District Newsletter For the second consecutive year, Minnesota school districts are faced with the very real possibility of no increase in the basic aid revenue formula for schools. This is a serious matter for all Minnesota public schools as the basic aid formula represents approximately two-thirds of most school districts’ revenue. The freeze in basic aid is the direct result of the State of Minnesota’s anticipated budget deficit. The end of the federal stimulus funds that were used the last several years to backfill for the lack of state revenues is also adding to the growing concern that the financial support for our current students is inadequate and not on par with the level of support that has been provided to past students. School districts around the State will respond differently to this issue due to factors that can vary from one district to the next. Examples of these factors include such things as the amount of the district’s current and anticipated fund balance, the presence of additional revenue sources such as operating referendums, the cost of contracted services with non-district vendors, and the cost of negotiated agreements with employee bargaining units. These variable factors will also determine the amount and timing of the program reductions and program eliminations that will inevitably be needed if revenue increases do not keep pace with increasing costs. A number of school districts, including some in our area, are in the position of having to make significant program reductions already this spring. Many of these schools have smaller fund balance reserves and do not have the ability to withstand even a temporary revenue set-back without risking cash-flow problems during the coming school year, or even the real possibility of a negative fund balance leading to statutory operating debt. The lack of an adequate fund balance, combined with an on-going decline of revenue-generating student enrollment in some districts, has created an immediate crisis for them that has required an immediate response. While the St. Clair Public School is not immune from these issues, our current fund balance bolstered somewhat by our operating referendum, a slightly higher than anticipated student enrollment, capped health-care costs, an understanding and reasonable response from several of our vendors, and the carry-over of most of our Federal Jobs for Education revenue into next year, has allowed us to buy a little time and avoid the dismantling of programs needed for student success. If the dwindling of the State’s financial commitment to students continues, the School District’s response a year from now will have to be different. Programs and support that our students need will be at risk. Your assistance in encouraging the State of Minnesota to find a way to live up to its constitutional obligation to provide our young people with a “thorough and efficient system of public schools” would be greatly appreciated.

For the second consecutive year, Minnesota school districts are faced with the very real possibility of no increase in the basic aid revenue formula for schools. This is a serious matter for all Minnesota public schools as the basic aid formula represents approximately two-thirds of most school districts’ revenue. The freeze in basic aid is the direct result of the State of Minnesota’s anticipated budget deficit. The end of the federal stimulus funds that were used the last several years to backfill for the lack of state revenues is also adding to the growing concern that the financial support for our current students is inadequate and not on par with the level of support that has been provided to past students.

School districts around the State will respond differently to this issue due to factors that can vary from one district to the next. Examples of these factors include such things as the amount of the district’s current and anticipated fund balance, the presence of additional revenue sources such as operating referendums, the cost of contracted services with non-district vendors, and the cost of negotiated agreements with employee bargaining units.

These variable factors will also determine the amount and timing of the program reductions and program eliminations that will inevitably be needed if revenue increases do not keep pace with increasing costs. A number of school districts, including some in our area, are in the position of having to make significant program reductions already this spring. Many of these schools have smaller fund balance reserves and do not have the ability to withstand even a temporary revenue set-back without risking cash-flow problems during the coming school year, or even the real possibility of a negative fund balance leading to statutory operating debt. The lack of an adequate fund balance, combined with an on-going decline of revenue-generating student enrollment in some districts, has created an immediate crisis for them that has required an immediate response.

While the St. Clair Public School is not immune from these issues, our current fund balance bolstered somewhat by our operating referendum, a slightly higher than anticipated student enrollment, capped health-care costs, an understanding and reasonable response from several of our vendors, and the carry-over of most of our Federal Jobs for Education revenue into next year, has allowed us to buy a little time and avoid the dismantling of programs needed for student success.

If the dwindling of the State’s financial commitment to students continues, the School District’s response a year from now will have to be different. Programs and support that our students need will be at risk. Your assistance in encouraging the State of Minnesota to find a way to live up to its constitutional obligation to provide our young people with a “thorough and efficient system of public schools” would be greatly appreciated.

St. Clair College in School (CIS) Anatomy & Physiology class took first place at the University of Minnesota CIS Field Day Kiosk competition on Monday, April 18. Students competed against schools such as Eagan, Faribault, Hopkins, Shakopee, Brooklyn Center, and Richfield to name a few. Our winning team consisted of Megan Beetch, Dani Hiller, Nicole Dorn, and Julie Raquet.

Students had to construct a kiosk to educate the public on diabetes and atherosclerosis (a progressive disease of plaque buildup in the arteries) and how it relates to the western diet (and how unhealthy Americans are). Their kiosk consisted of healthy recipes, pamphlets on diabetes and atherosclerosis, they incorporated a video they made on the western diet (then vs. now) in which they interviewed grandparents to determine if Americans ate healthier in the old days as compared to now. Their kiosk also had a quiz for people in which they had to choose which snacks were healthier. In addition, they compared different beverages (water, pop, Gatorade, ice tea, etc) and the amount of sugar each contained.

Kiosks were judged by all the CIS teachers along with several U of M professors. The first place winners received the Golden Femur Award, a traveling trophy issued to the top team each year. Eagan school won the second place Silver Scapula and the third place Bronze Ulna went to Wabasha-Kellogg.

The University of Minnesota CIS is a partnership program between the University and high school teachers and administrators. Students have an opportunity to gain firsthand experience with a faster pace of study and an increased academic rigor while earning university credits.

Congratulations to our students and their instructor, Mrs. Ruhland!

On Saturday, April 16th, 2011, St. Clair Concert Choir members took part in an educational collaborative workshop with the professional vocal ensemble, From Age to Age.

Students met and worked with the From Age to Age (FATA) choir for a Saturday afternoon workshop led by FATA founder and artistic director, Andrew Miller, to work up 2 music selections which they were later able to perform with FATA at the evening concert at Good Counsel Chapel.

Our students are so fortunate to have this opportunity with this group, which part of its mission being to bring quality choral music into the out-state/rural areas of MN. The students learned a lot about diction, sound production, and tone quality which they in turn can bring back to the other students in the choir.

The performance was an amazing experience for the participants, and they hope to have the opportunity to work with FATA again in the future.

The following students participated in the event: Jeremy Baxter, Emily Darveaux, Andrew Grabowska, Karissa Huxford, Rachel Levine, Andrew Meyer, Samantha Minter, Danielle Petersen, Allie Thooft, & Caitlyn Wakefield.

MY OH MY; MAY IS HERE! May  always  seems  hectic  around  the  counseling  office. Along  with  flowers  and  showers, May  also  brings  NWEA  MAP testing and the final month of school! There is a lot to get done in a short amount of time; I plan to finish meeting with 8th and 10th graders about their EXPLORE and PLAN results, meet with seniors to check in about finalization of after graduation plans, 

do grade checks for students trying to stay on track and meet with students who  are  struggling with  personal  social  issues  at  home  or  at  school. With all of this going on and only a month left to do it in, the counseling schedule looks  pretty  crazy! My message  board  comes  in  very  handy  in  times  like  this when  I  am  not  usually  available  for  on  the  spot meetings.  Students  use my message board to let me know they need to see me and then I find them as soon as I can. 

  This  year, May  also brings  an end  to having Kelly Ann  as  a  counseling intern  once  a week.  She  is  a  student  from MSU working  toward  her Masters Degree in Professional School Counseling. For her, school is done in May, so April was her  last month with us. Kelly Ann was able to help St. Clair  through  the  PICE  grant,  which  focuses  on  getting students  prepared  for  life  after  high  school.  She  helped meet St. Clair’s needs by setting up individual appointments with students to talk about their after high school plans. I am happy  to  say  she will be back  again next  year  to  fulfill one more  year  of  this  internship!  She  is  a  great  resource  and  I could never  thank her enough  for all  that  she did  this  year. She met with many of our students and she has said numerous times that she looks forward to seeing them again next year! 

  School isn’t the only hectic place in May! At your house, May is probably a pretty busy  time  too. Families are preparing  to wrap up  the school year and planning  for  summer  activities.  I  encourage  everyone,  as  I  have many  times before,  to  put  some  time  aside  for  volunteering  and  community  service.  A wonderful teaching tool for the youth in our area is seeing others volunteer and volunteering themselves for the greater good of society. It gives a feeling of self 

satisfaction  and  it  strengthens  family  bonds  in  the process!  If  you  want  ideas  about  volunteering,  the Greater  Mankato  Area  United  Way  has  a  website which can help you find a volunteer opportunity that matches  your  interests.  Just  go   to www.mankatounitedway.org and click VOLUNTEER.  If everyone  participated  in  one  volunteer  activity  each month  throughout  the  summer  just  think  of  the difference that could be made! 

  I am glad to see May is upon us and I know it will pass us by in the blink of an eye. As I check things off of my “end of the year list” I know each family will have their own  list to complete. Best of  luck  in all that you take on this May!  I hope  everyone  gets  a  burst  of  energy  from  the  nicer weather  and  the  spring blooms!

Arena. The TEAM Cyclones held a “Twins Opener” pep fest on Friday, April 8. Students had put in positive

reward tickets to enter a drawing for Twins stocking caps, baseballs, and toys which had been donated by the Minnesota Twins team. Then the “Twins Trivia” game winners were announced and more prizes awarded.

April is MCA testing month; May will include NWEA and DIBELS testing. With warmer weather, students are enjoying the outside recess! Spring field trips:

April 29 – kindergarten – Children’s Museum May 6 – second grade – Minnesota Zoo May 17 – third grade – Science Museum May 18 – first grade – Como Zoo

High School Principal’s Report All students except for next year’s 7th grade are registered and the master schedule is complete. We

will send registration forms home in May and also have the students shadow current 7th grade students during the month of May.

We have 8 students signed up for the Health Academy and 3 for the Agri. Science Academy

MCA II testing has started and will continue through the next two weeks, and then the NWEA testing will start.

Superintendent’s Report The “Minnesota and the New Normal” presentation was held on March 29th with an ice cream social

that followed the presentation. There were approximately 75-80 people in attendance. Thanks to Education Minnesota – St. Clair for providing and serving the ice cream and to the people who helped plan and set-up for the event.

Our current transportation contract with Palmer Bus Service includes a 1.8% increase based on the Consumer Price Index for the coming 2011-2012 school year. Recognizing the tough financial challenges faced by school districts, Mr. Palmer has informed us that he will be providing transportation services for the school district for next year at NO increase.

Dan Ireland has announced his resignation as the head boys basketball coach. The time demands of his coaching duties and his regular job are getting difficult to manage. Dan has done a great job for us and he will be missed. Brad O’Donnell will be starting the process of hiring a new head coach soon so that we have someone on board who can assist the players during the summer basketball leagues that many participate in.

We will be bringing in some additional substitute custodial/maintenance help while a couple of our

full time people are on temporary leave. Spring is a very busy time with higher demands on the existing crew. There is a great deal of additional outdoor work at this time of year in addition to the preparations for special events in the school and the planning for the summer cleaning and maintenance projects.

Estimates for two sound and light booth options in the small gym have been received. One option would include using portions of the existing band and choir practice rooms to house the equipment with a window and access door cut into the existing north wall of the gym. The estimated cost for this option is $9843.00. The other option is to construct a separate room along the north wall seating section in the small gym itself. The estimated cost for this option is $6356. No recommendation to proceed is being made at this time. Additional consideration is needed, including the possible budget expenditure priorities for roof repairs/replacements, floor repairs in the small gym, and corrections identified as part of the energy conservation/retro-commissioning project.

The floor in the small gym continues to present problems. The flooring is pulling apart and leaving large gaps between boards. This had been occurring in along the edges of the floor next to the walls, but it is now occurring in open areas on the main floor. We will need to address this concern this summer to avoid having it become a more serious safety issue.

Board Reports

Connie Johns reported on the city council meeting; Permanent berm being planned for treatment plant; St. Clair Days being planned, volunteers needed.

Lisa Johnson reported on Athletic Backers meeting; Ongoing efforts including fundraising for finishing the track.

Jack May reported on the April 12th MVED meeting; Much enthusiasm for the Ag and Health Care academies being organized for next year.

Open Forum None The next regular meeting is scheduled for Monday, May 23, 2011 at 6:30 p.m. in room E107. Motion by Jim Grabowska, seconded by Jack May, to adjourn. Motion carried with all in favor. Meeting adjourned at 7:42 p.m.
