Canton R-V Schools have been accred- ited “with distinction” for seven consecutive years by the State of Missouri. After his speech, the Governor asked Canton bas- ketball player Austin Hoewing to shoot a few baskets with him. In his State of the State speech given on Jan. 28, the Governor had called for $100 million in additional funding for K-12 classrooms, and a four percent increase of $34 million for col- leges and universities. The Gov- ernor’s budget also includes funding to expand the A+ Governor Nixon Visits Canton School Schools program statewide. An additional $17 million is pro- posed for early childhood edu- cation. Nixon visited the Early Childhood classroom before he spoke to students and teachers in the Canton gym. During his visit, Nixon said that “As a result of our relent- less focus on fiscal discipline and job creation, businesses re hiring, our economy is grow- ing, and unemployment has dropped to a four year low. As we continue to balance the budget and make government more efficient, we now have an opportunity to make smart, strategic investments in educa- tion that will expand opportu- nities for students and strength- en our economy for years to come.” “Early childhood education is proven to boost achievement in school and improve oppor- tunities later in life, a smart investment with a big return,” Gov. Nixon said. “These addi- tional funds will help that every young child in our state comes to school ready to learn and ready to succeed.” In a press release from the Governor’s office, the more than $100 million in additional funding for K-12 classrooms will help to train more teach- ers, modernize classrooms and extend Missouri’s school year. Under Gov. Nixon’s proposal, Missouri’s school year will be extended to the national aver- age of at least 180 days. After his speech, Nixon invited Canton basketball team mem- ber Austin Hoewing to come down on court and shoot a few baskets with him. The Gov- ernor attempted several free throw shots that were close, but not through the hoop. Hoewing showed the Governor why his team is undefeated by sinking his first shot to the applause of the student body. The Governor seemed to enjoy challenging Hoewing and applauded and smiled when Austin made his first shot. Nixon spoke with Hoewing for several minutes and autographed the basketball and presented it to Austin. For the record, the Governor did make a couple of baskets. In an interview with the Gov- ernor after his speech, he was asked how parents and students can feel safe at school, with so many shootings happening across the country. Nixon said that by continuing to fund edu- cation, provide more funding and education for mental health disabilities and awareness, con- tinue to provide more training to law enforcement, teachers, students and work as a com- munity and state to protect our children together, He said he is not in favor of teachers be- ing armed.

Lewis County C-1 Schools held School In-truder Response training presented by Strategos for teachers, administra-tors, bus drivers, school personnel and area law enforcement members. The training occurred on Jan.30.

The Lewis County Sheriff’s Offi cer, Mis-souri State Highway Patrol, Canton Police Department and sev-eral members of the La-Grange Police Depart-ment attended the train-ing. LaGrange Police Sargent Don Cibert said the training is important for law enforcement and school personnel to be on the same page, so that each group is trained on how to react and re-spond in a crisis situ-

ation and so that each group also knows what to expect from each oth-er and also how they can help each other. Several scenarios were present-ed and an active shooter scenario was simulated with teachers and law enforcement participat-ing.

Highland Elemen-tary assistant principal Sue Ann Gaus, said the training was very infor-mative and school per-sonnel are now taught to have an active response to an intruder. Teachers are the fi rst responders on scene and were given the information needed to fi ght back and deter an intruder.

They are trained to take any “pop” sound seriously, because in many other shooting situations, peo-ple have heard a “pop” like a balloon bursting, when it is really gunfi re they are hearing. The staff learned how to tie doors shut, barricade themselves with their students and how to take active measures if an in-truder enters the school. They also learned how law enforcement will respond to an active in-truder and how they can assist.

Canton R-V School District will host the presentation at the end of February. School is not in session during the training.

Allen will serve on the ARC board for the local blood region.

This program was implemented in 2007 by the American Red Cross, the NAIA and State Farm Insurance. The name of the scholarship is the.

The Culver-Stockton Col-lege Student Financial Ser-vices Offi ce is hosting a series of FAFSA assistance nights throughout the months of Feb-ruary and March. The goal of these events is to assist stu-dents in correctly fi lling out the application within the pri-ority dates to assure students receive the maximum amount of fi nancial aid.

These are community service events and are free and open to the public. Parents, college students and high school stu-dents planning to attend any college are encouraged to at-tend. Members of the Culver-Stockton Student Financial

Food, clothing, shelter, trans-portation…and so much more are products of agriculture. Join Missouri Farm Bureau and the 113 county Farm Bureau orga-nizations across the state, Febru-ary 10-16, as we pay tribute to Missouri’s farmers and ranchers with a variety of Thank a Farmer Week activities.

The Missouri Farm Bureau Thank a Farmer Week allows us to pause and be reminded of the efforts of farmers and why their work is important to all of us.

Today’s farmers grow more food and do it with fewer resourc-es than any time in history. Con-sumer demands have changed over time, but farmers meet those needs by providing an increas-ing variety of goods. According to the United States Department of Agriculture’s Economic Re-search Service, technology and innovations in agriculture al-low one U.S. farmer to provide enough food and fi ber for 154 people around the world.

Even amidst the current grow-your-own environment, most people have little contact with the source of their food supply. Most consumers rely on others to produce some or all of what is needed. Statistics show farm families make up about 2 percent of the U.S. population, yet they provide for themselves and the other 98 percent.

Grocery shelves are fi lled with

C-SC Financial Services Office to host a series of FAFSA assistance nights

Thank a Farmer Weekan overwhelming number of food product choices. On average, nearly 40,000 different items ap-pear in most shopping establish-ments. Restaurant menus boast a variety of items from which to choose. However, many people fail to connect the dots to real-ize farmers are the source of their supply of food, says Michele Munzlinger, Lewis County FB President.

Farmers provide an abundant, affordable and healthy food sup-ply. Consumers in the U. S. spend less than 10 percent of their dis-posable income on food, based on USDA fi gures. That amount is less than any country in the world.

Other items we use daily come from agriculture. Whether it is personal care products, medi-cal items, school supplies, print-ed materials, sports equipment, manufacturing or construction, agricultural products are in the mix. “Seldom do we stop and ask ourselves, ‘where did this come from?’ says Ms. Munzlinger. “Farmers and what they provide should not be taken for granted”.

Agriculture is an important part of Lewis County’s economy. Farm businesses give back to the community in many ways while they produce food and fi ber for the world. So, join the Lewis County Farm Bureau as we pause to ‘Thank a Farmer’ for a job well done during our special promo-tion February 10-16.

Air Force Airman Travis J. Rossmiller graduated from basic military training at Lackland Air Force Base, San Antonio, Texas.

The airman completed an intensive, eight-week program that included training in military discipline and studies, Air Force core values, physical fi tness, and basic warfare principles and skills.

Airmen who complete basic training earn four credits toward an associate in applied science degree through the Community College of the Air Force.

Rossmiller is the son of Angie Boyer of LaGrange, Mo., and Richard Rossmiller of Liberty, Ill.

He is a 2012 graduate of Liberty High School, Ill.

This spring, the Shelter Insur-ance® Foundation will award a $2000 scholarship to a gradu-ate of Canton R-V and High-land High School. Shelter Agent Richard Horner sponsors and partially funds this scholarship.

A committee of local high school offi cials and community leaders will select the local re-cipient. The committee will con-sider each applicant’s scholastic achievements, educational goals, citizenship, moral character and participation and leadership in school and community activities. The scholarship is given without regard to race, disability, reli-gion, national origin or gender of applicants. The name of the re-cipient will be announced at the close of the school year.

The student may apply the scholarship funds toward tuition, fees, or campus housing for any course of study beginning the fall after the recipient’s high school graduation and leading to an aca-

Culver-Stockton College is expanding its curriculum to offer an online Master of Business Administration (MBA). To celebrate and pro-vide more information to the public, there was a launch party Feb. 6, at the Pier Res-taurant in Quincy from 5:15 p.m. to 7 p.m. For those un-able to attend the launch, a live stream of the event will be available via culver.edu/mbastream.

Culver-Stockton’s online MBA program is unique to the area due to the three spe-cialized degree tracks offered. Along with a specialization in management, C-SC is also offering a specialization in accounting and fi nance and a dual-track, double degree Master of Business Adminis-tration/Master of Science in Nursing (MBA/MSN) offered in partnership with Blessing-Rieman College of Nursing.

“One of the primary reasons we chose to launch an MBA was in response to accounting graduates interested in fulfi ll-ing the 150-hour requirement for the CPA” stated Dr. Dell Ann Janney, chair of the MBA Program and associate dean of experiential education. The MBA with an account-ing & fi nance specialization provides the accounting ma-jor undergraduate with better preparation and the additional hours required to sit for the

demic degree at any accredited college or university. The Foun-dation makes payment directly to the school the recipient selects.

Applications and additional in-formation about the Shelter Foun-dation Scholarship will be avail-able in early March and should be completed and returned to the school offi cial serving on the se-lection committee by March 31. For more information, interested seniors should contact their high school counselor or principal or Shelter Insurance Agent Ri chard Horner.

The Shelter Insurance® Foun-dation is a not-for-profi t corpora-tion for charitable and education-al purposes. It is sponsored by the Shelter Insurance Companies – offering auto, home, life, farm and business insurance services to customers in 14 states via a network of local insurance agents and headquartered in Columbia, Missouri.

Services offi ce will be on hand to answer questions and assist in the fi ling of the Free Appli-cation for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA).

These events will be held at Elsberry High School, Com-puter Lab, on Feb. 13 from 5:30 p.m. -7:30 p.m.; at High-land High School, Computer Room, on Feb.20 from 4 p.m.-7 p.m. and on March 7 from 4 p.m. -7 p.m.; at Canton High School, Library, on March 5 from 5 p.m.- 7p.m.; and also at Culver-Stockton College, Her-rick Foundation Center, Room 208, on March 14 from 4p.m. -7 p.m.

Those attending are encour-

Uniform CPA Examination. “It can also be very fi nancially rewarding. Research shows that a CPA can earn nearly $1 million more than a non-certifi ed accountant over a lifetime,” stated Janney. Ac-cording to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), em-ployment of accountants and auditors is anticipated to grow faster than all occupations tracked by the Bureau. The BLS identifi es the best pros-pects are for those “who have a college degree and profes-sional certifi cation, especially a CPA.”

Earning an advanced de-gree is an important safeguard against a tough economy. “The job market demand continues to be strong for MBA gradu-ates in general. The Corporate Recruiters Survey found that 70 percent of recruiters are looking for prospective em-ployees possessing an MBA. The C-SC online MBA Pro-gram provides both afford-ability and fl exibility in pur-suing an MBA,” says Janney. The MBA with a Management specialization is designed to provide a comprehensive pro-gram for business leaders. The dual MBA/MSN is the only program of this type in the area for health care adminis-trators.

Class sizes in this new pro-gram will be small to allow for personalized attention from C-

Other necessary documents needed to complete the FAF-SA include: all 2012 tax forms and W2s for parents and stu-dent; current balances of cash, saving and checking accounts; and net worth of investments for both student and parent.

Those planning to attend are encouraged, but not required, to RSVP by phone at (573) 288-6307, or by e-mailing fi [email protected].

SC’s highly-credentialed pro-fessors, and a limited number of openings in the MBA Pro-gram will be available. There has already been much antici-pation for this program and C-SC alumna, Caly Cramsey, plans to enroll. “I am excited to have the opportunity to pur-sue my MBA online at C-SC while continuing to work full-time. I know the program will offer me a challenging cur-riculum combined with the convenience and fl exibility of an online program,” said Cramsey.

The C-SC MBA program begins fall 2013. All courses will be offered complete-ly online, with fi ve 8-week sessions starting in the fall and continuing year-round through the summer. A busi-ness degree is not mandatory for acceptance in the program, though there are some under-graduate prerequisites neces-sary for admission. Students are able to complete these re-quired courses online through the Culver-Stockton College Connected Campus Program. The MBA program has a fee, but the fee will be waived for any applications received by Thursday, February 14, 2013.

The C-SC Mock Trial Team took to the road Jan. 18-19 to compete in the Mid-Missouri Mock Trial Invitational held at the University of Missouri Law School. Twenty-two teams competed in a four-round tune up to the Regional Tournament to be held in Kansas City in two weeks. C-SC fi nished tied for sixth place and received an Invitational Honorable Mention, the fi rst one in the history of the C-SC Mock Trial program.

Mockers were also awarded 3 individual performance honors. Sarah Bouldin, senior legal studies major from Troy, Mo., won an outstanding witness award for her portrayal of the plaintiff, Andy Allen. Mark Boatman, senior criminal justice major from Wyaconda, Mo., also captured an

outstanding witness award for playing Reggie Rogers, a dive master who is one of the defense experts. Dylan Gauldin, junior legal studies major from O’Fallon, Mo., scored a perfect 20 points to win the outstanding attorney plaque on the plaintiff side of the case. A perfect score of 20 is rarely achieved because it requires that both judges in both plaintiff rounds scored you as the best attorney. Mock Trial Coach Judy Abbott commented, “What you don’t know about that perfect 20 is that Dylan Gauldin just stepped into this attorney role last Monday when our plaintiff closer resigned at the last minute. Dylan had only 4 days to prepare, but he certainly hit that ball out of the park. The whole team is so grateful that he could

step in, pick up that role at the last minute, and lead them to their stunning 5-3 victory.”

Other last minute substitutions brought about by the sudden illness of a team member on the way to the tournament challenged the team to further juggle their roster. Brand new team member Ian Hoffman, freshman individualized political science major from Mundelein, Ill. picked up the role of Frankie Fernandez and Chelsea Hoffman, junior individualized major from Canton, Mo., was able to step up and take over the part of the defendant. Both did well in those roles to help their team win those rounds.

David Carrothers, senior lecturer in criminal justice, accompanied Coach Abbott and the team. He watched as the

team faced some serious last minute challenges to their roster.

All of these last minute changes did not deter the C-SC team from fi nishing 5-3, defeating Wheaton College, Northwest Missouri State and Washburn College. The team only dropped one round by a scant 4 points to University of Missouri- Columbia. C-SC mockers take to the road in two weeks to compete in the 2013 AMTA Regional Tournament in Kansas City at the University of Missouri-Kansas City Law School. That tournament will decide who advances to the National Tournament in Memphis, Tenn.

For more information, contact Heidi Lanier at 573-288-6312 or at [email protected].

Missouri Western State University announced the names of the students se-lected to the Dean’s Hon-or Roll for the fall 2012. Students who have 12 hours or more for graded credit and have earned a

Missouri Western Dean’s Listgrade point average of 3.5 or better qualify for the honor.

The local Missouri Western student selected was: Matthew Dochter-man of Canton, Mo.

Both county teams saw sports action over the week. Canton participated in the LaPlata Tournament and Highland played against Mark Twain and also celebrated Pink Night at home.

TEN RIVERS CHAPTER of LEWIS COUNTY

10th ANNUAL PHEASANTS FOREVER BANQUET

Th e Ten Rivers Chapter of Pheasants Forever

(PF) in Lewis County, MO will be hosting its

10th annual fund raising banquet on...

Feb. 23rd at the Caldwell Building, 1.5 miles west of Canton on Hwy 16.

Th e event will feature live and silent auctions, raffl es, and games featuring

some of the fi nest wildlife art, guns, and outdoor merchandise, much of

which is exclusive to Pheasants Forever banquets.

Doors will open at 5:30 pm. and there will be a 16 oz. ribeye dinner with sides served to your table starting at 6:30 pm.

Th is banquet is one of the largest banquets of any wildlife organization in

the area.

100% of the proceeds from this event will be used to restore valuable wildlife

habitat, promote conservation education, and support youth organizations

in and around Lewis County. No other national conservation in America

has the power to spend 100% of its money in the community where it was

raised. Th at local control has allowed the Ten Rivers chapter to spend tens of

thousands of dollars towards its mission in Lewis County alone!

No other organization in Lewis County does more for wildlife habitat and

conservation education than the Ten Rivers Chapter of Pheasants Forever.

Nationally, Pheasants Forever and Quail Forever, are the fastest growing

conservation organizations in America. Very few organizations are as fi s-

cally responsible as Pheasants Forever. With 90% of its national revenue put

directly into its mission, PF ranks in the top 5% of all charities in America,

according to Charity Navigator.

The board adopted a no U-Turn Policy for the City of Canton Police Offi cers. The policy states Police Offi -cers will not perform a U-turn on state roads, highways, and interstates except when operating with lights and sirens activated.

Gov-Teller will provide the City an option for ac-cepting credit and debit payments without the City ab-sorbing the fees for the use of these cards. The fees will be charged directly to the consumer before they agree to make a payment using their debit or credit card. Gov-Teller will replace the current system in place through First Data. Phillips recommended the City not accept American Express Cards or participate in the voice rec-ognition feature at this time.

Phillips explained to members of the Board that the City of Canton has acquired the Canton Motel property, located at 406 College Street, and will proceed to sell it by sealed bid. The sale contract for the property will include a 15 day deadline for a written plan for the prop-erty. Any portion of the written plan for renovation will need to be carried out within 180 days of the closing of the sale of the property. Execution of any demolition will be required to be completed within 90 days of the closing of the sale of the property. A notice to bidders will be advertised.

It was approved to adopt the policy that the City of Canton maintain two months of operational expenses in reserves for the General Fund. Wolf seconded and the motion carried.

Police Committee met and discussed the seat belt and child restraint City Ordinances. The committee agreed to update the City’s ordinance to match the State of Mis-souri laws regarding seat belts and child restraint laws. It was approved to update the City Ordinance to the current State standards for enforcement of seat belt and child restraint laws.

The ordinance requiring fences around swimming pools was discussed and the committee requested fenc-ing only be required around in-ground swimming pools. No action was taken.

The committee also discussed Missouri State Law that holds the owner of the property or the individual responsible for the property responsible for under-age drinking. This is pertinent information for Culver-Stockton College students. A Fraternity President could be arrested for supplying alcohol to a minor if underage drinking occurs on the premises of the Fraternity House. It was suggested to meet with Culver-Stockton offi cials and make sure they are aware of this law.

Public Works met and discussed progress on the fi ve-year plan. The new water main along Grant Street has been laid. Residential connections will be completed as weather permits. Public Works is currently installing a new water main between Jefferson and Green to in-crease water volume for the trailer court. Tom Niemann recently purchased the trailer court and will be install-ing individual meters for each trailer. Public works also discussed grading alleys and all alleys will be graded three times a year.

The North East Missouri Solid Waste District is ac-cepting another round of grant applications. The recy-cling program would like to submit another application for enhancements to the current facility and items to in-crease collection of material. The grant would request trailers to be placed in town for businesses to put their cardboard in and funds to have electricity put in the building. The Board approved submitting an application for the grant.

Austin Barnes, son of Angela Barnes and grand-son of Karen Miller of Knox City, gave a verbal commitment to Eastern Michigan University to assume Punting responsi-bilities as a freshman.

Austin Barnes, a se-nior punter and kicker for Panthers of O’Fallon Illinois Township High School was the St. Louis Post’s 1st Team All Met-ro Punter and Belleville News-Democrat’s fi rst-team All-Area punter after averaging 44.86 yards on 28 punts. He also had four fi eld goals and 36 extra-points for the Panthers, earning plenty of recruit-ing attention.

“Barnes had a lot of preferred walk-on oppor-tunities at some really big schools, but I don’t think he wanted to run the risk of that, because you nev-er know what’s going to happen,” coach Joggerst (O’Fallon High School Head Football Coach) said of Barnes, who had preferred walk-on offers from Alabama, Miami and Minnesota. “Instead, he chose a scholarship of-

fer from Eastern Michi-gan, which plays in the Mid-America Confer-ence. Other D1 offers came from Florida Atlan-tic University, Southeast Missouri, Texas Southern University, Dayton and Alabama State.

Barnes didn’t want to run the risk of waiting, be-cause schools are only tak-ing one kicker and most of them are not taking any,” coach Joggerst said. “It’s 100 percent paid for and that’s hard to pass up.” Joggerst said Barnes (6-0, 185) will start as the Freshman Punter and have an opportunity to compete to handle kickoff duties as well. Eastern Michigan University games will be aired on ESPN.

The O’Fallon kicker also helped thousands of canned goods get donated to the area food pantry. Thanks to the kicking of the O’Fallon Town-ship High School student, more than 3,700 canned goods were donated. The senior kicker/punter orga-nized Kickin’ It for Cans, a campaign to encourage

metro-east businesses, school groups and others to donate cans for every successful kick he made during the

regular football season. Barnes right foot landed 32 successful kicks and netted a donation of 3,756 cans and a $250 check. Kickin’ It for Cans in-spired a high school bas-ketball player in Indiana to also do something simi-lar.

Barnes has a list of Achievements that in-clude 2013 U.S. Army All American Bowl 1st Al-ternate Punter East Team, 2012 All State Illinois Punter Honorable Men-tion (Illinois doe not have a Punter All State Posi-tion) 2012 Back to Back All Conference 1st Team Punter, 2012 All Metro Missouri and Illinois 1st Team Punter, 2012 1st Place Punter NCS Na-tionals in Florida, 2012 NCAA 1st Place Punter Auburn University 2012 NCAA 1st Place Kick Off Auburn University 2011 1st Place Punter Univer-sity of Illinois.

The Lady Tigers faced Northeast (Cairo) on Jan. 28 and were defeated 62-38. They were also defeat-ed by North Shelby 43-31 on Jan. 30. On Feb. 1, the girls came back and de-feated Atlanta 44-31.
