HTSD Wind Ensemble - PMEA State Conference

challenge the students to practice more often, rehearse better, and reach for the highest performance

level. This performance opportunity is the ultimate Quad D Summative Assessment of the year. The

students will perform in front of a few hundred music teachers from across the state. This will be a

wonderful opportunity to showcase Hampton Township School District to a state-wide audience. To be

able to attend this Conference, we respectfully request the transportation expenses be covered by the

Academic Competition Fund.

Community Education Classes Pilot for Spring 2017

Read It Before You Eat It: Understanding Nutrition Facts Labels Learn how to use the nutrition facts label to make informed decisions on how to fuel your body. Discover how to use the nutrition label to compare food products and select products with the best nutritional value. Instructor: Catherine Dorian, RD, LDN 1 session Eating Smart for Mind, Body, and Soul For those with health concerns, the world of fad dieting can sometimes feel fickle, overwhelming, and unsatisfying. Perhaps the solution to healthier eating is merely to simplify: “eat food; not too much; mostly plants.” Based on the tenants of Michael Pollan’s In Defense of Food: An Eater’s Manifesto, this course will seek to reveal tips, recipes, techniques, and strategies to reduce consumption of many of the overly processed and unhealthy foods that have become so prevalent in the American diet, and to replace them with foods that will energize the mind, body, and soul. Instructor: Terrence Hales 3 sessions – 1 lecture/1 fieldtrip/1cooking class Spring Party Appetizers Do these colder temperatures get you ready for a spring party? There are lots of easy appetizers you can make to surprise and delight your guests! Come out for this hands-on demonstration and take home some delicious ideas for spring party planning. Instructor: Betti Dudenas 1 session Civil War: The Battle of Antietam The Battle of Antietam is the bloodiest day in American history. The battle led President Lincoln to release the Emancipation Proclamation and changed our nation forever. You are invited to explore the events leading up to the Battle of Antietam and to analyze the decisions made during this September 1862 campaign. You will participate in four one-hour classes that will analyze the numerous events and will include time to debate and role-play. The class will also offer an optional one-day trip to the battlefield where we will be able to apply what we discussed in the class and expand your understanding of this critical time in American history. Participants who wish to attend the field trip would provide their own transportation; details of the trip will be discussed in class. Instructor: Kevin Green 4 sessions with one optional trip -- March 16th, March 30th, April 6, and April 20th with the trip to Antietam on May 13th or May 20th

Algebra for Adults Algebra is often considered a gatekeeper that can prevent people from realizing career ambitions, even when their goals have nothing to do with mathematics. This course is designed for community members who need help passing a college Algebra class, or preparing to get their GED, or for those parents in the community who wish to understand the subject so as to assist with their children’s success in the course at school. Instructor: Michael Amick 6 sessions -- Thursday evenings 6:00 – 8:00 Get Ready to Garden! Hampton Township Resident and Master Gardener Delia Egan will walk you through the steps to prepare your garden for spring planting. Join like-minded gardeners and get invaluable tips on how to make the spring growing season a success! Instructor: Delia Egan 1 session Patio Container Gardening Hampton Township Resident and Master Gardener Delia Egan is back to provide a hands-on workshop on how to build a container garden for your patio. Welcome spring and provide a beautiful focus point in your outdoor space! Instructor: Delia Egen 1 session Centerpiece Flower Arranging If you are planning to entertain this season, beautiful floral centerpieces can create a warm and inviting look. This hands-on workshop will enable participants to create and take home a special long and low centerpiece that can be replicated with different floral colors. Instructor: Mary Jo Bullington 1 session Beauty in a Vase Come and celebrate the arrival of spring by creating a beautiful multi-colored floral arrangement for yourself or for someone special. Vases and flowers for a 12-18 inch arrangement will be provided. Instructor: Mary Jo Bullington 1 session Resume 101 If you are ready for a new job and want to dust off or recreate your resume, this course is for you. Spend some time analyzing strong resumes and find the style and wording that fits your professional objective. Cover letters will also be addressed if time and interest permit. Instructor: Sally Johnson 1 session

Social Media 101 Has Twitter tweaked your interest? Do you wish to reconnect with friends and family on Facebook? Bring your own device and come to this class to learn about Twitter and Facebook, set up your own accounts, and find out how best to protect yourself while online. This one time, 2-hour class is perfect for the “not so tech savvy” who wish to get started. Instructor: Shari Berg 1 session
