Around the Town With Jo Ann Dennis and Melody DennisCastleberry ISD’s Education Foundation Plans InauguralFundraising Gala Mark your calendars for Saturday, April 14 tobe a part of “An Evening for Education” spon-sored by the Castleberry ISD EducationFoundation. The evening will feature food, drink, livemusic performed by Two Far Gone, a silent auc-tion with gift boxes for $25, and a live auctionwith many unique and exciting items that havebeen donated for bidding. The Evening for Education Gala will be heldat the historic Texas Girls' Club headquarters onCamp Bowie Boulevard. Tickets for this very important and excitinggala went on sale yesterday and can be purchasedfrom Foundation Executive Director, RozFaulhaber at 817-456-9884, or [email protected]. The tickets cost $50 per person,or $75 per couple. Check the webpage www.cis-dfoundation.org to find more information aboutmonetary donations, sponsoring tables, or howyou can volunteer your time for the gala. The Castleberry ISD Education Foundationwas established in July of 2017, and is a public,non-profit corporation with 501(c)(3) tax status. The members of Castleberry's Education Fundare a diverse group, but all have the same goal ofimproving education for Castleberry students. Thededicated board is comprised of ExecutiveDirector, Roz Faulhaber, Deanne Page, JohnRamos, Alfredo Morales, Renee Smith-Faulkner,Dr. Zarina Blankenbaker, Erika Starnes, BarbaraWalker, Allen Pennington, Mike Edwards, JeannaRatnayake, Marylou Martinez, Jarett Jackson, andRyan Blake. The Castleberry ISD Education Foundationjoins approximately 189 other districts in the stateof Texas who have also established educationfoundations. As costs to educate students have steadilyrisen, education foundations have stepped in tofund school projects, provide teaching grants, andto award scholarships for college. In short, educa-tion foundations fund educational opportunities
that are not covered by tax dollars. EducationalFoundations help fund students’ and educators’desires to achieve high reaching dreams by allow-ing teachers and students to think outside-the-box,and to delve deep into creative and innovativeteaching and learning environments. Castleberry ISD Superintendent John Ramossaid "The Castleberry ISD Education Foundationis designed to support CISD's pursuit of qualityeducation at a level that we just can't financiallydo on our own." In truth, most districts cannot financially pro-vide everything a student of today needs for suc-cess tomorrow. Since the 2008 recession, federaland state funding in 32 states, including Texas, hasdropped to financial stipends even lower thanwhat was paid to districts in 2008. It is pretty dif-ficult to prepare tomorrows leaders for 2018,2019, 2020 and so forth with 2008's budget. You and I can make a huge difference in thequality of education our Castleberry Lionsreceive, simply by donating to the CISDEducational Foundation. According to the National School FoundationAssociation, researcher McCormick et al (2001)found that $20 per student can have an impact, andan extra $20 can produce a change in education. There is still plenty of time to join the list ofdonors. A short phone call to Executive DirectorRoz Faulhaber will allow her to let you know howeasily you can become a valued community part-ner for education. As of Feb. 9, there were 28 donors with giftcertificates for restaurants and photography ses-sions, admission tickets to sporting events andexperience packages. The Evening for Education Gala should be avery exciting night. So please, purchase a ticket,or make a donation and you will be part of thecommunity commitment to the Castleberry ISDEducation Foundation and the students ofCastleberry ISD. See you next week.

Attorney General Ken Paxton recently intro-duced a new comprehensive training video to edu-cate and mobilize all Texans in the fight againsthuman trafficking. The nearly hour-long videowas developed over the last year by the attorneygeneral’s Human Trafficking/TransnationalOrganized Crime (HTTOC) section and debutedduring a public screening at the Austin ISDPerforming Arts Center. “This remarkable training video represents mydeep conviction to inform, educate and empowerTexans to prevent, recognize and report humantrafficking,” Attorney General Paxton said. “‘Bethe One in the Fight Against Human Trafficking’was created to enlist residents from every walk oflife to help Texas in its nationwide leadership roleto combat and ultimately eliminate this horrificand dehumanizing crime.” Texas is responsible for the nation’s secondhighest number of calls to the National HumanTrafficking Hotline, and recent research indicatesthat at any given time there are more than 300,000victims of human trafficking in the state. At the screening, Attorney General Paxtonannounced that his office is providing the humantrafficking training video to all Texas state agen-cies, with the potential of reaching 315,000 stateemployees. The video is mandatory viewing forthe 4,000 employees of the attorney general’soffice. “I am challenging my fellow state agency
heads to follow suit,” he said. Attorney GeneralPaxton applauded the Texas Department of Familyand Protective Services for being the first stateagency to use the video in the training of all 8,000of its front-line caseworkers. “Be the One in the Fight Against HumanTrafficking” shares the compelling and oftendeeply emotional stories of human traffickingfrom the perspective of survivors, experts, lawenforcement, and good samaritans, including aTexan who helped authorities shut down a majorhuman trafficking operation in his own neighbor-hood of The Woodlands. Launched in January 2016, Attorney GeneralPaxton’s HTTOC section has assisted or consultedon dozens of cases, such as the arrest of the CEOof Backpage.com, whose online “adult” ads werelinked to sex trafficking of women and children. Italso partners with Truckers Against Traffickingand the Texas Trucking Association on an innova-tive public-private-program to put more eyes andears on the road to catch human trafficking. Sinceits inception, HTTOC has provided human traf-ficking awareness training to more than 15,000people across the state of Texas. The training video is available for anyone towatch at www.texasattorneygeneral.gov/human-trafficking.

One sport at Castleberry High School that hasnot received much publicity over the years is pow-erlifting. Many schools across the state participatein this sport despite the fact that it is not an officialUIL sport. Powerlifting is basically a winter sport, begin-ning in January and ending in March with the statemeet. Over the years CHS has had a number of statequalifiers, even a state champion (Alex Scallion –2012). Coach Yolanda Beasley has been coaching theteam for six years at CHS (she is also the head vol-leyball and girls track coach). Both boys and girlscompete in powerlifting, which is divided into cat-egories by their weight. Each participant competes in three lifts: squat,bench and deadlift. However, picking a wiseweight for your first attempt in each event can becritical, because you are not allowed to lower yourweight once you begin. You get three attempts foreach lift. Your total score is the combined maxi-mum weight lifted in squat, bench and deadlift. Ifyou start with too high a weight on a lift and areunsuccessful on all three tries then one third ofyour score will be zero. A powerlifting meet is a little like a track meetin a way (except indoors); meaning there is alwayssomeone competing some place. This Saturday,Feb. 10 the team hosted the Castleberry LionInvitational Power Lifting Meet. The competition took place at the gym(s) ofIrma Marsh Middle School. Teams from Aubrey,DBA Inspired Vision, Diamond-Hill, HarvestChristian Academy (Watauga), Hirschi (WichitaFalls), Kennedale, Lucas Lovejoy, Plano,Springtown, and Western Hills showed up to com-pete with Castleberry. The Lions and Lady Lions both had outstand-ing meets. The Lady Lions finished in secondplace with 35 points (behind Springtown’s 57points). The boys were meet champions with a firstplace score of 41 points. Individual results forCHS are listed below: Girls • 97 Class: Isabelle Castillo, second place with435 • 105 Class: Carolina Dominguez, third placewith 535 • 148 Class: Arlene Sanchez, second placewith 650 • 165 Class: Jeannette Santos first place with755 • 198 Class: Brianna Sims first place with 960 • 220 Class: Yadira Abreu second place with790; Celeste Sanchez,third place with 580 Boys • 123 Class: Dylan Cortez first place with 530

With the invention of airplanes, she found her calling asthe first African-American woman to become a pilot. As a famous stunt pilotin the 1920s, she toured the country, and all eyes looked skyward to see herperform.
Coleman was born outside Atlanta, Texas, in January 1892 in a one-roomcabin. She was the 12th of 13 children in a family of sharecroppers. Herfather was part Cherokee and part African-American with her mother a for-mer slave. At the age of two, the family moved to Waxahachie. As a younggirl, she walked four miles to the one-room school where she developed atalent for math.
She briefly attended college in Oklahoma before dropping out. In 1916,she moved to Chicago with a couple of her brothers and found work as amanicurist.
As World War I progressed, she was mesmerized by the daring tales ofWorld War I fighter pilots that were told by returning veterans. With storiesof women becoming pilots, she began dreaming of her own career as a pilot.Coleman took a second job and started saving her money.
Harriet Quimby of Michigan became the first American woman pilot in1911, and dozens more followed. But there were no opportunities for minor-ity women to even enter flight schools. Friends suggested Coleman take les-sons in France.
She left in 1920, and by June 1921, she gained her pilots license, the firstAfrican-American or Native American woman ever to receive a license. Thenews was met with acclaim in the United States. She spent the next yearworking on further training.
There were few occupations for pilots at the time. Military aviation pro-grams were still very small and would not admit women. The U. S. PostalService had its air mail program in effect before World War I but would nothire women pilots. The major airlines would not be formed for several more
years. Most air travel in the 1920s, in fact, was by Zeppelin airship ratherthan airplanes.
The best option, and the most visible, was the air show. Airplanes werenot yet two decades old, and many were fascinated by the new invention andthe sight of death-defying aerial acrobatics. At air shows, pilots would per-form complicated maneuvers, stuntmen would walk on the wings, and somewould even parachute out of planes.
Coleman toured the country with air shows, billed as “Brave Bessie” or“Queen Bessie.” The plane Coleman used most often was the JN-4 “Jenny”biplane. In 1923, she bough her first plane, but she was seriously injured inan air show when it crashed a few days later. She saved up to buy anotherplane the next year. In the meantime, she continued to tour across the coun-try.
“In the air is the only place free from prejudice,” Coleman often said. Inthe air, pilots can only rely on their training, instincts, and determination,qualities that that do not know skin color or gender. She gave presentationsat African-American churches and schools, urging others to get involved inaviation. She often talked about one day opening a flight school.
In 1926, Coleman was preparing for a performance in Florida. She wasunable to get a plane for the next air show, where she planned a spectacularparachute jump from the plane, and had her publicist and mechanic, WilliamWills, deliver her plane from Dallas.
Wills had to land several times for repairs before arriving. On April 30,she and Wills took off on a test flight. Unknown to either one, a wrench hadbeen left inside the engine assembly.
During the flight, the wrench came loose, damaging the internal controls.The plane suddenly went into an uncontrolled spin, plummeting to theground. Coleman was thrown out of the plane, falling to her death. Willsdied when the plane crashed moments later.
The 34-year-old aviation pioneer was buried in Chicago. The city andaviators alike came to honor her memory in the years afterward. Chicagonamed a library and a park for her.
Several other cities named streets for her near their airports. TheAerospace Education Foundation in New York offers the Bess ColemanScholarship for students interested in aviation careers. In 1995, the U. S. Postal Service issued a stamp in her honor. The CedarHill Independent School District opened Bessie Coleman Middle School in2006.
Perhaps the most fitting tribute came decades after her death. In 1992,Dr. Mae Jemison, the first African-American woman in space, carried asmall picture of Coleman with her on her mission aboard the space shuttleEndeavour.
A great moment in exploration became possible by one person openingthe door for others to follow. All eyes had turned to the skies once again forBessie Coleman.
