lone site
council meets
The lone Site Council, at their
February 9 meeting, heard a
report from Morrow County
School Board member John
Rietmann that the selection
process for the Morrow County
School Superintendent had
narrowed the field to seven
candidates.
Rietmann also informed the
council that teacher contract
negotiations are still being held.
lone High School Principal
Dick Allen reported that he has
been working on the President's
Academic Excellence Award
criteria. The award would be
given to students exiting the
fifth, eighth and 12th grades. He
suggested that the criteria
include a GPA of 3.5 or higher
and an "exceed" rating on the
state benchmark multiple choice
test. A final decision was tabled
until the March 10 meeting due
to a large number of members
absent.
Rietmann reported that the
school board would like the
council to work further on
finding solutions to the recent
suggestion list forwarded to
them. Allen took a poll of
teachers asking how the site
council could help them help
prepare students for the state
tests. The highest priority from
the staff responding was
additional prep time.
Dale
Holland suggested that we look
at the possibility of modified
block scheduling. The discussion
was tabled until the March
meeting.
Charity McElligott mentioned
that parents had approached her
about the number of academic
awards being given out. When
students
are
filling
out
scholarship applications, they
are noting a shortage of awards
since many go to upperclassmen
at too late a date to show up on
the application. It was decided
to see if more awards could be
given in each subject area.
Honored students this month
included Katie Tworek, who
placed first in the local Elks
Scholarship Contest and who is
a finalist for the WalMart
Scholarship. Also, Jessica Krebs
placed third in the local Elk
Scholarship.
Shelby Krebs
placed second in international
business at the District Future
Business Leaders of America
(FBLA) contest. Finally, grades
five, eight and 10 were
commended for "working hard"
on the recent state writing and
math assessment tests.
A decision was tabled on a
request for reimbursement from
a staff member who attended a
conference recently.
John Rietmann, Dick Allen,
Dale Holland, Steve Schaber,
Anne Morter, Charity McElligott
and Betty Rietmann were
present at the meeting..
The next meeting of the lone
Site Council will be held on
Wednesday, March 10, starting
at 5 p.m. at Room One at lone
High School.
