I
f you haven’t heard, Antiques Road
Show is coming to Virginia Beach
in June! More than a year ago, WHRO
applied to the Antiques Roadshow to do a
live broadcast from Hampton Roads and
we learned that we would be the only midAtlantic destination on the summer tour — a
first for our area.
Locally owned by 19 regional school systems,
WHRO is a public service institution of education, culture
and citizenship utilizing its communication resources to
serve and interact with the Hampton Roads community.
March also means Super Tuesday election
coverage and breaking news on WHRV 89.5
FM and classical favorites daily on WHRO
90.3 FM. Please continue to help WHRO and
other community partners, Slover Library,
WVEC Channel 13, and Nauticus, who are
working to find a photo of every one of the
1,307 Virginian service men and women
listed on the Vietnam Veterans Memorial
Wall. The images will become part of the
“Wall of Faces” ­­— a lasting tribute planned
for the Vietnam Memorial Education Center
in Washington D.C.
Legendary musician, artist and collector
David Bowie will be celebrated in a
retrospective which kicks off pledge
programming March 5 from 8:00 - 9:30 p.m.
You may know that Astronaut Chris Hadfield
became an instant celebrity for recording his
version of the Bowie classic “Space Oddity”
from the International Space Station (ISS).
And while it’s unlikely that Scott Kelly will
serenade us during the first installment of
A Year In Space, we will track Scott Kelly’s
mission for 12 months aboard ISS. Read more
about this two part series on the next page.
Many thanks and remember March is the
month to Support What You Love.

BOLDLY GOING
WHERE NO ONE
HAS GONE BEFORE
S
ince the earliest days of recorded time, mankind has looked to the
stars in wonder. As we reached further around the globe in our
quest for exploration and knowledge, we also looked farther and
deeper into the vastness and wonders of space. Once we took those first few
tentative steps into the “final frontier,” it became all too clear how much we
still needed to learn, for it seems all the rules are different when it comes to
our venturing into space.
In a celebration of this spirit of exploration, PBS is having Space Week, a
programming block devoted to aspects of space exploration that will air
on WHRO beginning March 1, 2016. Space Week will include American
Experience “Space Men” (March 1, 9:00 p.m.), which highlights forgotten
heroes and amazing aeronautical feats – including the daring preastronauts who laid groundwork that led to the modern-day space program.
On March 2 at 9:00 p.m. WHRO will re-air NOVA’s “First Man on the
Moon,” which follows Neil Armstrong’s incredible life story from his time
as a pioneer of high-speed flight to that first legendary step on the moon
through never-before heard interviews from his friends and family. Ready
Jet Go!, a new earth science and astronomy series from WHRO KIDS that
builds on children’s curiosity and science, technology and astronomy, also
will premiere new episodes February 29 – March 3.
A Year In Space, airs March 2 at 8:00 p.m., which is a two-part series about
astronaut Scott Kelly, whose current 12-month stay on the International
Space Station (ISS) is testing human limits for space travel and laying the
groundwork for a manned mission to Mars. The first installment of A Year
In Space, will track Scott Kelly’s mission from training and launch, through
his 12 months aboard the International Space Station, right up through his
descent and landing. The second installment airs in 2017. Why the large
gap? It’s because of what NASA is trying to learn.
Despite the technological “comforts” of the ISS, a year in space – the longest
space mission in American history – has been described as the epitome of
extreme, with extraordinarily high physical stakes. Following Scott in space,
and his identical twin Mark Kelly at home on Earth, the specials will tell the
story of what it takes, mentally and physically, to spend a year in space and
then, using what NASA has learned from the Kelly brothers, what it means
for humanity as we journey to Mars and beyond.
In the Kelly brothers, The National Aeronautics and Space Administration
(NASA) has a near-perfect, two-person sample group for biomedical
research. NASA is closely tracking Scott’s physical and emotional changes,
and his biological functions, down to the molecular level while he is in orbit.
The agency hopes to identify precisely what changes happened to Scott as a
result of 12 months in space by comparing him to his identical twin, Mark,
on Earth. What NASA learns about how Scott withstands the physical and
psychological difficulties will provide scientists with key data to develop
methods of overcoming the challenges of human interplanetary travel.
So dust off those phasers, open some astronaut ice-cream, and set a course
for great, great outdoors. Space Week kicks off March 1 at 9:00 p.m. on
WHRO TV15.

Bach, Beethoven and Spring
Celebrating March 21
In a play on words, Beethoven said of Bach, “Not ‘Brook’ but ‘Sea’ should be his name.” (Bach is
German for “brook”). Other composers have expressed similar sentiments, and the public is not
far behind in its praise. Believe it or not, such was not always the case. Immediately after his death,
Bach’s music fell into semi-obscurity before being resurrected by Mendelssohn and others in the
early 19th century. Today, Johann Sebastian Bach is recognized as one of art’s towering geniuses.
Rock musicians, scientists and the man in the street concede Bach’s greatness. Biologist and
essayist Lewis Thomas summed up Bach’s status eloquently when he was asked what he would
choose to send on the Voyager spacecraft to represent mankind. He answered, “I would send the complete works of Johann Sebastian Bach.”
After a pause, he added, “But that would be boasting.”
On the day recognized as Bach’s birthday, March 21, we’ll again offer proof of that. Tune in and immerse yourself. And yes, March 21 is usually
marks the first day of spring, though the equinox sneaks in a bit early this year, at 6:29 a.m. EDT on March 20. No matter – spring and Bach’s
birthday come together most years, enough to make us marvel at that wonderful cosmic coincidence. And if Bach’s music is not enough to help
welcome the new season, there’s lots more: classical music abounds with works celebrating spring. There are piano pieces by Mendelssohn,
songs by Schubert, a symphony by Schumann, an amiable violin sonata by the nature-loving Beethoven and much more. Bach, Beethoven
and spring. It’s all good…and it’s all on the radio.

The Great Computer Challenge is Another Way WHRO
Prepares our Students for their Future
Kayla Segner, Gabrielle Guill and Allie Meade
of Smithfield High School competed in the
Web Design category. They were asked to
create a one page website for a school science
or talent show. There was a long list of
criteria for them to follow, but just a couple
of the guidelines included: basic navigation
with anchor links to each content section, no
inline style tags - a separate CSS file must
be used, and must use proper and semantic
HTML tags.
From left to right: Gabrielle Guill (Smithfield H.S.), Doug Streit (ODU), Kirk Lindsay (Smithfield H.S.), Angela
Franklin (WHRO), Annie Gilstrap (WHRO), Kayla Segner (Smithfield H.S.), Alisa Segner (Westside & Hardy
E.S.) and Kevin Segner (Smithfield M.S.)
T
he future can be a scary thing, but when
students are in a safe, encouraging
environment and are able to explore
the possibilities through a competition
like the Great Computer Challenge, it can
be invigorating.
The Great Computer Challenge (GCC) is a
joint project of WHRO, the Consortium for
Interactive Instruction and Old Dominion
University (ODU) that provides an
opportunity to recognize student achievement,
foster teamwork and introduce students to a
college environment.
The GCC is celebrating 31 years in 2016 and we
are elated to have been acknowledged by The
National Educational Telecommunications
Association (NETA) with their 2015
Community Engagement Award.
Thirty-one years is quite a long time and
we’re back at it on March 5 at ODU’s Webb
Center when over 100 teams of middle and
high school students from all over Hampton
Roads will compete in the following “senior
division” categories: Graphic Design, Desktop
Publishing, Music Composition, Desktop
Presentations, Web Design, Integrated
Applications, Scientific/Non-Business
Programming, Visual Programming, CAD,
JAVA Programming, and Video Editing.
Working together, the teams will do their
best within the timeframe given to them. After
the judging comes the award ceremony where
parents are also invited to join the celebration.
10
Now that you know a little bit more about
the day, why do you think this competition is
important to the students and teachers, and
how is it preparing students for their future?
We gathered Isle of Wight County Schools
(IWCS) students and coaches as well as the
ODU Coordinator, Doug Streit, to meet with
Bob Batcher of Norfolk Perspectives to share
their experiences with the GCC and to help
answer these questions. They expressed the
creativity, the collaboration and excitement
of the day.
In 2015, these IWCS participants competed
in Graphic Design and Web Design. For
Graphic Design, the teams were asked to
pick 4 out of 5 problems to complete within
3 hours. Kirk Lindsay of Smithfield High
School actually worked solo to design an
advertisement for Stop the Texts, Stop
the Wrecks Campaign incorporating
information from the website http://
www.stoptextsstopwrecks.org His
solution is pictured below.
As you can see, these are real world problems,
designed to prepare them their future jobs
while also incorporating 21st century skills
such as collaboration, creative thinking,
and technology literacy, to name a few. You
can check out the interview of the IWCS
participants and the ODU Coordinator with
Bob Batcher of Norfolk Perspectives here.

The Veterans Project
whro.org/Veterans
Caregivers Need Care Too
L
ast October at WHRO’s Veteran’s
Voices Town Hall, a veteran struggled
to maintain composure as he made a
point about how his PTSD affected his family.
wives are the caregivers and
“ Our
we create PTSD for our spouses.
We also create PTSD for our children
and also the grandchildren.We are
not the only ones who need support
for PTSD, we need to support the
whole family.
“
The entire audience could feel his pain and
concern as he spoke.
In 2014 the Rand Corporation conducted a
Military Caregiver Study that estimates “there
are 5.5 million military caregivers across the
United States, with nearly 20 percent caring
for someone who served since September 11,
2001.” Military caregivers are considered “a
family member, friend, or acquaintance who
provides care and assistance for, or manages
the care of, a current or former military service
member with a disabling physical or mental
injury or illness.”
They provide a crucial service as caregivers
allow veterans to remain at home. Many have
a full time job where the demands of the role
can result in needing days off, lost wages, and
even possible job and health insurance loss.
Other caregivers can be aging parents, who
may eventually need care themselves.
Because the pressures of caregiving often
result in a higher rate of personal issues,
it is crucial to ensure caregivers have the
resources and support they need. Fortunately,
many programs, both local and national,
are available and offer help in areas such
as: respite care, case management support,
wellness, caregiver training, and mental and
health services. One national organization
is Caring for Military Families: Elizabeth
Dole Foundation, which funded the Military
Caregiver Study. The site offers a National
Resource Directory that can help locate
organizations near you. Locally, there are also
resources such as the VA Medical Center in
Hampton, which has a number of services
designed specifically to support caregivers.
For these and other resources for caregivers
and veterans, visit WHRO’s Veterans Coming

The youth are the hope for our future
A
s the nation pushes to reach a
90% graduation rate by 2020,
as with any goal, it is important
to know the progress and challenges.
This past January, America’s Promise
Alliance, a national partnership with over
360 organizations, worked with Civic
Enterprises and the Everyone Graduates
Center at Johns Hopkins University to
issue the 2016 Building a Grad Nation
Data Brief: Overview of 2013-14 High
School Graduation Rates, which highlights
state graduation rate trends. Though rates
continue to rise throughout Virginia, there
are key populations that struggle to reach
the goal of a 90%. Alarming gaps exist
between white and minority students
and studies further reveal even wider
gaps between white males and black and
Hispanic males. What is also startling is
the 15 point gap between low-income and
non-low-income youth.
Since 90% of jobs require a high school
diploma, youth who graduate can have
tremendous positive economic impact on

communities. America’s Promise Alliance
not only offers data on graduation, they
also offer a solution they refer to as the “5
Promises.”
PROMISE NO. 4: Effective Education
PROMISE NO. 1: Caring Adults
PROMISE NO. 5: Opportunities to Help Others
In order to compete and succeed, all young
people will need an effective education that
prepares them for work and life.
Caring adults are the centerpiece of
children’s development. They serve as
guides, caretakers and advisers, who
give positive and productive guidance
throughout their development.
The chance to give back teaches young
people the value of service to others, the
meaning of community, and the selfrespect that comes from knowing that one
has a contribution to make in the world.
PROMISE NO. 2: Safe Places
When at least four of these promises are at
work in young people’s lives, they are more
likely to succeed academically, socially and
civically. What can you promise?
To develop intellectually and emotionally,
young people need physical and
psychological safety at home, at school
and in the community.
PROMISE NO. 3: A Healthy Start
Healthy and well-nourished children are
more able to develop their minds and
bodies as they should, and they are far
more capable of concentrating, learning
and thriving throughout their school years.
