First grade has been using their computer class to make stop-motion animation films about community workers. First, each table group was assigned a different community worker: fire fighters, police officers, construction workers, train workers, or airline workers. The students used the computer to draw a backdrop in front of which their animation would be filmed. After story-boarding three different ways the community workers helps in the community, the students collaborated to create stop-motion films. Learn how these community workers do their jobs and help us in the process.

Home to 23 different ethnic / linguistics populations, São Gabriel da Cachoeira is a geographically complex municipality located in the State of Amazonas in the North Region of Brazil and has reported among the highest incidence of malaria cases in the country. In 2018, a malaria outbreak was declared as cases reached more than 15,000. Through strong collaboration with various partners such as the Army and integration of efforts into the Primary Health Care system, key malaria interventions such as early diagnosis and treatment, vector control, and real time case mapping have been effectively carried out resulting to an approximate decrease of 50% in cases in 2019. This malaria champion demonstrates that the appropriate implementation of current malaria tools and interventions, leveraging on key partnerships and optimizing the reach of Primary Health can successfully reverse the increasing incidence of the disease in complex environments and strongly position communities towards subsequently eliminating malaria.
Settled primarily by settlers from Texas and the southern states, Corn Hill was one of the earliest communities in Williamson County. John E. King, county judge from 1858 to 1860, named it for the home he built on a hill and nearby cornfield in 1852. The dispersed agricultural community was the first stop on the stage line running from Georgetown to Fort Gates (Coryell County).
A post office opened in 1855 and by the 1860s, an influx of new residents settled here. In 1878, George G. Grant established Corn Hill Academy male and Female School, built on land donated by Judge King. It thrived and in 1886 moved to a new two-story building with four classrooms, a bell tower and an auditorium, which provided meeting space fro local church services. By 1893, a public school opened as part of Corn Hill Independent School District.
By the end of the 19th century, Corn Hill had a saddle club, several churches, two local cotton gins, Corn Hill College, fraternal lodges and school organizations. By the early 1900s, community residents became active in Populist politics and in the Farmers’ Union. Industrial activity in the early 1900s included the Corn Hill and Gravis Telephone Company and a waterworks; a planned interurban to Bartlett never materialized.
The settlement began to decline in 1909 when the Bartlett Western Railway bypassed two miles to the north, establishing the town of Jarrell. Steam engines helped move homes and businesses to the new townsite, and other moved to the village of New Corn Hill, but many residents chose to remain here. Today, the dispersed Corn Hill settlement survives as a reminder of the area’s early agrarian heritage. (2007) (Marker No. 14183)
