Vision of a Graduate - Andover Public Schools
Mar 29, 2024
The Andover Public School System is currently engaging community members in developing a Vision of a Graduate, a collective framework that articulates our aspirations for every student in Andover Public Schools. The Vision of a Graduate will serve as the DNA for our schools, bringing our community together with a shared narrative. We want our Vision of a Graduate to be locally developed and globally positioned to articulate the skills that our students need in order to thrive in their lives and future careers. We hope that you’ll bring your unique perspective to this collaborative process. Our shared aspiration is that all of our students have an educational experience that prepares them to be lifelong learners and contributors today and tomorrow. |

Andover Pollinator Pathway
Apr 26, 2024
Two years ago, a group of interested Andover residents teamed up to launch an initiative called the Andover Pollinator Pathway. Our mission is to promote native plantings and healthy habitats for pollinators throughout our community. Each of us can make a difference, starting right in our own yards. In their presentation, Maria Bartlett and Suzanne Korschun will show you how easy it is to join the Andover Pollinator Pathway. You can put your garden on the map by doing the following five things: 1) plant native plants, including trees, shrubs, grasses, and flowers, 2) reduce the use of chemical fertilizers, herbicides, and pesticides in favor of safer alternatives, 3) control invasive plants, 4) reduce lawn size in favor of native plantings, and 5) leave leaves somewhere in the yard in the fall. They will also discuss their pilot project for the 5th graders at South School and plans to expand to more schools next year. You are invited to join the APP in building pollinator friendly habitat in Andover. It’s easy – start small with a mailbox garden and then put your garden on the map! www.pollinator-pathway.org/towns/andover |

House of Hope
Jun 07, 2024
Andover Rotary's own Jean Leider will present on her recent mission trip! House of Hope is a non-profit organization started in Northern Colorado in 2009. Our family took the project to Guatemala after a short term mission trip in 2011. The poverty, desperation and despair had a huge impact on our family. We were familiar with loss, suffering and heartbreak. Our middle daughter Hope was 9 when she was diagnosed with osteogenic sarcoma, cancer of the bone. She suffered unbelievably in her battle. Through it, she had a faith that never wavered. She trusted the will of God, and that He was in control. After fighting for 18 months, she went home to live with her Savior. A year later, House of Hope was born. When we saw the many children who were alone and suffering in Guatemala, it impacted our family in a way only God can orchestrate. He fulfilled His promise trading beauty for ashes. Hope’s legacy lives on as her life serves as the passion behind our ministry. We have been able to serve the people of Guatemala and point them to Christ, the source of our love and strength. For more information: https://www.houseofhope.life/

Winter Crow Roost
Jul 19, 2024
Craig Gibson is a well known bird and conservation photographer. His ongoing focus is on expanding awareness about the Winter Crow Roost in Lawrence, MA, the extended Merrimack Valley area, and Eastern Massachusetts. Craig designed and launched the blog and continues to oversee all editorial content. He has also been the lead on initiating and coordinating a range of activities and events with local arts, education, and community groups as well as working with a growing number of conservation and environmental organizations. He wrote and published a comprehensive 14 page report to recap the 2018-2019 winter season, a roost photography guide, and a roost counting guide. Overall, his efforts have raised much greater awareness of the Winter Crow Roost, and he has been a catalyst for a range of new community science initiatives. In the fall 2017, after tracking the roost since 2010, Craig worked together in close collaboration with other local birders to form the Crow Patrol in the Lawrence area. Over the past seven winter seasons, he has personally documented more than 425 observation nights, while monitoring, documenting, and photographing the overnight staging and roosting of American and Fish Crows. Craig has made over 350 Crow Roost specific postings to eBird, an especially important data portal for open access citizen science projects around the globe. As an active birding videographer, Craig was invited in January 2024 to participate in video upload privileges for his eBird account. Craig worked closely with staff and leadership at the Essex Art Center in Lawrence, MA to create the “Celebrating the Winter Crow Roost” art exhibit in 2019. The exhibit was a big success with record turnouts and lots of media coverage. The EAC hosted the exhibit for a second year in 2020, with an expanded group of participating artists. He worked closely with staff at El Taller Cafe and Bookstore in Lawrence, MA for a Crow-themed art exhibit that opened in February 2020 and received great acclaim. In an effort to help other bird and wildlife photographers, he wrote and published the “Winter Crow Roost Photography Guide” in late 2020. |
