<description><![CDATA[ (Jan 15, 2013) It&apos;s an eerie sight: Every winter, around dusk each night, a flock of between 20,000 and 30,000 crows gathers in the trees around the Black River in Watertown. They can be a neat sight against the white winter landscape, but the city wants them gone. That&apos;s because they squawk and poop and generally annoy a lot of city residents. The city has hired a wildlife management company to disperse the birds.

<link>http://www.northcountrypublicradio.org/news/story/17908/20110627/saranac-lake-apos-s-anti-bullying-campaign-is-only-a-start</link>

One year later, the school district has completed a series of diversity and anti-bullying programs, activities and training sessions for its students, staff, teachers, principals and school board. The effort was designed to change the culture of the school district. As Chris Knight reports, however, school officials admit they still have much more work to do.
