  Orphanage News - September 2001
I know many of you that have been sponsoring a schoolchild are wondering when you will hear from me about the upcoming school year.
And if your schoolchild was adopted during the past school year I'd love to have you sponsor one of these new children.
Here's a message from one of our schoolchild sponsors who was able to visit the orphanage where she is sponsoring a child (the orphanage her older daughter was adopted from) while in China to adopt another child:

 Wikinfo | Scholar   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23)
A scholar is either a student or someone who has achieved a "mastery" of some academic discipline.
In British usage, a scholar is equally likely to be a schoolchild (usually a boy) or a learned person.
The word sometimes carries an connotation making it remote from modern America; it can aptly be used to describe learned persons of other times or places, but rarely is it used for the most educated persons of the modern United States.

 3 health workers arrested after hepatitis vaccine kills a schoolchild and makes 120 others ill   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23)
After a hepatitis vaccine was administered in their schools in central China, one child died and another 120 have become ill.
China is currently fighting the growth of counterfeit or substandard food, medicines, sanitary products and agricultural materials, all of which can directly affect public safety.
Also on June 16, in the southern Yunnan province, a homemade chicken pox vaccine killed a schoolchild and 151 students and a teacher became ill, many having to be hospitalized suffering from diarrhea and nausea after having the vaccine which was apparently made from traditional Chinese herbal medicines.

 How You Can Help: School Tuitions
I hope that most of you will decide to continue your current sponsorship and that there will be some more of you who would like to begin sponsoring a child.
New sponsors will get an info sheet and photo of the child they'll be sponsoring and if they were sponsored by us last year we'll send you a copy of the school report.
We won't get mid-year school reports and photos this year since Amity just isn't able to do this with the small staff they have (to keep their administrative costs low) but we will continue to get the end of the year reports and photos.

 What is Time? : Lee Smolin
Every schoolchild knows what time is. But, for every schoolchild, there is a moment when they first encounter the paradoxes that lie just behind our everyday understanding of time.
And to pass on, from schoolchild to schoolchild, the joy of wondering, of asking, and of telling each other what we know and what we don't know.
LEE SMOLIN, a theoretical physicist, is professor of physics and member of the Center for Gravitational Physics and Geometry at Pennsylvania State University.

 Defuse health time bomb by giving every schoolchild free dinners - [Sunday Herald]   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23)
For low-income families it would be a significant anti-poverty measure, saving them up to £40 a month per child, and all parents would know what their children were eating.
Giving every schoolchild a free dinner would also remove the stigma of being poor, which still shamefully blights our children in 21st century Scotland.
No amount of swipecards will get rid of that; kids still know who’s better off because they can buy more with their cards.

 Native ingenuity - The Boston Globe
LIKE EVERY AMERICAN schoolchild, I learned the story of the Pilgrims in school--how half of the Plymouth colonists died of starvation in the first winter, the remainder surviving only by squatting on an abandoned Indian village and ransacking Indian homes and graves for caches of food.
But it was only as an adult, visiting the splendid reconstruction of the colony in Plymouth, that it occurred to me to wonder why the local Wampanoag Indians had let them stay.
Charles C. Mann is the author of ''1491: New Revelations of the Americas Before Columbus," which has just been published by Knopf.
