Thanks for your patience with us right now. We are working to redesign/reorganize the site. We should be up with the new site and new, fresh weekly content by the start of school in mid-August. There will be much more info then on why we are making changes and what those changes are. The committee and I are very confident the changes will make the site much more user-friendly for everyone.

We look forward to our relaunch. In the meantime, feel free to check out the current site and the plethora of content we have posted the past year and a half. As always, if you have questions, don't hesitate contacting us.

Summer is an interesting time. It gives me a chance to catch up on things. Earlier this week I was flying home and finally had time to look at the NAA  study “Teens Know What They Want From Online News: Do you?” I found the PDF in a folder I’d labeled “*******to read” that was in a “more desktop stuff” folder which was in another folder called “Desktop.” Needless to say, it was a bit buried.

However, the 15 minutes it took me to read was well worth the time.
