Future teachers, we need you | News, Sports, Jobs

Alpena News editorial We were excited to read reporter Crystal Nelson’s recent story saying Alcona Community Schools had recently received $10,000 from the state to help students in middle school and high school explore careers in education. Teachers are the foundation of the nation. The skills and work ethic they help instill in our students today will determine the kinds of workers, entrepreneurs, inventors, and leaders we have tomorrow. Yet we’re building a foundation that’s too small. In eight years, enrollment in Michigan’s teacher prep programs dropped 70%, Bridge Magazine reported last year, with 16,000 fewer college students majoring in K-12 education in the 2017 than in 2009. Too few teachers can drive up class sizes and pull away from available course offerings.

Gravel pit turned to sled hill | News, Sports, Jobs

cnelson@thealpenanews.com News Photo by Crystal Nelson A sign marks the entrance of the Caledonia Public Downhill Sledding Park on Saturday off of Spruce Road near Olson Road in Spruce. SPRUCE A long-time gravel pit has been transformed into a sledding hill at the corner of Spruce Road and Olson Road in Spruce. Park goers can choose to sled down six different hills. Caledonia Township Supervisor Cyndi Apsey said the Caledonia Public Downhill Sledding Park opened in January after a group of community volunteers helped clean up and clear trees from the sledding hills. Apsey said the township has owned the property since the 1980s, but it was previously used by people for target practice.

Population trends concerning | News, Sports, Jobs

Feb 27, 2021 We doubt very many Northeast Michiganders want to see our rusticly beautiful home turn into a bustling mini-metropolis. We certainly don’t. However, recent reporting by News staff writer Crystal Nelson shows Northeast Michigan moving in the wrong direction. For years, death rates here have exceeded birth rates, and too few people have moved into the area to make up for that natural population loss. To a potential developer, fewer residents means fewer customers, and our long-term trends could cause that potential developer to look elsewhere for places to spend his or her money. Now, we face a bit of a chicken-or-the-egg situation. Investment, which means jobs and a quality of life, could cause more people to stay here or move here, but we may need more people to stay here and move here before we get that investment.

RC folks need to talk | News, Sports, Jobs

Alpena News editorial Disturbing news out of Rogers City recently, as the Rogers City school district decided to put up for sale its Grambau Education Center, asking $500,000 and apparently taking the Presque Isle District Library folks by surprise. According to reporting by News staff writer Crystal Nelson, the library folks were very publicly interested in that building for a library and community center and had openly pursued the idea of a property tax proposal. They’d already raised $12,000 toward the project, but they had no formal agreement with the school district to keep the building on hold for them. Nick Hein, school superintendent, told his Board of Education he had talked to the library and urged them to continue pursuing the project, but, “If we are just narrowing ourselves to one thing, we’re not accomplishing it all the way.” Putting the building up for sale does not preclude any deal from coming together.
