INDEPENDENT Talk of the town ‘Speechies’ pile up the honors

BY DAVID SCHUELLER dschueller@swpub.com

G e t a g r oup o f s p e e c h team students — affectionately known to each other as speechies — together to talk about speech, and a couple things become clear.

They are enthusiastic about speech, and they have no problem telling you why.

This year, well into the season, the team has even more about which to talk, in addition to describing a fun, tightknit atmosphere that develops on the team and with speechies of other schools.

The Jordan speech team won first place in four meets in a row this year. “This is a first for us to have four first places in a row,� head coach Amy Peters said.

Speech might sound like eit her a fea red subject i n school or a time to zone out a talking head. But watching a high school competitive speech is more like sitting in for parts of great moments in movies or theater. They can be entertaining, moving or even educational, and students compete in categories like great speeches, creative expression, informative, humorous and others.

They walked away with the Class 2A second-place trophy, an individual champion, a runner-up, two third-place finishes, two fourth-place finishes and a fifth. After the state tournament, co-head coach Darren Ripley said, “It was a great weekend of wrestling.�

A MAN WITH A WARM HEART

City’s glory days to soon be on display

Rolling up in style, proud to help out a friend JosÊ Perez Jr. has been a friend and important member of high school’s multicultural club

BY DAVID SCHUELLER dschueller@swpub.com

JosĂŠ Perez Jr. can be seen driving to Jordan High School in an eye-catching red Chevy Camaro. But look past the stylized window treatment bearing his last name, and you might notice that he often has a passenger.

For at least a year, Perez has been going out of his way to pick up friend and fellow high school senior Jorge Heradia.

The two also carpool to attend vocational school in Chaska. Having Perez there

as a friend has been a factor in Heradia staying on track at school while balancing school with a job as a manager at McDonald’s. “I’d pick him up from his house and get here and get him here on time,� Perez said last week at the high school.

Heradia said Perez has been there for him for years. They met in eighth grade.

Now, Perez drives up to his home and makes sure he doesn’t sleep too long after working late.

Outstanding winter photos “I prefer winter and fall, when you feel the bone structure of the landscape ...” wrote Andrew Wyeth, the 20th century American artist. Indeed, our leafless surroundings and the other changes that come with winter offer their own special allure.

So, we’re interested in seeing your winter photos. Sure, it’s been a mostly brown winter, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t some good seasonal photos to be had. We’re looking for frosted landscape photos, pictures of families building snowmen or snow forts, and images of children playing on the ice or in the (few inches of) snow. Use your imagination and show us how much winter fun there can be in the southwest metro area.

Share your best winter photo with Jordan Independent readers. Send your picture — in .jpg format, at least 3 MB in file size — to Editor Mathias Baden, editor@jordannews.com, before noon on Friday, March 16. Include your name and city of residence. We’ll run some reader photos online at jordannews.com and some in the March 22 JI print edition.

Tour money goes to bike initiatives Bicyclists, businesses team up to soon get return on donations

BY MATHIAS BADEN editor@jordannews.com

During the past seven years, the Jordan A rea Chamber of Commerce raised $19,000 through the Jordan Valley Bike Tour, and the chamber board wants to spend the money.

“We wanted to put this money to work,” chamber president Jason Hombach said in late February.

The chamber’s intention has been to put the money toward trails, racks, trees or other pedestrian-friendly, nonmotorized purchases, Hombach said prior to Tuesday’s board meeting.

Income came from participants in the bike tour, as well as business and individual sponsors. Fliers, sponsorship letters, and registration forms advertised that money would

support future bike initiatives and bike tours, both of which were pitched as good for tourism and commerce in Jordan.

The chamber board recently decided to put about $12,000 — money raised and saved in 2004-2010 — toward bicycling initiatives, and this week, the board considered adding to the pot.

On Tuesday, chamber treasurer Dave Holzer had planned to request the chamber board approve a check to the city, but the board decided not to give the money to the city.

But although preliminary indications are that the money

went to bike initiatives this week, board members have been mostly mum about exactly what happened in the meeting.

They were waiting to collectively approve of and issue a press release by e-mail.

O n T ue s d ay a f t er no on , Hombach told the Jordan Indep endent t h at he wa nted to get board members’ permission before talking to the newspaper about the decision.

Hombach e-mailed yesterday (Wednesday) to say that a press release was done and awaiting circuitous closed-meeting board approval.

More than $12,000 was expected to go toward bike initiatives, but the anticipated press release did not come out before newspaper deadlines for this week.

Attendance grew to a peak of as many as 350 bicyclists.

Annual township meetings are Tuesday

JOIN THE CHAT

Townships, through grassroot s gover n ment , of fer a unique opportunity for residents to have a direct voice in setting their tax levy and raising other issues of local concern. This oppor tunity occurs each year through participation in the annual town meeting, which will be the evening of Tuesday, March 13.

Most of the county’s townships have switched to fall elections, including those closest to Jordan.

Times and places of local meetings:  Louisville Township:

7 p.m., Marystown Parish Center (upper level), 15850 Marystown Rd, Shakopee  Sand Creek Township: 7 p.m., Minnesota Valley Electric Cooperative (north entrance), 125 Minnesota Valley Electric Dr., Jordan  Spring Lake Township: 7 p.m., Spring Lake Township Hall, 20381 Fairlawn Ave., Prior Lake  Helena Township: 8 p.m., New Prague Fire Hall, 505 Fifth Ave. N.W., New Prague  St. Lawrence Township: 7 p.m., St. Lawrence Township Hall, 7500 Old Highway 169 Blvd., Jordan  Belle Plaine Township: 7 p.m., Belle Plaine Township

Garage, 25130 Hickory Blvd., Belle Plaine During the annual meeting, town officers do not act in their official capacity. It is the electors — residents who are eligible to vote — who set the levy, not the town supervisors.

A typical agenda would include a year-end financial report, budget discussion, and reports on current or future road maintenance and road improvement projects. Township residents may also make motions on other items of interest which they would like the board to consider at a regular meeting.

“Sometimes I might fal l asleep and he might honk and wake me up,” Heradia said.

Perez has not only been a friend to one of his peers, but he has all the makings of a role model for younger students.

Driving is just one way that Perez has made a difference in not only the larger community of Jordan, but the communities within a community that can be loosely defined by ethnicity or race. Perez has been working on outreach for the high school’s multicultural club, and said it’s important to bring people of different races together. In addition, being Hispanic, Perez said he likes to back up fellow Hispanics.

It’s kind of hard, Perez said, growing up in a place with so few people of one’s race.

Sometimes, kids fall into the trap of becoming like a profile that the majority of people in a society seem to impose on a minority group. It becomes important to not be constrained by the profile. Perez said it’s important to be proud of one’s race and be able to express oneself.

All the while, the multicultural club is about being inclusive rather than setting up barriers, and Perez plays a leadership role in the club.

GLORY DAYS continued from A1

“I loved his enthusiasm,” Lieske said, as she relayed the request to the Jordan School Board. “There’s millions of pictures upstairs from years past.”

Lieske asked the board if it would like a contract and a photographic inventory of any borrowed items, but the board OK’d the idea without mirroring Lieske’s concerns about the historical items’ security.

“Those things are sitting up there collecting dust,” Board Member Joe Benko said. “Use them! People will be happy it’s displayed.”

The borrowed items will reflect the prowess of the sports, drama and music programs of the 1960s, ’70s and ’80s — the

“There’s a cer tain point where you can be proud but not too proud,” Perez said.

To that end, sometimes just spending time with someone is what it takes. Jordan Public Schools cultural liaison Bertha Lara helped link Perez and others with a mentorship program that’s planned for Jordan Middle School students who might be starting to slip at school. High school students, graduates and at least one teacher will likely be talking to middle school students and playing games in an open gym this spring.

“I have real strong beliefs that everyone should go to college, or at least be pushed to go to college,” said Perez, who is heading to boot camp this summer to join the U.S. Marine Corps, and also go to college.

Perez has worked in somewhat of a public relations role for the multicultural club, helping to sell Valentine’s Day f lowers to raise money for a club picnic that’s being planned for Lagoon Park.

He’s bringing sound equipment and helping pick a playlist for a middle school dance in early March.

Last spring, he helped the multicultural club officially get off the ground with a picnic for graduating seniors who were involved with the club.

Heradia said he met Perez when he got to Jordan in eighth grade. It was a time of extreme difficulty in his own life. He started carpooling to school because he didn’t want to ride the bus. Heradia said he was missing a lot of school early in his high school days because of personal problems.

Now, he doesn’t miss school like he once did. He gives himself a 95 percent chance of graduating high school on time.

And he called Perez a friend.

“We’re really best friends.

It’s more like a best-friend thing than a giving-me-a-ride thing,” Heradia said.

time frame in which senior citizens’ children would’ve been in school, Lieske said.

“Eventually, it does belong in the historical society,” Board Chairwoman Deb Pauly said.

Lieske said she’ll keep an inventory of the items she gives to Montag.

Oak Terrace’s Gaylord and Mankato facilities each have Glory Days hallways that are popular and tastefully curated.

Other hallways might memorialize Lagoon Park and the Mini-Met ballpark, Lieske said.

Oak Terrace Senior Living of Jordan will be located near the intersection of Aberdeen Avenue and Sunset Drive, across the street from the Jordan Public Schools campus. It is scheduled to open March 12.

During the same work session, the school board also

decided that Jordan Public Schools should have a representative on the Jordan Historical Committee.

Member Dan Elke — who Pauly said is “spearheading this committee” — requested that the district be involved.

“I don’t live in Jordan. I live in the township,” Board Member Dan Buresh said.

Several current and former dist rict employees’ na mes were raised, as Pauly said Elke wanted the schools to be supportive.

Elke is pushing for a Jordan Historical Society to be formed, helping former Mayor Ron Jabs, City Administrator Ed Shukle and others initiate a group to receive donations of historical items and curate exhibits in the soon-to-be-built Jordan library.

Be a warm heart Each year, your local newspaper highlights shining examples of volunteers who help out in the Jordan area. The Jordan Independent likes to call them “warm hearts.”

There are more than a few people who are willing volunteers around here, so it’s easy for the tradition of annual warm heart feature stories to continue.

Jose Perez Jr. is featured as one of this week’s warm hearts.

Abbie Lewis and Meranda Greeson are also featured this week as two of this year’s warm hearts. See A8.

So long! Seems it’s time to kiss winter goodbye So long, Old Man! Keep your cold breath to yourself.

Don’t bother nipping at our noses.

And despite the times when you often show your better sides, this week we’re kissing winter goodbye.

Not to jinx us or anything, but 20112012 is looking to go down as one of the wimpiest winters in Minnesota history. Old Man Winter lost a little bit of his fearsomeness lately.

One big-city sportswriter likes to repeatedly say that if we lose the Minnesota Vikings, we’ll become a cold Omaha. Well, what if we’re better than Omaha? And what if we’re not cold?

Even Omaha can handle the — what was it? — 25 inches of snow with which we hassled this year.

Heck, even Jordan Public Works is calling her quits for the season.

It’s time for sweeping and weeding, rather than salting and plowing.

“We’re already working on lawnmowers,” Public Works Director Dave Bendzick told the Jordan City Council on Monday.

In November, we were wondering if, with any luck, the city’s new chassis might arrive in time for a typical year’s big winter blast. The new truck

came to town last week, but no need to rush — it’ll be three weeks until it sees snowplow equipment.

January consisted of 11 days and 127 work hours of “a lot of nuisance snow,” Bendzick said in his monthly report. And the boys of winter have switched gears from digging out fire hydrants and other usual wintertime chores to working in the shop and water plant.

Get out the picnic basket and head for Lagoon Park. Peek at the Sand Creek waterfall soon or it’ll be too late.

Lie on the beach, watch the fountain spray, or take a dip in the Mill Pond.

Skip the kayaking. The snowmelt is over.

Hopefully, we haven’t spoken too soon.

Looking for lost Jordan-Lydia relatives Your local newspaper has received a photo of Mr. and Mrs. John Jastrum of Lydia from Duane Piere, who is searching for relatives.

He wrote in an e-mail: “My Piere family and Kettelhon, Klingberg are from the JordanLydia area. The Pieres came to Jordan in 1871 and the Klingbergs in 1867. Most of my paternal ancestors are buried either in Spirit Hill or Fish Lake.

“I inherited the family pictures and have been actively working on my Klingberg roots in the Lydia area. The picture I sent you has been identified as Jastrums and their daughter married a Klingberg. I am hoping to find a branch of this line or some family in the Jordan-Lydia area to help me with this research and also give this picture to someone who wants it.

It was a spontaneous, touching moment worthy of a huge round of applause it received.

CHATTERBOX farmer Dave Minar, 30-plus years a Scott County Fair Board member.

St. Lawrence Town Board Chairman Ted Kornder argued that Scott County already created a “one-stop shopping center” at the fairgrounds.

With several agencies operating out of one building, farmers have it easy — “being able to just walk through a door, and keep connecting,” he added.

“I t’s all right there, consolidated together,” Minar agreed.  Minar said it would behoove the county board to make a statement on behalf of the local farmers, which the board did.  Couldn’t employees be shifted from Carver and Dakota counties to Scott? farmers asked. The FSA employs four people at its Carver County location, as well as five in Dakota County.  Why doesn’t government reduce the amount of required paperwork? they asked.  “It’s just creating jobs,” Sand Creek Township farmer Rick Stocker said. “Probably one-third or half of staff is doing unnecessary paperwork.”  Among the comments that the state FSA forwarded to the secretary of the USDA is the recommendation of Scott County farmers that the local FSA office stay open.

Kornder suggested that farmers must “bombard Washington” with their comments.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

Good fiscal management and reform yields results To the editor: The budget we set last year continues to surpass initial projections.

Our February economic forecast shows the state of Minnesota’s budget has come a long way in a short amount of time. We have erased the $6.1 billion shortfall from last year and can report a $1.2 billion surplus.

The $1.2 billion surplus is a result of decreased spending and a slight increase in revenues which results in a $6.3 billion turn for the better in less than a year.

This is outstanding news, and it is rewarding to see the difficult decisions we made last year start to take root and continue to pay dividends. The economy and state budget are looking better than anticipated due to our commitment to fiscal restraint and our refusal to raise taxes.

Another bit of outstanding news from this economic forecast is at least $ 318 million of our surplus funds will go toward accelerating the payment of shifted K-12 education funds. The Constitution mandated prior funds be dedicated to replenishing our state’s reserves and cash-f low accounts, and we can turn

our attention to addressing the shifts that have been in effect since 2009.

Small-business owners gain confidence when there is economic and regulatory certainty. We have focused our reform efforts on providing the freedom and flexibility our business community needs to build the Minnesota economy. The result is an unemployment rate of 5.7 percent that is significantly better than the nation’s 8.5 percent average and is falling faster than most states.

We have experienced stronger-than-expected revenue growth in Minnesota since our new budget went into place, including $93 million in added revenue since November. This type of growth may have never happened if we had raised taxes on hardworking Minnesotans by billions of dollars as some proposed.

The decisions we make are not always easy, but they are working as evidenced in these latest budget numbers. Our state is in better fiscal position today than it has been for a number of years and that is something we can all celebrate.

Pushing to challenge middle-school learners Recently, we have been researching the idea of providing Jordan Middle School students with a curriculum that allows more opportunities and exploration throughout the year.

Currently, students have the ability to choose only between band, choir and study hall. All the other classes that we offer are mandatory throughout their four years here.

Many students will select a study hall every day for an hour, or every other day.

Study halls are a good thing if there is homework, and if the student is committed to getting their work done at school.

Often, I see the study hall as a time that could be used better if we had a few more student choices.

Creating these choices requires us to find or hire additional staff for these positions.

As I have researched other schools and what are their offerings, I have found that many schools offer more electives than just music. Some may offer a foreign language, speech and drama, school newspaper, additional foods class, arts and crafts, and service learning.

I am bringing this to the public’s attention because I want you to know the direction we want for our youth. It is important in the development of a 10to 14-year-old to have different things to explore so that they can enjoy school while learning different things in which they could be interested.

This by no means is a done deal but something the administration, Jordan School Board and I are looking at for the future. In the meantime, I will keep all of you updated on any or all of the changes that may or may not occur.

HONORS COURSES Along with some electives, it is my intention to include

Lance

CHAMBERS DISTRICT 717 SPOTLIGHT

in the 2012-2013 school year a section of honors math and a section of honors language arts and reading in all grade levels. These classes will be filled if students meet the set criteria as stated by the honors curriculum committee. This information will be given to you by April of this year.

MONTHLY NEWSLETTER Hopefully, most of the parents who have children in the middle school received my first middle school newsletter last week.

My plan is to send a new one out during the second week of each month. The purpose of this newsletter is to keep all parents and students more updated on upcoming events, things happening around the middle school and district, and such things as the following: The Jordan Middle School Parent Teacher Organization (PTO) could really use your help!

How school social work can help students learn Social work is a profession that applies science for the purpose of helping people.

T he S t a nd a r d s for t he Classification of Social Work P rac tic e ( Si lver Spri ngs, MD: National Association of Social Workers, 1982, pages 17-18) identifies 12 essential skills.

These skills include the ability to:  listen and understand purpose;  elicit information and assemble relevant facts for a social history;  assess and report;  create and maintain helping relationships;  observe and interpret behavior and use knowledge of personality theory and diagnostic methods;  engage clients in efforts to resolve their own problems and gain trust;  discuss sensitive emotional subjects in a supportive manner;  create innovative solutions to address clients’ needs;  know when to terminate a therapeutic relationship;  conduct or interpret professional research;  mediate and negotiate between conflicting parties;  provide organizational liaison services;  and interpret and communicate social needs to funding sources, the public, and government representatives.

School social work is a specialty in social work with a focus on helping students become successful learners.

The school social worker must have good basic social work skills and have additional knowledge related to education and special education.

They need the ability to understand barriers to student learning, like disabilities and poverty, but also need to be able to identify and build upon a student’s strengths.

They serve students by working from a system perspective in order to coord i n at e w it h t he st udent , parents, teachers and other professionals.

Dan

DIERFELDT FOCUS ON SPECIAL EDUCATION

“School social work is a specialty in social work with a focus on helping students become successful learners.”

Knowledge of outside resources available to students and fami lies in need and knowledge of how to access those resources are both essential, as well.

All school social workers in Minnesota must have a valid license through the Minnesota Board of Social Work. Most have a master of social work degree, and a large number have additional clinical training in mental health.

Social work is grounded in a philosophy of helping others improve their well-being while always maintaining the ethical standards of the profession.

They can be found working from preschool through postsecondary settings. While the practice of school social work can look a little different, depending upon the type of school or an individual’s practice style, its purpose is always to support the larger mission of education.

ourschools IDEA FACTORY: A VISION FOR SCHOOLS JORDAN ELEMENTARY SCHOOL

Viewing the big picture Board questions principals about goals for buildings

BY MATHIAS BADEN editor@jordannews.com

Casual but important talks during a Jordan School Board retreat early this year left board members yearning for principa ls’ knowledge and opinions.

“We had more questions than answers,” Chairwoman Deb Pauly said. “Just going to chat and pick their brain.”

So late last month, after asking for written feedback, t he b oa r d i nv it e d e ach of Jordan Public Schools’ three principals to talk about the future of their programs and how one principal’s vision for one building can tie into two other principals’ visions for their buildings, as well as the school board’s vision for the district.

Board Member Joe Benko asked each of the principals about the big picture. Where does the principal foresee his or her school heading in the next five years?

Stacy DeCorsey talked about Jordan Elementary School, Lance Chambers spoke up for Jordan Middle School, and Barbara McNulty detailed plans for Jordan High School.

While Board Chairwoman Deb Pauly’s line of questioning veered awfully close to a suggestion for a bold, new direction, each principal said they wanted some past budget cuts restored, specifically in the areas of social work, test coordination, and counseling.

They also collectively pushed for protection of federally but temporarily funded programs that have met success.

SOCIAL WORK DeCorsey requested fulltime social work and counseling in the elementary school.

Some of her time is spent listening to the concerns of children, and the elementary school social worker is swamped, she said.

“I don’t think we’re meeting the social-emotional needs of the kids,” she said.

Chambers said he wants a full-time social worker, but he can wait for a couple more years.

T he dist rict has coordinated the schedules of partti me socia l workers Mol ly Kalow and Cayla Rother so that one of them is available at all times.

“We had more questions than answers. Just going to chat and pick their brain.”

Deb Pauly Jordan School Board chairwoman

UPPING THE ANTE The school board and principals talked about creating more rigorous programs for gi f ted students, as wel l as ways to assist students who fall behind.

“You know how many dollars you’re losing,” Pauly said of high achievers who leave the Jordan district, taking external funding with to other districts.

W hile the principals expect the high school’s College in the Schools (CIS) and the middle school’s honor courses a nd electives to add up to positive things, the federally funded Response to Intervention (RTI) has proven to work for those who have catching up to do.

“You just want to have continued funding,” Board Member Caroline Carritt said at one point during Chambers’ presentation.

MULTIPLE CULTURES All three principals were supportive of Bertha Lara, multicultural and outreach services coordinator. DeCorsey gave out the position’s job description, including:  provide support for students and parents by providing information about the Jordan school system from preschool opportunities through high school career planning;  provide an understanding for staff and the school community around culture and student and family needs;  connect with parents and encourage parent involvement in their child’s education through home visits and scheduled school functions;  serve as an interpreter for school events and translator for school communications;  and maintain a log of work and activities conducted with students and parents.

“There is a lot more,” DeCorsey said.

“I don’t know how she does it in half-time.”

Funded by federal stimulus money, the position would need to be locally funded if it is to exist next year.

“That’s one we have to make a decision about,” Pauly said.

STEM, OR STEAM? Pauly made no effort to hide her affections for the idea of a Science, Technolog y, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) — or STEAM, if you add in the arts — program, but the principals showed mixed feelings.

“You have to have buy-in, or STEM isn’t going to work,” DeCorsey said.

Teachers and parents would need to agree with the schoolwithin-a-school concept for STEM to eventually be incorporated into what the elementary school is doing, DeCorsey added.

DeCorsey suggested a committee be formed on the subject.

“We need to check it out,” DeCorsey said. “I think science and technology is where we’re going to be held accountable in the future.”

District boosters might get excited about STEAM, given the well-developed art and music programs at Jordan Public Schools, Pauly said.

“Ab s olut ely,” D e C or s ey agreed.

But the other two principals, while generally supportive, expressed cautions.

STEM is a “huge commitment,” Chambers said. “You need buy-in for the board.”

A “fully committed” board — as in, if there are no resources for it, then studying it is a waste of time — is necessary, Chambers said.

Be careful, McNulty said.

“A r e we bi g enou g h to do that?”

The STEM program leads to engineering courses, or even a fun mix of physics and engineering.

“I think we should study it,” McNulty said.

DeCorsey asks for more gifted programming

BY MATHIAS BADEN editor@jordannews.com

Special education services are mandated by other governments to help get some children up to speed in their studies, but sometimes the requirements push a school toward deemphasizing programs for gifted students.

“We just have a little bit Stacy of a gap,” Jordan ElemenDeCorsey tary School Principal Stacy DeCorsey recently told the Jordan School Board.

In the future, the elementary school should increase its focus on science and technology.

“The technology world is just f lying,” DeCorsey said. “We have to keep up.”

DeCorsey counts her school’s Facebook page as a communication success.

But in other areas the district appears to be lagging behind.

A Belle Plaine elementary school has three iPad labs, an example DeCorsey would like to see her school follow. One such lab would be especially useful when computer labs are full of test takers for long periods of time.

The principal asked for full-time gifted and talented programming at the elementary school.

DeCorsey also recommended:  one additional classroom teacher in first grade;  one additional classroom teacher to support third and fourth grades;

 one additional part-time secretary for the office;  continued support for a part-time cultural liaison;  continued support for Response to Intervention (RTI) math paraprofessionals or a licensed teacher;  continued support for a part-time RTI reading paraprofessional;  sixth-period pay for art, music and physical education teachers;  additional English-language learners (ELL) teaching time;  and east wing duct cleaning at the elementary school.

School Board Chairwoman Deb Pauly prompted DeCorsey to prioritize.

Pauly mentioned a past conversation she had with the principal about the potential for offering Spanish immersion.

“You’d have to pick one or the other,” DeCorsey said.

Merely adding a second language elective might not be the best option, she said. “I just don’t know how we could fit it into the day.

Give me another hour.”

The administrative team looked at information parents gave the district when making the decision to open enroll into a district besides Jordan and found that Early Childhood Family Education (ECFE), allday kindergarten and afterschool programs make a big difference.

DeCorsey credits the federally but also temporarily funded RTI program with getting the school off of the state’s did-not-makeadequate-yearly-progress list, and said: “People come to us because of our special ed programs.”

JORDAN MIDDLE SCHOOL

Chambers wants ‘chances for kids to explore’

BY MATHIAS BADEN editor@jordannews.com

Four hundred Jordan Midd le School students have study hall on their class schedules. Two hundred of them sit in study hall for a full hour each day.

“It’s just a holding pen,” Jordan Middle School Principal Lance Chambers recently said in front of the Jordan School Board.

Lance He’s been planning for Chambers the elimination of study hall. Instead, he wants his school to offer more “chances for kids to explore,” he said.

For electives, the middle school allows band or choir — “that’s it,” he said. Family and consumer sciences (FACS) is offered in seventh grade, and industrial arts in eighth.

Exploratory classes in art and technology, as well as more than one year of industrial arts and FACS, would bring Jordan Middle School up to par with many other middle schools in the area.

Chambers said he would also like to see expanded language arts and foreign languages.

In a report to the board, he suggested adding courses in speech, drama and the like.

“This is a wish list,” he reminded the board. “You can’t have everything.”

Having one or two additional electives at each grade level would help the students.

“Seventh and eighth (grades) are just bored,” Chambers said.

Honors classes will start, with one of five sections of a given subject being an honors class.

“I think we can do that with no cost,” Chambers said.

He would like to see more music lessons being taught, so he requested a part-time music teacher.

“We have purchased some guitars in the past, and they’re just sitting there,” Chambers said. “We could just explore music.”

Partly fueled by pressure to meet state standards, he’s also thinking about doubling the daily requirements for math.

The school has somewhat of a math honors program, but Chambers wants to “up the ante,” he said.

Response to Intervention (RTI) is being touted as largely effective in the middle school, yet the program’s funding runs out this summer.

Board Member Caroline Carritt put the middle school’s requests into perspective, saying: “Remediation is a high-ticket item, but an honors program is also a high-ticket item.”

“Remediation is something that we’ve done, and I think we’ve done it really well,” Chambers said.

An honors program, he said, is “new to me. I think it’s something that the district is lacking.”

All good school districts have both remediation and honors programs, Chambers said.

Next, Chambers would like to improve language arts and reading programs. These subjects would benefit from block scheduling, which allows 90- to 100-minute class periods.

For now, he prefers to wait on social studies and science honors classes, he said.

“Our goal in the middle school is to give our students as many opportunities to explore as we can,” Chambers wrote. “Right now, we are very limited to what we can offer our students.”

Southwest NEWSPAPERS

BY MATHIAS BADEN editor@jordannews.com

Barbara McNulty envisions a Jordan school district that is growing in population and programs, and will keep doing so.

Jordan is a nice place to live, but it goes unappreciated at times, the Jordan High School principal recently told the Jordan Barbara School Board.

McNulty “I think this is Lake Wobegon and you people just don’t know it,” McNulty said.

As the district grows in student population, the teachers are eager to do anything asked of them — even share classrooms, despite the scenario being less than ideal.

With more than 500 students at the high school, support is necessary in the area of test coordination, curriculum direction, and counseling, McNulty said. Jordan Public Schools shares a curriculum director with the Belle Plaine school district.

“Additional counseling help would help serve students who are behind, and additional help with testing would help the teachers analyze and use student data and also monitor testing,” she wrote in a report to the board.

McNulty pointed out that testing is a huge issue at the high school, and she also asked for support for remedial needs of students, particularly in math.

Juniors and seniors can meet state math standards by merely taking a test three

times, regardless of results.

But several of this and next year’s freshmen “need additional support,” McNulty wrote. By the time this and next year’s freshmen become seniors, they will need to pass the state tests before graduation.

Forty freshmen and 55 eighth-graders did not meet or partially met standards after their most recent Minnesota Comprehensive Assessment-II tests, she said.

McNulty suggested a “sidecar thing” that would, in lieu of other elective classes, reinforce MCA math concepts for students who need to boost their scores.

She asked the district to buy so-called clicker technology that would poll math students about the concepts they are learning, like a pop quiz. The teachers would immediately know if their lessons are sinking in, or if the concepts need to be re-taught.

Yes, they’ll be teaching to the tests, McNulty said. “I’m going to assume the state developed a test that tests skills that are good to learn.”

She also asked the board for:  additional technology;  more honors-level freshman and sophomore courses “to extend the opportunity students have at the middle school;”  reinstatement of the bus to the CarverScott Educational Cooperative for seniors, in an effort to open up the vocational program to families with low incomes;  support for College in the Schools (CIS) classes, allowing students to receive college credits for taking advanced courses from their certified high school teachers rather than postsecondary education option (PSEO).

If you go

Two Jordan girls are about to take a risk, in order to make a difference a continent away.

Abbie Lewis and Meranda Greeson, both 15, embark on their f irst chu rch mission trip next week. They’ll spend March 16-23 in rural Chetumal, Mexico, doing construction work.

“It’s going to be hard work,” said Lewis, who expects to mix cement under the hot sun.

This will be the first time on an airplane and out of the country for Greeson. She’s heard about “bad stuff” that has happened in Mexico, aside from the usual out-of-country differences in money and housing situations.

“It’s kind of scary but exciting at the same time,” she said.

“The furthest I’ve been from Minnesota is Oklahoma.”

Greeson is a little nervous, while Lewis is not.

Neither of them are construction workers, but they appear confident they can do the work that is asked of them.

Lewis has helped build a shed before — does that count?

They’ll do their best on the flat roofs of Mexico.

In a little more than a week, the duo will take up their hammocks and nets and sleep outside in a Mayan village, where building houses and roofing go hand in hand with teaching Bible camp and completing various chores and services for evangelical Christian churches that partner with Faith Community.

The girls don’t speak any Spanish.

They will be working with “not super poor people” who do need help, in an area of decreasing crime rate, Lewis said.

A few years ago, Lewis and her family went to Ecuador to visit relatives. Across the street from Lewis’ cousins’ house was a soup kitchen where the family helped out.

There, “they would stare in your eyes because they’re not used to seeing blue or green eyes,” Lewis said.

Greeson expects a few more awkward moments because she isn’t familiar with a Mexican culture that is “way different than ours,” she said.

“I’m excited to see how different it is,” Lewis said.

Greeson said climate change, too, will take an adjustment.

Lewis is looking forward to the heat, “but I’ll probably get sick of it on like the third day, and then I’ll get burnt and be ready to leave,” she said.

A fund-raiser for the Mexico trip is scheduled for this weekend.

Time: 3-7 p.m. Thursday, March 8; 10 a.m.-7 p.m.

Friday, March 9; 8 a.m.2 p.m. Saturday, March 10 Location: 313 First St., Jordan Info: wepay.com/donations/ mexico-fund PHOTOS BY MATHIAS BADEN / REPRINTS AT PHOTOS.JORDANNEWS.COM

“I’m probably going to come back a lot more thankful,” Lewis said, referring to how fortunate Americans are.

CALLED For each girl, a call to service came via phone.

Lewis’ sister, Serena Nourse, who lives in Oakdale and attends church in Hudson, Wis., called Lewis. Faith Community Church was putting together its 14th mission trip to Mexico, and Nourse wanted to invite her sister to join in.

For the church’s 10th year, the trip takes a group to an area near the capital city of the Quintana Roo, in the southern Yucatan Peninsula, near northern Belize. Nourse and her husband, Nathan, are going, and Lewis hopes that God will lead her brother Nate to come, as well.

Greeson was f lat-out told she was going to Mexico and to start fund raising. Lewis, who called Greeson, admits she’s a little bossy.

“That’s what best friends are like,” Greeson said, having readily accepted the demand.

WE’RE A TEAM Lewis and “my best friend for, like, ever” regularly volunteer at Feed My Starving Children, Lewis said.

When they decide to go volunteer, Lewis and Greeson post their intentions on Facebook and quickly try to recruit a winning team.

At FMSC, they participate in competitions to see who can bag the most meals.

“We’re pretty fast,” Greeson said.

“We’re pretty loud,” Lewis said.

In about 10 times volunteering at FMSC, they’ve taken as few as four people and as many as 20.

Lewis teaches Sunday preschool at her church, Bethany Church in Bloomington.

Two summers ago, she and Greeson went to the International House of Prayer in Kansas City, where they evangelized.

The proceeds from a sale this weekend will go to a mission trip for which Meranda Greeson (left) and Abbie Lewis are volunteering.

Be a warm heart Each year, your local newspaper highlights shining examples of volunteers who help out in the Jordan area. The Jordan Independent likes to call them “warm hearts.”

There are more than a few people who are willing volunteers around here, so it’s easy for the tradition of annual warm heart feature stories to continue.

Abbie Lewis and Meranda Greeson are featured as two of this week’s warm hearts.

Jose Perez Jr. is also featured this week as one of this year’s warm hearts. See A1.

“We saved a lot of people, too,” Greeson said.

In seperate groups, Greeson and Lewis walked the city, inviting homeless people to the King’s Banquet.

“It was a five-star meal — a really good meal for free,” Greeson said.

Together, they a handful of experiences with evangelism.

They are experienced volunteers, but they don’t usually choose construction work as their mode of service.

“I can plan a garage sale, but she can, like, fix a car,” Lewis said.

“I don’t mind hard work,” Greeson said.

“We’re like a genius mind, together,” Lewis said.

RAISING MONEY This week is crunch time for the two travelers. Their website says they have $320 of the $2,000 they need for the trip.

Lewis is in the second year of an annual sale for charity. Last year, the money went to FMSC. This year, it’s going to Mexico.

“I’m going to need the extra help,” she said. “It’s not like I have a lot of money to give.”

Craft sales are Abbie Lewis’ specialty. This year, Lewis (right) is taking her best friend, Meranda Greeson, on a mission trip to Mexico.

She has sent out support letters and held craft sales at the Church of the Living Water in Jordan and at Bethany — she makes so-called record bowls and more.

Donating to an organization like FMSC is a good practice, she said, because it has already partnered with other organizations to get the most bang for a buck.

“It made a big difference, just the little that people do give,” Lewis said.

The girls know that every little donation or small volunteer gesture helps out a good cause.

Greeson helps her neighbor — gardening, planting, weeding, cutting and mowing.

Lewis sponsors a child from Uganda.

And she signs online petitions at change.org. “It’s only one signature out of like 150,000,” she said, but she’s encouraged by a section of the website that shows which petitions work.

Next, Lewis hopes to go to Honduras in June.

“As soon as I get back, I’ve got to start fund-raising again.”

PANTHERS WRESTLING

Kroells defends title; team places 2nd Scott West repeats as runner up to Simley

Heavyweight becomes only third Scott West wrestler to win two titles

BY TODD ABELN tabeln@swpub.com

BY TODD ABELN tabeln@swpub.com

Scott West senior Michael Kroells moved up to heavyweight for the state tournament, looking for a challenge.

He got the challenge he sought, but he overcame the effort from two-time defending state champ Austin Goergen of Caledonia.

Kroells defeated Goergen, the No. 3-rated heavyweight in the country, 8-3 in the championship bout of the heavyweight division in Class 2A to become a two-time champion himself.

“That guy gave me a match,” Kroells said after the match. “It feels pretty good. I set a goal for myself and ended up following through with it.”

Kroells built a 6-0 lead and then held off Goergen’s attempt to turn him in the final minute to win the title.

In first period, Kroells used a double leg shot to take down Goergen for the first two points of the match. He rode him for the final minute of the period.

“He was up for a low single, and I saw an opportunity and took it,” Kroells said.

Kroells then picked the down position to start the second and quickly reversed Goergen for a 4-0 lead.

He kept Goergen on the mat for the rest of the period but was unable to turn him for any more points.

“He’s good on the bottom,” Kroells said. “I was having a hard time riding him, and that wore me out.”

Kroells earned two more points with a takedown to start the third, and it looked like he was going to cruise to the title.

All that hard work to keep Goergen down had taken its toll on Kroells, and Goergen earned the first reversal against Kroells all season with about a minute left in the match to cut the lead to 6-2.

Goergen almost turned Kroells a few times in the final minute, but each time, Kroells was able to fight him off. Kroells was called for two stalling calls that gave Goergen another point.

“He could try to turn me all he wants, but I knew I wasn’t going over,” Kroells said.

With the score 6-3, Kroells clinched the title with a reversal in the final seconds to win 8-3.

“He was the toughest guy I’ve wrestled this year,” Kroells said of Goergen.

Kroells reached the championship bout by pinning Totino-Grace’s Richie Donovan and Princeton’s Josh Linder in the first two rounds.

In the semifinals, he earned an 8-0 win against Simley’s Matt Kadrlik.

Kroells joins Nick Slack as a two-time state champion from Scott West. Pat McNamara is the Panthers’ only three-time champion.

Kroells finishes the season with a 48-0 record and a career record of 181-28. His seven wins at the state tournament helped him overtake Slack’s record of 176 career wins.

SO CLOSE Scott West’s 120-pounder, Luke Betchwars, lost in his attempt to become a state champion when he fell 10-6 to Rockford’s Ty Griffin.

“I don’t even really know what to say,” Betchwars said after the match. “I thought I would be able to take him down and ride him, but that didn’t happen.”

Griffin scored the first takedown, but Betchwars quickly reversed him to tie the match at 2-2.

In the second period, Griffin scored a critical takedown and two near-fall points to pull away from Betchwars and grab a 6-2 lead.

“He probably tried to fight that off a little too long,” co-head coach Darren Ripley said of Betchwars.

Betchwars tried to chase Griffin down, but Griffin’s defense was too good.

“The kid from Rockford had some length, and Luke had trouble adjusting to that length and couldn’t get anything going on his feet,” Ripley said.

Scott West had two third-place finishes, by brothers Andrew and Gabe Fogarty.

Gabe Fogarty lost a battle of top-ranked wrestlers at 145 pounds in the semifinals to get denied a chance at a state championship.

Fogarty, ranked No. 2, lost 4-2 to No. 1-ranked Jake Short of Simley in overtime.

In overtime, Short got inside on Fogarty and took him down to the mat and Fogarty tried to fight it off. The ref gave the two points anyway and the win went to Short, who went on to become a three-time state champion.

“I’m not sure Short had secured control of that takedown to be awarded two points,” Ripley said.

Fogarty bounced back to defeat Dustin Ellsworth of St. Paul Harding 9-0 for third place.

Gabe’s younger brother, Andrew Fogarty, topped Simley’s Mack Short 8-3 to finish third at 138 pounds.

Finishing fourth for the Panthers were Zach Siegle at 113 pounds and Nick Dvorak at 180 pounds.

Siegle lost to Simley’s Kyle Gliva 5-4 in the second round but battled back to win twice in the wrestlebacks before losing to Foley’s Tristan Manderfield in the third-place match.

In the match against Gliva, it appeared Siegle had earned some near-fall points in the third period to grab a 5-3 lead, but then Gliva slipped away before the ref awarded the two points.

“He really got jobbed in this match and really deserved to have the opportunity to win this match,” Ripley said.

Dvorak opened the tournament the worst possible way. He got pinned in 33 seconds by Simley’s Micah Barnes.

He bounced back to win twice in the wrestlebacks to reach the third-place match. He lost that match 6-0 to Garrett Miller of Plainview-ElginMillville to finish in fourth.

Senior Charlie Pesch finished fifth at 152 pounds.

David Flynn and Jake DeWeese qualified for state but did not place.

In what turned out to be the critical move of the match, Luke Betchwars can’t stop Ty Griffi n from taking him down in the second period.

For the second straight year, Simley High School in Inver Grove Heights stood in Scott West’s way to a state championship.

And for the second straight year, Scott West was unable to pull off the upset of the nationally ranked Spartans.

The Panthers lost the Class 2A state wrestling championship 36 -22 last Thursday at the Xcel Energy Center in St. Paul to finish second again. Last year, Simley defeated Scott West 39-16.

“We wrestled hard,” co-head coach Darren Ripley said. “We wrestled them a lot better and a lot harder than last year.

“Last year, they dictated the action.

This year was much better. We didn’t let them quite dictate as much of the action. Last year, they overwhelmed us, and that wasn’t the case this year.”

F reshman David F ly nn got the Panthers off to a flying start, earning an 11-1 major decision against Cortez Arredondo to give Scott West a 4-0 lead.

After that, Simley won seven straight matches to take a 24-3 lead.

At 113 pounds, Zach Siegle was tied with No. 1-rated Kyle Gliva at 2-2 going into the third period, but Gliva earned a reversal and back points to earn a 7-3 win.

Simley kept sending out No. 1-rated wrestlers, and although the Panthers fought hard and kept most matches close, Simley was just too good in the championship match.

After Siegle lost at 113 pounds, Luke Betchwars lost 8-4 to No. 1-rated Pedro DeLao to give the Spartans a 6-4 lead.

At 125, No. 1-rated Juan Torres earned a technical fall against Phillip Dvorak. Simley followed up with an 8-2 win at 132 and a 3-1 win at 138. That gave the Spartans a 16-4 lead.

Another No. 1-rated wrestler came to the mat at 145 pounds for Simley in Jake Short. He defeated Derek Dahlke 14-4.

In the matchup of the night, No. 1 Nick Wanzek defeated No. 2 Gabe Fogarty 2-0.

Charlie Pesch finally broke the Simley win streak, defeating Logan Busch 3-0 at 160 pounds to cut the Simley lead to 24-7.

Simley’s final No. 1-rated wrestler, Micah Barnes, pinned Patrick Dvorak at 43 seconds to push the lead to 30-7.

Cody Hazelett, who finished as runner-up at 195 pounds, pinned Jake DeWeese at 5:20 for Simley’s final win of the match.

Scott West finished the match with two pins.

Mike Riker pinned Jack Ryan at 1:20, and Michael Kroells pinned Matt Kadrlik at 4:39 to cut the Spartans win to 36-22.

“It was a great last match for Mike (Riker) in his career,” Ripley said. “Not many wrestlers can say that they beat a Simley Spartan in their last match, and even fewer can say that they pinned one.”

GETTING THERE Scott West came into the state tournament as the No. 2-rated team in Class 2A and earned the No. 2 seed for the tournament.

The reward for the seed was facing off against a 12-12 Monticello team in the first round.

The Panthers easily defeated Monticello 53-9 to advance to the second round.

Getting pin falls for Scott West were Flynn, Siegle, Gabe Fogarty, Pesch, Nick Dvorak and Kroells. Others getting wins was Betchwars, Zilverberg, Andrew Fogarty, DeWeese and Riker.

The win sent them into the semifinals against No. 3-rated Foley Falcons.

“The Foley Falcons have a great wrestling program, and we knew that it was going to be a fight from start to finish,” Ripley said.

Scott West jumped out to a big lead, only to see Foley battle back and cut the lead to four with one match left.

Kroells quickly ended the suspense, pinning Cameron Svihla to give Scott West a 31-21 victory and send them into the championship match.

Foley jumped out to a 3-0 lead when Tyler Funk topped Flynn 7-1.

The Panthers responded by winning the next four matches.

Siegle topped No. 2-rated Tristan Manderfeld 5-2, followed by by Betchwars’ 6-5 win, Zilverberg’s 21-5 technical fall and Phillip Dvorak’s 6-0 win.

The Panthers took a 14-3 lead.

Foley won at 138 and 152, but Gabe Fogarty earned a technical fall at 145.

After those three matches, it was 19-9.

Patrick Dvorak won 7-2 at 160 for a 23-9 lead.

Foley won three of the next four matches to cut the lead to 26-21, but that’s when Kroells closed the door.

HUBMEN BASKETBALL

Watertown ends Jordan’s season Running into the playoffs Norwood-Young America is first hurdle

No. 4-ranked team upends Jags in playoff run

BY TODD ABELN tabeln@swpub.com

BY TODD ABELN tabeln@swpub.com

At the start of the season, the Jordan girls basketball team and head coach Greg Dietel knew they had a daunting task ahead of them when the playoffs started.

That’s because the section that Jordan was placed in — Class 2A, Section 5 — was considered the toughest in the state.

As the season went along, that proved to be true. The section features No. 1-rated Providence Academy, No. 4-rated Watertown-Mayer and Jordan, which won 22 games and was rated at No. 8.

With three of the top 10 teams in the state in one section, two teams were going to be disappointed earlier than they had hoped.

That happened to the Jaguars on Saturday night at Howard LakeWaverly-Winsted Middle School, where they lost in the south subsection semifinals to Watertown-Mayer 65-55. “Watertown is a very good team, and we played them toe to toe,� head coach Greg Dietel said. “There’s a reason they are ranked No. 4 in the state.�

At the start of the game, Jordan struggled to score — a problem that would haunt them all game long — allowing the Royals to jump to an early lead, 14-4.

The Jaguars settled down and battled back to cut the lead to 23-21 at halftime. Makayla Lambrecht three sparked the Jaguars’ 17-7 run to end the half. “We didn’t make many shots early in the game and had to climb an uphill battle,� Dietel said.

Despite struggling offensively, Jordan did not let that affect them on the defensive end. They made the Royals and the state’s leading scorer, Marissa Janning, work for everything they got. “I was really excited about our game plan, and we did a pretty good job of executing it,� Dietel said.

Janning scored 15 of Watertown’s 23 points in the first half, but she had to work hard for those points. She took 20 shots in the first half.

In the second half, the teams exchanged baskets until the Jaguars

Elle Case scored eight points for the Jaguars against WatertownMayer and was named to the all-subsection team. were able to tie it at 43-43 late in the game.

After that, the shots stopped falling for Jordan and Watertown pulled away.

With the score tied at 43-43, the Royals’ Kate Theisen scored six straight points to push the lead to 49-43.

Watertown finished the game on a 22-12 run to advance to the subsection final. “We had some breakdowns in the second half,� Dietel said. “Other than that, I thought we were really good for most of the game.�

Janning led all scorers with 31 points, but she needed 32 shots to get those points.

A s for t he Jag u a rs, M addy Dean scored 15 to lead the team.

Lanmbrecht scored 10, while Kelsey Chambers, Elle Case and Alex Hancock each scored eight. Sam Hentges added four points, and Hallie Anderson scored two. “Our shots just didn’t fall, and that happens sometimes,� Dietel said. “Unfortunatly, it had to happen in this game.�

PLAYOFF WIN Jordan started the playoffs out by defeating Brooklyn Center 79-36 last Thursday. “We really did a nice job of getting out in transition,� Dietel said. “Defensively in the first half, we were outstanding.�

The Jaguars outscored Brooklyn Center 53-20 in the first half and cruised from there.

Jordan forced 28 turnovers in the win.

GREAT SEASON The loss to Watertown ended a great season for Jordan. The team finished with a 22-4 record and a Minnesota River Conference championship. “We need to be very proud of the season we had,� Dietel said. “It ended earlier than we wanted, but it was a great season. “All the credit goes to the kids.

They put in the work and played unselfish basketball all season long.�

Dean, Chambers and Case were named to the Class 2A, Section 5 South Subsection team of the year.

SPORTS BRIEF

Chambers named to all-academic team Jordan graduate Brittany Chambers was named to the Academic All-Big 12 first team.

It is the second honor for Chambers, who is majoring in life sci-

ences/pre-med.

Nominated by each institution’s director of student-athlete support services and the media relations offices, the women’s basketball academic all-league team consisted of 27 first-team members combined with 13 on the second team.

First-team members consist of

those who have maintained 3.20 or better grade-point averages, and the second team includes those who have a 3.00 to 3.19 GPAs. To qualify, each student-athlete must maintain a 3.00 GPA or higher either cumulative or the two previous semesters and must have participated in 60 percent of her team’s scheduled contests.

Going into their final game of the season, the Jordan boys basketball players knew their opponent liked to play at a fast pace.

They didn’t know if they would try to run with Prairie Seeds Academy or try to slow them down.

After scouting a Prairie Seeds Academy game, head coach Matt Urbanek decided to run with them.

That decision didn’t produce the win the Hubmen or Urbanek had hoped for but it provided a fun, exciting game that went right down to the wire.

Jordan lost its final regular season game 85-78 to Prairie Seeds last Friday to finish the season with a 13-12 record. “We decided to run with them and open up our offense instead of slowing it down, and our players responded well,� Urbanek said. “This was an exciting high school basketball game.�

Prairie Seed took a 37-34 lead into halftime but pulled away midway through the second half to win by seven.

The second-half run by Prairie Seeds pushed their lead to 10 points with eight minutes. “We responded with a nice run of our own in the last couple of minutes of the game to make it close but we just ran out of time,� Urbanek said. “Even though we lost the game, I was proud of how our team responded against a very good opponent. I was especiallly proud of our seniors on senior night. They played very well and gave everything they had.�

One special moment came near the end of the game when senior Ethan Kelly knocked down a threepointer for the Hubmen with 10 seconds left. “The Jordan players and fans absolutely love Ethan, and it was a great shot by a senior player at the end of senior night,� Urbanek said.

Jake Anderson led the Hubmen in scoring with 22 points. He also g rabbed seven rebou nds. Nate Beckman finished with 17 points and 11 rebounds. Andy Schrader had a great all-around game, finishing with seven points and eight assists.

Readers chime in on the childhood reads that excited them

W

hat was your favorite childhood book? Your children’s favorite books?

Is there a childhood book character you simply can’t get out of your head, decades later?

These are the questions we posed to our newspaper and website readers, and to readers of our magazine sister, Savvy.mn.

Folks responded, and you’ll likely fi nd the responses — printed here — jogging your own memories of childhood reads.

To all of the readers who responded, we say, “Thanks.”

‘Goodnight Moon’ “Alex, what’s your favorite kids’ book?” I asked my 8-year-old son.

Without hesitation, he smi led, “Goodnight M o o n .”

We hadn’t r e ad t h at i n yea rs.

To the bookc ase of laden, warped shelves, we went in search of Margaret Wise Brown’s classic bedtime story.

I found the well-loved board book, which had been taped and retaped, but still nearly came apart in my hands. “In the great green room,” I began, Alex leaning on my shoulder.

I realized that Alex could now read.

We could read this book together.

And so we did, laughing at the word mush and saying goodnight to

nobody, finding the little mouse on each colored page and whispering as the lights dimmed in the little bunny’s room. Reading Goodnight Moon had been an essential part of our bedtime routine when Alex and his younger sister, Amy, were toddlers. To rediscover its magic now confirms it as the best children’s book I’ve ever read.

‘Anne of Green Gables’ As a tomboy growing up in rural Minnesota, I loved books that had strong female characters.

“Anne of Green Gables” by Lucy Montgomery was one of my favorites. An orphan, Anne Shirley was adopted by an older, unmarried brother and sister, Matthew and Marilla Cuthbert, who had asked for a boy to help them on the farm. Instead, they got Anne, a spirited, melodramatic redhead who quickly charms the quiet Matthew. After a discussion with his more forceful sister, Marilla, they decide to keep her. The story ensues with one adventure after another with Anne getting into trouble because she acts according to her instincts, not according to society’s expectations.

I also enjoyed the Laura Ingalls Wilder series. The books not only tell the story of pioneer girl, Laura, but also give a glimpse of what life was like on the frontier. The stories unfold through the eyes of Laura, who loves to tag along with Pa, and as a result has adventures that other girls do not.

A farm girl’s best friend was ‘Anne’ I suspect my favorite children’s author will be different than most because I was a child during the Depression and World War II years.

My heroine was “Anne of Green Gables,” written by Lucy Maud Montgomery. Having two older sisters who thought of me as a pest, my best friend was Anne, who was even more of a misfit than I. She was an orphan adopted by brother and sister siblings, a bachelor and spinster who farmed on Prince Edward Island and wanted a boy for farm chores.

The child who arrived from the orphanage in Nova Scotia was a girl — a red-haired one at that — and thus the adventure begins!

There are eight wonderful books following “Anne” from adoption to motherhood. Because northern Minnesota farm children were more isolated in those days, Anne and I spent much time together — the more mistakes she made, the better I loved her.

I have all eight books about her — now out of print — collected from oldbook sales, thrift shops, etc.

In adulthood, I have been to Prince Edward Island several times and love its green fields, red earth and blue water as much as Anne did.

Of my six granddaughters, only one reads the “Anne” books as I did.

So, Erin, I leave them all to you — even the first edition!

Savvy reader favorites, from Calvin to Mumpsy to Pippi

avvy.mn staff asked readers, leaders, writers and other folks to share their fond memories of childhood books. Judging by the response we received on Facebook (facebook.com/savvymn) this topic hit a happy nerve. Visit the Savvy.mn website to add your favorites to the list.

When I was growing up, I read all the “Chip Hilton” and “The Hardy Boys” books.

As a father, my sons and I loved reading “Calvin and Hobbes.”

time I see a male lion I want to run up and hug it shouting “Aslan!” Probably not the brightest idea.

A couple that come to mind would be “The Velveteen Rabbit” or “Corduroy.” Both teach compassion.

I pick “Guess How Much I Love You” by Sam McBratney. I loved reading this book to my son when he was little. I think it’s important for children to know that their parents’ love is limitless and constant, and this book warms my heart every time I read it.

Gov. Mark Dayton My mother claims that the reason she taught me to read when I was 3 years old was to keep me out of her hair. I guess I asked for One. Too. Many. Read-alouds of “Mumpsy Goes to Kindergarten.” (She says she actually hid the book once to keep from reading it again, but I found it — ha!) While Mumpsy was my first book, the one I remember best was “Half Magic” by Edward Eager. Not only did it capture my imagination (which was wild in the first place), but it proved to me that books — as well as the stories in them — could take me anywhere, in the world or out of it.

“Love You Forever,” written by Robert Munsch, illustrated by Sheila McGraw. It does a great job capturing a mother’s love through all the chapters of her child’s life, and just like it says, “I’ll love you for always.”

What a great message to kids! When my husband and I found out we were having our first child, I also bought the book as a gift to give to his mother. No matter how old your baby is, you love them, and it’s great to know they know that (smile). I get teary-eyed every time I read it (smile).

I love Maurice Sendak’s “Where the Wild Things Are.” The pictures are so fun and I love hearing my son roar his terrible roar, gnash his terrible teeth, roll his terrible eyes and show his terrible claws. We have such a great time reading it together.

When I was young, I devoured “Pippi in the South Seas” and “Pippi Goes on Board.”

My all-time favorite books are the “BetsyTacy” books by Maud Hart Lovelace — I still read the entire series nearly every year. I also loved “Charlotte’s Web” by E.B. White, “Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland” and “Through the Looking Glass” by Lewis

Terri Schlichenmeyer, book reviewer My mother used to read chapter books to me for bedtime stories each night and I remember being whisked away to the magical world of Narnia each night in “The Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe.” To this day every

My favorite childhood book is “Sadako and the Thousand Paper Cranes” by Eleanor Coerr. The story tells the tale of a young girl diagnosed with Leukemia who, following Japanese legend, tries to create 1,000 paper cranes so that she would be granted her wish to live. It is a story of sadness and of hope, of courage and compassion. I remember reading it over and over again as a second-grader.

“The Baby-sitters Club” by A nn M. Martin. I use to love reading those books. I couldn’t wait until the new books from the series would arrive in the mail, along with different gifts. Great memories!

Carroll and anything

by Beverly Cleary.

Books with strong fema le cha racters were (and still are) important to me.

We are lucky that so ma ny t a lented w r it e r s a r e c u r rently choosing to write books for children and young adults. Kate DiCamillo (“Because of WinnDixie,” “Mercy Watson to the Rescue!”), Kevin Henkes (“Junonia,” “Olive’s Ocean”) and Gary D. Schmidt (“The Wednesday Wars,” “Lizzie Bright and the Buckminster Boy”) are creating amazing work for today’s young audiences. It’s nearly impossible to read books by any of these three authors without either laughing hysterically bl — and d sometimes ti or sobbing uncontrollably both within the same chapter.
