Thank You
In the spirit of thankfulness Atlas wishes to
thank his kind and generous Northwood community.
Atlas a “throw away” horse at the young age
of three, was found at his second rescue center. He was in a state
of starvation, lame, infested with worms, and very depressed when he
was purchased three and a half years ago and brought to a startup
farm in Northwood. There he found a community of kind and generous
Northwood residents.
At his arrival on the farm the neighbors came
out in droves to welcome him. Special homemade organic cookies were
brought to him by one neighbor, apples by another, black licorice by
yet another neighbor. A stall was built for him with material and
labor donated by a caring carpenter. People across town thought of
his needs and gave hay, corn and vegetables.
Most of all the people in Northwood gave him
love, all for a horse that has yet to give a soul a ride. Atlas has
two indented ribs and therefore will never be much of a ride, but
this doesn’t seem to bother the people in Northwood.
So that being said Atlas wishes to thank his
many Northwood friends for their ongoing kindness, unconditional
love and generosity. Molly Detrude, Tammy Detrude, Dylan Detrude,
Laurie Lalish, Ann and Bob Knowlton, Barbara Tuttle, Ann, Barbra,

Happy Thanksgiving from your favorite horse!
Cazenovia College Makes Their Mark At
First Horse Show Of The Season
Haley Bell and Samantha Bogart of Cazenovia
College show off their 1st places in their jumping classes.
The Cazenovia College Equestrian team hunt
seat riders traveled to their first back-toback IHSA shows hosted by
SUNY Geneseo at Leg Up Stables of Geneseo, NY. IHSA (Intercollegiate
Horse Show Association) was established in 1967. This type of horse
showing for intercollegiate competition is to invite fair
competition in the form of catch riding, which is when competing
riders pick a random horse’s name (provided by the hosting team) out
of a hat and then must compete the horse in a jumping or flat class,
depending on the level of the rider.
IHSA riders are not allowed to practice on
the horse. College team scoring is determined by the placement that
their point riders win in their certain classes. On the morning of
the show, coaches pick their certain point riders for each level and
class offered and ribbons won (1st = 7pts, 2nd = 5 pts, 3rd = 4 pts,
4th = 3 pts, 5th = 2 pts, 6 = 1 pt) go towards the team’s overall
score.
All team members of Cazenovia College
represented the school very well by earning Reserve Champion Team at
the show on Saturday, only three points behind St. Lawrence
University. Captain and sophomore, Haley Bell, of Northwood, NH was
the designated point rider for both the Novice fences and Novice
flat classes, which proved to be beneficial as Bell went on to win
both classes, contributing 14 points to Cazenovia College’s overall
score. Those
ribbons not only benefited the team but also
qualified Bell for the Zone 2 Region 2 competition that will be held
in March, 2014. Later in the day Bell and freshman, Samantha Bogart,
also of Cazenovia College, competed in a ride-off to determine the
champion high point rider of the day.
Bell earned the high point title with her
teammate, Bogart, coming in as the reserve champion high point
rider. To round out the day, other Cazenovia College riders also
joined Bell in qualifying for the Zone 2 Region 2 competition:
Tayler Rohling and Amanda Graf for the Advanced Walk, Trot, Canter
class, Natania Diamond for Novice Fences, and Hannah Mueller for
Intermediate fences.
On the following day the Cazenovia College
Equestrian team of hunt seat riders continued to dominate at the
show and ride the Geneseo provided horses well. Great jumping
classes were had by all Cazenovia College riders as well as the flat
classes with three of the point riders winning their respective
classes (Erica Sparks for Open Flat, Haley Bell for Intermediate
Flat, and Kierstyn Duggleby for Novice Flat).
Karl Carichner ended the day with a solid 2nd place finish in the
Walk Trot division, clinching the win for Cazenovia College over St.
Lawrence University.
After this double header horse show,
Cazenovia College is leading the Zone 2 Region 2 point standings
over the nine teams competing in this region. The team is back in
practice gearing up for their upcoming horse shows for the rest of
the fall semester.
Second Grade Goes Shopping!
The second graders at Northwood School are
very excited to be participating in a math unit involving money!
Students are earning coins each day and are able to shop at our
second grade school store (soon to be named)!
This project has students identifying coins,
counting money, trading coins for like amounts, and making
purchasing decisions. As the year progresses, students will be
responsible for making change.
Volunteers from the community come in and
help us with our banking on Thursdays and shopping on Fridays. The
second graders and their teachers would like to thank these
volunteers for helping make this program so successful!

Letter To The Editor
Dear Editor,
Just how much, really, do parents in this or
any other community care about their children’s education?
As a parent, or grandparent for that matter,
is it worth taking a few seconds of your time to answer that
question? I ask this because however well intended, a teacher can
never care about an individual child as much as the parents. In
theory. That is, if a parent cares little then it is possible that
the teacher cares more. (The ‘care less’ are probably not reading
this).
For those parents who care a lot, regardless
of any good intentions or effort by your child’s teacher, you are
about to lose any real say as to how or what your child will be
taught. School boards will become rubber stamps for
mandates on curriculum not generated from even Concord but from
Washington D.C.
These new controls are what is called the
Common Core Curriculum. The CCC has been a long time the works
advocated by those that want centralized, one designed national
education. This advocacy is in spite of experience and fact that
there are no masterminds anywhere - especially in Washington - that
know better than the vast variety of educators across the country.
Oddly some teachers, not all, who were upset
with the dictates of ‘No Child Left Behind’ are not objecting to the
CCC which is NCLB on steroids. CCC is being sold quite
disingenuously as a national effort to improve educational
standards. It does not. In addition it institutes a massive
student data sharing program from K-12 with many other government
agencies supposedly with anonymity. Not true, your children will be
tracked, in detail.
That anyone would willingly turn over the
education of their children to a distant bureaucracy is
irresponsible. If you’re insulted perhaps you deserve to be.

Dear Editor,
I would like to than Richard Doucet for the
well thought reminder and review of some of the history of Veteran’s
Day. We are constantly in jeopardy of forgetting.
