DOORS [Continued From Page1A stood watching with satisfaction as the students came in, most of them accompanied by their parents. A number of the parents greeted him personally, remembering him from their own high school days as South Granville High School’s band director from 1979 until 1990. “I couldn’t resist,” said Daniel, “When southern Granville County called, I came a-runnin’. I couldn’t say no; the eleven years I spent here were some of the best, highest points of my career. I’m just glad I could come back and help all this come together.” It almost didn’t come together on time. The school is housed in a modular campus made up of one ten-classroom modular building, seven individual classroom trailers, and one small office trailer, all connected by aluminum decking. For this first year, Falls Lake Academy will hold all its classes, events, and activities in this tiny space while waiting for their permanent structure to be built right behind the current modular campus location. Next summer, the staff and parents will move everything again, from the current modular buildings to the permanent structure, a modern state-of-the-art facility designed to support the innovative and creative ways that Falls Lake Academy teaches its kids to learn and thrive. Once the modular campus is gone, the place where it now sits will become the school’s new softball field. In the meantime, the county inspections were held up during the two weeks leading up to Opening Day, forcing the school to hold its Enrollment Intake session at a nearby church at the last minute. The Board and staff waited anxiously right up to the last Friday before school opened on Monday for the Certificate of Occupancy. When it finally arrived on Friday afternoon August 23rd, literally hundreds of staff members, Board members, and parents once again pulled together to get the school ready to open the following Monday. “By the time Monday morning rolled around,” said Daniel, “I was exhausted. I’m sure the staff was, too. But you know what? You couldn’t tell by looking at them. I’ve never seen a happier, more excited group of teachers, even though many of them, like me, were dead on their feet when they charged into the first day of teaching. It was truly amazing.” Falls Lake Academy is a Project-Based Learning school. Students in every grade level are being taught how to organize and take charge of their own learning, working in groups and individually, doing research and practicing the isolation and solving of complex problems. Along the way, they identify examples of their own best work and save them in Showcase Portfolios, which they will present to their parents and other adult audiences at or about the same time they present their PBL projects. The whole system is very student-centered and results-oriented. “This is different from the The Butner-Creedmoor News, Thursday, September 19, 2013 5a way kids generally do school,” Daniel said. “We’re committed to bringing the absolute best teaching and learning practices, backed up by research proving their success, to every classroom. We’re aiming at the very best for every kid, nothing less. We take no prisoners around here.” “I just love this,” Katrina Cooke said when asked what it was like to join the effort so close to Opening Day. “I love being on the Board. I love working with these people, and I love walking down the hall and watching a bunch of teachers, every one of whom are excited to come to work, teaching with such high levels of enthusiasm.” She’s not alone. So far, the students and parents all seem to agree that this experiment in charter school education is a resounding success. The students and faculty gathered around the modular units at Falls Lake Academy on the first day of school. American Hero held their 13th Anniversary celebration on September 7th. Moimen, George, Adam and Fibi thank all of their customers for their support over the years and look forward to meeting and serving new customers in the upcoming years. Special Events Day At NC State Fair This year, the N.C. State Fair will offer a number of special-event days geared toward the military, senior citizens and kids. Visitors participating in the Food Lion Hunger Relief Day will need to bring five cans of food instead of four in order to receive their free admission ticket. This change marks the first increase in the number of cans required since the program began. Special days include: • The fair will open on Thursday, Oct. 17, at 3 p.m. for Preview Day. Fairgoers can purchase unlimited-ride wristbands for $28, which are good from 3:30 until midnight on Preview Day only. Attendees will also receive discounted admission tickets at the gate for $7 for adults and $3 for children ages 6-12. Wristbands cannot be purchased in advance, but will be available at ticket booths on the fairgrounds. Youth and school groups can enjoy special educational opportunities on Monday, October 21, during Youth Celebration Day. Groups of 40 or more are eligible for special admission packages, available for online purchase in advance before Oct. 17. With fewer crowds, groups will have an easier time taking advantage of educational materials for the fair, available at www.ncstatefair.org/ 2013/General/ Educational.htm. • Although senior citizens receive free admission every day of the fair, there will be special events for them on Senior Citizens Day, Tuesday, Oct. 22. Seniors will enjoy a free breakfast and entertainment in Dorton Arena from 9 to 11 a.m. Parking will be available in Carter-Finley Stadium at Gate A, and trams will transport attendees from their cars to Dorton. There is no special ticket needed for Senior Citizens Day events. • On Wednesday, Oct. 23, the N.C. State Fair will honor U.S. service personnel during Military Appreciation Day. Although military adults receive a discounted admission price of $5 every day at the fair, Military Appreciation Day will feature special performances by the 440th Army Band. The band is part of the National Guard and will perform at 1,3 and 5 p.m. on the Waterfall Stage, sponsored by Kitchen Craft. • The Food Lion Hunger Relief Day on Thursday, Oct. 24, will benefit the Food Bank of Central and Eastern North Carolina, which serves 34 counties surrounding Raleigh. This years change requiring five cans instead of four in exchange for a free admission ticket will make a noticeable difference to hungry people in the area. The need for more canned goods at the Food Bank has prompted us to increase the number of cans needed to get in free to five cans, said Fair Manager Wesley Wyatt. An extra can from each fairgoer will mean thousands of meals provided to needy families throughout North Carolina. Since the hunger relief day began 18 years New Arrival ago, more than 2 million pounds of food have been donated by fairgoers. The N.C. State Fair will run October 17-27 at the State Fairgrounds. Discount admission and ride tickets are available online until October 17 and at walkup locations Oct. 3-17. Adult tickets are $7.00 in advance and Children ages 6-12 are $3.00 in advance and Children under 6 and seniors 65 and older receive For more information about the 2013 N.C.
