Initial research suggests that pregnant women who eat lots of fish – especially tuna, swordfish and other fish with high mercury levels are more likely to have children with ADHD.  Researchers from the Boston University School of Public Health tracked 788 Massachusetts children between 1993 and 1998.  Then they had the children’s mothers keep food diaries while they were pregnant so they could see how much fish the women ate. They took hair samples from them after they gave birth so they could test their mercury levels. 

Eight years later, they asked the children’s teachers if the kids exhibited ADHD-like symptoms, such as hyperactivity, impulsiveness and inattentiveness.  The researchers concluded that the women who had the most mercury in their hair were 60% more likely to have a child who exhibited ADHD-like behavior.

The Massachusetts Interscholastic Athletic Association recently made a decision to eliminate boys’ gymnastics from sanctioned competition.  This ruling affects several cities and towns including Y3K Tutor In Your Home’s City of Newton.  Both Newton North High School and Newton South High School currently have boys’ gymnastics teams and are allowed to finish up the current season.  Beginning next fall they will be unable to officially compete under MIAA rules.  Next school year the schools will be able offer boys’ gymnastics as a club sport, however meets will not be sanctioned by the MIAA and there would be no state tournament or championship.  Girls’ gymnastics will continue as usual to be MIAA sanctioned. 

Another public relations consultant model that some school systems are using are similar to the Concord-Carlisle Regional School District method.  As opposed to hiring an independent consultant at inflated hourly charges, they pay an in-house consultant an inflated yearly salary.  This is instead of the time-honored tradition of the Superintendent of Schools telling the truth directly to parents.  In Concord-Carlisle Regional School District’s case, they pay a PART-TIME communications manager $40,000 per year.  Other local hires include Newton Public Schools that hire a Communications and Community Engagement Coordinator for $60,000, Marlborough Public Schools that employs a Communications Liaison for $65,000 and Brockton Public Schools with their Communications Officer making $70,000.
