Paideia Academy will close at the end of the 2015-16 academic year as its board of directors has cited a lack of financial resources to keep the 11-year-old charter school operating in Apple Valley. “Based on Paideia’s projected enrollment for 2016-2017 and the anticipated revenue and costs

over the next three years, the Paideia Academy Board of Directors has made the very difficult decision to close the school at the end of this school year,� the school reported in a Feb. 19 press release. Paideia Board of Directors Chairman Jonathan Bradley said the board considered closing the school as one of its options after the school’s authorizer, Friends of

Education, sent on Jan. 19 a “letter of concern� describing how the school had to increase student achievement, stabilize enrollment, and create a balanced budget for the next three years. After two years of being designated a HighQuality Charter School by the Minnesota Department of Education, the school’s Minnesota Comprehensive Assessment

Minnesotans will help determine who becomes the nominees for president of the United States on Super Tuesday, March 1. Precinct caucuses for the Republican Party and DFL Party, which is aligned with the national Democratic Party, will begin 7 p.m. at sites throughout the state. The chairs of each party said they are expecting a large turnout. DFL Party Chair Ken Martin, of Eagan, advised people caucusing for the party to register at their local caucuses at 6:30 p.m. while Keith Downey, chair of the Republican Party of Minnesota, is encouraging people to arrive by 6 p.m. or 6:30 p.m. to ensure time to register and find seats. Caucuses entail the election of local party officers and the proposal of resolutions for the party platform, but the first order of business will be the presidential preference ballot. This year, the results will be binding for both parties, meaning that the delegates selected must agree to vote based upon the results of the choices of caucus attendees. Martin said the DFL Party’s presidential preference ballot has been binding for years. The rule is new for the Republican Party, Downey said. “In past years, we held the straw poll vote, but it was not proscriptive in terms of how many delegates the candidates

A binturong cub was born Feb. 12 at the Minnesota Zoo in Apple Valley, the first of its species born at the zoo in 35 years. Zoo officials say the cub, whose gender is not yet known, is doing well in a behind-the-scenes area, gaining weight and spending time inside a nest box with its mother. Binturongs are listed as a “vulnerable� species under the International Union for Conservation of Nature; the recent birth is the ninth born at the Minnesota Zoo in its history. Though the cub is not yet visible to the public, binturongs can be seen in the zoo’s Tropics Trail area; sometimes called “bearcats,� they are members of the mongoose family, and are tree-dwellers native to tropical forests in Asia.

Burnsville meeting airs gripes by John Gessner SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

A rising chorus of suburban angst over the Metropolitan Council came Monday to Burnsville, where critics lit into the regional transit and planning body and elected officials urged reforms to disperse its authority. Some proposals to curtail the council’s power emerged last year in the state Legislature. Expect more this year, officials said. A coalition of four counties, including Dakota, is calling for a majority of Met Council members to be local elected officials appointed by cities and counties. All members are now appointed by the gov-

ernor. The Metro Cities group has also proposed reforms. “I personally feel like this is an opportunity,� said state Rep. Roz Peterson, R-Lakeville, who hosted a Feb. 22 “town meeting� on the Met Council at Burnhaven Library. “We have a governor (Mark Dayton) who is open to seeing some changes� and isn’t seeking re-election. “There are some benefits, certainly, to regional planning,� said Chris Gerlach, of Apple Valley, one of three Dakota County commissioners at the meeting. “The pendulum has just swung too far.� Several area Repub- Dakota County Commissioner Chris Gerlach, of Apple Valley, discussed proposals to reform the Metropolitan Council during a Feb. 22 meeting at Burnhaven Library in See COUNCIL, 14A Burnsville.

Parents honor daughter they lost with ‘Make a Splash’ Fundraiser at Water Park of America set March 6 by Andrew Miller SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

An Apple Valley couple is honoring the daughter they lost to cancer through the Mary Moon Foundation. Peter and Christine O’Keefe started the nonprofit foundation in honor of their 3-year-old daughter, Mary, who died from cancer in 2009. The Mary Moon Foundation is hosting its fifth annual “Make a Splash� event Sunday, March 6, at the Water Park of America in Bloomington, with proceeds going to ChildFamily Life Services at the University of Minnesota Masonic Children’s Hospital. Mary was hospitalized for much of her final year — 63 consecutive days, at one point. The toys, games, painting supplies and puppet shows provided by

Child-Family Life were a regular source of pleasure for the girl while she battled neuroblastoma, a cancer that occurs mostly in infants and toddlers. “From our perspective, the services of Child-Family Life were just as important as the medical procedures,� Christine O’Keefe said. “They were there the day Mary was diagnosed — blowing bubbles to ease the tension — all the way to the end, when they made a mold of her hand as a memorial.� The nonprofit grew out of the O’Keefe’s efforts in the wake of Mary’s passing to bring art supplies to patients at the children’s hospital where Mary had been treated, in hopes of brightening the days of other kids there. Founded in 2011, the Mary Moon Foundation holds fundraising events to help finance toys, games

and art supplies for Masonic Children’s Hospital. Craft supplies such as crayons, paper and markers are all given to the hospitalized kids to keep, because the risk of spreading germs is high. Largely due to its annual “Make a Splash� event at the Water Park of America, the Mary Moon Foundation — so named because Mary’s nickname was Moon — has gifted $85,000 to the hospital since the nonprofit’s inception. This year’s “Make a Splash� event, which starts at 4 p.m. on March 6, features discounted admission to the Water Park of America, games, entertainment, food and a silent auction. Tickets can be purchased at www.marymoonfoundation.org.

A suicide prevention program called Don’t Stop Believing will start at 6 p.m. Friday, March 4, at Apple Valley High School. The event, which will include a performance by comedian and author Kevin Breel, was organized in response to recent suicides in Dakota County and beyond as Apple Valley resident John Glynn has led the effort. Glynn has coordinated with the Rosemount-Apple Valley-Eagan School District, Apple Valley High School and St. Paulbased Suicide Prevention Collaborative to organize the event that aims to remove the stigma that pre-

vents people from talking about mental health issues. Designed for high school-age students, the event will include a resource fair, panel discussion led by local high school students and a presentation by Woodburybased theater group S.O.S. for Youth. Glynn said the highlight of the event will be Breel, who is in demand worldwide and is touted as offering comedy along with an honest and hopeful conversation about mental health. He has battled depression, which he has chronicled in his book “Boy Meets Depression: Or Life Sucks and Then You Live.�

As a mental health activist, Breel is the national spokesperson for the Bell LET’S TALK campaign and has been a guest speaker at more than 100 college campuses. His work has been featured by Huffington Post, MTV, CNN, “The Today Show,� Mashable and the Wall Street Journal. As a 19-year-old, Breel’s TEDx talk “Confessions of a Depressed Comic� went instantly viral online – with more than half a million views in less than 30 days. It has amassed more than 3 million viewers and has been featured on more than 200 media outlets. Glynn said he hopes the event empowers young people to talk about the

problems they are facing and seek help when they need it. “We are trying to make a shift for students to help inspire forever tomorrows,� he said. People will go to the doctor if they have a broken arm, he said, and he wants young people to think the same way if they are broken by depression. Glynn said young people will often talk to their friends about their problems facing depression and thoughts of suicide, but often don’t turn to adults for help. He said he hopes the program results in students realizing that if they notice their friends need help that they take charge and get adults involved.

“We want them to say: ‘I know where you can go. You have to go. I care about you,’ � Glynn said. He said a similar program was organized in Woodbury and had great success in getting students talking more about their mental health problems and seeking help. Glynn said prevention programs like this are tricky to judge since the lack of bad things happening is the main outcome. He said he has appreciated the help offered by Apple Valley High School Principal Steve Degenaar, who has really championed the cause of suicide prevention. Glynn said he has sent information and posters regarding the event to

Kevin Breel high schools throughout District 196 and even into St. Paul and Prior Lake. “We hope to pack the house,� he said. More information is at www.suicidepreventioncollaborative.org. Email Tad Johnson at tad.johnson@ecm-inc.com. Follow him on Twitter @ editorTJ.

Dakota Communications Center leader Diane Lind to retire by Laura Adelmann SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

After nine years as executive director of the Dakota Communications Center, Diane Lind will retire on May 31. Lind was appointed to the role in January 2007 after 21 years of working in 911 dispatch services and was responsible for overall management of the countywide emergency dispatch center. Lind was selected from multiple applicants to replace the DCC’s first

executive director, Kent Therkelsen, former police chief in Eagan. She had been the DCC’s first operations director when the joint emergency dispatch center was being planned and then opened. She is a former communications supervisor with the Burnsville Police Department. She announced her retirement to the board of directors, composed of elected Dakota County officials, at their Feb. 18 board meeting, according to Justin Miller, executive

committee board chair and Lakeville city administrator. Miller described Lind’s leadership as key to the smooth operations at the DCC. “There’s just a great group of dispatchers and staff that, under her leadership, has really operated seamlessly,� he said. “That is a testament to her leadership.� In a news release, Lind expressed how hard it was to make the decision to retire. “While I am excited

to take this step into retirement, this was an extremely difficult decision to make,� Lind said. “Public service to the citizens of Dakota County is all I have known for over 30 years.� Miller said the executive committee, composed of city managers and administrators throughout the county, has been directed by the board to find a search firm and recruit for the open position. The news release said the search process is to

begin immediately with the intent of having a new director on board as soon as possible. “Over the next month, the executive board will be talking about the qualities, the traits and experience level we’re looking for the next director,� Miller said. Miller described Lind’s contributions as significant and the work as integral to public safety. “She clearly has the knowledge and the expertise of that field, and so we’re going to miss her,�

Miller said. Dakota Communications Center provides 911 dispatch services to all of Dakota County under a joint powers agreement between Dakota County and the cities of Apple Valley, Burnsville, Eagan, Farmington, Hastings, Inver Grove Heights, Lakeville, Mendota Heights, Rosemount, South St. Paul and West St. Paul.

Opinion Keep transportation funding as top priority for state surplus It is commonly assumed that the offyear legislative session is simply a time for legislators to pass a bonding bill, fix some recently-passed legislation and go home. That’s far from the case in 2016. When this session opens on March 8, legislators will face a big challenge. They must figure how to utilize a $1.2 billion general fund surplus that is projected for the next biennium. According to Minnesota Management and Budget, the general fund forecast is now $1.871 billion. Under existing law, $544 million must go into the budget reserve and $71 million must go to environmental funds, leaving a balance of $1.256 billion. During this session the debate will be about that surplus: how to spend it, reserve it or whether to refund dollars to taxpayers. The ECM Publishers Editorial Board continues to favor spending a major portion of the surplus to improve roads and fix bridges throughout the state. We recognize passing a gas tax to fund a longrange plan won’t happen this election year, even though it is estimated $11 billion will be needed the next 10 years to upgrade bridges, roads and highways. If a Republican-backed proposal to direct existing taxes on auto parts and rental car fees to road and bridge needs is ap-

ECM Editorial proved, the negative impact on the state’s general fund must receive serious consideration. We favor utilizing some of the surplus to further build the reserve fund, and we believe some funds should go to reducing taxes by increasing the eligibility for the Child and Dependent Care Credit, a reduction in the statewide business property tax and utilizing a new Market Tax Credit as proposed by Republicans. The latter is one of the nation’s most successful programs using the federal New Markets Tax Credit program. New Markets Tax Credits revitalize low-income, distressed communities by creating publicprivate partnerships that provide muchneeded capital to strengthen businesses and community facilities. We also favor Gov. Mark Dayton’s plan to expand the state college grant program and address tuition issues at the two-year colleges and technical schools. We continue to favor spending for preschool education, but funding questions remain for a universal, public schoolbased program. Districts continue to adjust facilities and curriculum to accommodate all-day, every-day kindergarten. If a universal pre-kindergarten program

is adopted, schools must have the classrooms and facilities to handle the program. A study of the impact on private daycare facilities is warranted. Funding the Southwest Light Rail Transit line from Minneapolis to Eden Prairie is essential for easing traffic congestion, moving employees to jobs and stimulating investment along the line. With federal dollars again in the budget for 2016, the Legislature should continue to study a seven-county regional halfcent sales tax to fund the state’s $135 million share to keep this important line funded and on track. The proposed sales tax is the Metropolitan Council’s preferred funding option. Last year, during the Editorial Board’s study of violence in society, we realized there is a need to have stronger penalties for hate crimes. We favor Sen. Ron Latz’s proposed legislation to stiffen hate-crime charges from a gross misdemeanor to a felony. We continue to call for stronger penalties for drivers whose distractions cause serious accidents and deaths. We believe the penalties for driving while texting should be the same as for drunken driving. The penalty for a first offense of texting while driving is $50 and $225 for a second offense. Compare this to a first drunken driv-

ing offense of up to 90 days in jail, a fine of up to $1,000, and a suspended driver’s license of 90 days. ` Furthermore, we favor a mandatory helmet law for motorcyclists, considering the number of fatalities involving motorcycles. Local government aid (LGA) to Minnesota cities also remains a viable topic, particularly for cities in greater Minnesota that have seen this funding source gutted. A one-time injection of budget surplus would be welcome but the Legislature must decide if additional funding for LGA is a wise investment and how it can be supported with a permanent funding stream. The inability of the governor and lawmakers to agree on a special session this winter will create other topics for this session. The Real ID driver’s license requirement of the federal government, finding funds to study racial disparity and extending unemployment insurance compensation for laid-off miners on the Iron Range are all subjects that must be addressed. This is an opinion of the ECM Editorial Board. Sun Thisweek and the Dakota County Tribune are part of ECM Publishers Inc.

Community forums can foster interfaith relationships by Don Heinzman SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

A Muslim mother recently told a hushed Bloomington crowd she is afraid for her safety and that of her children because of how Muslims are being targeted, particularly by the media. Zanib Mohamed, of Bloomington, is a student advocate for all students at Bloomington Kennedy High School. She was one of four speakers at a January forum titled “One Nation, Many Beliefs,” sponsored by the high school, where over half of the students are nonwhite. Because the school’s enrollment is so diverse, Principal Andy Beaton and school staff decided to have the session, which was attended by high-ranking school and city officials, some parents and teachers. Mohamed said since the media has been singling out Muslim students, some Muslim Bloomington Kennedy students have been coming to her fearful and with tears in their eyes. Beaton said some Muslim students have expressed their fears to him as well. So far, students have not disturbed Muslims; none have been disciplined for that,

Sun Thisweek Columnist

Don Heinzman Beaton said. Mohamed and the other speakers particularly zeroed in on the media, which they say is one-sided, citing Muslim Americans for some of the shootings while not citing other shooters as Christian Americans or any other religions in their broadcasts. As a result, Muslim children are reporting they are being taunted more. Mohamed related how she told her son she could not take him to a birthday party because it was around the time terrorists attacked a restaurant in Paris. The speakers all agreed that most Americans do not understand Islam, which they say in some ways is comparable to Christianity. They particularly stressed that Islam as well as Christianity have peaceful goals, and only a small percentage are in ISIS, which they said is not following the

teachings of Islam. As for women covering themselves and particularly their foreheads, the speakers said, today there are Christian sects who cover their body completely. Islam, they said, does not oppose other religions, but in effect accepts the teachings of other religions, including what is written in the Bible. The problem, they contended, is people are suspicious because they do not understand Islam. Speaker Hanadi Chehabeddine suggested that communities should sponsor events so people can understand Islam, and she urged people to talk openly and ask questions. In Brooklyn Park, Mayor Jeff Lunde led the formation of an interfaith discussion Jan. 28, put together by Islam and Christian faith leaders. He said: “We want people, across cultures and faiths, interacting and having a conversation. It’s really hard to hate someone when you know them.” Out of that discussion attended by faith and community leaders, the group decided to start field trips when members of churches and mosques will visit one another. “We rely on the faith community be-

cause we believe there are shared values and shared goals and we should talk about what we share,” Lunde said. Nausheena Hussain, a board member of the Brooklyn Park Islamic Center, shares the mayor’s opinion. She is working with others to get people to tell their stories about interactions between people of Islamic faith and their communities, hoping that people have more commonalities than differences. “The main thing is that we want everyone in Brooklyn Park to be united. It is an opportunity for us to get to know each other and dispel the myths,” she said. As for Beaton, he believes the forum succeeded in convincing the people that Bloomington Kennedy respects all students and that it is a safe place to work and learn. Hussain summed it up well: “What people of Islamic faith want for themselves and their families isn’t different than anyone else. Everyone is trying to live the American dream.” Don Heinzman is a columnist for ECM Publishers. He can be reached through editor.thisweek@ecm-inc.com. Columns reflect the opinion of the author.

the stakes are high. The crowds are coming, and are ready for action. Do you have a better offer for Tuesday night, March 1? So where’s the party? Well, there’s more than one. Take your pick at caucusfinder.sos.state.mn.us. The parties are a bit exclusive though, and it’s dishonest to crash a party with which you are not truly aligned. But there’s a special party for those who like exclusion. Our nation was born in 1789 as an exclusive whites-only club. It took 76 years to free the slaves (1865), to give the right to vote to blacks along with most other “races” (1868 and 1964), to give the right of citizenship to Asians (1868), the right to vote even to women (1920), and finally citizenship to Native Americans (1924).

District 196 eyes site in Lakeville for new school 22-acre site is at Diamond Path and 160th Street by Jessica Harper SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

The Rosemount-Apple Valley-Eagan School District is looking at potentially building a new school in Lakeville. The School Board directed staff on Feb. 23 to begin negations with Lakeville developer Traditions Company to purchase a 22.4-acre parcel at Diamond Path and 160th Street. “When we start to look at location and impact on the need for boundary modifications, this particular site is one the better sites,� said Jeff Solomon, finance director for District 196. The property — locat-

ed in the Traditions housing development — is one of three sites that the district considered. Officials also consider another Lakeville property as well as land in Rosemount and Apple Valley. District officials agreed that the Traditions site would best alleviate overcrowding issues and accommodate future growth in the southeastern portion of the district without drastically altering existing attendance boundaries, Solomon said. The site was previously a mining site. Environmental contaminants from past mining activity have already been cleaned up by the developer, dis-

trict officials said. Solomon said he expects a purchase agreement will be made in time for a proposal to go before in the School Board on March 14. At that time, a purchase price will be made public. The project’s estimated cost is $29.8 million, which will be paid by the bond referendum that voters passed last year. Site work is expected to begin this summer with construction of the building to be complete in August 2017, in time for the start of the 201718 school year.

Eagan middle school teacher charged with stalking a student Allegedly sent inappropriate messages to 12-year-old girl by Jessica Harper SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

A former Eagan middle school teacher was charged on Thursday with stalking a 12-yearold female student. Cody Woodrow Hansen, who was a teacher at Black Hawk Middle School, allegedly sent numerous inappropriate messages to a student in his class via Snapchat from November to January. Hansen, 25, has since resigned from the school district. The student took screen shots and saved some of the conversations, which she reported to Eagan police, according to the criminal complaint. “Criminal activity of this nature is a breach of trust of students and

is a violation of the law and school policy,� Dakota County Attorney Jim Backstrom said in a statement. “This behavior ultimately hurts both the student and the student’s parents who have placed their trust in school staff.� Hansen, a Hastings resident, contacted the girl during the course of the school day and during holiday breaks using various usernames, including one in which his name was spelled backward. In one message Hansen allegedly told the girl she was cute. In another, he asked if she had ever kissed anyone and if she liked older men. The girl didn’t know Hansen sent the messages until he admitted doing so, and he stated that he could get into trouble for

talking to her, according to the complaint. During one exchange, the student told Hansen that what he was doing was illegal and “extremely weird.� The girl told police she felt “creepy and unsafe� in Hansen’s classroom. In an interview with police, Hansen alledgedly admitted he found the student’s Snapchat username from her Instagram account and sent her the inappropriate messages. Hansen told police he has stopped communicating with the girl and “hoped this would all go away.� Hansen was charged by summons and his first court appearance has not yet been scheduled.

Young scientists share in historic discovery by John Gessner SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

The pride of authorship is crowded on the paper announcing the first detection of gravitational waves, the existence of which was foretold by Albert Einstein a century ago. Two young brothers from Burnsville, Michael and Scott Coughlin, are among the 1,004 scientists named in the paper’s notes. So many names is not unusual for a big scientific discovery — the Higgs boson paper carried a few thousand, Michael noted. The teams of scientists across the world who worked on the gravitational wave project are happy to share the credit. “Especially the people who have been on board for, like, 20 years — they’re ecstatic,� Scott said. “This is their whole life.� The Coughlin brothers have been on board for several years. Both graduated from Trinity School at River Ridge in Eagan — Michael in 2008 and Scott in 2010. Both brothers (sons of Burnsville City Council Member Bill Coughlin) wrote gravitational wave research proposals in applications for prestigious overseas scholarships. Both are affiliated with the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO). The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, which has antennas in Washington state and Louisiana, published the gravitational wave report along with a European scientific team called the Virgo Collaboration. Last Sept. 14, the two LIGO detectors simultaneously observed a transient gravitational wave signal. “These observations demonstrate the existence of

binary stellar-mass black hole systems,� the LIGO paper said. “This is the first detection of gravitational waves and the first observation of a binary black hole merger.� The discovery fulfills “the last prediction of Einstein’s general theory of relativity,� the New York Times reports.

Scholars and scientists Michael earned a bachelor’s degree in physics and astronomy and math from Carleton College. He won a Churchill Scholarship and earned a master’s degree at Cambridge University’s Institute of Astronomy in England. Now he’s working on a doctorate in physics at Harvard, where he’s a researcher and teaching assistant. Michael said his research work is split between LIGO and the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope project. As a LIGO researcher, he probes the qualities and mysteries of binary black hole systems. “The fundamental difference between what I work on and what happened with this detection is I look for gravitational waves that are present all the time but are not necessarily so loud in amplitude that we can see them individually,� the 25-yearold said. “Whereas this one that was detected was loud enough that you could see it in the data of the gravitation wave detectors by eye.� His work has implications for detecting other forces in the universe, Michael said. “I work on searches that, if you were to imagine taking all of these black hole systems in the universe and summing up their gravitational wave contribution here at Earth, I search for what

you call a stochastic background of gravitational waves from all of these systems,� he said. Scott, 23, graduated from Illinois’ Northwestern University with majors in math, economics and classics. He earned a Fulbright Scholarship to study gravitational wave physics at Cardiff University in Wales. Since September he’s been back at Northwestern as a graduate research assistant in the physics and astronomy department. The work of LIGO

researchers at Northwestern has been to prepare for, and then execute, extraction of physical data about the black hole system from its gravitational wave, Scott said. “This is the first direct information about black holes that’s ever been,� he said. “What we’ve done to prep for that is to simulate this thing happening, basically. We’ve spent many years practicing for this thing to happen, to hone our skills, and then we got to actually put it into practice four months ago

Immersed in music for 7Days a week Rosemount graduate returns to town with a cappella group by Tad Johnson SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Rosemount High School graduate Madison Holtze is coming back to Rosemount with a few of her friends on Saturday night. It’s not a rare visit for Holtze, who didn’t stray too far from home as a sophomore at the University of Minnesota, but her crew is a group of accomplished singers ready to entertain as 7Days A Cappella at 7:30 p.m. at the Rosemount Steeple Center. “I love the people in 7Days,� Holtze said. “It is cool to be a group of people who have a genuine love of singing.� 7Days performs in the same vein as popular a cappella groups such as Tonic Sol Fa and Straight No Chaser, but differ in that it is comprised of both men and women. That allows the group a dynamic range as it covers

such artists as ’80s one-hit wonder A-ha, indie rock band Bastille, Spanish artist Nika and pop legend Stevie Wonder. Those familiar with the 2012 and 2015 “Pitch Perfectâ€? movies will recognize the kinds of arrangements 7Days offers, combining vocal instrumentation such as beat box. Holtze is a vocal performance major, who one year after being selected for the group among about 100 who auditioned, is a music coordinator this year charged with making the audition selections. “I had no idea I would be chosen,â€? she said. “Absolutely not did I think I would get it. ‌ I was really hoping I’d make it.â€? The group, which includes only one other music major like Holtze, practices two times a week for two hours. She said those kinds of diverse musical backgrounds means that Holtze is teaching in an atmo-

Though the group has directors, each person contributes to an arrangement and brings ideas without having to think about “theory and technicality.� She said 7Days serves as a outlet for not having

to be immersed in classical music all the time. Holtze is taking music theory, history and vocal classes. Her goal is to graduate from the four-year program and pursue an advanced degree that could lead her into conducting, being a college professor or singing in a professional opera or musical theater company. “I love it,� she said of

studying classical music. “It’s fascinating just learning about the music history. It is so much fun for me.� Holtze is the daughter of John and Julia Holtze. Her father is a business consultant and plays in the band at Hosanna Lutheran Church in Lakeville, where her mother is a pastor in adult ministries. Her sister, Petra, is a Rosemount High School junior

who is involved in marching band, choir and theater. Tickets for Saturday’s show are $10 and can be purchased through the Rosemount Area Arts Council’s website at www. rosemountarts.com. The Steeple Center is located at 14375 S. Robert Trail. Email Tad Johnson at tad.johnson@ecm-inc.com.

Education Briefs Eastview stars at state One-Act Festival The cast and crew of Eastview High School’s one-act play “Doubt: A Parable� earned a starred-performance rating at this year’s state One-Act Play Festival held Feb. 12 at O’Shaughnessy Auditorium in St. Paul. Eagan High School was also among the eight state qualifiers in Class AA, but not among the three to earn a starred rating. Eagan also performed “Doubt� by John Patrick Shanley. For Eastview, it was the school’s 11th appearance at the state festival and 11th starred rating. Eagan made its record

20th appearance at the state festival and has received 18 starred ratings in previous appearances, the most of any school in the state. The starred rating is the highest award given to a one-act play and is the equivalent of a state championship. Judges rate the plays according to specific criteria, including pace, blocking, costuming and projection of the play’s meaning. Each production is limited to 10 minutes of stage preparation and 35 minutes of performance. Eastview’s performance was directed by Scott Durocher and Rob Rachow and student director Cali Swanson; cast members included Caleb Rotman, Kacie Riddle, Rachel Williams and Maya Butler; Kaila Hellam

played violin, and crew members were Sarah Amundson, Jill Baker, Brian Coan, Corey Christian, Dayton Duffy, Andy Johns, David Johnson, Claire Jordahl, Sam Lynch, Jasa Mahlen, Cade Schroeder-Phillips, Zahra Shaba, Bhoomi Parikh and Whitney Weichelt.

Better Business Bureau: Suspect firms promise student loan relief According to the Wall Street Journal, the class of 2015, on average, graduated from college owing slightly more than $35,000 in student loans. But they’re not alone. Student loan debt is weighing many people down and scammers are promising quick and easy relief. Unfortunately, these promises are hollow, and too many hopeful borrowers don’t discover that until after they’ve paid still more money out of pocket. Better Business Bureau of Minnesota and North Dakota (BBB) reminds people it’s easy to make grand claims – but tough to de-

liver. “Scammers often prey on those that are desperate, and they know there are many people out there who are dealing with a lot of student loan debt,� said Dana Badgerow, president and CEO of BBB of Minnesota and North Dakota. “Unfortunately, these socalled offers of assistance leave people in even worse shape financially.� BBB of Minnesota and North Dakota has received two reports recently through BBB Scam Tracker wherein Minnesota residents with student loan

debt signed up with a California firm that promised to help them qualify for a student loan forgiveness program. Both individuals paid the company nearly $600 upfront for the service and then the company failed to deliver. BBB advises people to watch out for scams and suspect offers that entice student loan holders by promising to wipe out their debt. How these ‘offers’ work: You get a phone call, email or spot a post on social media that claims a company can erase your student loan debt. Many claim that

their service is made possible by a new government program or policy. The company then asks for an upfront fee to supposedly negotiate with your lender or student loan servicing company on your behalf. They will claim they’ve helped numerous other clients, but don’t believe them! Student loans can only be forgiven under specific circumstances, which are not fast or easy. Once the money has been paid, the scammers take your fee and disappear. In another version of the student loan scam, con artists claim that they can save you money by

consolidating your loans. Some charge a fee for using a free government service. Others may actually move your loans to a private lender with a higher interest rate. The best way to avoid student loan relief scams? Be on guard, know your options and stay in contact with your lender or loan servicing company. Contact BBB or your school’s financial aid office if you receive questionable offers. You can also research loan forgiveness programs offered by the federal government by visiting studentaid.ed.gov/sa/repay-loans.

Focus on wellness at The Body Project by Jessica Harper SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

By age 54, Mary Broback had tried for years through exercise and chiropractic care to alleviate her chronic back pain but nothing worked. Then in 2013 a friend recommended a holistic rehabilitation program offered at The Body Project in Eagan. Eager to try something different, Broback decided to give it a try. “I knew right away it was different from anything else I tried,� Broback said. Thanks to satisfied clients like Broback, The Body Project has grown and expanded exponentially in recent years. In 2014 the center expanded its facility to include meditation, stress management and sleep management programs. As part of its stress management program, The Body Project began offering light therapy. It also recently began offering micro current systems to identify unhealthy muscle tissues. When owners Rob and Paula Smith opened the fitness and wellness center in 2008, it focused primarily on exercise and nutrition programs. From the beginning, the center took a holistic approach to addressing health and fitness by examining other factors such as food allergies, diet, stress and environment in addition to exercise and nutrition goals. Broback said she began to notice improvements after the first few treatments. Three years later Broback said she is not only painfree but has also lost 30 pounds. “I’m in excellent health today. Probably the best health I’ve ever been,� Broback, 57, said. Broback quickly became passionate about The Body Project and the work it does, so much so that she left her corporate administrative job last year to work

12A February 26, 2016 SUN THISWEEK - Apple Valley

Sports Eagles know they won’t have easy time at state Apple Valley seeks 11th consecutive wrestling championship Nine Apple Valley wrestlers will be in the state individual tournament Friday and Saturday at Xcel Energy Center. Hall, the defending Class 3A champion at 170 pounds, will try to become the first Minnesota high school wrestler to win six individual state championships. Sophomore Gable Steveson is going for a second consecutive state title at 220. Five of the Eagles’ nine individual qualifiers have been to state before. That includes Morgan, who will make his fifth appearance in the individual tourney. “I want to wrestle the way I know I can and show everyone how good I actually am, since the last few years I haven’t really been able to prove that. I want to prove it this year,” said Morgan, whose best state finish was third in 2014. Hall, who is headed to Penn State, understands his high school career is about to end, but “there’s a lot to look forward to this week. There’s a lot I could easily be sad about. Keeping a positive attitude will be good for me this week, and acting like it’s another week. “My coach calls it tunnel vision. Not looking ahead, and not looking back at my past accomplishments.” There will be plenty of time for that after Saturday. For now, the Xcel beckons again.

It’s that time of year again – time for the wrestling community to speculate about whether Apple Valley can be beaten at the state tournament. The Eagles, particularly their veteran wrestlers, have heard fans cheer loudly for Apple Valley’s opponents at venues such as Xcel Energy Center. They’ve read unflattering things written about them online. As the Eagles seek an 11th consecutive state Class 3A championship this week, they seem to respond to the chatter from what coach Dalen Wasmund calls “the naysayers” with more amusement than anger. “I don’t know if (my teammates) read it or anything, but I know my dad does, and he’ll tell me stuff people have said (online),” said senior Mark Hall, who will go for an unprecedented sixth state individual championship this weekend. “For me, it’s all motivation, and I can only assume for these guys it is, too. We have too much history, too much we’ve worked through already. There’s nothing somebody can say to us that we haven’t heard before.” “It never affects me in a negative way,” said senior Brock Morgan. “It kind of makes me feel like a lot of people want us to lose, so it fires me up and makes me want to prove that no, we’re not going to lose.” Some years in the recent past it wasn’t so much a question of whether Apple Valley would win the state championship, but by how many points. That wasn’t the case last year – the Eagles were tied with St. Michael-Albertville with one weight remaining in the Class 3A championship match before winning 36-30 – and it might not be the case this year. No. 1-ranked Apple Valley (18-1) will face Hastings in the first round of the Class 3A team tournament at 9 a.m. Thursday at Xcel Energy Center and might have to go through Farmington and St. Michael-Albertville as well if it is to win another championship. The Eagles defeated STMA and Farmington in the regular season, but both matches were close.

Lightning wins Class AA consolation title Comeback victory over Lakeville South closes girls hockey season by Mike Shaughnessy SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Although Eastview didn’t achieve what it wanted at last week’s state girls hockey tournament, it moved up one rung on the ladder. The Lightning (20-7-4) set a goal of playing three games at Xcel Energy Center. Eastview played three games in the tournament but the last two were at Ridder Arena following a 1-0 loss to Edina in the Class AA quarterfinal round. Victories over Forest Lake and Lakeville South gave the Lightning fifth place and the consolation trophy. Eastview, making its second appearance at the state tournament, placed sixth last year. Natalie Snodgrass and Mary Keating scored goals 30 seconds apart early in the third period as the Lightning defeated Lakeville South 2-1 in the Class AA consolation final Saturday. It was Lakeville South’s first loss all season to a South Suburban Conference team; the SSC champion Cougars went 16-0-2 in league play during the regular

In the Class AA quarterfinals Feb. 18, Edina’s Emily Oden scored the game’s only goal at 7:44 of

the third period as the No. 2-seeded Hornets edged Eastview. Snodgrass had a difficult time finding lanes to shoot, even though she did have seven of the Lightning’s 17 shots on goal. In the final seconds

the Lightning got a draw to Snodgrass, who took a wrist shot only to have it swallowed up by the Edina defense before it got to goalie Anna Goldstein. “They did a good job of clogging the middle and I couldn’t get a shot to the

net,” Snodgrass said. Eastview coach Herb Harvey said the Lightning played a strong game, especially on defense. “Edina’s a fast team, all three lines,” he said. “We knew they were looking to move the puck crossice a lot. I really thought we were prepared for that with our defense.” The Hornets’ Oden broke through that defense one time, and it was enough to send Edina to the semifinals. “My defense did such a good job of clearing the puck and clearing the slot,” Tschida said. “I thought they did a really good job of shutting them down.” “So did you,” Snodgrass added. Eastview remained in the tournament with a 5-3 victory over Forest Lake on Friday in the consolation semifinals at Ridder Arena. Snodgrass had two goals and one assist as Eastview held off the Rangers (18-9-3). Snodgrass, who had 37 goals this season, scored on the power play late in the second period and added an even-strength goal early in the third as

Eastview took a 4-2 lead. Tschida made 37 saves. Mary Keating and Haley Ford scored first-period goals for the Lightning. Molly Beckman scored an empty-netter with 10 seconds remaining.

Notes • Snodgrass, who also scored the tournamentwinning goal for the U.S. team at the Under-18 world championships last month, made the introductory “Let’s Play Hockey” call at Tuesday’s Minnesota Wild game. She was the lone Eastview player named to the Class AA all-tournament team. • Eden Prairie won its third state championship and first since 2008 with a 3-2 overtime victory over Maple Grove in the Class AA title game Saturday night. Maple Grove defeated Hill-Murray 1-0 in the semifinals last Friday, giving the Pioneers their first loss of the season and ending their two-year reign as state champions.

Fans paying close attention at Saturday night’s state Class AA finals might have wondered why a Lakeville North assistant coach would be spotting for an Apple Valley gymnast. Or why that same coach would watch intently while an Eagan gymnast competed on floor exercise. It was all in a night’s work for Mick Ramboldt, whose influence is felt across several South Suburban Conference programs. For the last several years he has run Lakeville North’s gymnastics off-season program, which isn’t restricted to just North gymnasts. Apple Valley senior Sidney Bethke trained in that program the last six years with Ramboldt, and when Bethke qualified for the state meet in the allaround, it stood to reason that Ramboldt would be there to lend support – and spotting. That Eagan gymnast he was watching? It’s Ramboldt’s daughter Teagan, an eighth-grader who finished third on floor exercise in her first state meet. Until a few years ago Ramboldt was an assistant coach for his wife Jodi on the Eastview High School team. This season they coached for opposing teams because Jodi Ramboldt is an assistant at Eagan. “When we left Eastview, Jodi actually retired (from coaching) and I started coaching at Lakeville North,� Mick

Apple Valley’s Sidney Bethke finished 23rd in the Class AA all-around in what likely is her final gymnastics meet. She has a scholarship to play soccer at Bemidji State University. (Photo by Mike Shaughnessy) Ramboldt said. “That was when Milan (Mader, Lakeville’s legendary gymnastics and volleyball coach) was still there. I coached there two years, then got a teaching job in Chaska and coached three years at Chaska/Chanhassen.� He left teaching but continued to run the North off-season program. This season, current Panthers head coach Teri Homan asked Ramboldt to be an in-season assistant coach for the Panthers. “I didn’t want to coach because then I would miss some of Teagan’s meets,� he said. “So we made a deal that (on meet nights) I would coach vault, and if Teagan had a meet the same night I would leave

I’d miss her vault but watch her last three events.� Floor exercise was Teagan Ramboldt’s only event at the state meet, and she had to wait until the seventh of eight rotations to compete. She scored 9.65 to place third behind two seniors from East Ridge. “Teagan normally does all-around, but floor is her favorite event and it’s kind of easy for her, so she wasn’t worried at all,� her father said. “Sometimes it’s nicer to go at the end of the meet, when the judges have seen everyone else.� Bethke, Apple Valley’s lone state meet qualifier, finished 23rd in the allaround with 36.275 and

14A February 26, 2016 SUN THISWEEK - Apple Valley

COUNCIL, from 1A lican legislators also attended. Reform proposals have emerged from the Republican-controlled House as well as the DFLcontrolled Senate, said Rep. Tony Albright, RPrior Lake. The Met Council’s long-term planning blueprint, Thrive MSP 2040, is stoking much of the animosity toward the 16-member council and its professional staff, which have an annual budget of nearly $1 billion. The council’s “assault on local control” has reached a “watershed” with the 30-year document, said prominent Met Council critic Katherine Kersten, senior fellow at Center of the American Experiment, a conservative think tank. The council uses its dual role as “planning czar” and “funding gatekeeper” to pick winners and losers among the seven-county region’s 186 municipalities, Kersten said. “Local officials must acquiesce and fall into line because in too many cases they’re unable to object on behalf of their constituents for fear of retaliation,” Kersten said. Along with Thrive MSP 2040 the council has issued “system statements” that cities must use in writing their comprehensive-plan updates due in 2018, Kersten said. The Met Council is charged with signing off on cities’ plans. The council wants to impose principles that exceed its lawful authority, particularly in housing, said Kersten and Kim Crockett, vice president and senior policy fellow at the Center of the American Experiment. Thrive MSP 2040’s 140page housing plan is full of “top-down controls,” Kersten said. Burnsville, for example, already has plenty of affordable housing —

“something like 79 percent affordable to people who are at or below 80 percent of adjusted median income,” she said. “Nevertheless, the Met Council has assigned an affordable housing need of 266 (more) units to Burnsville, and about half of those must be affordable to very low-income families, about $25,000 income for a family of four.” Burnsville City Council Member Mary Sherry said her nearly fully built city can’t accommodate that volume of housing in the Minnesota River Quadrant, where most future development is expected to occur. “If we are expected to put more dense housing in, that is going to make it, sorry to say, even more affordable,” Sherry said. “This is affecting our schools. It’s a vicious circle. It’s not under our control. We want back our control.” Kersten said Thrive MSP 2040 pursues a ruinous agenda to “densify our region and impose transit-oriented development;” deplete road funding in favor of transit and increase traffic congestion; “push us out of our cars;” remake cities and neighborhoods with a “government-approved mix” of race, ethnicity and income; distort market forces and sap development outside the core cities of Minneapolis and St. Paul; and make it harder for people to travel to their jobs. “The objective is to redistribute wealth from the suburbs to the urban core in order to pay for all of this,” Kersten said. “Under the new plan, suburban residents will likely pay more in taxes but get less in infrastructure and in services.” The Met Council’s ambitions don’t end there, Kersten said. It says its mission extends to solving complex social problems like income inequality, the

educational achievement gap and climate change, she said. Thrive MSP 2040 is “an advanced symptom of the governance problem that we need to solve,” Crockett said. “The good news here is the Legislature can fix this, and the bad news is only the Legislature can fix this,” she said. The Met Council should be “unwound in an orderly fashion, much like AT & T was broken into Baby Bells.” The four-county Twin Cities’ Local Government Coalition has sent model resolutions to 186 cities, hoping for passage to fuel its efforts at the Capitol. In addition to seeking locally appointed council members, the group wants to stagger terms of members appointed by the governor so a new governor can’t immediately replace the chair and all 16 members. “What we saw as the key problem was the centralized control of the Met Council, that the governor holds all the cards,” Gerlach said. It’s not merely a partisan issue — even former Republican Gov. Tim Pawlenty vetoed a measure to adopt staggered terms, Gerlach said. The four counties are Dakota, Anoka, Carver and Scott. Other elected officials at the meeting included Dakota County commissioners Mary Liz Holberg, of Lakeville, and Liz Workman, of Burnsville; Rep. Drew Christensen, R-Burnsville; Sen. Dan Hall, R-Burnsville; Rep. Linda Runbeck, R-Circle Pines, chair of the House Subcommittee on Metropolitan Council Accountability and Transparency; and Savage Mayor Janet Williams.

Opinion

LETTERS, from 4A lief, teens need more sleep than younger children. It is teen biology that makes it difficult for them to fall asleep before 11 p.m. In our district, most teens get up around 5:30 a.m. to get to school, which leaves them in a constant state of sleep deprivation. One study of Twin Cities metro schools showed that starting school just half an hour later reduced student car crashes by 65 percent. Teachers reportedly enjoy having students who are alert and ready for learning, and in Edina, when parents were surveyed one year after the switch 92 percent of them preferred the later time. Depending on implementation, the change can result in earlier times for elementary students, and there may be initial additional transportation costs. However, the district’s own analysis shows they could move start times by half an hour with no added cost. Unlike many educational policy decisions, this one has long term effects on the safety and well-being of our children. Yet the board and administration have not led or educated on the matter. However, in January the administration sent some information to principals and asked for limited input from site councils. Neither the information nor the process was shared with parents. The superintendent will now write an

executive summary for the board, who will decide whether to further explore it. There is a lot of information available online, and it is worth looking at closely. And now is the time write or call your board, superintendent, principal and site council. LISA MORLEY Rosemount

Election will be interesting To the editor: The political letters regarding 2nd District candidates Angie Craig have been most interesting in their content. One day, in early January, upon answering the phone, I heard a gentleman ask me if I knew who Ms. Craig was. At that time, I had no clue. He informed me who she was. I have since read the papers a bit more closely. One is never too old to learn. The political process is indeed going to be very interesting this year. They already have a good start. With the slate of possible presidential contenders coupled with the death of Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia, the process is going to be wide open. PHYLLIS A. PETER Apple Valley

CAUCUS, from 1A to more than one candidate and not simply favor the candidate with the most money and highest name identification,� Downey said. On the Democratic Party side, most delegates will also be assigned according to the proportion of votes their candidates receive. However, superdelegates will be free to vote for whomever they like at the party’s national convention. In Minnesota, the superdelegates include Gov. Mark Dayton, DFL members of Congress and the U.S. Senate, the state party chair, vice chair, other Democratic National Convention members and “Distinguished Party Leader� Walter Mondale. Each party will select delegates based on the percentage of votes for each candidate by congressional district. They will also select some delegates based on the percentage of votes for each candidate statewide. Downey noted that in past years many Republican caucus attendees mistakenly thought their votes in the presidential straw poll determined the national delegates from Minnesota. “Now it’s actually true,� he said.

Turnout expectations Both state party leaders anticipate the robust debates this year will help prompt a strong voter turnout. “There’s a lot of excitement for both Secretary (of State Hillary) Clinton and Sen. (Bernie) Sanders in our party,� Martin said. “We expect there to be near-record turnout on Tuesday, March 1. The race around the country right now is very tight, and we happen to fall on Super Tuesday this year for the caucus.� For Democrats, Minnesota is the second largest state after Washington to hold a caucus and is therefore a large prize, Martin said. As for Republicans, Downey said, “The energy and excitement that we have seen in the states that have had their primary and caucus events so far indicate that we will have a lot of turnout. It’s a very close race and one where Minnesota gets a

chance to be a part of the Super Tuesday states that could very well swing the nomination one way or another. People are excited to have the caucuses be relevant in Minnesota, so we’re anticipating a big night.� In some years, Minnesota has been an island regarding the timing of its caucuses, Downey said. He and Martin met about a year ago to work out an agreement to hold this year’s caucuses March 1. “Lo and behold, it ended up being great for a lot of the other states’ calendars, too, because there’s 12 of us going on March 1,� Downey said. Many of the other states will conduct primaries, a system similar to a general election, but Minnesota leaders have supported maintaining the caucus system. Both major parties support caucuses because they allow ordinary people to have a say not only in the selection of candidates, but also in the election of officers and the party platform, according to Martin. “Primaries tend to support those candidates who have the most money and run a lot of glitzy commercials and send out a lot of mailers, but in a caucus system it’s much more grassroots,� Martin said. He added that the caucuses allow neighbors to gather together to debate issues of concern. “Minnesota’s caucus system provides an opportunity that most states do not have to show up at a precinct caucus room and have a direct say in who will actually nominate those candidates from each of the political parties,� Downey said. “On Super Tuesday, we’re right in the heart of one of the most exciting nights in determining who those candidates are.� Each of the party chairs said they have instructed people organizing the caucuses to prepare for big crowds. “I’ve said it’s better to be safe than sorry,� Martin said. “You never know how many people will show up.� Downey said he told precinct organizers to assume a turnout one-and-a-half to two times higher than the record. He noted he had heard stories from a past caucus in which people could not get into the parking

lot. “We’re hoping to avoid that,� Downey said. Caucus attendees will receive ballots with which to select their choice for the party’s presidential nominee. They may stay to participate in the rest of the party business but are not required to do so. The ballot process will end at 8 p.m. for each of the parties. “You can’t show up at 8:15 and expect to be able to vote,� Downey stressed. “Get there early.� Anyone who is eligible to vote by this year’s November general election may participate. Each person is limited to attending the caucus in his or her precinct. They must sign a statement that includes an address within the precinct and state that they generally agree with the principles of the party hosting the caucus. Although the parties run the caucuses, Minnesota Secretary of State Steve Simon has announced an official state precinct caucus finder to help Minnesotans determine where they should go to participate. The tool includes caucus locations provided by the DFL Party and the Republican Party of Minnesota. It is at caucusfinder.sos. state.mn.us. “Our vote is our voice, and I encourage all Minnesotans to go out and caucus on March 1 and make their voices heard,� Simon said. “This is an important election year in Minnesota and going to a caucus is a great way for Minnesotans to show support for their preferred candidates, raise an important issue, and meet people in their community.� The DFL Party includes information about its caucus at dfl.org while the Republican Party of Minnesota provides information at mngop.com. Some minor parties are also planning caucuses. Information about the Independence Party of Minnesota is at mnip.org. The Libertarian Party of Minnesota lists caucus details on its website, lpmn.org. The Green Party of Minnesota lists its caucuses at tinyurl.com/jcjgt6g. Contact Seth Rowe at seth. rowe@ecm-inc.com.

a financially sustainable program in our current facility,� Bradley wrote in an email to the newspaper. “We explored all the potential opportunities, but given the time frame, we did not have any financially feasible options.� Paideia officials said the staff and board are committed to ensuring that each student continues to receive a highquality education through the end of the school year, and staff will be coordinating with families and their new schools of choice to support students’ transitions. School Director Marci Levy-Maguire wrote in Paideia’s newsletter that the school is working on communications, planning events and gathering information to help ease the students’ transition. She wrote that last Thursday the school’s advisers met with students to discuss the closing. Levy-Maguire said she could not have been more proud of the students on the day they were informed the Apple Valley school would close. “For many of them, their biggest concern was about the staff and where we would be working next year,� she wrote in a message to parents. “A number of them asked if we could join them at their new schools.� Paideia currently has a staff of 47 people, according to its website. Levy-Maguire described the week when the announcement was made as a hard one. “During the past few days, we have all experienced a wide variety of emotions even as we have continued to support your children to share and understand their own feelings,� Levy-Maguire wrote. “I know that there is a strong sense of sadness around our school closing, and I hope that we can continue to work together to support all of our staff, students, and families through this transition.� In making the announcement, school officials said an- Email Tad Johnson at other impact that led to the tad.johnson@ecm-inc.com.

hunting for a

proval of additional bond and operating levy funds for area school districts to help bolster their programs in similar areas in which Paideia strove to be unique in – arts and music programs, language offerings and gifted education programs. “Paideia’s successes have certainly impacted the academic programming of local districts, which expanded their arts and music programs, language offerings and gifted education programs,� the release said. Since 2005, Paideia has offered a modified year-round calendar, K-8 Spanish program, Latin instruction in fifth through eighth grades, a classical studies program, and strong music and art programs in addition to a school uniform policy. The ways in which Paideia strove to be different have become “the new standard� for area districts, the release said. The school receives less state funding per pupil than surrounding districts, the press release said. Charter schools do not have the ability to seek voter approval for a school-proposed operating levy or bond. Nearly all of the state’s public school districts receive voter-approved funds to supplement the state’s per-pupil funding allotment, which is $5,982 for 2016. Paideia officials said they were proud to have graduated seven classes of eighth-graders during the past decade, and will be celebrating their eighth and final graduating class with a ceremony on June 9. They said they were thankful for the support the school has received from local elected officials, community members, and business owners throughout the school’s years of existence. “The decision to close was extremely difficult,� Bradley said. “Many people in our community were diligently working to try and make the necessary changes needed to make Paideia strong again. I was very disappointed to see this great school close.�

Thisweekend Murder mystery comes to Steeple Center stage

Chorale hosts ‘Cabaret’ event

Front Porch Players present ‘The Mousetrap’ by Andrew Miller SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

if you don’t, you know the name.� The cast of the Front Porch Players production includes April Bailey, Brian Broszko, Alan Davis, Dave Hefferman, Ginny Leutgeb, Jeny Stevens, Andrew Troth and Kaleb Wick. The set for “The Mousetrap� — featuring two large bay windows and a fireplace — was under construction this week, with the Second Act Players, the arts council’s theater group for adults 50 and older, serving as the primary volunteers. Reed said the Front Porch Players’s aim is to stage two full productions, along with two smaller melodrama productions, each year at the Steeple Center. A follow-up production to “The Mousetrap� is tentatively planned for fall 2016. Tickets for “The Mousetrap� are $14 and can be purchased on the Rosemount Area Arts Council website, www. rosemountarts.com. Show times are 7 p.m. March 4-5 and 11-12, and 2 p.m. March 6 and 13.

The Front Porch Players are making their return to Rosemount’s Steeple Center next month with a classic Agatha Christie whodunit. The theater group, sponsored by the Rosemount Area Arts Council, made its debut in the summer of 2014 with the Neil Simon play “Barefoot in the Park.� It was the first and, until now, only production the Front Porch Players were able to stage at the Steeple Center because of construction of an addition to the historic venue, which the troupe considers its home site. With the Steeple Center operational again, the Front Porch Players are set to present the murder mystery “The Mousetrap� March 4-13.
