In 1930 the original reason the Elkins merchants began planning for a homecoming festival was to bring back those who had moved away from town. One great characteristic of American culture is the shared experience of community in schools. The Elkins High School Homecoming Parade last Wednesday made me think about what is being lost when we dismantle public schools. Music, sports, even higher math may be endangered. Elkins

We are so fortunate in Elkins to have retired faculty members from our local Davis & Elkins College and dedicated reporters for our local daily newspaper.

This week these two topics flowed together when I heard Elizabeth Byers explaining the significance of the Kump Education Center Wetland.

Many species are becoming extinct because

    Last week my column about city water problems ended hurriedly with these two sentences: “As frustrating as these problems may be, they cannot all be blamed on government. Every generation must work together and learn from history to solve problems using kindness (civility) and intelligence.” This week after watching school children get on a yellow bus for their first day of school, I plan to start with the above suggestions for solving our public-school problems.
