Ellendale Elementary Students Raise Money for the Make-A-Wish Foundation The students at Ellendale Elementary raised a whopping $368.68 for the North Dakota Make-A Wish Foundation. Abbie Welter, a sophomore at Ellendale High School, spear-headed this fundraising effort by volunteering her time to make all of the plans. The students were excited to join in, and as always, willing to give of themselves to help others.

In a friendly little competition, each of the classrooms worked together to bring in as many pennies as they could. The end reward was a Freezee Party for the class that collected the most money. The winning class was Mrs. Zahn’s 5th graders, having collected $85.30. In a close second, was Mrs. Vance’s 6th graders with $76.94. It is amazing how all of those “little” pennies can actually add up to quite a LOT! Thank you to everyone that made this fundraiser possible! Hats off to ALL of the Ellendale Elementary students…you will most certainly make someone’s Wish come true!

Winter Break December 23 to January 2 School Resumes: January 3 Mrs. Zahn’s 5th Graders and Abbie Welter pose for a picture after the winners were announced.

Students learn from a real “cowboy” Mrs. Meidinger, Mrs. Schmidt, and Mrs. DeWald’s Second and Third Grade classes were very excited to have a guest speaker in their classroom.

Mr. Cody Sand visited the classroom to share his knowledge in leather working. He showed the students a saddle and three types of chaps that he had made and explained why cowboys use them.

He talked about individual branding irons and demonstrated how to rope and brand calves. Each student was able to sit in the saddle to see how it felt to be a “real” cowboy.

This was part of a culminating activity that went along with stories in our reading series. We appreciated the time he spent with our students and feel that it really added to the students’ understanding of the stories.

Post Prom Committee 2012 by Leslie Morrissey Post Prom Volunteers -Thank you for all your assistance and selling of the Little Caesar’s Pizzas.

We reached our goal for that fund raiser. Our next meeting will be January 10th, Tuesday, at 5pm in Room 104 of the Elementary School.

We’re Improving Test Scores - With Your Help!

Junior parents take note: Ellendale High School is pleased to provide students with testGEARTM, an online course designed to help every student achieve higher test scores.

This year, all students planning to write their ACT exam can prepare themselves by using the testGEAR preparation course from school or from home. testGEAR online courses are proven to improve student performance on big exams like the PSAT, SAT, ACT, and state-wide exams (sometimes called high school exit exams, covering math, English language arts, science and social studies). testGEAR online courses can lead to stronger academic skills, better college admission test performance, and possible scholarships for the students. It is provided over the Internet at no cost to the student.

Each student receives a personalized study plan based on a brief diagnostic test. Depending on the course, students are guided through 25 to 50 hours of online instruction that strengthens skills with the subject matter, introduces test-taking strategies, and builds confidence with many short practice tests and full-length exams.

If you are interested in learning more about this powerful new online tool, please contact one of the following individuals at the school (701.349.3232): Mrs. Jane Reisenauer, Mr. Peter Sykora, Mrs. Colette Middlestead, or Mrs. Darla Herman.

Video and Computer Games: Often Not so Good for Kids Tip from Love and Logic© Expert Charles Fay "My typically nice and responsible kid turns into a monster after he plays his computer games." If you've noticed this same thing with your kids, you're not alone. Listed below are some thoughts about why this is so common, as well as actions we can take to protect our kids: Understand that Electronic Games can be Extremely Addictive Since most of these games operate according to variable schedules of reinforcement (the user cannot entirely predict when something exciting will happen) our kids get hooked into thinking that they have to play "just a little bit longer" each time. Even educational games present these risks. To grab the attention of the learner, our kids' favorite games are highly entertaining…and stimulating. Is it any wonder that kids who spend too much time glued to these games find everything else boring? Real life is always a downer when you're hooked on electronic uppers. The symptoms of withdrawal also indicate the addictive nature of these games: Irritability, extreme moodiness, and attempts to get a "fix" even if it requires manipulating and mistreating those who love you the most.

Set Enforceable Limits Children under 5 should spend almost no time playing video games, computer games, or watching television. Again, this also applies to educational games and shows. Older children shouldn't spend more that 15-30 minutes per day engaged in these activities. Wise parents set the following limit: I allow video games, computer games, or TV in our home only when they are causing no problems. Wise parents don't hesitate to remove these items from the home when "problems" begin.

Replace Electronic Screens with Loving Relationships Kids don't miss their computers and TVs near as much when they have parents who spend plenty of time with them playing catch, riding bikes, sledding, and doing other sorts of good old-fashioned things that build relationships.

Students in Grades 10 & 11 are encouraged to apply for ND Governor’s School for the Summer of 2012.

This is an intensive six-week program (3 weeks in June and 3 weeks in July) at the North Dakota State University campus that is FREE for students who are accepted into this program. The students apply for the area of his or her interest (Mathematics, Laboratory Science, Information Technology, English Studies or Performing Arts). The experience offers highly concentrated instruction through classroom experiences, discussion groups, labs, field trips and other activities. Performing arts students take their work on the road, visiting towns across the state. Governor’s School participants live in NDSU residence halls and eat in campus dining halls. Like college students they are responsible for transportation to and from campus and personal expenses, such as laundry and snacks.

North Dakota Governor’s School is looking for high school sophomores and juniors who are: selfmotivated, mature, responsible, imaginative, eager to learn and ready for a challenge. See the following teachers for an application: Mrs. Herman (Math), Mrs. Martin (Business) or Mr. Sykora or Mr. Hoffman (Science), or Mrs. Reisenauer (School Counselor).

Dillon Thorpe Weather Kid on KVLY On Thursday, December 8th during the 5 o'clock news on channel 11 with Hutch Johnson, Dillon was the KVLY Weather Kid of the Day. While at the KVLY station, he got a tour and was able to see the old studio where the news and weather used to take place. He was then ushered to the new set where he practiced his skills with Hutch.

Then he went live on the air! Dillon stated, “I would do it again! I was nervous when I got there, but I still had lots of fun telling about the weather.” He also would recommend others to sign up and give it a try! Great job Dillon!

Open Enrollment Deadline – March 1st

Students who wish to enroll in another school district for next year, under North Dakota’s open enrollment law, must have applications filed by March 1st. The law enables students to attend school in a district other than the one in which they live or currently attend. Application forms may be obtained from either the district the student wishes to attend or from the district of residence.

The admitting district must receive the completed application by March 1st and has until April 1st, to act on the application.

The Communication Corner by Mrs. Huston In the previous newsletters, I have written about various speech-language difficulties we deal with on a daily basis here at our school. There are many other areas that we can discuss; however, before we get too much farther into the year, I thought it might be important to address when a parent might consider asking for help…and how to go about getting that help.

In my two+ years here, I have had several parents tell me they were unaware services were available for their child through the school as early as age three. Many parents thought they had to wait until their child was in kindergarten to receive services. I have also had a few parents tell me their pediatrician told them not to worry – their child was “just a late talker.”

First, let me say if you are concerned about your child – then it’s time to ask for a bit of guidance. If your child is very young – under a year – and not turning her head to localize sounds – it may be time to ask. If your child is 3 and not talking at all – it may be time to ask. If your child is 4 or 5 and can’t talk to Grandma on the phone because Grandma can’t understand her – it may be time to ask. As the parent you know your child the best. If you are concerned about his or her speech and language you have every right to ask for help - and the best news is, you don’t need a doctor’s referral to get it. Here’s how…

If your child is under three, he or she may qualify for help through the South Central Region Kids Program (SCR Kids). SCR Kids program is a home based, family-focused service provided at no cost to families having an eligible infant or toddler until their 3rd birthday. Services are provided by early childhood special educators, speech-language pathologists, occupational therapists, and social workers in the home or daycare center. Eligibility is based on the results of a free comprehensive developmental evaluation. If you have a child under 3 and are at all concerned about his or her development in any area, I encourage you to contact SC-Kids at 701-952-3500.

If your child is 3 or older, and you have concerns about their speech and language the place to start is the school. As a parent, you have the right to request a speech and language screening for your child.

The typical process is: you request a screening, we schedule it, the school sends out a parent questionnaire about your child’s speech-language development, and we conduct the screening. The screening typical takes about 15-30 minutes and is very informal. At that time, we will be able to see whether the student may need further evaluation to receive services. Services provided through the school are at no cost to you.

If a formal evaluation is needed the processes is as follows. The screening occurs first, then an assessment planning meeting where you, the principal, teachers (if applicable), and myself get together to discuss where the child is developmentally and what questions we need answered by the evaluation.

A signed consent must be provided before any testing can occur. Once the consent is signed, testing will start. When testing is finished, the team (parents, teachers, etc.) will come together to discuss the results and determine what happens next. If the child qualifies for services through the school (according to ND Dept. of Public Instruction), and the team determines services should begin, an Individualized Education Plan (IEP) will be written and services will begin. Of course, the parents have final say and no services can be started without parents signed consent. If the child does not qualify for services through the school, he or she may still qualify for services provided by an outside person. However, the school would not be responsible for those services and all expenses would be the parents’ responsibility.

Next month, I will return to writing about different difficulties students may have and ways you can help them at home. As always, if you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at the school.

Music News Kellemon Hinton and Tim Coe will be attending the All State Chorus auditions, at NDSU, Sunday, January 8.

Good luck Gentlemen!

CLIMB Theater Presents to K-12 Students By: Journalism Students

If Lady Gaga and Elvis told you not to do drugs, wouldn’t you be convinced? Although Victor and Amanda were just look-a-likes their performance was highly education yet entirely unconventional.

These actors came from the CLIMB Theatre, which is based out of Inner Grove Heights, Minnesota. It reaches over 200,000 students in six different states. CLIMB is a non-profit organization that has gone around to different K-12 schools for thirty-six years. The theatre has many different programs including ones about bullying, self-control, respect, and the environment. The topic Victor and Amanda talked about was preventing the use of drugs and alcohol.

Don’t do drugs has been a slogan for many mediocre and unenticing posters, books, and speeches but using a lovely sculpture of a cocaine addict being shunned by humanity is a very new twist on the idea.

And the CLIMB Theater got better from there too. If the still motion was funny, the acting could kill you.

Actually acting in front of friends made the situations more realistic. All the intensity and nerve-wracking acting was enough to make our solutions to refusing drugs look a little “sketchy,” but isn’t that how it would really be? We did get a kick out of it though. I mean, could you hold in the laughs if your friends were suddenly referred to as Jamal, Benito, or Muhammad?

It wasn’t all fun and games though. Doing drugs or drinking doesn’t just affect the user directly; other people can get mingled up in the messy situation as well. This was a point that they hit home on when we were turned into human sculptures.

So how do you prevent the fire from starting? Saying no, it’s cliché, but true. It is also very circumstantial.

All in all, CLIMB was convincing enough to make us think about the effects of drugs and alcohol in our lives and how we can prevent them with one simple thing, action!

Music Boosters Meeting Music Boosters will be meeting Monday, January 16 at 5:15 pm in the Band Room. Support the present and future music students of our school by attending. Future fundraising events will be discussed. Parents of all elementary and high school students are encouraged to come.

Hope to see you there!

Title Information for Parents Title I – Improving the Academic Achievement of the Disadvantaged Description of the Program: The purpose of Title I is to ensure that all children have a fair, equal, and significant opportunity to obtain a high quality education and reach, at a minimum, proficiency on challenging state academic achievement standards and state academic assessments. Title I provides instructional services to students who struggle academically. (Example of Involvement: Title I students are selected on multiple, objective, uniformly applied criteria. If a student who is home educated meets the Title I criteria, he/she could participate in the Title I program and receive instruction in Title I reading and/or math. The home educator would work with the Title I teacher and have the student come to the school at the time when other students at that grade level are receiving services in Title I.) Title II Part A – Teacher and Principal Training and Recruitment Fund Description of the Program: The purpose of the Title II Part A program is to increase academic achievement of all students through strategies such as improving teacher and principal quality, increasing the number of highly qualified teachers in the classroom and highly qualified principals and assistant principals in schools, and reducing class size especially in the early grades. Title II Part A also helps hold school districts and schools accountable for improvements in student academic achievement.

(Example of Involvement: The school offers professional development throughout the year to increase teacher quality through the funding from Title II Part A funds. The home educator may also be interested in attending some of these trainings.)

Title II Part D – Enhancing Education through Technology Description of the Program: The purpose of Title II Part D is to improve student academic achievement through the use of technology in elementary and secondary schools; to assist every student in crossing the digital divide by ensuring that every student is technologically literate by the end of eighth grade; and to encourage the effective integration of technology through teacher training and curriculum development to establish successful research-based instructional methods. (Example of Involvement: Home educators may have their students access the technology that is available within our school. Scheduling can be discussed at the school office.)

Title IV Part A – Safe and Drug-Free Schools and Communities Description of the Program: The purpose of Title IV Part A is to support programs that prevent violence in and around schools; to prevent the illegal use of alcohol, tobacco, and drugs; to involve parents and communities; and to coordinate with related federal, state, school, and community efforts and resources to foster a safe and drug-free learning environment that supports student academic achievement.

(Example of Involvement: Throughout the year, our school schedules time to cover topics related to safety and health. Home educators are encouraged to learn about our curriculum. Home educated students may participate in safety and health related activities.)

Title V – Promoting Informed Parental Choice and Innovative Programs Description of the Program: The purpose of Title V is to support local education reform efforts that are consistent with and support statewide education reform efforts and to provide funding to implement promising educational reform programs and school improvement programs based on scientifically-based research. This program provides a continuing source of innovation and educational improvement to help meet the educational needs of all students, including at-risk youth. Title V helps develop and implement education programs to improve school, student, and teacher performance. (Example of Involvement: The home educator may access the library services and materials for use with their students, may attend professional development paid for through Title V, or access the technology labs.)

Ellendale School District has procedures and policy (GABCA) in place for receiving and resolving disputes pertaining to any of the Federal Title Programs. Please contact Anna Sell for further information.

TIPS FOR DRIVING “ABOVE THE INFLUENCE” A POSITIVE ATTITUDE MAKES A DIFFERENCE.

Many teen crashes aren’t caused by a lack of skills or knowledge but by attitude and maturity. Be sure to develop and practice a responsible driving attitude.

PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT.

Work with your parents to get plenty of supervised practice for at least six months before you take the driver’s license test – consider asking them to establish a set practice schedule with you. Practice driving in different conditions so you know what to expect in inclement weather, heavy traffic, urban and rural situations and night driving. Ask your parents what tips they have for handling these situations. The more experience you have prior to your driving test the more confident you will feel behind the wheel.

UNDERSTAND THE IMPORTANCE OF DRIVING “ABOVE THE INFLUENCE” OF DRUGS OR ALCOHOL.

Drinking alcohol or using drugs when driving is totally unacceptable.

Not only is it dangerous, it’s also illegal and can cost you your license.

Just one drink or one joint causes a chemical effect on the brain that can impair the senses and affect judgment and reaction time.

Prescription drugs taken with a physician’s order might also affect your senses so be aware of any potential side effects before getting behind the wheel and never take a drug that wasn’t prescribed for you.

LIMIT THE NUMBER OF RIDERS.

Limit the number of friends you drive in your car if you’re a new driver.

Your risk of a fatal crash increases with each additional passenger and overcrowding your car can leave riders without seatbelts.

DRIVE WHILE THE SUN IS UP.

Stick to daytime driving when you first get started. Your risk of a fatal crash is three times higher at night per mile driven.

TAKE IT SLOW.

Save the highway and other fast-moving, heavy traffic situations until you’ve had plenty of supervised practice. Gradually take on more difficult driving situations – such as merge ramps, major urban areas and rush-hour – once you’re more comfortable with your driving capabilities. Don’t forget, speeding is the #1 reason new drivers lose control of their vehicles.

TIME FOR STORMY WEATHER.

Rainstorms, snow, sleet and ice can create scary and dangerous driving conditions, even more so for inexperienced drivers. Get as much supervised practice on the road during poor weather conditions as you can.

STOW AWAY THE CELL PHONE.

Talking or texting on your cell phone while you’re driving is a dangerous activity. If it’s necessary to use your phone, pull safely over to the side of the road before even picking it up.

IT’S ALL ABOUT THE RIDE.

Talk with your parents about what family vehicle you will drive. Larger cars with fully equipped safety features such as airbags and anti-lock brakes will offer better protection in a crash. Seatbelts come standard in all vehicles and save thousands of lives each year. Plus, a majority of states have seatbelt laws that require drivers and passengers to buckle up. Play it safe – wear a seatbelt every time you get in the car and save your cash for something other than tickets.
