  • Northwest Allen County Schools Guidelines for School Delays and Closings Due to Inclement Weather
    Northwest Allen County Schools Guidelines for School Delays and Closings Due to Inclement Weather Beliefs Weather conditions are both variable and potentially extreme in Northeast Indiana; the safety of children will guide decisions regarding delaying or closing. Concrete rules do not exist in making decisions regarding variable and extreme weather; however, these guidelines will serve as a reference for Northwest Allen County Schools (NACS). NACS believes our community expects schools to be open and provide educational services as well as supervision and other services, such as meals, to its students. NACS believes all parents are committed to keeping children safe and these parents will dress their children appropriately for the existing weather conditions when sending their children to school. NACS recognizes that it is first and foremost a parental decision as to whether or not a child should attend school on inclement weather days. NACS respects the parent’s determination regarding her/his child’s attendance at school during inclement weather. If school is open, or delayed, because of inclement weather, the school will respect the parent’s decision to keep their child at home. Parents are expected to contact the school and inform school officials of their determination, and the student will be counted as absent, per Indiana code. Students who are absent due to inclement weather will be given the opportunity to complete their academic work. Communication On a normal school day, a delay and/or closing will be announced no later than 6:30 a.m. Following a delay, if the need to close should arise, it will be announced no later than 8:30 a.m.

  • Introduction Abc Sports and Network Sports Television
    Introduction abc sports and network sports television in september 1994, Sports Illustrated published a list of the forty most infl uential sports fi gures in the forty years since the magazine’s launch. Its top two selections—Muhammad Ali and Michael Jordan—were no great surprise. At the height of their respective careers, Ali and Jordan were argu- ably the most recognizable people on Earth. Sports Illustrated’s third-ranked selection—the American Broadcasting Company’s sports television master- mind Roone Arledge—was comparatively obscure. Arledge never fronted for global ad campaigns, had a shoe line, or divided a nation with his politics. But the magazine might have underestimated the infl uence of this producer and executive. During Arledge’s thirty-eight-year stint at the network, ABC built and codifi ed the media infrastructure that made possible global sport celebri- ties of Ali and Jordan’s unprecedented magnitude. ABC Sports is behind some of network sports television’s most signifi cant practices, personalities, and moments. It created the weekend anthology Wide World of Sports, transformed professional football into a prime-time spectacle with Monday Night Football, and fashioned the Olympics into a mega media event. It helped to turn Ali, the sportscaster Howard Cosell, and the daredevil Evel Knievel into stars and captured now-iconic instances that include Tommie Smith and John Carlos’s raised-fi st protest at the 1968 Olympics, the terrorist attacks at the 1972 Munich Games, Billie Jean King and Bobby Riggs’s 1973 “Battle of the Sexes” tennis match, the US hockey team’s 1980 “Miracle on Ice” victory over the Soviet Union, and the 1999 Women’s World Cup fi nal.
