is standing
and the arms are by
one’s sides.
• Skirts and
dresses must be no
higher than three
(3) inches above
the top of the knee.
• Clothing will not
be allowed which
promotes alcoholic
beverages, tobacco or
the use of controlled sub-
stances, depicts violence,
profanity, vulgarity or
obscenity, is of a sexual
nature or is of a disruptive
nature.
• Shirts and blouses
must cover the waist and
midriff and go past the
waistline. Tank tops or
spaghetti-strap tops may
not be worn as an outer
garment.
• Footwear is required.
Bedroom shoes are not
allowed. Students in labo-
ratory or shop environ-
ments must wear closed-
toe shoes. Students in
physical education classes
must wear athletic shoes.
Shoes that have laces
must be laced and tied.
• Clothing is not to be
sheer or mesh and cannot
have excessive holes.
• Undergarments are
not to be visible.
• Clothing must be worn
appropriately (nothing
inside-out or backwards,
no rolled-up pant legs
or unfastened bibbed
overalls, no sagging pants,
belts must be buckled
and worn at the waistline,
etc.).
• Clothing will not be al-
lowed that is intentionally
shredded or torn.
• Tight clothing such as
knit or spandex bicycle/
biker pants or overly tight
pants is not allowed.
• Students shall not
wear clothing articles
with the intent to convey
membership or affiliation
in a gang.
UNIFORM STUDENT CLOTHING
The Board of Educa-
tion authorizes schools
to implement programs
in which students are
required to wear uniform
clothing at school during
the regular school day.
The required wearing of
uniform school clothing is
intended to allow students
to focus on instructional
objectives of the school,
favorably impact student
attitude, promote har-
mony among students
and enhance the image of
the school. Each school’s
plan for uniform school
clothing must be devel-
oped and approved ac-
cording to the procedures
and timeline set forth in
this policy. The Superin-
tendent must approve all
such plans before they
are implemented at the
school level.
Approval Process
When a principal and
School Leadership Team
(SLT) have decided to
develop a plan for uni-
form school clothing for
their school, the principal
shall notify the Superin-
tendent that their school
has begun this process
and submit a proposed
timeline.
When
the proposed
plan has been finalized by
the SLT and principal, but
before surveys are con-
ducted, the principal must
submit the proposed plan
to the Superintendent for
a preliminary review.
Upon completion of
the survey, the principal
shall forward the survey
results to the Superinten-
dent. The Superintendent
shall review and approve
proposed plans that meet
the requirements of this
policy.
School plans will be
implemented at the
beginning of the school
year. Final approval by
the Superintendent of the
proposed plan must be
obtained a minimum of
six months prior to the
first day of the school
year in which the plan
will be implemented.
Notification of parents of
the implementation of a
plan for uniform student
clothing must be provided
to parents within five (5)
days of the Superinten-
dent’s approval.
Planning
Each SLT and princi-
pal shall work together
to develop the school’s
proposed plan.
The proposed plan must
address the expected ef-
fects of the plan on:
• Safety
• School spirit
• Student discipline
• School identity
• Other effects
The proposed plan
must address the
following elements
of uniform clothing
design:
• Colors
• Logos (may be
added to individual
articles of clothing)
• Particular articles
of clothing (e.g. skirts,
shorts, slacks, shirts,
vests, jackets, accesso-
ries)
The proposed plan must
address the following:
• How clothing will be
made available for low
income students
• Accommodations for
students for whom wear-
ing particular attire is part
of their religious practice
• Accommodations for
students whose health
would be adversely af-
fected by wearing the
uniform clothing
• Procedures to allow
students to wear or dis-
play accessory items that
do not contribute to dis-
ruption or interfere with
discipline or the rights of
others
• Connection with the
school’s discipline and
character education plans
• Penalties for non-
compliance
• Involvement of
various parent groups in
promoting the plan
• Timing of implemen-
tation
Parent Surveys
After developing the
proposed plan accord-
ing to this policy, parents
must be surveyed.
The parents/guardians
of each student currently
enrolled in a school must
be given the opportunity
to agree or disagree with
the implementation of the
proposed plan through a
paper survey form. One
survey form per family
will be provided regard-
less of the number of
children enrolled in the
school.
In order for the pro-
posed plan to proceed
forward in the approval
process, 70% of the
potential respondents
must register a response
and, of those who re-
spond, 65% must indicate
their agreement with the
proposed plan. Failure to
obtain a response level or
level of agreement equal
to or greater than the per-
centages above stops the
process for that school
year. Principals and
school leadership teams
may consider developing
a plan for uniform cloth-
ing each year.
Review of Plans
The principal and SLT
of schools that implement
uniform school clothing
plans will evaluate the
plans and will survey
parents/guardians at least
every 5 years to deter-
mine if continued interest
in the plan exists.   In or-
der for the plan to con-
tinue, 70% of the potential
respondents must register
a response and, of those
who respond, 65% must
indicate their support for
continuing the plan.

Problems have solu-
tions. Wilson County
Schools wants to help
you find one if a problem
crops up.
The correct place to
start when you’re look-
ing for an answer is
on the first step of the
administrative ladder.
Talk with the individual
closest to your problem
first and right away –
the teacher in most in-
stances. If your concern
cannot be addressed to
your satisfaction, climb
the next step and talk to
the principal. Most prob-
lems meet an equitable
solution here.
Still not the answer
you’re seeking? Go up
another rung; call the
Central Office. Ask for
the executive director
who supervises the grade
level at which the prob-
lem has occurred – el-
ementary, middle or high
school. Still not content?
Call the Central Office
again and climb higher.
Ask for the assistant su-
perintendent responsible
for your school. Doesn’t
work there either?
That’s very rare.
Now it’s time to call the
superintendent. But to
reach that top step, be
sure to have four impor-
tant ‘yes’ answers ready.
Have you talked with the
teacher, principal, execu-
tive director and assis-
tant superintendent?
It’s that easy … in that
order. Step by step. Just
climb the ladder.

Goodnews
aboutbadweather
Here’s some good
news about bad weather.
When the skies are brew-
ing snow and freezing
rain this winter or when
severe weather threat-
ens at anytime, Wilson
County Schools’ families
should listen for the tele-
phone to ring with the
latest news about school
closings or delays.
Whenever weather
requires a change in the
school schedule, an au-
tomated communication
system will dial school
families and deliver the
news. The system will
call telephone numbers
gathered from the data-
base at each school.
Missed the call? Check
your answering machine
or turn to television
or radio for the latest
weather-related informa-
tion. No call means the
system does not have
your correct phone num-
ber.
Calls to families and to
television and radio sta-
tions about changes to
the school day generally
will be made by 5:30 a.m.
However, if the weather
requires an earlier deci-
sion, information will
be distributed by 7 p.m.
when school is to be
closed or delayed the fol-
lowing day.
To ensure that you get
a bad-weather call, make
certain that your phone
numbers listed at school
are current. Calls will
not be made when school
operates on a regular
schedule.

The Wilson Youth Coun-
cil documented more than
4,300 volunteer service
hours by its members dur-
ing the past 12 months.
The total number was
shared with members dur-
ing a recent bowling night
social to celebrate summer
and catch up with alumni
members. While some
members were shocked
at the high number, others
were not surprised at all.
“Volunteering is one of
the main reasons I joined
the youth council,” said
Terrell Saunders, the
newly elected Service Proj-
ect Chair and rising senior
at Wilson Early College
Academy. “We have a dif-
ferent project each month,
and it was always fun too. I
knew we did a lot last year,
but didn’t realize just how
much.”
The purpose behind all
this volunteering is to de-
velop leadership skills. Vol-
unteering is the top priority
of the council to allow for
a wide variety of teens the
opportunity to learn about
leadership styles and meth-
ods. They explore person-
ality differences, organiza-
tional processes and reflect
after each project on what
should be repeated and
what needs to be changed
before the next project.
The projects also help
teens fill other goals. Many
of the council members
use the organized volun-
teer project to fulfill hours
required by the National
Honor Society, to apply for
scholarship and as their
Senior project.
“The key to keeping this
group motivated is allow-
ing them to be responsible
for the projects,” said
Theresa Mathis, the WYC
advisor. “We have a captain
for each project, leaders
and followers. Everyone
has to arrive early, and help
set up, and no one leaves
until the cleanup is done.
They learn from start-to-
finish how to manage a
project, how to give back to
the community and all the
while having fun.”
The members of the
Wilson Youth Council have
volunteered monthly for
the past six years. The
group has become a per-
manent fixture at several
of the area community
events, including the Wil-
son County Fair, the Wilson
Whirligig Festival, the MLK
Breakfast and the Special
Olympics spring games.
These annual events de-
pend on the WYC teen
volunteers for everything
from simple tasks to high
levels of coordination.
cil won “2013 Volunteers
of the Year” recognition by
the NC Festival & Events
Association for their five
years of dedication at the
Wilson Whirligig Festival.
The teens are the only vol-
unteers in the Whirli-kidz
Zone. They manage the
rides, the arts and crafts
and keep the lines in order.
Approximately 100 teens
volunteers throughout the
2-day festival.
In addition to service
projects, the WYC pro-
motes anti-bullying aware-
ness through its “SMH@
BULLYING” campaign
and members attend five
NC State Youth Confer-
ences during the school
year.
cil is a teen action group
dedicated to community
service and leadership de-
velopment. In 2012, it was
recognized at the “Most
Diverse NC Youth Coun-
cil.” It was awarded “Most
Outstanding NC Youth
Council” in both 2011 &
2008. The council is open
to all high school members
every fall. Membership is
free, but requires action
and dedication to join. The
WYC Open House will be
on Tuesday, September 3
at 6:30 p.m. in the Wilson
County Library. To learn

Wilson Human Relations
Office, visit the council’s

“We learn and we create.” When a fifth-grade student
shared those words with me two years ago during
my first year as the superintendent, I knew he was
on to something. I had asked Israel what he thought
a student’s purpose was in school, and I thought his
five word answer summed it up perfectly. What Israel
captured is that beyond learning, students create new
knowledge. Israel’s words became the theme of our
2012-2013 school year and resonated so deeply with
staff and students that we decided to build on this
theme for the 2013-2014 school year: Learn. Create.
Inspire.
Wilson County Schools employs an amazing staff
of educators who inspire me each day. During our
Opening Day Rally for employees on Aug. 21, we will
feature the inspiring stories of six educators, includ-
ing Jennifer Parker, eighth-grade teacher at Darden
Middle; Jay Wheeler, Spanish teacher at Fike High; Jose Ramos, teacher assistant at Jones
Elementary; Debra Simons, fourth-grade teacher at New Hope Elementary; James Cooper,
custodian at Barnes Elementary and Bettena Adams-Artis, counselor at Beddingfield High.
Thinking about our teachers, it is easy to produce inspirational stories about their work and
the many creative ways they bring their teaching to life. However, those of us who have spent
time in schools quickly realize how inspirational students can be as well. As this new school
year begins, I want to encourage students to realize their full potential and really think about
why they are in school, just as Israel did. Wilson County is full of students who have made
positive changes in our community and who realize the impact that just one person can have.
School is not just about remembering facts. It is about fostering creativity and a sense of
inquiry, and seeing things in new ways. Across the world, people are creating new knowledge
every day at a staggering rate. Technology makes this possible, and our students must learn
to create new ideas rather than just absorb them. While the importance of teaching critical
thinking is not new to educators, our schools spent a great deal of time last year focusing on
what it means to teach students to think critically.

I am looking forward to the new school year and hope all of you are as well. We have spent
the last year learning from the community about how we can better serve our students and
our families. We rely on your continued feedback and participation at our school and com-
munity events to ensure our schools represent a partnership between parents, students, the
community and school system employees to support student learning and prepare them for
the exciting futures and fulfilling lives. If the level of support and engagement I have expe-
rienced in the year I have been here continues, we will do great things as a team for our
students. Enjoy the school year!

Lunch box nutri-
tion has come a long
way from bologna
on white bread with
a juice drink pouch.
As parents get ready
to send their kids
back to school, an
easy lesson on lunch
box nutrition may
be just the thing to
help kids get to the
head of the class.
Packing a winning
lunch is not only
about health and
nutrition, but also
about keeping food
fresh and appetizing for
kids.
“A nutritious lunch pro-
vides important nutrients
kids need throughout the
day,” says Mona Rosene,
registered dietitian with a
master of science degree
in nutrition, and nutri-
tion research scientist for
WhiteWave Foods. “For
parents who think pack-
ing a balanced and afford-
able lunch is a chore, a
little preparation can go a
long way in making lunch
box planning a breeze.
Parents should focus on
fresh foods and be label-
conscious. With so many
convenient lunch options,
it’s important to check
labels to avoid products
with empty calories and
little nutritional value.”
For parents on the go
and on a budget, here
are “Lunch Box 101 Tips
& Tricks” from TruMoo
Milk Boxes to help make
lunchtime less stressful
and more nutritious for
their kids.
1. Instead of a juice
drink pouch, opt for a
flavored shelf-stable milk
box, which provides all
the benefits of milk in-
cluding 8 grams of pro-
tein, vitamins A and D,
and calcium, without high
fructose corn syrup or any
artificial colors or flavors
found in many juice drink
pouches. TruMoo single
serve milk boxes are a
great option. They are
available in three flavors
kids will love - chocolate,
vanilla and plain low-fat
varieties, and are free of
artificial colors and fla-
vors.
2. Try to include at least
one item from each of
the five food groups:
grains, vegetables,
fruits, dairy and lean
protein, to help ensure
a balanced meal.
3. For a time-saver,
sandwiches can be
prepared the night be-
fore. Put sandwiches
in reusable sandwich
boxes instead of alu-
minum foil to prevent
them from getting
crushed or soggy.
4. Bite-sized fruits
and vegetables are
an easy way to add a
nutritious and fun staple
to lunch boxes. For picky
eaters, a favorite dip like
low-fat ranch, peanut but-
ter or hummus can help
make sure those fruits and
veggies quickly disappear.
5. Choose leaner lunch
meats like chicken, tur-
key and tuna in water, or
choose a hard-boiled egg,
beans or edamame as
great protein alternatives.
This way, kids can get
protein with less fat and
calories.
6. Keep cold food cold
and hot food hot - keeping
foods at safe temperatures
will prevent the growth
of unhealthy bacteria. Ice
packs and insulated con-
tainers are key.
7. Instead of potato
chips, try something dif-
ferent with the same
amount of satisfying
crunch such as: baby car-
rots, whole wheat pretzels
without salt or baked
sweet potato chips.
8. Liven up the lunchbox
with fun-shaped sandwich
and vegetable cutters.
Lunchtime should be fun
for kids, and they’ll be
thrilled to find a butterfly-
or dinosaur-shaped sand-
wich in their lunch.
9. Use leftovers, but
change up the presenta-
tion by putting meat on
whole wheat bread or
pitas with sliced tomato
or create a rice bowl with
leftover veggies and pro-
tein.
10. Variety is key to
keeping kids happy at
lunchtime. Avoid boredom
by offering new meal and
snack options daily or
weekly.

Breakfast is more than the first meal of the day
Most kids don’t want us to
remind them that breakfast is
the most important meal of the
day as they’re running out the
door to get to school on time.
But they might be interested in
hearing that eating a balanced
breakfast will make them feel
better, inside and out, contribut-
ing to better grades, better per-
formance on the field and better
nutrition choices throughout
their days.
A significant percentage of
elementary and an even greater
percentage of middle and high
school students skip breakfast
daily or a few times a week. On
a given day, up to 30 percent of
teens in the U.S. skip breakfast.
As they get older, homework,
jobs, sports teams, the arts and
the Internet result in all-too-
short nights for students, and
the need to catch a few more
moments of sleep in the morn-
ing.
Breakfast allows students to
break the fast of nighttime, reig-
niting brains and concentration
abilities. “It’s everything you’ve
heard about in terms of it being
a critical meal of the day,” says
Sue Moores, a registered dieti-
tian and consultant to schools
in the Twin Cities area of Min-
nesota. “Miss or skip breakfast
and you start the day playing
catch up.”
According to Moores, many
kids already lack important
body-strengthening, body
“building” nutrients such as
calcium, vitamin D, potassium,
protein and fiber. Without
breakfast, which is a meal that
can easily offer all of these,
there’s extra pressure to fill the
nutritional gaps with snacks
and other meals. Including
carbohydrates in the morning
meal (whole-grain carbs, says
Moores) is key, as carbs are the
preferred source of energy for
the brain. Add in a bit of protein
to help distribute the energy
carbohydrates offer, and you
have the start of a great meal.
Skipping breakfast may not
only put students behind the
eight-ball for morning nutrition,
adds Moores, it may also set
them back by way of poor food
choices for the rest of the day.
Some studies show breakfast-
skippers actually crave salty,
higher fat, sweet foods through-
out the day compared to people
who eat a morning meal. What
they eat in place of breakfast is
far from nutritious fare.
Beginning this school year,
school breakfasts are required
to meet the United States De-
partment of Agriculture’s new
food-based meal pattern, which
outlines increased amounts of
fruits/vegetables, grains and
milk food components.
Amy Harkey, a registered
dietitian and director of Child
Nutrition Operations with Char-
lotte-Mecklenburg Schools,
North Carolina, says that this
fall the Universal School Break-
fast Program is being imple-
mented in her district, meaning
that more than 140,000 students
will receive a balanced morning
meal at no charge. Previously,
these breakfasts were offered
to all students based on their
eligibility.
“We want to remove any
misperceptions that breakfast is
only for those children who are
economically disadvantaged,”
says Harkey. “It’s important for
all students to ‘break the fast’
and get the nutrition they need
to begin their busy academic
days.”
Harkey explains that they
provide a variety of “Quick
Bites for Breakfast,” offer-
ing both hot and cold options
that meet the complete school
breakfast requirements. “We
learned in our pilot test of the
program this spring that the
students are reacting positively
to our breakfast menus. They
enjoy having the menu board
outside the cafeteria so that
in the afternoons they can see
what will be offered the next
morning,” says Harkey.
Companies have stepped up
to the plate, delivering whole
grain and protein-rich options
that, when paired with a calci-
um-rich, low-fat milk, provide a
solid start to the day. Schwan’s
Food Service offers the new
Beacon Street Cafe (TM) 51
percent whole grain Sausage,
Egg and Cheese Sliders this
fall, with 8 grams of protein, 11
grams of whole grains, 0 grams
of trans fat and only 160 calo-
ries per serving (two pieces).
“Whether students catch a
brain-boosting breakfast at home
or at school, it’s important to find
a way to fit nutrient-rich foods in
for a good day of learning,” says
Moores. “It may seem inconse-
quential to skip a morning meal,
but results in the classroom show
that breakfast is key.”

Lunch box 101: 10 nutritious tips and tricks

As summer winds down, many
are heading into a busy buying
season with Labor Day soirees
and preparing for back-to-
school. With the average family
expected to spend an average of
$634.78 on back-to-school shop-
ping this year, according to the
National Retail Federation, con-
sumers are seeking cost saving
strategies to ensure they are get-
ting the most bang for the buck.
With more access to informa-
tion thanks to online resources
and smartphones, the power is
in purchasers’ hands. In fact, the
National Retail Federation fore-
cast revealed that approximately
36 percent of shoppers will do
more comparative shopping on-
line for back-to-school 2013.
Other ways people are cash-
ing in on the savings is going
back to the tried and true - bulk
shopping. Expert couponer Kelly
Snyder, of Kansas City Mamas,
says volume buying and storing
goods correctly has made a posi-
tive impact on her family’s fi-
nances. However, one important
thing to keep in mind is what to
do with all those purchases you
bring home.
“The right storage is essential
when purchasing in bulk,” said
Snyder. “Make sure you have
enough storage space and invest
in products and appliances that
keep you organized and help
preserve the integrity of your
purchases.”
Snyder points to refrigera-
tors as a key investment piece
for savvy shoppers who want to
store large amounts of perish-
ables.
Snyder along with fellow top
savings bloggers Briana Carter,
of Bargain Briana, and Lauren
Ortiz of Saving Addiction, offer
their top tips to help shoppers
best navigate through the sea of
savings.
• Don’t bypass a budget. Know
how much you’ve spent in order
to see your savings. By keeping a
monthly budget, you’ll never pay
too much.
•Don’t create a storage war.
Being organized will help keep
track of what you have and
prevent wasting food or need-
less purchases. For perishables,
dedicate one shelf each in your
refrigerator for beverages, pro-
duce and leftovers. A large re-
frigerator allows you to stock up
on items on sale.
•Get rewarded for loyalty. Join
loyalty programs of establish-
ments you frequent the most.
Eventually your purchasing pow-
er will return major perks. For
example, Shop Your Way, a free
membership and shopping com-
munity, allows Kmart and Sears
customers to earn points for
their purchases to redeem online
or in store. In addition, members
get alerts on special offerings,
personalized deals, product re-
views, events and sweepstakes
for even more savings.
•Tracking gets you a treat.
Create a price book to record
costs for items over a six-week
period. Make a purchase only
when prices hit their low. You’ll
optimize savings and often won’t
need a coupon.
•Increase your buying IQ with
a smartphone. Download money-
saving and grocery coupon apps
like SavingStar and Coupons.
com, as well as apps for rewards
programs like Shop Your Way.
•Remember coupons are king.
While many still enjoy clipping
paper coupons, downloadable
eCoupons are more popular than
ever. Now, eCoupons are more
sophisticated by pushing sav-
ings based on style and shopping
habits like those from ShopY-
ourWay.com. Sears is the first
retailer to offer eCoupons that
are redeemable in-store, online
and from a mobile device. In ad-
dition, they are redeemable both
in-store and online. This will not
only save money, but save time
too.
•Go generic or store brands.
It’s always better to go with a
store brand if you don’t have
a coupon for a name-brand
item. While these versions are
cheaper, they often offer similar
quality.
• Serve what’s on sale. Buying
sale items in bulk allow you to
pre-cook meals in one day to be
served over the week. A great
kitchen helper to get this job
done quickly would be a double
oven.

Helping children
with their homework
requires more than an
understanding of the
subject matter, whether
it’s algebra or world lit-
erature. To help children
succeed throughout the
school year, it’s impor-
tant for parents to nur-
ture positive study hab-
its and organizational
skills, and provide kids
with a home environ-
ment that fosters con-
centration.
“Whether your kids
are just learning to read,
write and spell, or they
are studying for the
SATs, we parents have
an opportunity to help
instill work and study
habits that will stick
with our children for
life,” says education and
parenting expert Dr. Mi-
chele Borba, who is the
bestselling author of 22
parenting books and a
frequent TODAY show
contributor.
Borba offers parents
some easy tips to help
children of all ages
develop skills that will
help them reach their
academic goals:
* Give them space -
Create a dedicated space
for homework and study.
This underscores the im-
portance of homework
to kids. If you don’t have
room for a homework
desk, consider keeping
all homework and study
tools in a bin or box that
children can take out
and use every day. Keep
all essentials in one
place to help avoid time
wasted looking for the
dictionary, ruler, calcu-
lator or other tool.
* Create a routine
- Choose a time that
works best for your
child to do homework,
then stick to that time
every day. A set and pre-
dictable schedule helps
minimize homework
battles. “Work before
play” can motivate kids
to get their homework
done, but if your child
plays sports or has other
after-school commit-
ments, doing homework
after dinner may be the
best option.
* Avoid distractions
- Establish a technology-
free zone for homework
and studying. Turn off
TVs, ban text messag-
ing and ensure kids
are using their PC for
research, rather than
Facebook. This measure
may seem obvious to
you, but remember -
kids are so tied to tech
these days that they
may be surprised to find
out they can more ef-
ficiently use their time
without the distractions
of technology.
* Map out assign-
ments - Help children
plot homework on a
schedule so they have
simple reminders of dai-
ly, weekly or long-term
assignments. Include
other engagements like
sports or music les-
sons to help kids have a
clearer picture of their
own schedules. This can
help build basic time
management skills, like
working on a long-term
project every day over
time, or avoiding a late-
night cramming session
for a big test.
* Lessons in planning
and prioritizing - Teach
kids to make lists of
what they need to do
each night in order of
priority.
As your child accom-
plishes each item, have
him cross it off the list.
For children who had
difficulty staying on
task, breaking large
projects into smaller,
more manageable tasks
can help. Encourage
kids to do the hardest
homework first to help
relieve the pressure of a
long to-do list.
* Emphasize the effort
- Stressing persever-
ance and effort in a task
helps children work lon-
ger and harder, because
they recognize their
success is based on how
hard they work. Instead
of asking “What score
did you get?” ask “How
hard are you working?”
* Effective study hab-
its - Spreading out study
sessions and practice
testing were the two
most-effective learning
tactics, according to a
recent report by the As-
sociation for Psychologi-
cal Science.
Both techniques in-
volve strong time man-
agement skills. Help
children think of study
sessions or pieces of a
larger project as daily
to-dos, and just as im-
portant as the home-
work assignment that
may be due tomorrow.

Saving for college
Is it ever too early
to start saving for col-
lege? Is it ever too late?
Finance experts say the
answer to both questions
is a resounding “no,”
and an annual Gen Z &
Money survey released
by TD Ameritrade Hold-
ing Corporation (NYSE:
AMTD) indicates that
members of Generation
Z are hearing the mes-
sage loud and clear.
Many members of Gen
Z (people born during
the 1990s) are either
already facing, or are
on the verge of facing,
their own college fund-
ing challenges. Head
Research, on behalf of
TD Ameritrade, Inc., sur-
veyed 1,000 people, ages
14 to 23, regarding sav-
ing for college. Survey
results and methodology
are available online at
www.amtd.com/news-
room/investorIndex.cfm.
“Many parents of Gen
Z kids are still paying
back loans for their
own college education,”
says Carrie Braxdale,
managing director of
investor services for TD
Ameritrade, Inc. (TD
Ameritrade), a broker
dealer subsidiary of TD
Ameritrade Holding
Corporation. “Aware of
their parents’ struggles,
this young generation is
concerned about the cost
of college. Forty-six per-
cent of those surveyed
say their biggest post-
graduation worry is hav-
ing a large student loan
balance, and 36 percent
worry about being able
to afford college at all.”
College costs continue
to rise - more than 1,120
percent in the past 35
years, according to a
Bloomberg report. The
average student loan
debt owed was $26,600
in 2011, according to the
Institute for College Ac-
cess & Success.
Still, Gen Z has no
doubt the investment is
worth the money. More
than half (54 percent)
say obtaining a higher
education is critical to
achieving success, and
64 percent agree college
is worth the cost because
it will help them secure
employment, according
to the TD Ameritrade
survey.
“Parents who work
with their children early
to develop a financial
plan and clearly set fi-
nancial expectations can
help better prepare them
for financial success lat-
er in life,” Braxdale says.
“And even if they start
saving when their child
is already in high school,
they should remember
that every dollar they
save toward college now
is a dollar less they will
owe in student loans.”
Fortunately, a variety
of college savings plans
can help better prepare
parents and their kids for
the future, including:
• A 529 College Sav-
ings Plan - Usually
administered through
or sponsored by a state
government, 529s offer
several tax advantages.
Earnings in the account
are not subject to federal
tax and withdrawals for
qualified higher educa-
tion expenses are gener-
ally free of state and fed-
eral taxes. Contributions
are generally not tax
deductible, but parents
may be able to exclude
529 money from their
taxable estate, making
them a possible way to
reduce one’s estate taxes
while helping a child pay
for college.
• Before investing in
a 529 Plan, carefully
consider the investment
objectives, risks, charges
and expenses involved.
This and other important
information regarding
the plan is included in
the Program Disclosure
Statement and Participa-
tion Agreement and each
prospectus on the under-
lying investments, which
may be obtained by con-
tacting the issuer. Please
read each prospectus,
the Program Disclosure
Statement, and Partici-
pation Agreement care-
fully prior to investing.
Investment return and
principal value of an
investment will fluctu-
ate so that an investor’s
units, when withdrawn,
may be worth more or
less than their original
cost.
You should be aware
that other states may
sponsor their own quali-
fied tuition plans and
may offer a state tax
deduction or other ben-
efits that are limited to
residents who invest in
that plan. You should
consult with your finan-
cial, tax or other advisor
about state and local tax
benefits or limitations
based on your specific
situation. Favorable tax
treatment by your state
of residence should be
one of many appropri-
ately weighted factors
you should consider in
making an investment
decision.
• Coverdell Education
Savings Accounts - In
general, earnings and
qualified withdrawals
in an education savings
account are federal tax
free. While 529s are
exclusively for college,
you can use an ESA to
help pay for elementary
school, high school or
college expenses. There
are no minimum contri-
bution requirements, and
you can put up to $2,000
per child, per year into
the account. Contribu-
tions are generally not
tax deductible.
• Custodial accounts
- A great way to build as-
sets for children or loved
ones, custodial accounts
allow you to manage a
minor’s assets and in-
vestments. The account
will be in the child’s
name and Social Secu-
rity number, but it cannot
be accessed until he or
she reaches legal age.
You act as guardian until
the child is old enough
and can assume control
of the assets.
Braxdale offers some
tips for creating a college
investing strategy:
•Start early. Even a
small amount set aside
each month allows your
money to start working
for you long before the
first tuition bill arrives.
•Set goals, includ-
ing the total you want
to have saved and how
much you will save each
year to reach that goal.
TD Ameritrade’s College
Planner can help with
goal setting by helping
project how much you’ll
need to save to cover ex-
pected tuition costs.
•Choose an investing
vehicle. Decide which
type of college investing
plan will best help you
pursue your goal.
• Track your progress.
Check regularly on your
college investing ac-
counts to see if you’re
on track toward meeting
your goals.
• Consult a quali-
fied tax advisor. Every
individual’s tax situa-
tion is different, so it is
important to consider
talking with a qualified
tax advisor regarding the
particular investment
vehicle you choose. TD
Ameritrade does not pro-
vide tax advice.
Keep in mind that there
is no guarantee that the
investment vehicle you
choose will achieve its
investment goals. The
value of an account will
go up or down based on
the performance of the
underlying investments.
When funds are with-
drawn, they may have
more or less value than
the total contributions
made to the account.

Key Women Educators,
Wishes all area educators
A successful
2013-14 school year
We value your daily contributions to our world!
School days mean
long hours studying
indoors, exercising
students’ brains but
not their bodies. While
classroom learning
is the cornerstone of
education, it’s impor-
tant to remember that
physical activity sup-
ports overall wellness.
Keeping kids moving
can even boost brain
function, improving
their grades along with
their muscles.
The U.S. Department
of Health and Human
Services recommends
that all people age 6
and older engage in 60
minutes of daily physi-
cal activity. This advice
comes as many P.E.
programs have been
reduced, cut or simply
not required.
During a break in
busy schedules, rather
than allowing kids to
gravitate toward TV,
tablets or the comput-
er, encourage them to
stay active with these
Children’s Miracle
Network Hospitals-
approved tips:
Understand
children’s
motivators
Recognize that dif-
ferent age groups
have different fitness
drives, according to
the experts at Duke
Children’s Hospital
in Durham, N.C. For
young kids, variety is
key. Obstacle courses,
scavenger hunts and
timed relays keep their
bodies and minds ac-
tive. Teens can stay fit
by developing a skill
and tracking improve-
ment over time. Help
them set small goals
each week and track
improvements, so you
can both be proud of
their progress as the
weeks zoom by.
Get active, exercise
restraint
Keeping kids active
is just as much about
getting them moving as
it is removing mental
obstacles, says Mea-
gan Young, a lifestyle
program specialist at
Janeway Children’s
Hospital in Newfound-
land, Canada. Setting
limits on TV and video
games is a good place
to start. TV-time to-
kens - tokens kids earn
each day that can be
exchanged for TV or
computer time - pro-
vide kids flexibility and
freedom with a struc-
ture still in place.
Variety is the
spice of life
A fun, family-friendly
option is to create a
communal activity jar.
Have each family mem-
ber write enjoyable
activities on a piece
of paper and combine
them. Check communi-
ty papers and websites
for free, local events
to include in the mix.
Whenever boredom
strikes, pull out the jar
to find your family’s
next adventure.
Keep it classic and
work TO a goal
No matter how far
technology advances,
simple games can’t be
beat. Tug-of-war, tag,
Frisbee and hopscotch
are classics for a rea-
son: they’ve stood the
test of time. Consider
daily variety and a
long-term goal, says
the staff at Central
Lynchburg General
Hospital in Lynchburg,
Va. If you face resis-
tance from your child,
start with 15 minutes
and gradually increase
their daily play. Con-
sider prize categories
for the most improved,
best “sport” or partici-
pation. You might even
host a neighborhood
play group one night
a week to encourage
everyone to get active
and have fun.
Make participation
a family affair
One of the best ways
to motivate children
to stay active is to join
them. When mom, dad
or other caregivers
participate, kids are
less likely to turn up
their noses. Jump in
and play on the jungle
gym or put on your
running shoes for that
rambunctious game of
tag. Kids won’t be able
to resist, and you’ll be
helping them and your-
self stay physically fit.
By setting a family
fitness routine, kids
will learn that staying
active starts at home.
