Clayton “Tony” “Grampa” Fecto

Clayton “Tony” “Grampa” Fecto was a longtime Hinsdale resident. While in high school, he excelled in baseball and was later offered professional contracts with the Boston Braves and Pittsburgh Pirates, which he declined due to family obligations. He was also a member of the Hinsdale High School’s first varsity basketball team. “Grandpa Fecto,” as he was affectionately known throughout town, was a volunteer and coach in various youth sports organizations in Hinsdale for many years. He spearheaded the building of the pavilion. His fudge was famous and he was always delivering it around town. In his later years, Grandpa Fecto could be found cheering on the Hinsdale Pacers; whether it was from his chair under the scoreboard at a soccer game, in the corner of the gym at a basketball game, or walking between the baseball and softball fields in the spring. Tony Fecto was a pillar in the Hinsdale community, and his presence is one that will be sorely missed in the years to come.

49 From The Desk of The Board of Selectmen

The mission of the annual town report is for selectmen, town departments, town committees, and agency organizations to prepare reports for the town’s residents, taxpayers and historical archives. This report summarizes events, activities, and projects undertaken during the past year and sets the framework for the future. We hope that the information contained in this year’s annual report provides the information necessary to assist the town meeting decision- making process as well as a resource to citizens in the upcoming year.

We continue updating policies and procedures to help our town run more efficiently. Postings for public hearings regarding any changes to policies and procedures can be reviewed at the Town Hall and T-Bird Mini Mart. We also advertise in a local newspaper – the Keene Sentinel.

The town-wide revaluation was completed in 2017. The Town’s current property value is $343,071,079. We will begin the cyclical valuation this coming year were 25% of the town is revaluated on an annual basis. Our next updated valuation will take place in 2022.

Meetings and public hearings have been conducted regarding the Hinsdale/Brattleboro Bridge Project. We are very excited that after a long wait, the bridge has been earmarked to begin construction in 2019-2020. Interested parties who would like to keep informed on the bridge updates can visit the NH DOT website under Project Information Center (https://www.nh.gov/dot/projects/index.htm).

A Congested Mitigation & Air Quality Program (CMAQ) application was submitted to fund improvements to School Street. The estimated project is $992,300 of which the town applied for a grant in the amount of $752,153. Unfortunately, we did not receive the funding, but anticipate submitting a Transportation Alternative Program (TAP) application in 2018.

A grant application was submitted to Rural Development to fund a Brush Truck for the Fire Department. The cost of the truck is approximately $210,000. If the application is approved, we will be receiving a grant in the amount of $73,500 to offset the cost of the truck.

The Selectmen are aware of the economic conditions facing the residents of Hinsdale. Town employees continue to serve the residents as efficiently as possible and continue to look for other sources for funding besides property taxes to fund the town’s needs.

Successful local government requires the participation of residents and voters. We urge voters to take part in voting on March 13, 2018 and attend Town Meeting on March 17, 2018 at the Hinsdale High School Gymnasium. The Town Meeting will begin at 9:00 a.m. and the School Meeting at 10:30 a.m. or shortly thereafter the close of the Town Meeting. We hope to see you there and remember to bring your town report.

The input and participation of our citizens is essential to Selectmen, town departments, and committees if our town is to continue to be an exceptional community in which to live.

Respectfully Submitted The Hinsdale Board of Selectmen

52 TOWN OF HINSDALE COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT OFFICE 603-336-5727 ext. 17 The Community Development Office has been busy this year, particularly with Property Records and Assessing responsibilities. The Five Year Full Revaluation was preformed this year. Assessors from Vision Government Solutions measured and performed interior inspections of homes that had recent sales throughout Hinsdale to ensure that all the properties in town are equally valued. New assessments were determined and are available for your review at http://www.caigisonline.com/HinsdaleNH and also at the Town’s Library and in the Community Development Office.

Looking toward the future, the Planning Board would like to propose some changes to the Roadside Commercial District, which is along Rt. 119, Brattleboro Road. They propose changing the district into two zones, Zone A and Zone B. Zone A would allow the same uses as it presently does with some additional residentially friendly uses. Zone B, which are larger vacant lots, would allow the same uses as Zone A with additional uses such as light manufacturing. These changes promote economic development in the district with still keeping the integrity of the neighborhoods within the district.

The proposed amendments will be determined by ballot vote March 13, 2018. The amendments listed below were suggested by the Planning Board after careful review of the Zoning Ordinance:

1. Are you in favor of the adoption of Amendment No. 1 as proposed by the Planning Board for the Hinsdale Zoning Ordinance as follows: To amend Article II, Zoning Districts and Zoning Map, to replace the Roadside Commercial District with Roadside Commercial District Zone B.

2. Are you in favor of the adoption of Amendment No. 2 as proposed by the Planning Board for the Hinsdale Zoning Ordinance as follows: To amend Article V, Us Regulations, for the proposed Roadside Commercial District A and Roadside Commercial District Zone B.

3. Are you in favor of the adoption of Amendment No. 3 as proposed by the Planning Board for the Hinsdale Zoning Ordinance as follows: To amend Article II, Zoning Districts and Zoning Map, to change labeled properties along Rt. 119, Brattleboro Rd., from the Roadside Commercial District to the Rural Agricultural District. These changes are specified on the DRAFT Zoning Map.

4. Are you in favor of the adoption of Amendment No. 4 as proposed by the Planning Board for the Hinsdale Zoning Ordinance as follows: To amend Article II, Zoning Districts and Zoning Map, to change labeled properties along Rt. 119, Brattleboro Rd., from the Rural Agricultural District to the Roadside Commercial District Zone A, Roadside Commercial Zone B. These changes are specified on a DRAFT Zoning Map.

As always, the work of volunteer board members is greatly appreciated. If you are interested in a position as an alternate member of either the Planning or Zoning Boards, please call 336-5727 ext 17, go online to www.town.hinsdale.nh.us or ask at Town Hall for an application.

54 Hinsdale Highway Department Annual Report

The start of 2017 brought on a usual amount of snow with it being a little more than usual at the end of the season and putting us over a little bit on our sand and salt budget with our overtime staying in good shape.

Spring brought on our annual job of cleaning town roads, sidewalks, and parking lots. We performed our annual repairs and maintenance to our snow equipment, then stored the equipment away for the year. Late spring early summer brought on the annual grading of dirt roads along with ditching, culvert and catch basin cleaning. During the summer and fall scheduled road maintenance and repairs were done, which consisted of shimming, paving, shoulder work, roadside mowing, and tree work was done on various roads throughout the town.

The last two months of the year we completed various little jobs around town along with preparing sanders, plows and other equipment for the winter season.

As always, the Highway Dept. would like to thank the residents of Hinsdale for their continued support. If you should have any questions or concerns feel free to contact me at (603)336-5716.

56 Hinsdale Millstream Community Recreation Committee Report on Activities 2017

The Hinsdale Community Recreation Committee is proud to have served the residents of Hinsdale for the past seventy-five years. We thought you might be interested in a few pieces of the History of this committee. Tuesday March 10, 1942- Article 14- To see if the Town will vote to raise and appropriate the sum of eighteen hundred seventy five dollar ($1,875.00) to purchase the land and buildings for a playground from the Playground Holding Association or act in any manner thereon. To choose seven members of a Playground Committee for the ensuing year. After and affirmative vote, members of the Playground Committee were elected by ballot. Monday March 14, 1977- Article 28-To see if the Town will vote to have the Playground Commissioners removed from the Town of Hinsdale Ballot and be appointed by the Board of Selectmen and each present terms expires or act in any manner thereon. Since this time, the Hinsdale Select Board has appointed the Committee In 1982, the name was changed to the Parks and Recreation Committee. In 2005, the Millstream Community Board and The Hinsdale Parks and Recreation Committee merged to become the Hinsdale Millstream Community Recreation Committee. By laws were adopted 2008 and presented to the Hinsdale Select Board and approved. By laws update 2014 to increase membership on the HMCRC, this was done in part because of the breakup of the Hinsdale Prevention Coalition, and we welcomed three members of that Board to join our Board. At this time, we welcomed the Hinsdale Farmer Market to be come under our umbrella. In 2017, we also welcomed the Hinsdale Beautification as another sub division of our group. We welcome new ideas and volunteers to help us with all endeavors. We meet the fourth Tuesday of every month; please join us if you would like to help in any of divisions! Millstream Community Center—Karen Johnson, Director The Hinsdale Community Center is available for both public and private functions. We have several long-term customers and clients we serve that we’d like to thank: • Congregate Meals and Meals on Wheels-- Monday through Friday • Age in Motion Exercise—Monday and Wednesdays 10:30 am-11:30 am. Our certified instructors lead classes focused on building strength, flexibility, and balance through low- impact workouts. • WIC Program: Every second Wednesday of the month from 12 pm to 4 pm • Blood Pressure Checks: Every third Wednesday of the month from 11:30 to 12:30 pm

57 • Weight Loss Challenge/Nutrition Group: Tuesdays at 6pm • Fuel Assistance: Months of September and October by appointment • Flu Shots: Given the third Wednesday of the month from September until the first of the year. 11:30 am to 12:30 pm • Hinsdale Chili Cook-off: First weekend in March • NEW in 2017: Civilize Your Dog obedience classes The Community Center would also like the public to know that in the front vestibule of the building, adjacent to Main Street, there is a box for the Lions Club Recycle for Sight. Any unwanted or lightly used glasses donations will help people in the community see better. The Community Center is also proud to host functions by the following local non-profit organizations: Earn-it-Program of Keene, Monadnock Developmental Services, Friends of Pisgah, Cal-Ripken youth baseball, Lions Club, North Hinsdale Community Church, Oak Hill Association, and the building serves as the polling location for the Town of Hinsdale. If you are looking for a local venue to host your birthday parties, baby showers, weddings, or just to celebrate, the Community Center would love to serve you. The facility, which can be subdivided, can hold up to 150 people, including kitchen facilities, and an amazing view of the waterfall. Please contact us at 603-336-5726 for availability and reservations. We’d also like to extend a tremendous thank you to Steve Buckley for his continuing donations of baked goods to the Senior Citizens throughout the year. Steve, and volunteers like him, are an invaluable resource, and we certainly couldn’t do it without you. Community Center Events- Chili Cook Off In March for the past six years, the Hinsdale Community Recreation Committee has held a chili cook-off. On March 5, 2017, there were seventeen entrants to the contest. Congratulations go out to First Place- Tim LeBlanc, Second Place- Joshua Hubbard, and Third Place Holly Kennedy. The next chili cook off will be held March 4, 2018 from 12:00 to 1:30, please get your chili to the Community Center by 11:45, tasting will be open to the public from noon to 1:15, winner will be announced at 1:30. Start perfecting your recipe now! Hinsdale Youth Sports—Brett Eastman, Director Our program would not be able to function without the help of a small army of volunteers. Whether it is coaches, referees, or ride sharing, the thankless volunteers make it all possible. A special thank you goes to Kim Simeon, who volunteers as our cheerleading coach. Soccer: Our soccer season began with 116 children, from Pre-K to 6th grade. We fielded 1 Pre-K team, one Kindergarten team, two 1st and 2nd grade teams, two 3rd and 4th grade, and two 5th and 6th grade teams. While our younger kids play locally against their peers, our 5th -6th grade team travels to surrounding towns in VT and northern MA to play, including the Putney Tournament at the end of the season.

58 Basketball: We have begun our season with 86 children participating in basketball, and 21 on the cheerleading squad. This is broken down into one Kindergarten team, two 1st and 2nd grade teams, two 3rd and 4th grade teams, two 5th and 6th grade teams, and Hinsdale’s first ever all girls team—consisting of 3rd- 6th graders. The 3rd through 6th grade squads compete in the Tri County Basketball League, which also travels to southern VT and into MA. Hinsdale Community Pool—Liz Boggio, Director The Hinsdale Town pool had yet another very busy season. Record number of people joining the water aerobics class and swim lessons were at their highest. The swim instructors did a fantastic job with lessons, all children improved and passed their individual tests. The summer camp and after camp programs use the pool daily. Although the pool is working, we still have concerns with the jets, not all are able to run at the same time, which causes a lot of buildup in the pool and dissatisfied customers. This will be looked at before opening season 2018. We have also been looking at raising money for a splash pad where the existing kiddy pool is. I feel that a splash pad will only enhance the pool area and bring more residents to use the pool area.

Hinsdale Day Camp—Tammy Stebbins, Director The Hinsdale Day Camp had a wonderful summer. They had about 140 enrolled with an average of 112 campers per day. Each week day camp was kicked off with a different theme. They had Fireman Steve Gassett discuss fire safety and what kids should do if there is ever a fire. They also had Officer D’Alessandro to discuss stranger danger. The middle school campers were able to go on many field trips. They went kayaking, swimming at Spofford lake, and Bounce to the indoor trampoline park. The Hinsdale Day Camp works very closely with Maryanne O’Malley and the HASP. Mrs. O’Malley helped set up trainings that the counselors

59 had to complete before camp started. Special acknowledgement and thanks to Jasmine Wallner of the Abbey Group for providing breakfast and lunch for the campers. The Hinsdale Pool Liz Boggio and her staff for the use of the pool and swim lessons. Thank you to counselor Robin McGrath, all the counselors, and junior counselors for all their hard work. Without their dedication, a successful day camp season would not be possible.

Hinsdale Beautification Committee-Karen Atkins Chair The Hinsdale Beautification Committee (HBC) accomplished its first full year working in collaboration with Hinsdale community members and groups. As a subcommittee of Parks and Recreation the HBC board members consists of; Karen Atkins (Chair), Jennifer Lepisto (Vice Chair), Kathryn Lynch (Treasurer), Alycia Hodgman (Secretary), Theresa Davis, Sarah Hudon and Kayla Matuszewski along with several other volunteers. We’d also like to recognize Megan Kondrat (former Chair) and Lindsey Blake (former Secretary) for their efforts into making this committee a success. HBC’s most noticeable activity has been the beautiful barrels of flowers along Main Street, in front of the Town Hall and within the River Park; both in the spring and fall. Liz Boggio took the lead in coordinating the flowers, however many volunteers assisted in the plantings. A special thank you to David Freitas who kept the flowers watered throughout the two seasons. During the winter, HBC brightened up Main Street with bright lights on the pine tree near the Community Center and additional white lights throughout the park. Another special thanks to Tim Nichols for putting the lights up, and all the other volunteers who helped with various events and activities. HBC also offered the following events to the Hinsdale Community: • Paint Nights at the Hinsdale Community Center • Make your own Fairy Gardens • 1st annual Art in the Park • Summer Kick Off (July 3rd) with fireworks, in collaboration with the Hinsdale Historical Society. • Octoberfest with the Farmer’s Market, including our 1st annual Corn Hole Tournament

60 • Tree Lighting Ceremony • Trunk or Treat at the Hinsdale Historical Society • Two town-wide Clean up Days • Floral Arrangements for Thanksgiving and Christmas • Holiday Lights contest and viewing map

Free Cooking Classes (cooking on a budget)

• Cookie Swap • Easter Bunny event • Chili Cook-off • Local Business Saver Cards We have heard very positive feedback from the community, along with those looking to move to Hinsdale. We have a strong volunteer base and we are always looking for more community members that want to be involved and are invested in keeping Hinsdale a community, not just a town.

Hinsdale Farmers Market- Theresa Davis

The Hinsdale Farmers Market strives to be a regional producer based market with an emphasis on agricultural products and locally produced products. Along with this goal is the aim of the market to meet the expectations of the customers of the Hinsdale community. In order to meet this goal we gladly welcome artisans and crafters to join our local agricultural/artisan producers.

The goals of the Hinsdale Farmers Market are:

· To increase access to fresh, locally produced, nourishing, and safe produce for all people.

· To encourage, support, and promote the entrepreneurial efforts of local, independent, and small-scale farmers, local growers, and local artisans, seeking to sell their products/produce directly to consumers.

61 · To create an opportunity for people to meet, eat, and share stories, recipes, and knowledge in a place dedicated to the cultivation of local products and talents.

· To strive to create an atmosphere that serves not only the market, but also contributes to a prosperous downtown area and promote a sense of community.

The 2017 market season was very exciting as we introduced many new vendors and offerings. We are looking forward to the 2018 season and the continued collaboration with the Hinsdale Beautification and Parks and Recreation Committees. The 2018 market season will run on Sundays from 10 am-2 pm, mid-May through October 7. Find us on Facebook “Hinsdale Farmers Market” for more details or contact Theresa Davis.

Girls on the Run Heart and Sole- Karyn Hammond, Gail Roberts, Kayla Hemlow and Sarah Ebbighausen Hinsdale Community Recreation Committee has partnered with HASP (Hinsdale After School Program) to host the Girls on the Run (GOTR) program, which was introduced at Hinsdale Elementary School in the fall of 2014. This 10- week after school program debuted in North Carolina in 1996. The program grew, and in 2000, Girls on the Run International, a 501(c)3 organization, was born. GOTR consists of activities and discussions that help girls from third to fifth grade (in Girls on the Run) and for girls from sixth to eighth grade (in the sister program, known as Heart & Sole) to develop a positive body image, healthy habits, and self-esteem, and how to face issues such as peer pressure, bullying, gossiping, and the media. Warm up activities and physical exercise incorporate strategies learned earlier from discussion. The girls have fun learning about themselves, teamwork, community service, and gain tools needed to ensure their social, emotional, and physical development. In 2015, GOTR served its millionth American girl, and continues to grow to this day (statistics previously referenced and additional information are available at www.girlsontherun.org). With the additional help of an anonymous local donor and additional fundraising by our Hinsdale volunteer coaches, traditional participation fees have been lowered significantly each season in order to enable many local girls to participate. The initial HES season, which was a trial season unique to Hinsdale that autumn, introduced GOTR to 22 girls. This culminated in a 5K Run/Walk on Halloween Day on the HES/HMHS grounds. Local and regional staff from the GOTR council were also there to celebrate with us. HES has since enjoyed three subsequent GOTR seasons in the springs of 2015-2017. HMHS students have participated in the Heart & Sole program in the spring seasons of 2016 (debut

62 year) and 2017, in conjunction with local and regional schools. This was all again possible with assistance from HASP and the anonymous local donor. Each season concludes with the annual exhilarating 5K Run/Walk at BUHS in May. Nationally, 90% of participants in GOTR participate in their regional 5K, attended by multiple area schools. HES and HMHS attendance at the GOTR 5K in Brattleboro exceeds that 90%, and we are very proud of our teams and girls! We are presently looking forward to and gearing up for another spring season (2018) of Heart & Sole at HMHS. We have two returning volunteer coaches this spring, who have been trained by GOTR council staff. We also welcome any additional volunteer interest and support, particularly to sponsor a GOTR team at the HES level in 2019. We can be contacted through HCRC to facilitate this. We at Hinsdale Community Recreation Committee are proud to offer this program to our local school-aged girls, and hope to do so for many seasons to come. On a final note, we would like to sincerely thank Maryanne O’Malley of HASP for her heartfelt and financial support of our GOTR and Heart & Sole programs since 2014. We also extend thanks to Ann Freitag and all HMHS staff for accommodating both the GOTR and Heart & Sole teams in the early spring seasons during colder and inclement weather. This has enabled us to train and learn indoors at HMHS until warmer and ice-free weather allowed us to move outside!

Over the past several years I have continually reported on the volume of cases and calls for service we have had through the year. Unfortunately, this volume has not decreased and has remained the same or slightly increased in certain areas such as disturbances and crimes of violence.

The opioid epidemic remains a problem for the entire state and Hinsdale has not been shielded from this. We have investigated multiple opioid overdoses and deaths this year. We continue to work closely with outside state, local and federal agencies to combat this and have made several proactive drug arrests within our community. Our efforts have also assisted other agencies in making arrests in other states and NH communities. The drugs that are affecting our community are regularly coming from other states and we are 100% supportive of other law enforcement efforts to combat this. Even though the arrest statistic or press release may not show Hinsdale as the arresting agency we are heavily involved to ensure we combat this issue at all levels.

Recently we assisted in a multi-jurisdictional gun theft investigation where multiple handguns, long guns and assault rifles had been stolen throughout the tri-state area. This investigation ultimately led to the identification of three Hinsdale residents that were

64 responsible for these crimes. These subjects are being held accountable and are facing charges in multiple states. This is just one of many egregious cases we have investigated and made arrests on.

Last year you graciously voted for the addition of two police officers to the department to help with our increased call volume and call response time. We have been fortunate to hire Sgt. Michael Carrier, Detective Melissa Evans and Officer Adam Belville to the force. Each of these officers come to us from Vermont and they all have extensive law enforcement experience totaling over 40 years of combined experience. They are an absolute asset to our department and we are blessed to have them as part of our team.

Additionally, our Animal Control Officer, Ashley Pinger, continues to be an incredible asset to our department. She regularly handles hundreds of calls a year and conducts a large amount of investigations involving vicious animals that are a threat to our community, animal abuse/cruelty, and nuisance animals. Ashley has identified hundreds of K9s that have not been registered pursuant to NH law and Town ordinance and ensure compliance is met. Although this may seem simple to some, ensuring that K9s within our community are registered also ensures they are medically cared for and have received their rabies vaccine. We have had a few cases of K9 bites that have resulted in a community member needing the rabies series due to the animal not being vaccinated. This is a painful and expensive process that can be avoided by simply ensuring compliance. Ashley has been very proactive with our prosecutor’s office and successfully handled the removal of several animals that are being mistreated or are an absolute danger to our community. The owners have been held accountable and the animals are no longer a threat to us. Ashley is also an absolute asset in the education she provides and is one of the highest trained and certified Animal Control Officers in the State of NH.

Many of you have seen that we are ramping up our notifications and communication to the community through our Facebook page and website. We try to put fun items out at times as well as update you on some of the things we are dealing with weekly. We hope to continue this and increase the volume in 2018. During the holiday season this year we partnered with Wal-Mart and handed out approximately $250.00 in gift cards to town residents that our patrol officers observed doing good things. As officers saw acts of good deeds, law compliance, etc. they made contact with our residents, thanked them and provided them with a gift card to use at our local Wal-Mart. We would like to personally thank everyone who is keeping our community safe and doing good deeds for others.

Last year we also worked hard on several community programs within our schools as well as throughout the community. Recently our School Resource Officer, in conjunction with SAU-92 administration (applied for and received) a grant, totaling $35,366 to increase safety in our schools. As of the writing of this report we are also waiting to hear on the status of two other grants totaling $67,850 for similar purposes. These grants required a significant amount of work and planning and we are very pleased with the outcome. Our SRO also attended several schools this year as well as the National Conference where he received a lot of advanced training. He continues to do many educational programs in the school from DARE to Cyber Safety programs as well as investigate all our Juvenile crimes. These included crimes committed by our youth but, also crimes committed against them.

65 Lastly, I would like to personally thank our Fire Department and town crews. Over the past several months we have had many calls that required the services of our officers, our Fire Department and our town crews. It is always a pleasure to have such a quick response from everyone and the professionalism is nothing short of outstanding. Our Fire Department First Response is regularly helping our citizens in times of need and our town crews are always willing to help us in any capacity needed to ensure a situation is controlled in the best way possible.

Sincerely,

Todd A. Faulkner Chief of Police

84 TOWN OF HINSDALE, N.H. WASTEWATER TREATMENT PLANT Robert J. Johnson – Superintendent Phone 603-336-5714 Jon C. Roy- Operator Fax 603-336-5711 P.O. Box 72 - 120 River Road E-Mail Address: Hinsdale, N.H. 03451 [email protected]

2017 Annual Report ( 38 Years of Operation ) Our highest priority continues to be the need to reduce the groundwater that is ending up at the plant. In 2017 the Treatment Plant treated 67.6 million gallons that flowed through the facility with a total rainfall amount of 50.81 inches for the year. This flow produced 169,000 gallons of waste sludge that was removed from the process and hauled away for disposal by 26 truck loads. This calculated out to 19,604 dry/lbs or 9.81 dry tons of sludge that was produced. Again this year as a notice to all residents on the sewer system, our Sewer Ordinance prohibits the discharge of ground and surface waters from sump pumps, floor drains, roof drains or foundation drains into the sewer system. Discharges of these types of clean water are illegal and not only add to the cost of treatment and your sewer bill, they can cause problems with the process at the plant during periods of wet weather that have caused the plant to violate our EPA discharge permit. We need to eliminate these inflow sources. Anyone who is still illegally disposing of their clean water problems by discharging it into the sewer system must contact us so that we can work with you to find a better solution to your problem before we find you. We will be conducting studies to find the violators and when you are found, you can be subject to a civil penalty of up to $10,000.00 per day of such violation in accordance with State Law RSA 149-I, specifically Section 149-I:6. We need our sewer users to do everything you can to assist yourselves and us by keeping these types of clean water out of the sewer system. The Town of Hinsdale’s National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System Permit that is issued by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the State of NH Department of Environmental Services regulates all of the things that we must do, from the Operations and Maintenance of the Collection System, to the Operations and Maintenance of the Treatment Plant, to the requirements for the amounts of nutrients and pollutants that are allowed to be in our effluent water that we discharge to the Ashuelot River. Compliance is mandatory or Fines may be imposed upon the Town. We do realize that the costs associated with producing clean water from sewage are very high and we do our best to keep costs as low as possible. Our ongoing efforts to make improvements with the aging infrastructure in the Collection System and equipment at the Wastewater Pumping Stations and Treatment Plant will continue as funding allows. There is an old saying amongst the wastewater industry, Clean Water or Die. Sort of true!

We thank everyone for their continued cooperation and support.

Respectfully submitted, Robert J. Johnson WWTP Superintendent

85 Hinsdale Welfare Department Annual Report Welfare Department walk-in hours: Monday 8:30 – 11:30 am, Wednesday 12:30 – 3:00 pm All other times are by appointment only Phone (603) 336-5710 Ext. 18 and Fax (603) 336-5711

The Welfare Department assists residents of the Town of Hinsdale with emergency shelter, rental assistance, utility payments, medications, food and gas vouchers, fuel assistance and many other emergency situations. We have implemented a program to assist senior citizens, living on fixed incomes, with emergency fuel assistance during the winter season. The Department also works in coordination with many local organizations and businesses to assist families for the Thanksgiving and Christmas Holidays. It would be difficult to assist families in need without the aide and assistance from local groups and residents. The Welfare Department offers a food pantry full of non-perishable food items, some frozen foods as well as personal and household cleaning items. In 2017 there were more than 40 visits to the Food Pantry serving 75 residents. The First Congregational Church patrons and youth group have helped with food drives throughout the year providing much needed food and personal/household items for the Pantry shelves. The Fire Department paired with Project Feed the Thousands and held a Boot Drive. They raised over $2500 for the Food Pantry. The Elementary School and Middle/High School Student Council each held successful food drives. The Middle/High School FBLA held a dance with proceeds donated to the Pantry. Walmart in Hinsdale partnered with Project Feed the Thousands and prepared bags of food for purchase. We received over 45 bags of food. Lil’ Day Care held two collections for the Pantry this year, supplying us with a variety of needed items. Joyful Events Photography/Crowned Stars of NE helped fill our shelves during the summer months with many wonderful items. The Pantry shelves are full! With the help of The Salvation Army we were able to assist families with many services including clothing, household items, perishable food vouchers, rent and utility payments. During the Thanksgiving and Christmas Seasons we were able to provide food baskets to 20 families who otherwise may not have had a Holiday meal. We were able to do this in conjunction with the Lion’s Club and Knights of Columbus. This Christmas the Welfare Office was able to help 34 children from 17 families have a wonderful holiday with gifts of clothes, toys and food cards under the tree. To all the people that donated to the local families this year, I would like to take this time to sincerely thank you and also to thank the community organizations that helped to make this possible including: The employees of SAU 92, PTA (elementary school), Hinsdale Elementary/ Middle/High Schools, Lions Club, Knights of Columbus, The First Congregational Church of Hinsdale and their Youth Group, Project Feed the Thousands, Keene Marine Corps Toys for Tots, Walmart, The Fire Department, Robin and Judy Beauregard, Catholic Daughters, Lil’ Day Care, Joyful Events Photography/Crowned Stars of NE and The Salvation Army. Many local residents, too numerous to count, donated from the goodness of their hearts and it is greatly appreciated. If you are in need of assistance but are not able to come during regular business hours, please call to make an appointment so that we can arrange an alternative time. The Welfare Office is wheelchair accessible through the Depot Street entrance. Application forms and information about other places you can receive assistance are available during Town Hall hours Mon-Thurs. 7:30-12, 12:30-4, in the lobby and on the Town of Hinsdale website. http://hinsdale.govoffice.com)

In 1967, he became principal of Hinsdale High School, a position he held for 18 years. From 1985 until his retirement in 1997, he was the Assistant Superintendent of Schools for SAU # 38 Monadnock Regional School District. Dick was a strong leader with a great sense of humor, a contagious smile, and a supporter of new initiatives.

Report of the Hinsdale School Board 2017-2018

Citizens of Hinsdale

On behalf of the Hinsdale School Board I would like to welcome you to the 2018 Annual Hinsdale School District Meeting. This past year has been an exciting time for the District. At last year’s District Meeting, we were fortunate to have overwhelming community support for the Hinsdale Elementary School building project, which passed with a 93% affirmative vote. The project was the only school building project approved by the New Hampshire Department of Education and the Legislature this session. There are so many people who pulled together to find a fiscally responsible solution to the space issues, tirelessly reached out to the community, and worked to secure state aid for the project. The School Board is truly appreciative of the hard work and dedication of the members of the Building Improvement Committee (BIC). The Committee was comprised of the following members from many segments of the community: Jim O’Malley-Chair, Steve Fecto- Vice- Chair, James MacDonell, Joe Boggio, Sean Leary, Deb Carrier, Shawn Lee, Courtney Hodge, April Anderson, Kaylah Hemlow, Kathy Bean, Tom O’Connor, and Wayne Woolridge. We also received strong support at the state level from outgoing New Hampshire Senator Molly Kelly, current State Senator Jay Kahn, and State Representative Mike Abbott. We would like extend our deepest appreciation to Hinsdale resident Edwin “Smokey” Smith for helping us secure the land to make this project possible. The support and caring of the community makes Hinsdale a special place to live and we offer our sincere gratitude and appreciation for everything that each member of our community does every day for the children of Hinsdale.

Working toward achieving the Board’s goal to provide students with educational opportunities and learning based upon each student’s unique needs, interests, and learning styles, we continued to expand programming focused on personalized learning. Many of our students are earning certifications through their participation in our Extended Learning Opportunity (ELO) program and at the Windham Regional Career Center. We are especially excited about the growth of our ELO program. When our ELO program began in 2010 it had six students in grade 12 only and one community business partner. This year the program has grown to over 50 students in grades 9-12, and works with approximately 100 different businesses from across three states and several counties. The program has become a model for other schools across New Hampshire, and our ELO Coordinator, Karen Thompson, has been chosen as the 2018 New Hampshire Extended Learning Opportunity Coordinator of the Year and will be honored at the New Hampshire Excellence in Education Awards ceremony this spring. Congratulations to Karen on this achievement and for being instrumental in growing this program, which provides valuable and exciting opportunities for our students.

On behalf of the Board, I would like to thank outgoing Board member Tina McCosker for her six years of dedicated service. Tina represented the Board on numerous committees as

6 well as being the driving force behind instituting annual clothing swaps which benefit children of all ages as well as adults in the community.

Throughout the upcoming year, the Board plans to continue to host community forums on a variety of topics. We appreciate the community participation and input in these forums and look forward to continuing this increased level of dialogue with the community. All are welcome and encouraged to attend our regular meetings, which are held on the second Wednesday of each month at 6:15 pm at the SAU 92 office. Agendas, minutes, and Board member contact information can be found at www.hnhsd.org

Report of the Superintendent of Schools 2017-2018

From our $2,250,000 Hinsdale Elementary School building grant, which was approved by the New Hampshire Department of Education, the New Hampshire School Board, the New Hampshire House, and Senate, and signed into law by Governor Sununu, to the statewide recognition of our successful Extended Learning Opportunities program, we have much to celebrate this year.

The Hinsdale Elementary School building addition/renovation is scheduled for completion on August 21, 2018. The addition will include three first grade classrooms, three kindergarten classrooms, a music room, and an art room. All the rooms in the addition will be on the ground floor. The renovation consists of some existing Hinsdale elementary school first-floor rooms as well as the mechanical systems that will serve both the existing Hinsdale Elementary School and the addition. The estimated total cost of the proposed building expansion/renovation is $3,750,000. The Hinsdale Elementary School project was the only school building aid project approved by the New Hampshire Department of Education and by the New Hampshire Legislature this past session.

Without the strong support of voters at the 2017 Annual District Meeting, we would not likely have been able to garner the necessary votes from the New Hampshire Legislature needed to secure the building grant. The 93% Hinsdale voter approval at the 2017 Annual District Meeting was a common topic of conversation among state officials and others with ties to K-12 education. For example, in a story that ran in the “Brattleboro Reformer” on November 3, 2017, Frank Marinace, CEO of Marinace Architects, said he was amazed by the community’s dedication to their schools. “I’ve seen a lot of votes over my 43 years and I’ve never seen 93 percent,” Marinace said. “This part of the State really wants to get it right.”

We have already received $1,800,000 of the promised building aid from the State. In addition, $450,000 is promised at the completion of our project. We recently received another $1,500,000 because of the sale of our Hinsdale School District building bond, which was recently presented to the New Hampshire Bond Bank by our Business Administrator. We received an interest rate of 2.856 percent on our 20-year bond. We had budgeted for an interest rate of 4 percent.

We have many individuals and groups to thank for this needed facility improvement including the following: our voters at our 2017 District Meeting, the Hinsdale School Board, the New Hampshire Board of Education, Governor Sununu, the New Hampshire Legislature, New Hampshire Commissioner of Education Frank Edelblut, and the 2016-2017 Hinsdale School District’s Building Improvement Committee. The Hinsdale Building Improvement Committee members included the following: Jim O’Malley-Chair, Steve Fecto-Vice Chair, James MacDonell, Joe Boggio, Sean Leary, Deb Carrier, Shawn Lee, Courtney Hodge, April Anderson, Kaylah Hemlow, and Tom O’Connor. I would also like to thank the New Hampshire Department of Education Chief Engineer Amy Clark, Hinsdale resident Smoky Smith, former State Senator Molly Kelly, current State Senator Jay Kahn, State Representative Mike Abbott, and Hinsdale resident Kathy Bean.

On Saturday, October 28th, the Hinsdale School Board held a groundbreaking ceremony for our addition/renovation project. Hinsdale student Chase Anderson led those present in the “Pledge of Allegiance.” Honored speakers for the event included the following: New Hampshire Commissioner of Education Frank Edelblut, Hinsdale School Board Chair Holly Kennedy, and Hinsdale Building Improvement Committee Chair James O’Malley. The event concluded with all five Hinsdale School Board members, as well as Hinsdale Schools supporter Smokey Smith, taking a ceremonial first shovel full of dirt to mark the first step towards the construction of an our elementary school addition and the renovation of part of the existing first floor of Hinsdale Elementary School.

The construction project is now underway. We determined that the heavy equipment would use the Prospect Street entrance and when possible avoid bus drop off and pick up congestion. After consulting with Hinsdale school administrators we agreed that the Hinsdale Elementary School summer programs, such as our extended year learning program and our summer preschool program, will use space at Hinsdale Middle/High School during the summer of 2018.

As we developed the 2018-2019 operating budget, we faced the challenge of meeting our operational budget demands while continuing to deal with a reduction in anticipated State revenue. State funding continues to be reduced while healthcare and retirement costs are rising. One example is the contribution to our retirement obligations. For decades, New Hampshire paid 40% of school employee retirement costs. Today the State pays nothing toward the retirement for school district employees. Consequently, both the district and the employees have dramatically increased their contributions.

In December, area legislators met with Hinsdale administrators and Hinsdale Board members Sean Leary and Jim O’Malley. We discussed upcoming legislation. It was clear that the legislators present were sympathetic to our concerns related to the current State revenue shortfall to Hinsdale and its impact on our local tax rate. The largest loss of revenue from the State is due to a cut in June of 2017 of $100,000 to our stabilization grant.

Many similar communities in Cheshire County have also recently been hit hard by the combination of a State revenue shortfall and a decrease of the total of taxable property values in their community. For example, current tax rates among like communities in Cheshire County are as follows:

In Keene, the tax rate is $37.22 per $1,000 of assessed value. In Troy, the tax rate is $34.19 per $1,000 of assessed value. In Winchester, the tax rate is $33.30 per $1,000 of assessed value. In Jaffrey, the tax rate is $32.97 per $1,000 of assessed value. In Sullivan, the tax rate is $31.80 per $1,000 of assessed value. In Hinsdale, the tax rate is $30.41 per $1,000 of assessed value. In Marlborough, the tax rate is $30.17 per $1,000 of assessed value.

Hinsdale continues to stand out as a district that acquires a high percentage of State and Federal grants to offset local taxes. I am proud of our effort to provide a high level of grant funding. As a percentage of our expenditures, we typically procure approximately 10% more in grant funds than is common among New Hampshire Districts. This year we lead the State, largely due to our $2,250,000 building aid grant. 9

Other recent competitive grants include $25,000 from the New Hampshire Department of Education, which will enable us to provide necessary staff training as part of Story Preservation Initiative. With its archival home at the Library of Congress, Story Preservation Initiative provides easy access to a rich collection of oral histories for integration into our curricula.

In October Hinsdale School District was awarded a Small, Rural School Achievement grant of $15,000. Our Business Administrator and our Director of Curriculum and Instruction did the complicated work needed to help secure this grant.

In December, we were awarded a $25,000 robotics grant thanks to the hard work of our Hinsdale Middle/High School media specialist, Victoria Davis.

In January of 2018, we received security grants from the State totaling $28,293. Our School Resource Officer Marcello D’Alessandro, our Director of Technology, Debbie Trabucco, and our Business Administrator Tom O’Connor all participated in the grant application process. The security items funded were all identified as areas of need in the security audit completed in the spring of 2016.

There are many areas where we have worked hard to create savings. For example, we recently received an Award of Excellence from Presence Learning. Our award was one of twelve given across the country for use of live, online speech-language therapy and psychoeducational services to help support students with special needs. I applaud our Director of Student Services, Julie Fenrich for demonstrating sound stewardship of District resources while meeting the needs of students who need speech or psychological services.

In an effort to generate other sources of revenue, the Hinsdale Education Foundation was formed in March of 2017. The Hinsdale Education Foundation has been approved as a 501 (c) 3 nonprofit and is now registered with both the IRS and the New Hampshire Attorney General’s Office. The officers of the Hinsdale Education Foundation are as follows: President, Jim O’Malley; Vice Chair, Steve Bonnette; Treasurer, Fred Moriarty, Secretary Ann Diorio and Director, Holly Kennedy. The Foundation Board members are hopeful that individual contributions and/or business/corporate contributions may help support our Hinsdale schools without adding to the property tax bill. The Hinsdale Education Foundation’s first fund raising event is the Richard T. McCarthy Golf Tournament scheduled for May 19, 2018 at 9:00 am at the Northfield Country Club.

Our Extended Learning Opportunity program continues to gain attention from State education leaders. Most recently, our new Commissioner Frank Edelblut praised the relationship Hinsdale School District has with our business community. Approximately 120 area businesses work with us through our Extended Learning Opportunity Coordinator, Karen Thompson. Karen Thompson was recently named “New Hampshire Extended Learning Opportunities Educator of the Year.”

We are making progress towards a system migration towards a student competency education model. We recently made modifications to our Hinsdale High School Program of Studies to better reflect the move towards a competency-based education model.

10

All our Hinsdale High School students are receiving individualized instruction for three days each week in math and English. Our after school program is another opportunity for our students to participate in a personalized learning program. Somedays we have in excess of 100 Hinsdale students participating in our after school program.

Largely because of our Extended Learning Opportunity program, graduating Hinsdale students should be better prepared for college and career than most graduating seniors in our area and across the United States. We have made significant progress in regards to empowering our students to determine their individual educational pathways. We are working hard to create an individualized education plan for each student. New Hampshire Commissioner of Education Frank Edelblut spent a full day in our schools shortly after being appointed to his post. He is a strong advocate of the Hinsdale personalized learning competency-based program.

In addition, many of our students are earning certifications because of their Extended Learning Opportunity work and their work at the Windham Regional Career Center. One member of the Hinsdale Senior Class has accumulated seven certifications.

We continue to work on the development of performance-based assessments. These assessments will better engage our students, especially those students with unique needs, interests, and learning styles. In addition to our work on performance assessments, we are working hard to develop a more responsive learning system, which is founded on the Professional Learning Community model.

In early August 2017, a team from Hinsdale Elementary School attended the New Hampshire Educator’s Summer Summit at the University of New Hampshire. Major strands included “teaching for the future” and “how to improve literacy from birth to age eight.” In July, a team of educators from Hinsdale Middle/High School attended the Competency-Based Learning Conference in Nashua, New Hampshire. The major stands included “personalized learning including extended learning opportunities,” and PACE – (performance assessment of competency education).” PACE for New Hampshire schools is an approved accountability system by the U.S. Department of Education. PACE is a “learning system designed to capitalize on the latest advances in understanding of how people learn. The goal is to structure learning opportunities that allow students to grapple with gaining meaningful knowledge and skills at a depth of understanding that they can transfer to new real-world situations.” Our District PACE committee under the leadership of our Director of Curriculum and Instruction, Karen Craig, is working hard in an effort to accomplish this goal. Members of our School District PACE Committee include the following school district educators: Tom Ronning, Ann Freitag, Brad Venice, Christine Bowker, Jennifer Taggart, Jodie Holmquist, Joe Boggio, Juliet Fenrich, Kaitlin Adams, Karen Craig, Karen Thompson, Matthew Kennedy, Peter Hughes, and Sarah Burgess.

If we accomplish our PACE Committee objectives we will likely also become a “Pathway District.” New Hampshire is a leader among states in support the effort of “Pathway Districts. By becoming a Pathway District, we would be increasing the likelihood that our grant applications would be successful and at the same time increase our likelihood of attracting new revenue streams. Many national organizations, such as the “Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation” have agreed to support the New Hampshire effort to develop pathway districts.

11

Our Board continues to work hard to accomplish Board Goals. Under the Board Communication Goal one action item reads, “Maintain communication to promote a collaborative relationship with the community through a continued commitment to holding a minimum of two forums and maintaining a presence in other committees, boards, and community events in town.” Currently the Board is planning to hold a public forum in April and another public forum in May. The level of cooperation among Board members, and the commitment of their time to the District is extraordinary.

Hinsdale parent involvement is also extraordinary. For example, we experienced approximately 90% of our parents in attendance at our most recent Hinsdale Elementary School Open House. Our after school program has personal contact at the end of the day with approximately 100 Hinsdale families.

I believe a quality education is more important to our children’s future than ever before. Therefore, our responsibility to do what we can to ensure that our students receive a quality education is greater than ever. Having completed my second year as your school superintendent, it has become crystal clear that Hinsdale is a remarkable school district that has the strong and enthusiastic support of the community as well as a talented, dedicated staff overseeing the education of Hinsdale students. On behalf of the Hinsdale School District, I would ask the community to continue to show its support by attending the District Meeting on Saturday, March 17th at 10:30 a.m. in our middle school/high school gym.

Respectfully Submitted, Wayne Woolridge Superintendent

Hinsdale Middle High School Principal’s Report 2017-2018

The faculty and administration remain dedicated to providing the best possible learning experiences for all students, with a vision of supporting the habits of life-long learning, enabling students to be college and career ready.

As a professional learning community, we annually refine our mission and 21st century learning expectations with input from the parents and students. To further support the learning expectations, the faculty has developed a vision or profile of the Hinsdale graduate:

The graduate of Hinsdale Middle/High School will have demonstrated the ability to achieve and apply appropriate academic and technical knowledge in authentic ways. This includes demonstrating essential work habits, such as creativity, critical thinking, communicating effectively, collaboration, and problem solving. These essential habits promote the graduate’s ability to align their knowledge and skills in support of future career opportunities. Further, the graduate will demonstrate optimism as well as responsibility regarding their role as citizens in the broader community. The Hinsdale Middle/High School Core Values and 21st Century Learning Expectations are guidelines for supporting the Profile of a Hinsdale Graduate.

In alignment with our New England Schools and Colleges Accreditation process as well as the New Hampshire Department of Education initiative to promote more performance-based assessments as evidence of competency in learning, we are personalizing learning through the following:

 Continuation of the advisory program for 21st century learning expectations and the Hinsdale Intervention Plan to personalize interventions based on student achievement data and to provide enrichment opportunities during the school day;  Expansion of our rigorous student portfolio process and exhibitions for Extended Learning Opportunities, with pre-ELO’s for underclassmen, and site-based opportunities for career exploration/work study;  Continued instruction for students in the Social-Emotional Learning curriculum, with on-going professional development support for teachers, through Second Step in grades 6-8, and School Connect in grades 9-12;  Middle school classes of robotics, coding, the arts, guidance/ career, and science experiments;  Initiation of year one in the five year Technology Plan to provide “one-to- one” technology access for students  Emphasis on essential questions in each curricular area, with the development of more performance based assessments as articulated in the written curriculum; 35

 Articulation of competency based pathways outlined in the program of studies, with links to the associated career clusters;  Extension of rigorous offerings through dual-enrollment college credit classes in English, math, science, and business as well as Advanced Placement classes in math, English, and social studies;  Before and after school programming for middle school students through HASP, including homework assistance, structured physical activities, and special enrichment classes.

Our teachers have demonstrated a strong commitment to the programming described above, as evidenced by their application of professional development geared to improve instruction through technology use, reading and writing strategies using the Keys to Literacy, Next Generation Science Standards, and collaboration on performance based assessment. We are proud of our students and equally grateful for support of the Hinsdale Community, thank you.

Respectfully submitted,

Ann Freitag Principal Hinsdale Middle High School

Hinsdale Elementary School Principal’s Report 2017-2018

Any organization must set goals and implement plans to achieve their goals to be successful. The goals for HES include personalizing learning for all students, engaging parents, and the greater community in the school activities, hiring and retaining a quality staff, creating a safe and welcoming environment, and conducting our affairs in a fiscally responsible manner.

Personalized Learning We use many forms of information to measure our progress in helping children learn, grow, and be well adjusted socially and good citizens. In addition, we are always expanding our ability to respond to the needs of the children quickly. As a district, we have begun to study the opportunities provided by the state of New Hampshire to truly change the way we measure student progress using local performance based assessments. Making the change will lead to more engaged students and will result in parents having a better understanding of what their children know and are able to do. We continue to support our staff with training in Keys to Literacy, focusing on writing skills this year. We believe this program will lay the foundation for a solid base to literacy and is being used district wide to ensure continuity and success. We have also embarked on the use of a new math program at HES named Bridges Math. Although it is only our first year, I am excited by the program because it really stretches the students to be mathematical thinkers versus simply being told a series of steps and memorizing the steps.

Parent/Community Engagement The overwhelming support for the building addition and renovation vote last March served as another fine example of how our community supports our local education system. I was involved in the previous project that was completed in 2007 when taxpayers made the difficult, but correct decision, to maintain our high school and upgrade to a middle school concept. With 93% of the voters in favor of the building addition, we now have the opportunity to create an environment to meet the needs of our growing student population at the primary grades. There are far too many individuals to list and thank for their role in making the project successful – so Thank You Everyone! The project is due to begin the first week of February 2018. At HES, we also get support from community businesses and civic organizations. Without their help, we would have a difficult time funding all the extra programs provided at the school. We are truly lucky to have a great before and after school program that serves at least one third of our students each day, providing a safe environment for children and benefitting families at the same time.

Quality staff Our most valuable resource is our dedicated staff. That includes all the people who work at HES - without them we are nothing. They are the people who help our children grow and learn in a world that is changing so fast that many of the jobs our students will obtain have not even been created yet!

Safety At HES, we are continuously reviewing, updating, and practicing safety plans. Most recently, the school and district has completed an application for a grant from the state of New Hampshire to improve the security of the school building. The administrative team has engaged in several “table- top” exercises designed to identify areas to improve upon in emergencies.

37

Fiscal Responsibility At HES, we do our best to balance being fiscally thoughtful and responsible so as not to take advantage of our communities’ contributions, while still providing the best well rounded education we possibly can. Improving student achievement is not done overnight but through daily efforts and persistence, with a focus on the right things, and students who are ready to learn, great things can be accomplish.

Joseph J. Boggio Principal Hinsdale Elementary School

Hinsdale Middle High School Health Services 2017-2018

Hinsdale Middle/High School seeks to promote and provide the optimum level of health and wellness for our students and staff. The full-time Registered Nurse assigned to the school provides direct care to students and staff, presents professional development information and training, supplies referrals to other healthcare services, interfaces with students’ primary care physicians as requested by parents, and provides support and reports to various school and district stakeholders.

Health screenings for hearing, vision, height, weight, and spinal development are conducted, as requested. Screenings to support students’ individual education plans are conducted. Referrals to other healthcare professionals are provided as needed.

Immunization and health records for students are maintained and audited according to the State of NH Division of Public Health standards.

The school nurse assists families in accessing necessary immunizations, physical examinations, warm winter clothing through various resources, eyeglasses through the Hinsdale Lion’s Club and Wal-Mart, low or no-cost health assessments and immunizations through ConvenientMD, and health insurance through NH Healthy Kids.

In addition to assisting students, the school nurse assists staff members with a variety of health- related issues. Staff members are offered acute care, as needed. Monitoring of chronic conditions such as hypertension and diabetes is conducted. Post-surgery review and reinforcement of plans of care is offered. The school nurse also supplies referrals to other healthcare services, conducts research on pertinent health topics, and interfaces with staff members’ primary care physicians as requested.

In the first four months of the school year, at the middle/high school, 2,375 visits to the school nurse were logged. 1,649 of these visits were designated as “acute care.” This category includes issues such as headaches, gastro-intestinal concerns, cuts and scrapes, sore throats, and strains and sprains. Also included in this category are impairment assessments and urine drug screens. 380 visits were reported as “chronic care.” This category includes care for chronic illnesses such as diabetes, asthma, and epilepsy; and the dispensing of regularly scheduled medications taken during the school day. 346 visits were designated under the category of “wellness.” This includes such matters as dental hygiene, skin care, and personal hygiene. This year, more than three dozen staff members received seasonal flu vaccines.

As a “frontline” healthcare provider for the Middle/High School, I would like to express my gratitude to our school administrators, parents, families, and community members who support our school health program. Keeping our students and staff healthy helps keep them in school!

Thank you. Respectfully Submitted,

Jan Zalneraitis, RN School Nurse, Hinsdale High /Middle School

Hinsdale Elementary School Health Services 2017-2018

Health survey forms, physicals, and immunizations: I continue to request health forms for updated information and permission to administer medications at school. To Date there are still 6 students out of compliance with their physicals and immunizations. These are primarily a result of students who were here for preschool and never got the update documents upon entering kindergarten. In April, a notice goes home with those students reminding them. The second reminder went out just before Christmas break 2017.

October 2017 Flu Clinic through Health Trust: Approximately 27 staff members were vaccinated. Clinic went smoothly and included some town employees as well. Dr. Idlekope came in end of October 2017 for a student flu clinic and we did about 18 students. Again, this year it was only the injectable.

Cheshire Smiles Dental Program: this year due to time, constraint and funding cleanings were only provided to the third grade with permission from parent. With permission, screenings were done for all grade levels and fluoride applied where indicated. Education was provide through 3rd grade. Cheshire Smiles had a new system whereby they used laptops and new software to log all the children immediately for print out but ran into difficulties, as they did not have proper building access for computer connection. They will be back in March to do the second fluoride application.

Health and Hygiene: Steve Fecto and I teamed up in November 2017 and did an hour-long presentation to the 4th and 5th grade boys and girls about growth changes, good hygiene, and how to prevent lice infestation Permission slips were sent home with a brief synopsis of what would be taught. We utilized the following videos for all of these programs; Whatsa Hygiene, Clean Kids, Growing up for Boys Fifth Grade and Always Changing for Fifth Grade girls. For fourth grade, we use Just around the Corner for boys and girls. Again, this was not enough time for the girls. They had many questions that went unanswered, as the class was not given last February as usual. The teachers were very accommodating and saw the need so we were able to put in another session, which helped, but still there were many questions unanswered.

Lions Club Operation KidSight was a newly acquired community program. Through a grant from the Lions Club International Foundation, this program has been made possible. They go to schools and help screen various classes using a special machine called a Spot Screener. It takes a picture of the child’s eyes and then gives a print out of the exam and indication of a referral is needed or not and why a referral. They bring their own printer and screening team. After doing the exams, the data that was loaded into the camera is then deleted. It is extremely accurate and time saving for me. This process was used for the Kindergarten and first grade. We hope to add third grade next year. Kindergarten had 42 screened and first grade had 60 screened. There were 10 referrals. To date there has been no response from those parents about follow up. A second notice went out before Christmas break.

The Holiday Assistance Committee: In November 2017 and December 2017 as a school community, we participated in Feed the Thousands and Brattleboro Marine Corps Toys for Kids. Feed the Thousands collected over 25 boxes of nonperishable food items, which all went to the Hinsdale Welfare Office. Steve Fecto heads this program. Ms. Adams class won the pizza party for the most collected. The Toys for Kids program, headed by myself, collected 4 barrels of unwrapped toys. We had extremely wonderful winter clothing donations made by Trevor Lange and his work group, Catholic Daughters, McKenzie Bonnette and her family, donations of handmade mittens and 40 beautiful Christmas Trees donated by the Clark family. At the very last week before Christmas we found out of 4 families who needed help or there would be no Christmas. It was amazing how the staff came together and other community members with no children here at school. The 27 Bar and Grill in Keene where Kate A works did a fundraiser to help families in the Keene and surrounding areas. They adopted one of our families and provide winter clothing and toys. All the other families were well taken care right here through our dedicated school staff and community elves. Over half of the winter clothing brought by Trevor Lange went to our Welfare Office to complete the list of requests that Darlene had shared with me. This community has a wonderful caring and giving spirit.

Hearing and vision testing: Completed on students in October – December 2017. Kindergarten still has to be done. Schedule to busy this year with student mental health issues and an increase in early illnesses/flu like. Notices of failures and phone calls went out to families needed interventions. A second follow up on certain students has also been completed. There continues to be a group of students that we follow 2-3 times during the year due to fluctuations.

Nursing Duties: This again has been a most difficult year collecting current physicals and immunizations for kindergarten and preschool children. An early rise in illness and behavior issues has kept me very busy. I still am trying to find time to get all the health plans updated.

Emergency Response Team: The team has been working on the Reunification procedure with all the information that Officer D and Mr. Boggio have been providing us. Trying to find a meeting time that works for all has been extremely difficult.

Training: I have continued to do small health presentations for the paras, Epi-pen, blood borne pathogens, seizure management, asthma management, and basic classroom first aid. I will be doing a presentation for the paras in February and March 2018.

Hinsdale Elementary School-Cheshire Smiles Summary Numbers of Children Served in Project Year 21 (2017-2018 school year)

Screenings: The dental screening is a visual observation of the teeth and surrounding structures by a licensed dentist or dental hygienist. Parents receive screening results and recommendations. Cheshire Smiles encourages all children (those with and those without routine dental care) to participate in the dental screening. School nurse Cheryl Bachinski was of great assistance in getting forms returned, scheduling classroom education lessons, and the scheduling, and securing of space for our visit. This year, in accord with data collected by the NH Bureau of Oral Health, screenings were offered to 2nd and 3rd grade students only. Cheshire Smiles had the assistance of parent volunteer Melissa Mahoney on our screening day, which also included fluoride treatments for grades K-5.

Eighty-six students in grades 2 and 3 were offered screenings • 21 (24%) were screened • 20 (23%) declined • 45 (52%) did not respond • 48% response rate

Fluoride: A twice-yearly fluoride varnish program was offered to all students in grades K-5 and applied by Cheshire Smiles hygienists. The first application was done in combination with the November screenings; the second one will be scheduled in the spring. Seventy children were signed up for the fluoride program (although 2 refused-we will try again in the spring).

Prevention: Preventive dental care was provided to all students in grades PS-5 who returned a permission form indicating that they were not receiving routine dental care, and was provided by licensed Cheshire Smiles dental hygienists using portable dental equipment set up at the school. This preventive dental care may include a professional dental cleaning, one-on-one oral hygiene instruction, sealants, temporary fillings, and fluoride treatments. We utilized two dental chairs and an assistant to minimize the number of days needed to provide care at the school. •26 students received preventive care (25 cleanings, 1, due to fear, received oral hygiene instruction) •2 parent donations were received for the 26 children treated Restorative Needs: Some of the children who received in-school preventive care need further care by a dentist (i.e. fillings, extractions). •12 of the 26 children (46%) who received preventive care were referred for further restorative care by a dentist

Follow-up/Referrals: Cheshire Smiles follows up with parents after the preventive visit to discuss results and offer referrals to area dentists. If we are unable to reach the parent and we have concerns, a letter is sent.

Sealant Needs: Preventive dental sealants are placed on the biting surfaces of back teeth to protect these hard-to-clean surfaces from decay. With parental permission, Cheshire Smiles hygienists provided this service as part of the preventive visit. Fifteen of the 26 children received sealants on 100 teeth (40 permanent, 60 primary).

42

Other preventive services: With parental permission, Cheshire Smiles hygienists placed a decay- slowing fluoride (SDF or Silver Diamine Fluoride) on suspected decay, or in some cases, temporary fillings, in an effort to slow or stop the decay process. It is still recommended that parents take their child to the dentist for an exam.

Education: Cheshire Smiles offers to provide a dental health lesson to each class in the targeted grades. These age appropriate lessons were conducted for all the PS-3 classes. “Take-home sheets,” containing dental health activities for each child and information for parents, were provided.

Preventive Services Provided at Hinsdale Elementary School 2017-18 Based on average costs in private NH dental offices

Twenty-five cleanings (prophylaxes): $1,887.50 One oral hygiene visit: $ 41.00 Twenty-five fluoride treatments: $1,175.00 One hundred sealants: $5,450.00 One hundred thirty-seven fluoride treatments as part of the twice yearly fluoride program, including anticipated spring fluoride treatments: $6,439.00 Twenty-four teeth treated with SDF: $1,037.04 Seven temporary fillings: $926.31 (A small percentage of these fees were reimbursed by NH Medicaid and by parent contributions).

Total value of services: $16,955.85

Hinsdale School District Director of Technology 2017-2018

The new school year began with the hiring of a technical support specialist to provide us with much needed help in our department. We have been struggling for a number of years to keep up with the technology needs in the district. We are now able to address help desk requests in a reasonable period of 24-48 hours instead of from days to weeks in previous years.

We began our process of implementing the five-year future tech plan during this school year. At the end of last school year, we took some time to evaluate what device we were going to lease for the 1:1 initiative portion of the plan by ordering a couple of laptop models that looked like they would work for us. Main considerations were price, the ability to use imaging software, operating system (Windows 10) and usefulness to the student. We narrowed the selection down to two, both were Lenovo products. We chose the Lenovo N24, which is a Chromebook like product as far as size and price. At the time, it was the latest model and we felt it might be available again in the summer of 2018 for year two of the 1:1 rollout. It is a model that is available only to education clients due to the lower pricing. We purchased two new mobile locking carts for storing the laptops at HES. We are reusing some carts we had on hand from the two buildings for the HHS laptops.

We upgraded the software on the Aruba wireless controller device, which we purchased in 2007. This was necessary since wireless technology has changed in the last ten years. In addition, we purchased and installed nine WAPs (Wireless Access Points) and installed them in key classroom locations in HHS and HES to support our 1:1 initiative.

We have been able to do some much needed upgrade work on network equipment. Many upgrades as far as software and firmware to equipment was put on hold for a considerable amount of time because we were short staffed, now we are catching up to make our network and equipment more secure. We purchased a new core switch, which was part of our future tech plan, for HMHS and we then repurposed the old core switch from HMHS to HES to become the core switch at that building. We previously had multiple smaller switches in place at HES, which affected internet speed.

We have been trying to use a manager service on our server we have available called SCCM (System Center Configuration Manager pronounced skim). It is an additional example where another set of hands has allowed us to move forward. It is a way one remotely controlled process for many aspects of our hardware including software upgrades and patch deployment. The system needed some considerable setup and again another item we wanted to implement but always on the back burner. Our goal is to provide for more efficiency with tasks that need completion on multiple computers such as plugin upgrades, Windows updates, browser upgrades etc.

We rolled out the laptops to students in grades 5 and 9 at the end of September. Teachers in this group have been meeting every 3-6 weeks to plan the rollout and then to review how the rollout is proceeding. At grade, 9 there have been several meetings where teachers

44

facilitate the meetings to discuss with the students what is going well and what needs improvement. One of the meetings we asked for written feedback from the students and here is a sample of the comments:

 Useful to look up important information  Useful to do reports in the classroom  Useful when the lab isn’t available  Good to have computer access especially when home access is limited  Useful functions: calculator, dictionary, Google  Allows for interactive activities  Allows for work to be done faster  Music (w/permission) when working helps  Easier to take notes in class by typing  Allows for class communication, it’s easier to keep in touch with teachers  Less physical paperwork to lose, less homework to take home  Allows for PowerSchool monitoring by students (regularly)  Office 365 allows for things to be kept in one place

Grade 5 students will be using their laptops to complete winter MAP testing. This is our first opportunity to move the testing from desktops to laptops, which allows more flexibility when scheduling.

A new version of the teacher gradebook, PowerTeacher Pro, was implemented this year after a small pilot group used it last spring. The application no longer relies on Java but on HTML5, which is a big improvement for the end user. Grades 4 and 5 moved to a new version of the standards based report card after a pilot year in grade 4 last year.

Mr. Therieau, who is not only our network administrator but also our website developer, has spent time updating the websites to comply with federal laws concerning accessibility, particularly as it relates to visually impaired users.

Thank you to the citizens of Hinsdale for their continued support

Hinsdale School District Director of Curriculum and Instruction Report 2017-2018

The goals of the Hinsdale School District are designed to support the improvement of student learning so that each student can maximize his or her potential. The goals guide our work, provide the basis for professional development, and inform decisions about curriculum, instruction, and assessment.

HSD maintains and implements curricula in ten content areas. It is absolutely critical that teachers are provided the support, training, instructional resources and positive educational climate to successfully implement district programs in all content areas. This is why we have a systematic process in place to evaluate, develop, and implement all curricula in a manner that allocates district resources wisely and effectively. The Hinsdale School District Curriculum Renewal Cycle is a systematic process. At the beginning of this current 2016-17 school year, a new Curriculum Renewal Cycle was established; it is a 5 year cycle including: Year 1: Review and Research - A committee representing all levels of education in HSD is formed. It meets after school to assess existing curriculum, research outstanding practices, and national/state trends in the content area. It reviews the literature and may make visitations. This group decides on the extent of the revision needed. They may begin to write a Mission/Vision statement if one is needed. Year 2: Writing – The committee then writes the components of the curriculum. Writing will occur during the summer and continue into the next school year, as materials are matched to the curriculum. During the school year, sections of the curriculum will be piloted in grade levels. Year 3: Implementation - Full implementation at all grade levels will be expected in September of the indicated school year. Years 4 and 5: M – Monitor – The curriculum will continue to be monitored for its effectiveness. “Mid-course” adjustments will be recommended by staff and discussed by administration prior to any changes. The curriculum areas that are in Year 1 of the cycle for 2017-2018 include World Language and Fine and Performing Arts. The curriculum areas that are in Year 2 of the cycle for 2017-2018 include Science and Health/Physical Education.

Hinsdale teachers, para-educators, support staff, and administrators benefit from a wide range of professional development opportunities both on and of site.

The 2017-2018 year is the fourth year of implementation of The Key Comprehension Routine, a combination of comprehension, writing, and study strategies that help students understand and learn content information. The routine helps teachers provide effective instruction using existing subject-area materials. Six building-based coaches and trainers from the company continue to provide ongoing support to faculty/staff. Currently, our Keys to Literacy coaches are working with school faculty on the calibration of student writing – working to come to consensus regarding what proficiency “looks like.”

46

Critical to the success of our students is the use of a variety of valid and reliable assessments and measurements of student progress. Teams of teachers work collaboratively as they “dig into the data” to make informed decisions about next instructional steps. In addition to classroom assessments based on daily instruction, other measures of assessment that we use include AIMSweb and NWEA-MAP (Northwest Evaluation Association Measures of Academic Progress) through grade 8; and our ninth and tenth grade students take the PSAT; and our grade 11 students take the SAT. These tools help teachers determine a student’s current level of performance and to make instructional decisions based on the data. These assessments are aligned with the College and Career Readiness Standards, and provide us with additional data for examining student achievement and instruction in the rigors of the College and Career Readiness Standards. Currently, we are in the process of completing an application to become a NH PACE school district (Performance Assessment for Competency Education). NH PACE is a first-in-the- nation accountability strategy that offers a reduced level of standardized testing together with locally developed common performance assessments. These assessments are designed to support deeper learning through competency education, and to be more integrated into students’ day-to- day work than current standardized tests.

The Hinsdale School District is proud of its collaborative professional learning community culture where teachers work and learn together as they create a positive learning environment for our students; we always keep at the forefront the goal of improving each student’s learning so that each student becomes proficient and demonstrates competency of the College and Career Readiness Standards.

Hinsdale School District Hinsdale After School Program (H.A.S.P.) 2017-2018 Hinsdale After School Program (HASP) - A 21st Century Community Learning Center

HASP completed its 9th year of 21st Century Community Learning Center Grant funding this year. Program opportunities continued for all students in both the Elementary and Middle Schools.

HASP underwent a thorough site evaluation by 21CCLC State Program Director, Ashlee Fye in late May. Ms. Fye visited both the Middle and Elementary School Programs and evaluated the programs in the areas of Program Operations, Site Operations, and Site Activities. I am happy to report that HASP received a successful and very positive response to the evaluation from Ms. Fye.

HASP has worked hard to maintain a program that provides students in the Hinsdale School District with a safe, nurturing, and academically enriching environment. Many efforts have also been put in place to improve the quality of our programs at both the Elementary and Middle Schools. With this in mind, we have accomplished the following:

Help Families HASP continues to offer programming before school from 7:00 am to 8:30 am at the elementary school, as well as after school programming at the elementary school from 3:10 pm to 6:00 pm and at the middle school from 2:35 pm to 5:30 pm. Morning programming, similar to that at the elementary school continues at the Middle School with very positive results and high attendance. Clubs/programs offer extended learning opportunities including, but not limited to, homework assistance during the days that school is in session. An added benefit of the program is that participants have the opportunity to receive a healthy, nutritious breakfast and afterschool snack daily. HASP was also able to provide programming on “early release days” for the students in the Middle School. Students who normally attend the program, as well as students who had not previously participated were given the opportunity to attend the program from 12:30 pm to 6:00 pm on these days.

HASP continued its partnership with the Hinsdale Recreation Department to provide before & after camp programming as well as day camp support and activities over the course of the summer. HASP has worked with outside support from other programs to bring a variety of activities to the children who attend the summer camp. HASP Staff continues to receive staff trainings that help to assist in implementing safe, engaging, and academically rich programming. Girls on the Run, a nationwide running program for girls, continued at the elementary school through HASP’s partnership with the Recreation Department, while Heart and Sole, the Middle School version of Girls on the Run also continued at the middle school.

HASP is dedicated, through its scholarship process, to make programming affordable and available for all families who wish to attend the program. For more information on this process, please contact Maryanne O’Malley, HASP Director, at the elementary school (603-336-5332 x 7630).

Inspire Learning

In 2016-2017, HASP offered approximately 150 different clubs & activities serving over 300 children and youth through programming such as: homework support, service learning projects, art programs,

48

drama, music enrichment, Farm to Home, NASA, Kids @fterschool, PBSKids, Bedtime Math, STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Math) activities, CATCH games, recreational sports, literacy- based programs, seasonal crafts and summer enrichment programming. Programs are designed to meet the highest level of excellence in an effort to strengthen the connection between enriching experiences & school day learning. HASP continues to use a process where program management works with administration in both schools to identify challenge areas in Math, Reading/Language Arts & Social Skills to insure that clubs & activities address these challenge areas on some level. These expectations are passed on down to the Club leaders to meets these needs through programs that they deliver. All programs are assessed through direct assessment, activity observations, reflective practice, quarterly student satisfaction surveys, & quarterly staff surveys as a means to meet these objectives.

This year we employed staff and volunteers at each site which included school day staff and faculty, community members, Hinsdale High School students, students from area colleges including Keene State, Greenfield Community, SNHU, NHTI and Castleton State College and other members of the community who enthusiastically shared their interests, talents and hobbies with the children and youth of our community. We were able to offer numerous activities, which were coordinated with district goals & curriculum allowing students to increase their academic, social, and vocational skills because of our staff, our volunteers, and our numerous partnerships.

HASP collaborated with Hinsdale Middle High School’s ELO (Extended Learning Opportunity) Program. On a daily basis, a HMHS senior worked in the program and provided quality, academic- based activities for both our K-2 groups and 3-5 groups. HASP was a recipient of an ELO Mentorship Award for its work with the school’s community and work with the ELO Program.

Students continued to participate in service learning projects. Again, HASP students collected over 100 pounds of items, in a project named “Paws for the Cause”, which were donated to the Monadnock Humane Society in exchange for the opportunity to wear pajamas during their annual “HASP Holiday Pajama Party”.

Safety

Safety is our highest priority and we are proud of our strong sign-out & parent/guardian communication practices In regards to programming and daily communication, students and parents continue to be surveyed regularly on participants’ safety, needs and interests while the site coordinators and director maintain regular communication with the building level administration, faculty and staff to insure the highest level of communication & coordination. The director has worked with district staff & administration to establish a monitoring system that assures each site’s policies are aligned with district policies & procedures. Safety drills are practiced, under the direction and support of District Administration, to ensure that all staff and students know how to react in the event of an emergency. Most of the staff is currently CPR/First Aid trained.

Partners & Friends

Many thanks to the Hinsdale School District, Hinsdale Recreation Department, PTA, PTSA, UNH Co- Operative Extension, Keene State College, Girls on the Run, Bridget Cummings/Holstein, BedTime Math and the numerous other partners who have provided quality enrichment activities for our children and families. A special thank you to our volunteers, whose selfless gift of time and caring has helped to enrich our program in many ways. 49

In our pursuit to strengthen the program, HASP has remained an active member of Hinsdale Recreation Department, Hinsdale PTA, and Community Connections for Afterschool Networking (CCAN), New Hampshire After School Network, and the National Afterschool Network.

We are deeply appreciative and thankful for the support and leadership provided by Mr. Wayne Woolridge, members of the HASP Advisory Committee and the Hinsdale School District administration. We look forward to the coming year and the opportunities to serve the children and their families in this community. If you wish to visit one of our afterschool sites at either the elementary school or middle school, please feel free to call Maryanne O’Malley at 603-336-5332 x 7630 to arrange a visit.
