| Education funding Return to index of stories... |
The State Supreme Court will hear a challenge to the state's school funding formula. The five communities of the Claremont coalition, which launched the original lawsuit over education funding, have maintained that the legislature hasn't yet defined an adequate education or how to fund it - in spite of a 1997 Supreme Court order to do so. The state has argued that the legislature has followed the court's directive, and it should now be up to the legislature to decide how to fund public education. The court has ordered oral arguments in the case to be held January 3rd. |
| Winter Tourism Return to index of stories... |
New Hampshire as a winter wonderland? It's a little tough to envision right now with temperatures reaching the seventies in parts of the state.Still, that's the theme of a new tourism campaign that kicked off Wednesday. The state placed an eight-page advertising supplement in editions of the New York Times, Hartford Courant and Providence Journal to promote skiing and other winter activities and events. Governor Jeanne Shaheen points out people are traveling less, especially by air. The campaign is an attempt by travel officials to promote the state as the ideal place to get away from it all- while staying close to home. |
| Judge Review Return to index of stories... |
New Hampshire Judges may soon come under more scrutiny. The House Judiciary committee will hold a hearing on a review process designed to determine a judge's fitness to serve. Supreme, Superior and District courts would be reviewed by the Judicial Conduct Commission, a new panel that goes into effect in January. The commission would hold hearings, take testimony and examine documents. Then, members would vote on whether a judge should continue to serve. If the commission found a judge to be failing, the case would be referred to the Legislature. |

Fall sports programs are winding down, footballs and field hockey equipment put away for another season. But many parents and youngsters are looking ahead to winter team sports. We wondered about how parents can tell if their child's athletic experience is a good one. Earlier this fall correspondent Lisa Densmore talked with student and coaches about the ups and downs of competition. |

A Brooklyn EMT may be the first to take advantage of an all expense paid trip to the lakes region for rest and relaxation. The Lakes Region Respite Project organized the four day three night stays in the area to give something back to emergency workers dealing with the Spetember 11 terrorist attacks. The EMT has only been identified as a member of Battalion 31 in Brooklyn. He will be visiting the area either this winter or in early spring with his family which includes two children.

Joining me are Dr. Greg Prazar of Exeter Pediatrics, who's practice is participating in the Rural Medical Home Improvement Project, and Ann Dylan, parent of a daughter with a complex condition and a Parent Partner at Exeter Pediatrics. |
