- Patrick Germond: Accountability needed
- February 1, 2013
- Denver’s Channel Nine News recently did a story about the schools in Colorado in which they compiled information about the school districts across the state, including Moffat County, giving each school a letter grade. Moffat County High School received a “D+”, and Sunset Elementary an “F” in the area of academic growth (coloradoschoolgrades.com, click the report card link for each school). This story coming on the heels of Moffat County School District scoring in the bottom one percent statewide last year. This level of epic failure from an organization is caused by systemic management collapse and inferior leadership. Speaking with Sandy Johns the Moffat County School Board President recently, she stated that, “this is just a phase our schools are going through”.

- Over A Cup: Brandi’s Spicy Pork Roast
- February 1, 2013
- This week’s recipe comes courtesy of our daughter-in-law, Brandi, who lives in Bailey. It’s her original recipe, and Brandi reports that when she made it this past week, her family ate it all. Their only request was for her to make two shoulder roasts next time. (The shoulder roast she used came from our granddaughter Megan’s 4-H market swine.) Brandi says that the roast was not spicy hot but it had a wonderful flavor.
