RED BLUFF KIWANIS STUDENT CHOSEN Since the installation of Gerber Elementary School's track students have been running in the mornings in an attempt to tap into the connection between exercise, feeling great mentally and physi- cally and being able to fo- cus and concentrate. Students were working their way up to a mile run, which is five laps of the track. They started with two laps and are slowly in- creasing the amount. First grade teacher Todd Bateman wanted to track all their laps so they could see how they added up to some crazy number of miles throughout the year. That's how he came across StrideTrack, which generates barcode cards for each runner and Bate- man scans them as they run each day. They then go back to class to input laps and see how individual and class totals change. Students began track- ing at the end of August, during which the class ran 98 miles. In September students ran 290 miles as a class. The goal is to increase laps each month towards the mile run and beat the total from each previous month. "It has been amazing to see the increase in moti- vation on the track as stu- dents are striving to run extra laps to increase their and our class mileage," Bateman said. "The kids that were 'out for a Sun- day stroll' are now cruis- ing around the track see- ing how many laps that can run each day. In the short span of a month and a half the class had run 422 miles and there are students ranging from mid-teens to mid-twenties for indi- vidual mileage. The hope is that walk- ing and running becomes a natural part of the stu- dents' lifestyle as they get older, to help them to un- derstand the tie between academics and being healthy. GERBER SCHOOL First-graders log miles on their new track The Community College Journal, a publication of the American Association of Community Colleges, has featured the Shasta Col- lege Youth Entrepreneur- ship Program in the arti- cle "Creating an Entrepre- neurial Mindset," written by Douglas Guth. It can be read at www.ccjournal-dig- ital.com. In its 10th year, YEP hosts students ages 14 to 18 from 25 area high schools to showcase their entre- preneurial concepts for a chance to win $3,000 in start-up funding. "Shasta College's YEP has had a tremendous im- pact on the entrepreneur- ial mindset of the students in our community, and has been introduced statewide as a program model," said Superintendent and Pres- ident Dr. Joe Wyse. "The younger generation doesn't want to work for other peo- ple. If we can help them re- fine their skills and gain a competitive advantage, that's a great goal for us and for our community." The next YEP Business Plan Competition will be held on March 16, 2017 at the Cascade Theatre in Redding. The competition is comprised of phases, with judges advancing fi- nalists to the final compe- tition in March. Registra- tion for Phase One opens January 2017.
