From The Randolph AD:

we typically have the officials dress at school and then also shower in our girls varsity locker room after the game.  Our principal, Brandi Bartels or myself will meet you at the west doors of our high school and escort you to your locker room--the football field is located on the southeast corner of town and I will get you direction when I see you on Friday--we have parent's night on Friday starting at 6:30 so the coaches meeting and such can take place either before or after that.  I will have a spot reserved for you at the field-located on the northeast corner of the complex by our shed.  My number is 402-360-0165--cell number and you can reach me at that number any time.

Thought of the Week

Game Management: The missing Piece

1. Body language- strong signals

2. Situational awareness-football smarts

3. Dealing with coaches

• Look the coach in the eye
• Let the coach have his say
• Respond
• Be approachable

4. Be a communicator- not a dictator

5. Have some empathy for coaches- it's a difficult job

6. Don't look for trouble

7. Move with purpose (Stand still during penalty enforcement- don't mill around,

it makes us look confused).

Whole-Grade-Sharing Letter to Parents

February 11, 2015

Dear Farragut Elementary/Nishnabotna High School Community Parents,

I am writing this letter to update you on the latest developments regarding changes for the 2015-16 school year.

During their recent accreditation visit, Iowa Department of Education officials, cited several equity and accessibility issues with the facilities in both Farragut and Hamburg  In addition the Iowa School Budget Review Committee ruled on January 21, 2015 that both district’s negative unspent authorized budget authority balances would be eliminated if the districts met certain conditions, specifically that the districts needed to implement building configuration plans that would maximize efficiency and that could be implemented in the shortest amount of time.

Since our Whole-Grade-Sharing arrangement with the Hamburg Community Schools extends through the 2015-16 school year some significant changes will have to be made, in both districts, to allow us to operate past the end of this year. Both the Farragut and Hamburg Boards of Directors have passed resolutions, which modify the Whole-Grade-Sharing agreement to address our facilities situation and the conditions set by the School Budget Review Committee.

 Beginning in August of 2015- the start of the 2015-16 school year:

• We will not be able to use the elementary wing of the school building in Farragut

• We will not be able to use the vocational building in Farragut
• The middle school building in Hamburg will not be used

In order to maximize efficiency and best utilize our facilities so that we will be equity and accessibility compliant, we will be serving students in the following facilities, beginning next August:

• All PK-6 students in the Farragut and Hamburg districts will be served in the Marnie Simons Elementary Building in Hamburg.
• All 7-12 students in the Farragut and Hamburg districts will be served in the Nishnabotna Jr.-Sr. High Building in Farragut.

We are currently working on academic, transportation and staffing plans to support the new building configurations.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.

Respectfully,

Tom

SBRC Approves Additional Budget Authority for Farragut & Hamburg Distircts

Below is the, “Summary of Action” regarding the Farragut and Hamburg Corrective Action Plans at the January 21, 2015 School Budget Review Committee Hearing.

31. Farragut Community School District

The decision of the Committee in this matter is to approve modified supplemental

amount for the 2014-2015 school year in the amount of $803,010 as part of its corrective

action plan, pending receipt of board minutes authorizing the request, and to direct the

district to resubmit its corrective action plan at the April hearings with sufficient

reductions in expenditures to end FY15 with a positive unspent balance. The Committee

directed the district to adopt a plan to maximize the amount of savings in the shortest

period of time.

The district is directed to operate its expenditures in compliance with Iowa Code. The

district shall not expend in the General Fund for FY15 more than $2,002,533, not

including any allowable special education expenditures in excess of special education

receipts, plus actual miscellaneous income received. Miscellaneous income shall not be

expended until received.

The district is directed to submit monthly reports to its board and to the SBRC

demonstrating the financial position of the district in relationship to its certified budget

control lines and to maximum spending authority. These reports shall be available to the

auditor on request.

32. Hamburg Community School District

The decision of the Committee in this matter is to approve modified supplemental

amount for the 2014-2015 school year in the amount of $148,951 as part of its corrective

action plan and to direct the district to resubmit at the April hearings a corrective action

plan that shows sufficient changes to ensure that the district will complete FY15 with a

positive unspent balance. The Committee directed the district to adopt a plan to

maximize the amount of savings in the shortest period of time.

The district is directed to operate its expenditures in compliance with Iowa Code. The

district shall not expend in the General Fund for FY15 more than $2,508,006, not

including any allowable special education expenditures in excess of special education 9

receipts, plus actual miscellaneous income received. Miscellaneous income shall not be

expended until received.

The district is directed to submit monthly reports to its board and to the SBRC

demonstrating the financial position of the district in relationship to its certified budget

control lines and to maximum spending authority. These reports shall be available to the

auditor on request.

The complete findings of from the January 21, 2015 meeting can be found here

Summary:

• Due to the fact that the motion provided a significant amount of modified supplemental aid, $803,010 on behalf of Farragut and $148,950 on behalf of Hamburg the SBRC approved similar motions for each district with the same conditions and it was apparent by their discussions that modified supplemental aid would not be granted without these conditions. The only difference in each motion is the amount of modified supplemental aid.

• The primary condition is that the districts implement a building configuration plan that maximizes potential cost savings to each district and that maximizes the utilization of remaining staff after our budget reductions. In addition the building configuration plan needs to be one that can be implemented in the shortest amount of time that requires the least amount of facility upgrades.

• The only building configuration plan that was discussed during the SBRC hearing was the proposal approved by Farragut  Board at the Monday, January 21, 2015 regular Board meeting. That proposal was based on the proposal that Hamburg Superintendent Terry Kenealy presented at the Mediation Session last week. The SBRC motion was consistent with the proposal, adopted by the Farragut Board, following the Farragut discussion.

• During the discussion it was also stated by Dr. Berger and it was obvious that the committee members were in agreement that the two districts needed to adopt the most efficient and cost effective building configuration plan and stop the movement towards arbitration. Dr. Lane Plugge was in attendance and he concurred that arbitration should be taken off the table.

I believe that the Farragut and Hamburg districts have been given quite possibly our last opportunity to prove that we can step and act in the best interests of our students The SBRC finding will be part of our scheduled phase II accreditation visit in February. Following the accreditation visit, which will examine not only budgetary issues, but also facility equity and accessibility and educational programming the Department of Education will present findings  to the State Board of Education recommending accreditation or non-accreditation of the district(s)  for action at the March State Board of Education Meeting.

LCPS Board Members Recognized During Nebraska School Board Member Week

By

Tom Hinrichs

LCPS Superintendent

January 2014 is School Board Recognition Month

As citizens who serve children and represent their communities, school board members face complex and demanding challenges. All LCPS Patrons should recognize the vital contributions these elected public officials play in the education of our children. They are extraordinary people who voluntarily tackle the enormous job of governing school districts.

January 2014 is School Board Recognition Month—a great time to focus on the crucial role board members play in our communities and schools. 

School board members come from all walks of life. While they wear many hats in the workday world, school board members put on a collective hat when they get down to the business of leading our school districts. Board members must pull together as a team toward a common goal—helping students achieve. While they may individually disagree on certain issues, their role as a board is to consistently strive toward that goal.

The time spent in board meetings represents just a small fraction of the hours school board members devote to leading the LCPS District. They also work hard at seminars and training sessions to keep abreast of the latest trends in educational leadership, are deeply involved in community activities, and spend many hours in the schools and at extracurricular events.

We hope you’ll take this opportunity to help acknowledge the men and women who make the time to share their leadership and voice about the future of Loup City children. 

The men and women serving on the Loup City Public Schools Board of Education, their tenure and terms of office are:

Mike Rademacher: Board President (1991- 2014)

Jerry Kowalski: Board Vice President (2013-2016)

Cindy Ericson: Board Secretary (2011-2014)

Loraine Panowicz: Board Treasurer (1999-2014)

Jim Jaeschke: (1999-2016)

Joe Jerabek (2013-14)

Kelly Griffith: (2005-2016)

Cindy Ference: (2013-2016)

Jill Young: (2013-2016)

Arcadia- Loup City Co-op Extended

The Arcadia and Loup City schools have agreed to extend their co-operative activities agreement for the 2014-15 and 2015-16 school years. The new two-year co-op cycle will encompass junior and senior high NSAA sponsored athletics, including:

·       Football

·       Cross County

·       Golf (girls and boys)

·       Cross Country

·       Basketball

·       Wrestling

·       Track & Field

During this two-year cycle, high school football was added to the Rebel co-op. The Nebraska School Activities Association (NSAA) sets football classification (Classes A, B, C1, C2, and D1 & D2) and compiles football schedules every two years. Classification is determined by the combined enrollment of the co-opting schools. The combined Arcadia-Loup City enrollments will most likely result in the Rebels playing in the class C-2 classification in all co-op activities.

By offering a comprehensive co-operative sports program, the Arcadia and Loup City Schools continue their commitment of providing maximum opportunities for our students of all interests and abilities.
