Twenty –three Deer Lakes Middle School students competedat the regional level of National History Day (NHD) at the HeinzHistory Center on March 4, 2017. National History Day is anonprofit educational organization that promotes teaching andlearning of history in middle and high schools around the world.The NHD contest, established in 1974 encourages students toconduct original research on historical topics of interest. Eachyear, a theme is selected. The 2017 theme was “Taking a Stand.”Students were required to select a person or event in history andthrough their research, link their topic to the theme. Studentscan compete as individuals or groups in various categories.They can choose to create a display, a web-site, a documentary,a historical paper or do a performance. All students must alsocomplete a process paper and an annotated bibliography for thejudges to review.

This year, sixth graders Alex Windows, Alanna Wise andKathryn Strang created a display on Carrie Chapman Catt, awoman who played an instrumental role in women’s suffrage.Sawyer Hadlum and Leif DeForce-Petersen created a displayabout Thomas Edison and Nikola Tesla titled “AC vs. DC: AWar of Currents.” April Neudorfer and Katherine Rakowski cre-ated a display on “Elizabeth Eckford’s Stand for Education withthe Little Rock Nine” concerning the desegregation of Americanschools. Tira Waksmonski created a display titled “Neville

Seventh grader Rick Gao created a website titled “AbrahamLincoln: Taking a Stand with the 13th Amendment” and thegroup of Sadie Greyshock, Greta Olexa, Lizzie Orosz, and FionaRamsey delivered a performance titled “Sellins’ Stand: A NewView on People Over Profit.” Fannie Sellins worked with thecoal miners’ wives in an effort to unionize the workers, and shewas eventually gunned down during a confrontation outside theAllegheny Coal and Coke Company Mine in Brackenridge in1919.

Eighth graders Laci Dezern and Nathan Duffy created a per-formance about Harry Houdini titled “Houdini: Helping theWorld by Manifesting the Truth Behind the Lies ofSpiritualism.” The group consisting of Tristan Hineman, ZenonSteadman, Devin Reiher and Dan Stewart created a websitetitled “Levi Coffin and the Underground Railroad.” Coffinhelped slaves escape to freedom using the UndergroundRailroad.

Little does he knowthat this strange and unusual plant will develop a soulful R&Bvoice, a potty mouth, and an unquenchable thirst for HUMANBLOOD.

As Audrey II grows bigger and meaner, the carnivorous plantpromises limitless fame and fortune to Seymour, as long as he con-tinues providing a fresh supply of blood. Just when it’s too late,Seymour discovers Audrey II’s extra-terrestrial origins and his truedrive for world-domination.

The Deer Lakes team of sophomores AbigailBuechel, Carley Hammers, Julia Hollibaugh, andAnna Solomon; and junior Jacob McCaskey took firstplace in the 18th Annual Bayer InternationalMarketing Competition held March 9 at theUniversity of Pittsburgh.

The project, which began in the fall, requires agreat deal of research by each team and is designed tohelp them learn key skills and how to work in a groupconstruct. In addition to the traditional market fac-tors, students must also gain an appreciation for con-cepts like business etiquette, distribution logistics,advertising standards and norms, pricing, packaging,and a host of other considerations.

The competing teams were then required to give a12-minute marketing presentation demonstratingeverything they’ve learned over the course of themonths-long program.

Marketing CompetitionContinued from page 16

Past competitions have marketed an array of dif-ferent Bayer products to such countries as: China,India, Saudi Arabia, Chile, Russia, Indonesia,Switzerland, Italy, South Africa, Kenya, Poland andBrazil. This year’s marketing campaign focused onCosta Rica to advertise the product AspirinaAdvanced.

Margaret Carlson, a retired teacher in the district,mentored the group along with Spanish teacher JoshDestein. She has led many Deer Lakes student teamsover the years and said the purpose of the partnershipis to teach students the necessary skills for doing busi-ness in the international marketplace.

“The nations we are marketing to change eachyear and so too do the products we are selling,” saidCarlson. “However, the central themes remain thesame. It is all about learning to cut through culturaland language barriers to successfully market a prod-uct there.”

In addition to their regular ¡ork with Carlson andDestein, the Deer Lakes students have also participat-ed in a series of video interviews and teleconferencesfrom experts in the field including practitioners in thatmarketplace and business professors from theInternational School of Business from the Universityof Pittsburgh.

Carlson, who taught French and Spanish at DeerLakes for 29 years and is now an adjunct professor atLa Roche College and on the CulturalCommunications Alliance (CCA) Board, which spon-sors the competition, said that it is very important thatstudents have completed at least one foreign languagecourse.

“We want these students to get the most they canout of this project and to do that we feel they need tohave some background in studying other cultures andlanguages,” she said.

Destein, who always preaches to his students theimportance of thinking as a global citizen in anincreasingly competitive world, said he wasimpressed with all of the presentations. “We’re talkingabout a group of mostly sophomores and one juniordoing graduate school level work,”said Destein, who is in his first year as a sponsor. “Idon’t know how anyone could watch those presenta-tions and not come away extremely impressed?”

The Bayer Corporation Mentorship Program,which began in 1999, is sponsored by the CCA inpartnership with Chorus Call, the University ofPittsburgh’s International Business Center, GlobalStudies and the David Berg Center for Ethics andLeadership. It is underwritten by the BayerCorporation, the U.S. subsidiary of the German com-pany Bayer AG, with core competencies in health-care, agriculture and high-tech polymer materials.

Concordia Names Resident Care Coordinator at NewestRetirement Community

Concordia at Rebecca Residence Exectuvei Director MikeKaufman and Concordia Haven Director fo Retirement Livingrecently announced the appointment of West Deer Township res-ident, Julie Spirnock as resident care coordinator and admissionscounselor for the newest Concordia retirement communityHighpointe at Rebecca.

Highpointe at Rebecca will have a strong guiding force inthe funny and friendly Julie, a Concordia employee who can’twait to begin her work at the new community. “ I love my residents,” Julie said candidly when first intro-duced to a group of VIPs at one of High¬pointe at Rebecca’srecent educational sessions. Currently the resident care coordina-tor for 140 who live at Haven I located on the Concordia at Cabotcampus, Julie can tell plenty of stories to prove it.

Actually, this attachment to seniors began 14 years ago atConcordia at Rebecca Residence when she accepted the job aspart-time evening receptionist while caring for her family duringthe day. “The residents would come to the lobby and talk so Igrew to know them well,” she remem¬bers.

Come August, Julie will move into the new quarters atHighpointe at Rebecca tasked with the assignment to care forthose who have chosen to make their retirement home in thebrand new three story apartment building on the Concordia cam-pus in Allison Park.

She and her husband Mark have lived in West DeerTownship for the last 22 years and became involved with highschool sports. Their son plays football and base¬ball and is head-ed to Westminster to become a teacher. Daughter Jenna is in 7thgrade at Deer Lakes Middle School. Both ambitious and bright,she has her mind set on owning a business.

Born and raised in Tarentum, Julie was a member of the for-mer Lutheran church in Brackenridge which closed late last year.

Julie is the proverbial “daughter on site” who looks after theeveryday needs of her residents and is likely to become theirgreatest advocate. She said it will be a hard, difficult move toleave her “family” at Cabot but she is looking forward to a clos-er commute and a new family to care for.
