As the largest public K-8 school in Brookline with approximately 850 students of varied economic backgrounds, their needs are great. Thanks to donors like us and bidders like you, the proceeds will go directly toward the continued roll out of SMART Board and iPad Technology for the classrooms and continued enrichment support for music, academic and sports programs.

The money raised will go to promote their national ad campaign, Models Against Pet Shops and Puppy Mills. The ads are currently running on all of the MBTA commuter trains and at 20 Boston area train stations. This campaign educates consumers about the pet shop/puppy mill connection and encourages them to adopt, not shop.
CAPS is the only national nonprofit organization dedicated exclusively to protecting companion animals from cruelty in pet shops and puppy mills. They are working towards a world free from inhumane breeding and sales practices. CAPS can not do what they do without generous support so make sure you attend the MBTA Launch Party and bid generously on the Y3K Tutor In Your Home certificate.

ADHD Insomnia & Melatonin

By

If your child has sleep issues due to ADHD and the other sleep suggestions from yesterday do not work, there is another option. Students may benefit from the hormone supplement melatonin to induce drowsiness. Melatonin is produced naturally in the brain as the sun goes down, signaling that bedtime is coming within a few hours.

The theory is that taking this supplement may help people with true insomnia fall asleep. Ask your doctor before trying this option and only use it as a last resort.

Fixing Sleep Problems & ADHD

By

Some children’s sleep problems can be fixed with a set bedtime and calming routine at night. This involves up to an hour before bedtime dimming lights, avoiding computer/cell phone screens, a warm bath, or quiet activities such as reading. These methods can help all children including those with ADHD fall asleep.

Check here tomorrow for what you can do if your child suffers from ADHD and still has difficulty sleeping even after trying these suggestions.

ADHD Sleep Problems

By

As more kids are diagnosed with ADHD, parents need to deal with their student’s major sleep problems. Prescription stimulants to treat ADHD have contributed to sleep problems in children. Sleeplessness is a common side effect that often occurs either from the drugs themselves or as the drugs wear off at night, which triggers more hyperactivity.

Tomorrow we will look at some ways to help children with ADHD treat their sleep problems.

ALICE (Alert-Lockdown-Inform-Counter-Evacuate)

By

ALICE (Alert-Lockdown-Inform-Counter-Evacuate) calls for alerting the police and implementing a lockdown in response to an armed attacker. This in itself is standard procedure in all schools. ALICE takes it a step further by training students and teachers to consider other options such as evacuating or fighting off the attacker. Teachers and students are trained in ways to stop the gunman as a last resort, if there are no other options.

What do you think about your kids being trained to fight off a gunman in school?
