WALTER SCOTT’S

On a winning team for five seasons on Friday Night Lights before launching his film career with Battleship, John Carter and Lone Survivor, Kitsch, 34, is back on TV in HBO’s True Detective, airing Sunday nights. He plays broody California Highway Patrol Officer Paul Woodrugh.How would you describe your True Detectivecharacter? “This is a guy who what you see is not what you’re going to get. I think everybody has that façade, and this guy’s quite extreme on that level.”

Friday Night Lights really launched your career. How do you look back on that show now? “I’ve never lost the sense of how grateful I am for that opportunity. There’s no better acting class than what we had every day on that set.”

Is there anything in your career you wish you could do over? “People still want to talk about John Carter [as a fl op], but I have no regrets. I learned so much from that process. I’m going to have a lot of ups and downs in my career. I think you should, if you’re taking risks, and I’m not one to play it safe.”

You’re Canadian, but you built a home in Austin. Was that the result of filming Friday Night Lights in Texas? “I didn’t even know where Austin was when I got the show, and then I fell in love with the people and the city.”

Q: What’s David Hyde Pierce up to? He’s so funny. I still watch reruns of Frasier.

—Hali S., Hagerstown, Md.

A: Pierce is busy these days behind the scenes. He re-cently made his Broadway directorial debut with the musical It Shoulda Been You at the Brooks Atkinson Theatre, and he has plans to direct more. Still, he is open to the idea of return-ing to television, possibly in his role as Frank Prady, a political commentator-turned-candidate, on The Good Wife, airing Sunday nights on CBS. Pierce, 56, says, “Whether or not I reappear will be all about schedules and storylines.”

Q: Is the new Mr. Robinson series based on events from star Craig Robinson’s real life?

—Roger B., Colorado Springs, Colo.

A: The stories told in Mr. Robinson (premiering Aug. 5 on NBC), about a struggling musician who moonlights as a substi-tute teacher, are from the writers, not from the life of the former star of The Offi ce. But there are some real connections, says Robinson, 43. For one, he’s a musician who

plays the keyboard in his own group. “And I actually have my band, Nasty Deli-cious, in the show.”

Is Hilary Du� going to tour now that she has a new album? I haven’t seen her

perform live since her Lizzie McGuire days.

—Beth H., Laredo, Texas

A: Her plan is to tour “intimate venues” early next year for Breathe In. Breathe

Out., her fi rst CD in seven years. The delay is the re-

sult of fi lming season two of her TV Land series Younger,

on which Duff, 27, plays book editor Kelsey Peters. “Being on the show, I had to take a step back from

music,” she says. “[My mu-sic career] is going to be on a smaller scale than before. But I want to have the best

of both worlds.”

Ask MarilynBy Marilyn vos Savant

Send questions to marilyn @ parade.com

A one-level house has no air conditioning. At night, two windows on opposite corners of the house are opened. One window has a fan. With no wind, is it better to face the fan outdoors so it blows the warmer air out? Or should it face indoors so it blows the cooler air in?

—Ben Lindsay, Rigby, Idaho

Face the fan outdoors, open a couple of windows in rooms that are far from the fan, and close all windows near the fan. This should make the fan suck in cool outside air through those open windows on the far corner of the house and blow warm household air outside. Also, this will have even more effect when the open windows are on the windy side of the house.

Your eyes have an outer protective lipid layer that keeps in moisture.

Only Soothe XP contains RestorylTM mineral oils that help restore

this layer, seal in moisture, and protect against further irritation.

Ordinary drops can’t do that.

Your eye’s protective

layer is thinner than a

human hair, and it’s what

stands between your

eyes and the world.

Dry eye happens when this layer breaks down. Soothe XP can help.

CREATE A CULTURE OF CARINGAt Premier Charter School, every one of the 900-plus children in grades K-8 is assigned to one of 46 school “families” that includes teachers, custodians, secretaries and administrators. � e families meet regularly, sometimes eat lunch together and do team-building activities. Students stay with the family as long as they’re at the school. “It gives students the opportunity to build relationships with students in other grades and with adults,” Frugo says. “We have a true sense of community, of family. I hear from parents and kids that there’s something palpable here when you walk into our building.”

� e school’s core values of respect, responsibility and caring are “tied to everything we do,” Frugo says. � ese values were the result of months of conversation among teachers, stu-dents, parents, board members and members of the community, all of them “coming to a consensus on what we felt were the values we wanted to build every-thing else around.”

School culture there also includes daily class meetings, student-led leader-ship groups that plan school events and even on-site daycare for employees’ children. “We intentionally put the daycare in our middle school

building so we have the teeny-tinies there. I can’t tell you how much softer it makes the middle school kids to have that attachment,” says Frugo.

SHOW WHAT CHARACTER MEANSCourage, commitment, integrity, citizenship, sacrifi ce andpatriotism are worthy concepts, but most students are hard-pressed to explain what they mean. To help his high school students make the connection, history teacher Mark Petersen showed videos in which Medal of Honor recipients discussed their experiences. � ey watched Paul Bucha, a U.S. Army captain in Vietnam, talk about the “burden and privilege” of leading soldiers who knew they were being asked to risk their lives. � ey heard John Hawk, an Army sergeant who fought at Normandy, say “Courage is not a lack of fear, which would be a lack of intelligence. But it’s how you handle your fear.”

How we’re teachingkids to do the right

thing in 2015. By Kathleen McCleary

Cover and opening photography by Robb Scharetg

OPERATIONGOOD

CITIZEN

I f you see a Sierra Vista Middle School student in Covina, Calif., laden with clothes and toiletries, he is probably on his way to to visit the homeless. � is year, history teacher Sheila Edwards’s students also collected money, sheets, blankets and towels for homeless vets. In class, students discussed values, and Edwards tried to

help them match the values to their own behavior. “Kids need to know the words,” she says. “When you’re giving to others, that’s sacrifi ce. Labeling it makes it powerful. Kids can say, ‘I did this; it shows I’m committed,’ or ‘� is shows I have integrity.’ ”

Respect, responsibility, caring for others, integrity, sacrifi ce. In a world where even basic civility and manners can seem to be things of the past, teaching kids to do the right thing seems chal-lenging. But schools like Sierra Vista Middle, along with parents, and even military heroes, are joining forces to do just that.

“Of course people think character education should be taught at home,” says Julie Frugo, head of Premier Charter School in

St. Louis. “Our philosophy is absolutely it should be taught at home, but we’re with kids all day so if we don’t partner with families to help teach that, there’s a big void there.”

Helping to fi ll the void is the Congressional Medal of Honor Foundation’s character development program, which uses “living histories” told by veterans and related lesson plans to help stu-dents understand the values embedded in the Medal of Honor, and Character.org, a national nonprofi t that works with schools to promote 11 principles of eff ective character education—from creating a caring school community and providing students with opportunities for moral action to engaging families and com-munity members in the character-building eff ort. Since 1998, the organization has recognized 312 “Schools of Character” that teach character in ways that improve academics, student behavior and school climate.

Here’s a sampling of character development eff orts in schools across the country.

CREATE A CULTURE OF CARINGAt Premier Charter School, every one of the 900-plus children in grades K-8 is assigned to one of 46 school “families” that includes teachers, custodians, secretaries and administrators. � e families meet regularly, sometimes eat lunch together and do team-building activities.

I can’t tell you how much softer it makes the middle school kids to have that attachment,” says Frugo.

SHOW WHAT CHARACTER MEANSCourage, commitment, integrity, citizenship, sacrifi ce andpatriotism are worthy concepts, but most students are hard-pressed to explain what they mean. To help his high school students make the connection, history teacher Mark Petersen showed videos in which Medal of Honor recipients discussed their experiences. � ey watched Paul Bucha, a U.S. Army captain in Vietnam, talk about the “burden and privilege” of leading soldiers who knew they were being asked to risk their lives. � ey heard John Hawk, an Army sergeant who fought at Normandy, say “Courage is not a lack of fear, which would be a lack of intelligence. But it’s how you handle your fear.”

Students had a whole diff erent view after watching the Medal of Honor videos, says Petersen, who teaches at J. I. Case High in Racine, Wis.

“� ere’s real soul searching out there. One girl in my class admitted she was afraid to stand up and say the Pledge of Allegiance in homeroom because nobody else did it. But she said, ‘After what we’ve been learning in class, I thought, forget those other people.’ And she stood up in homeroom and recited the Pledge of Allegiance. Kids want somebody to tell them it’s OK to do the right thing and take pride in it.”

Juliet Gettings asked students in her special education class at Lawrence County Career and Technical Center in New

Castle, Pa., to discuss the Medal of Honor values they saw in the videos and come up with their own defi nitions. Students wrote letters to the men and women who died in Shanks-ville, Pa., on 9/11, made children’s books incorporating the values and created collages about Medalrecipients. “� ey owned it. It wasn’t just a piece of paper they had to fi ll out. � ey became part of the lesson,” Gettings says.

HELP KIDS SERVE OTHERSWorking in a soup kitchen or col-

lecting donations for the homeless can be empowering. So can help-

ing students “take care of their own,” says David Cittadino, superintendent

of schools in Old Bridge Township, N.J. When a member of the high school lacrosse team

was diagnosed with stage IV Hodgkin lymphoma, the lacrosse team put together a charity game that raised more than $50,000 toward his care. “It was a full stadium,” Cittadino says. “� e game didn’t mean anything, but the event meant some-thing.” A student at the school also developed a “Do the Right � ing” app, which recognizes and applauds good behavior.

GIVE KIDS A CHANCE TO LEAD“Character education can’t be something that gets done downthe hallway with a guidance counselor,” says Meg Wilson, retiring principal at Hoisington High in Hoisington, Kan. “We need to teach students how to lead and give them the opportu-nity to be good leaders.”

Student leadership groups at Hoisington set priorities for the school community. � is year, the group decided to try to bridge the disconnect between incoming freshman and upper-classmen. � e student leadership group met with freshmen

to watch videos about Medal of Honor recipients, then met in smaller groups to discuss respect, honesty, positive attitude, grit and responsibility.

“� e videos showed us that those core values can be used in a lot of diff erent situations to make sure you’re continuing to lead yourself straight,” says junior Corbin Crawford, 16, president of student leadership. Even freshmen became more outspoken and comfortable after repeated discussions. “� ey all realized we’re all here to give our own opinions,” Crawford says.

At Premier Charter School, the “Tight 20” and “Teen 10” are teams of students who meet regularly to come up with ideas for improving the climate of the school. “� ey decide what they want to do,” says Frugo. For the annual Challenge Day, kids plan activities and run them with their peers. “One year there were issues with trust among some of the middle school girls and some unkind behavior,” Frugo says, “and the kids planned activi-ties around that.”

REAP THE BENEFITSDo character ed programs work? In St. Louis, attendance is up while physical altercations are down at Premier Charter School. “I haven’t expelled anybody in eight years,” says Frugo. “Academically, we continue to grow every year. We had kids performing behind grade level who are now exceeding it.”

In Old Bridge Township, N.J., the school district has seen a 47 percent drop in violence, vandalism, weapons and substance abuse incidents. At the high school, fi ghts are down 84 percent and harassment and bullying reports are down 78 percent. SAT scores are up by an average 88 points.

Also worth celebrating: “We’ve received accolades at sport-ing events from other coaches about how our students treat one another,” says Kathleen Hoeker, assistant superintendent of schools. Good news since students who treat each other with respect may be more likely to go out in the world and do the same. � at’s a character development win, says Marvin W. Berkowitz, professor of character education at the University of Missouri-St. Louis Center for Character and Citizenship, who with his colleagues has reviewed more than 60 studies on char-acter education to fi nd what worked and what didn’t: “We want to help kids be the people who we want peopling the world.”

“Jazz came to life in the one country on the planet where diff erent cultures were encouraged to mix and form hybrids,” says Ted Gioia, author of � e History of Jazz (Oxford University Press). Jazz is a melting pot of musical traditions, including blues, marches, spirituals, popular songs, dance music and military music. You can fi nd jazz in the “call-and-response” work songs slaves created to tell stories, and in the musical traditions of the many immigrants who poured into the U.S. in the 1800s from Europe.

“More than any other kind of music, jazz has an ability to digest other performance styles, so it’s perfectly suited to thrive in the U.S. where so many musical cultures intermixed,” Gioia says. And like America, it’s always changing. “Today you can hear people play jazz on the bagpipe or the Japanese fl ute,” he says. “It’s part of the personality of the music.” When asked to explain jazz, � omas “Fats” Waller famously said, “Lady, if you got to ask, you ain’t got it.” —Kathleen McCleary

Why pay more every month on service fees when

you can feel protected everywhere you go with

the most affordable medical alert service on the

market? The GreatCall® Splash has no installation

costs and no special equipment to buy. And

there are no cancellation fees or contracts to sign.

Just the highest level of service at the lowest price.

At only $1999 a month, 5Star® Service on the

Splash can save you up to 50% in monthly

service fees. That’s a total savings of $200 per

year compared to other medical alert services.

With no landline required, you’re not restricted to

your home. The Splash works anywhere you

choose to go. And with its waterproof design, you

can even take it with you in the shower. In any

emergency, just press the button to speak

immediately with a 5Star Medical Alert Agent,

24/7. The Agent will conf rm your location using

patented GPS technology, evaluate your situation

and get you the help you need.

Cut the cost of your medicalalert service in half.

*Good Housekeeping Research Institute - Aug. 2014. $200 savings calculation was determined by averaging the PERS market leaders’ monthly fees (not all the PERS have the same features). 5Star Service is available with the purchase

of the GreatCall Splash and a one-time setup fee of $35. Valid credit or debit card required for monthly service. The GreatCall Splash is rated IPX7, and can be submerged in up to 3 feet of water for up to 30 minutes. Fall Detection is an optional feature of 5Star Service. We cannot guarantee Fall Detection will always accurately detect a fall. GreatCall is not a health care provider and does not provide health care services. Seek the advice of your physician if you have any questions about medical treatment. 5Star or 9-1-1 calls can only be made when cellular service is available. 5Star Service will be able to track an approximate location when your device is turned on, but we cannot guarantee an exact location. Monthly service fee does not include government taxes or assessment surcharges. Prices and fees are subject to change. GreatCall and 5Star are registered trademarks of GreatCall, Inc.

Savory fri� ata meets

portable mu n in this tasty recipe perfect for busy mornings or an a� er-school snack (or at-work lunch). Adapted from Cheryl Sternman Rule’s new cookbook, Yogurt Culture: A Global Look at How to Make, Bake, Sip and Chill the World’s Creamiest, Healthiest Food (Houghton Mi in Harcourt), these mu ns feature Greek yogurt and labneh, and can be made ahead, frozen and then thawed when you crave them.

Preheat oven to 375°F. Generously grease a standard 12-cup muffi n tin. Heat a skillet over medium heat. Add 2 Tbsp olive oil and 2 large thinly sliced shallots. Cook 3 minutes or until tender, stirring frequently. Add 4 shiitake mushrooms, stemmed and thinly sliced, and 3 stemmed and chopped kale leaves; cook 5 minutes or until tender, stirring occasionally. Distribute vegetables evenly among muffi n cups. Whisk together 10 large eggs, 3 Tbsp low-fat Greek yogurt, salt and pepper (it’s OK if the mixture is a bit lumpy). Divide evenly among muffi n cups. Top each with a ½ tsp dollop of labneh or cream cheese. Bake 12-15 minutes or until eggs are set. Cool in pan and gently remove. Serves 6-12.

SUPPLEMENTS 101“They are called supplements, not replacements, which is important. They’re a

complement to a healthy lifestyle.” —Mark Hyman, M.D.

DENISE AUSTINFitness icon

What she takes Multivitamin, B-12 complex,

omega-3 fatty acids, vitamin C, probiotics Tip “I take probiotics at night so they don’t upset my stom-ach during the day. It is really important for the gut, and ev-erything begins in your gut.”

JOE CROSS Filmmaker (Fat, Sick & Nearly Dead) What he takes Turmeric

Tip “I add fresh turmeric (about a 1-inch piece) when I’m making juice or a smoothie. It’s a great anti-inflammatory. And when I drink it in a juice made of leafy greens, ginger and lemon, I feel any little aches and pains dissipate and I gen-erally have tons of energy.”

ROBIN MILLER Food writer, nutri-tionist and Food Network host

What she takes Calcium, dried Chinese red dates, spirulinaTip “Dried Chinese red dates are also called jujubes—they’re 70 to 80 times higher in vitamin C than grapes and apples—plus they’re crammed with vitamin A, thiamine, riboflavin, protein, calcium, phosphorus, iron and magnesium.”
