Update Parent Letter for ACMS Parents

Letters have been mailed to parents of all Adair County Middle School students about the school's status regarding No Child Left Behind. Unfortunately, one section of that letter did not get needed updates.

The section about the school's successes should have reflected the accomplishments of the 2009-10 ACMS Future Problem Solving Team. Though the team excelled in 2008-09, this year's team set a new standard in excellence by going undefeated against district, regional, and state competition. The team capped off their season by capturing the third place trophy in world competition at the Future Problem Solvers International Competition in Wisconsin. They also were awarded the fourth place trophy for their Action Plan.

Reader asks if he is alcoholic. If cooking with beer counts?

About: Questions: Fishing the Green River

To ColumbiaMagazine.com:

How much beer is one required to take on a fishing trip? I've already had three beers this year and that could be viewed as alcoholism. I also used a beer to cook with and I don't know if that counts.
