<strong>September</strong> <strong>2018</strong> | The <strong>Trails</strong>
Earns anA<br />
Send your kids to school with a nutritious<br />
breakfast and they might come home with<br />
better test scores and fewer behavioral<br />
problems. There’s no doubt about it -<br />
breakfast is a big deal. Decades of research<br />
have shown that kids who make this meal a<br />
habit have better diets, healthier bodies,<br />
higher test scores, lighter moods and more<br />
mental stamina. No matter how hectic your<br />
mornings are, it’s worth taking the time to<br />
make sure your kids get good food before<br />
school starts.<br />
Does breakfast really make a difference?<br />
Food fuels the body with glucose, the main<br />
energy source for the mind and muscles. This<br />
refueling is especially important in the<br />
morning because the body hasn’t had any<br />
food since the night before. Children’s daily<br />
nutrient intake also tends to be higher when<br />
they eat breakfast, according to the American<br />
Dietetic Association (ADA). Whole-grain cereal<br />
with milk and a glass of citrus juice, for<br />
example, delivers lots of vitamin C,<br />
calcium, thiamin, riboflavin, fiber, iron<br />
and folate.<br />
Children who eat breakfast are also<br />
more likely to have lower blood<br />
cholesterol levels and are less likely to<br />
gain weight, miss school or visit the<br />
school nurse than children who don’t<br />
have a morning meal.<br />
Make a breakfast plan<br />
Mornings can often be the busiest<br />
part of the day. To help make sure<br />
breakfast stays on your family’s<br />
schedule no matter how pressed for<br />
time you are, try these tips from the<br />
ADA and the American Academy of<br />
Pediatrics (AAP).<br />
• Set your table the night before. Save<br />
yourself a few precious minutes in the<br />
morning by setting out dishes, cereal,<br />
bagels, bread, fruit or instant breakfast<br />
mix before you go to bed.<br />
• Use last night’s leftovers. Don’t fret if<br />
it’s not traditional breakfast food. A<br />
slice of pizza or macaroni and cheese<br />
warmed up in the microwave can still<br />
provide needed nutrients.<br />
• Keep your cupboards and fridge stocked<br />
with quick, healthy breakfast foods, such<br />
as granola bars, bagels, bananas, yogurt,<br />
cottage cheese, dried fruit, instant<br />
oatmeal, whole-wheat toaster waffles and<br />
fruit or vegetable juice.<br />
• Be flexible. If your child can’t or won’t eat<br />
first thing in the morning, offer fruit juice<br />
at home and pack a breakfast to go.<br />
English muffins or bagels with peanut<br />
butter, a low-fat cheese sandwich or<br />
whole-wheat banana nut bread will travel<br />
well. You can also ask if your child can<br />
have breakfast at school-many school<br />
cafeterias offer morning meals.<br />
The best breakfasts include foods with<br />
carbohydrates, proteins and fats. This type<br />
of meal can satisfy hunger and maintain<br />
blood sugar levels for hours. Sugary foods<br />
cause a quick rise in blood sugar and<br />
energy that fizzles out in about one hour.<br />
The bottom line on breakfast<br />
A morning meal gives kids an edge on<br />
hunger, energy and brainpower. Even if it<br />
means setting alarm clocks 20 minutes<br />
early, find a way to make breakfast a<br />
regular at your house-your kids aren’t<br />
ready for school without it.<br />

GARDEN TIPS FOR SEPTEMBER<br />
Time now to make plans for fall landscaping projects.<br />
• Clean up flowerbeds of fallen foliage, yellowed leaves and dead<br />
wood. Light green leaves may signify lack of iron (chlorosis). Correct<br />
with iron cheleates.<br />
• Cut off old dead foliage on irises. Scratch in a little bone meal around<br />
the roots.<br />
• Prune roses to reshape and groom plants for fall growth. Follow up<br />
with a dose of fertilizer the first week of <strong>September</strong>.<br />
• Plants come out of summer rest and go crazy. Insect populations<br />
explode as we get into cooler temperatures. Diseases that have been<br />
dormant wake up.<br />
- Citrus, croton, avocado and mango are susceptible to spider mites<br />
and thrips. Discourage them with a strong jet of water from a hose<br />
directed to the undersides of the leaves.<br />
- Hibiscus, citrus, palms, gardenia and ixora are susceptible to scale<br />
and mealybug.<br />
• Winter vegetable gardens and perennials get planted.<br />
• Wait until November to plant petunias and pansies.<br />
• Fire ants baits should be put out in <strong>September</strong>-October to lessen the<br />
number of eggs that make it to Spring.<br />
• St. Augustine grass gets its fall fertilizer during <strong>September</strong>. Continue<br />
to mow at maximum height. You want to leave a lot of leaf surface to<br />
produce carbohydrate reserves for the winter.<br />

• Keep an eye out for sod webworms. First sign of them is grass that<br />
appears to stop growing. You need to get them early for biological<br />
controls to work. When the caterpillars are only 1/4 inch, Bacillus<br />
thuringiensis applications can slow them. Bt is a bacteria that works<br />
on the caterpillars’ digestive systems and makes them stop feeding.<br />
Do the application late in the day. The larvae feed at night and you<br />
want them to get nice fresh Bt.<br />
• When the heat and drought end, the weather could bring brown<br />
patch disease in the St. Augustine grass. Watch for yellowish spots if<br />
the nights drop into the 60’s and days stay in the 80’s.<br />
• Get any pruning of hedges and such done now. You want the flush of<br />
new growth to be hardened-off before the end of October. Tree pruning<br />
should be put off until winter, when the trees are dormant.<br />
• Pre-emerge herbicide applications targeting annual bluegrass and<br />
the earlier-germinating winter broadleaf weeds needed to be put out<br />
starting in mid-August.<br />

Two Katy Isd High Schools<br />
Are “Best In Houston Area”<br />
Katy ISD is known to have some of the best schools in the area and just<br />
recently Cinco Ranch High and Seven Lakes High were recognized as part<br />
of the top 100 list of “the best high schools in the Houston area for <strong>2018</strong>”<br />
according to the nonprofit organization Children at Risk.<br />
For 13 years, Children at Risk has ranked Texas schools to help parents,<br />
educators and community members understand how their schools are<br />
performing and to spark dialogue on the quality of public education<br />
across Texas. This year Seven Lakes High School received an A+ and<br />
Cinco Ranch received an A.<br />
“Katy ISD has a total of 10 high schools, including our Miller Career &<br />
Technology School and Raines High School and many of them often<br />
find themselves ranking high on these prestigious lists,” said Assistant<br />
Superintendent for Secondary School Leadership and Support Jeff Stocks.<br />
“Katy ISD continues to be a destination school district where families find<br />
great opportunities for their children to reach their fullest potential.”<br />
To rank the schools, researchers examine student achievement,<br />
achievement plus poverty level, student growth and college readiness.<br />

artistic duo, Havel Ruck Projects, made up of local artists, Dan Havel and<br />
Dean Ruck, transformed a previously abandoned house into an interactive<br />
temporary public sculpture. Sourced from Cherry House Moving Company,<br />
the 1940s-era house was originally located in Santa Fe, Texas. After moving<br />
the home to Sam Houston <strong>Park</strong> in April, Havel and Ruck stripped the<br />
structure’s interior and exterior using drill saws and other tools. They cut<br />
circular holes into the walls and filled them with PVC pipe to create a “Swiss<br />
cheese” or “lace” appearance and collaged the interior walls with vintage<br />
images sourced from family, friends and local resale shops representing the<br />
city’s people, places and past.<br />

methods.<br />

GOOD NEIGHBOR DAY<br />
SEPTEMBER 28 TH<br />
Neighbors are an integral part of our social lives - whether at home or at work. Good<br />
Neighbor Day on <strong>September</strong> 28 th is an annual holiday that promotes neighborliness<br />
and niceness towards people who surround us.<br />
How to Celebrate?<br />
• Be nice to your neighbor - at home or elsewhere.<br />
• If you don’t know your neighbors well, maybe today is your<br />
chance to go up to them and strike up a conversation.<br />
• Bake some goodies and share them with your neighbors.<br />
Bring them to work for your work neighbors.<br />
• Invite your neighbors to your home for a meal.<br />
Did You Know…<br />
…that the word neighbor comes from the Old English word neahgebur,<br />
where neah means near and gebur means inhabitant?<br />
On <strong>September</strong> 28 th , National Good Neighbor Day is celebrated. This annual holiday<br />
was first proclaimed by President Jimmy Carter in 1978. Mrs. Becky Mattson<br />
from Lakeside, Montana came up with the idea of a national holiday recognizing<br />
the importance of good neighbors in 1971. In 1978, U.S. President Jimmy Carter<br />
announced the creation of a national day aimed at raising public awareness that<br />
good neighbors help achieve human understanding and build strong, thriving<br />
communities. Since then, National Good Neighbor Day has been acknowledged<br />
by various levels of government and is celebrated every year. The holiday was<br />
originally celebrated on the fourth Sunday in <strong>September</strong>, but in 2003 its date<br />
was changed to <strong>September</strong> 28 th . On this day, Nextdoor.com, a social network for<br />
neighborhoods, announces the recipients of Nextdoor’s Good Neighbor Award.<br />
Everyone can nominate a neighbor or a group of neighbors by writing a short story<br />
about what they have done to help their local community and make it a better<br />
place. National Good Neighbor Day is the perfect occasion to honor the people<br />
who make significant contributions to creating safer neighborhoods and stronger<br />
communities across the United States.<br />
