Board of Education

S. Ks 

At our September board meeting,

the Stark County School Board

voted to sell the unused portion of the

Old Wyoming High School at auction

on Oct. 23. The auction will take place

on site at 10 a.m.

After the announcement of the

auction was made someone askedme the following question: “Why

don’t you just sell the building to the

WyHi Community Group? They’re

obviously interested in purchasing

the building and they have a plan for 

turning the Old High School into a

community center.”

The answer to that question is

this: The school board can’t just sell

district property to whomever they

want. Because we are a public entity

we have specic rules to follow. In

general, we are required to sell to the

highest bidder, and with respect to theOld Wyoming High School, we have

only two options: 1) sell the building

at auction or 2) sell the building via

sealed bids. In either case the law

requires transparency, prior public

notication and equal opportunity to

 prospective buyers. Although a school

 board can maintain the right to reject

all bids, the board cannot, by law, pick 

the winning bid based on a) who it

thinks will be the best neighbor or b)

who the board believes may have the

 best plan for building use.

If everything goes as planned, a

  Notice of Sale will appear in the

newspaper for the next three weeks

and an auction will then take place

on the 23rd. Interested parties should

contact my ofce for a copy of the

terms and conditions of the sale.

Once the sale has been completed,

the board will need to relocate some

utilities, construct a re wall and add

a required exit at the north end of the

 building near the current concession

stand. This work will be completed

with existing re life/safety monies

that, if not for the sale of the building,would have been used to cover just a

 portion of the cost of demolition.

The school board is looking forward

to moving ahead in a constructive

manner that will result in a positive

outcome for the board and the

community.

A Funny FactIn colonial times

some people calledapples “winter  bananas.”

This year at the Stark County Elementary

School students have been asked, “Can

you sing the Star-Spangled Banner?”

Most students can recognize our National

Anthem from football games, Nascar 

races, and presidential events, but cannot

sing it themselves.

Students have been challenged to

memorize and sing the Star-Spangled

Banner for the elementary music teacher,

Mrs. Laura Bennett. Students who have

sung The Star-Spangled Banner have

received a specially designed key-chain,

name and picture in the

hallway and a treat.

Be on the lookout

for the key-chains, and

hopefully we will be

seeing more as the year  progresses.

The idea for the emphasis on learning

The Star-Spangled Banner was inspired

 by the National Association of Music

Educators. The MENC (The National

Association for Music Education) started

the “National Anthem Project” in 2005

to promote and respond to the lack of 

young people knowing the Star-Spangled

Banner.

According to the website supporting

the education of the National Anthem,

http://www.thenationalanthemproject.

org/, in 2004 a Harris Interactive survey

showed that only 1 out of 3 Americansknew the Star-Spangled Banner. The

 National Anthem Project was completed

in 2007 with a ceremony in Washington

D.C. Students and teachers throughout the

 Nation now celebrate “National Anthem

Elementary School Students Tackle National AnthemDay” on Sept. 14.

At the end of the year the elementary

school will be showing support of the

 National Anthem Project by sending

 pictures to the MENC of all the hard work 

and dedication to learning the National

Anthem at the Stark County Elementary

School.

Welcome Back!  from the desk of  Mike Domico

 Principal Stark County Junior/Senior High School 

Greetings!

Our school year is under way and I am proud to

report that we had a great start in the Junior and Senior 

High Schools. Our teachers were prepared and the

students have displayed a terric attitude.

Many times we read about our school or attend an

event and may wonder how a group or individual

arrived at that point. Often times it is easy as we attend

an athletic event and see the score or attend a concert

and recognize a song. There is a tremendous amount

of preparation going on behind the scenes that no one

ever sees or hears about.

Our staff is involved in a large number of projects

that directly affects our students. I would like to point

out some of the projects, departments and committees

that are presently established. Keep in mind our staff 

serves on more than one committee.1. Each department meets at least ve

(5) times per year to work on the

development of our curriculum.2.Testing Committee works to break down

student scores and subject tendencies

to assist in preparing students for thenext round of tests.

3. RtI (Response to Intervention) – We

have two teams on campus, Junior 

High School and Senior High School.

We are presently preparing for the full

implementation of this program. I will

explain our RtI plan in greater detail in

future articles.4. Renaissance Committee works to

  promote incentives for all students.

The intent is to motivate all students to

improve in academic as well as social

 behaviors in our high school.

5. Committee for the Improvement of 

the Junior and Senior High School.This committee works to improve the

overall climate of our campus. Issues

include addressing the problems

of underage drinking and drugs,

homework, and career planning. We

are also going to implement a Career 

Plan for all students with the intent to

assist all students in selecting a career 

 path and the education needed to attain

their particular goals.

Multiple Choice Test1. A 504 plan is . . .a. a math service plan for students

b. a retirement planc. a football playd. I have absolutely no idea!e. none of the above

Well, I would assume most people reading this would

Renee Wallace  Every Child, Every Day, Every Dream

Sak Cny enay pnca

select answer “d”– I have absolutely

no idea! Although 504 plans have been

around since 1973, the average person

has never heard of them. Answer “d” or 

“e” – None of the above could both be

correct.

A 504 plan actually refers to Section

504 of the Rehabilitation Act and the

Americans with Disabilities Act whichspecify that no one with a disability can be

excluded from participating in federally

funded programs or activities including

elementary, secondary or post-secondary

schooling. The term disability refers to

any physical or mental impairment which

substantially limits one or more of the

major life activities: learning, hearing,

seeing, breathing, walking, speaking, and

ability to care for oneself.

Impairments may include illnesses,

injuries, communicable diseases,

 physical impairments, chronic conditions

like asthma, allergies or diabetes and

impairments that create learning problemssuch as ADD, ADHD or Bi-polar disorder.

Students must be substantially impacted

 by this disability to qualify. The impact

on the major life activity is determined

 by the 504 team.

A 504 plan spells out the modications

and accommodations that are appropriate

for the student. It does not, however,

  provide services such as individual

aides, speech, occupational or physical

therapy or others provided through

special education. It is designed to level

the playing eld and provide students

the opportunity to perform at the same

level as their peers. Accommodations or modications might include: wheelchair 

ramps, blood sugar monitoring, an extra

set of textbooks at home, shortened or 

modified assignments, special meals,

etc.

Here is an example of some possible

accommodations for a student with

ADHD:

•Provide appropriate staff training about

ADHD.

•Place seat in close proximity to teacher;

seat away from distractions.

•Provide the child with a peer helper for 

class work and projects.

•School personnel should understand the

child’s potential need for excessive

movement; giving the child an

opportunity to stand and/or move

while working.

•School personnel should understand

the child’s tendency to be inattentive;

establish nonverbal cues between

teacher and child to get his attention

and increase on-task behavior.

•Post classroom rules and review on a

regular basis.

•Reinforce the child when he displays

appropriate behavior.

•Give a ve-minute warning for a change

in activity, so the child can begin to

disengage from the task.

•Provide supervision during transition

times (switching from one activity

to another; moving from one class to

another).

•Ask the child to restate directions.

•Assist the child with organizational

strategies.

•Allow tests to be completed in several

short testing sessions.

•Provide extended time to complete

assignments and tests.

•Train appropriate school personnel to  properly dispense medication and

monitor for side effects (as needed).

Often schools and teachers automatically

  provide these accommodation and

modications, but without a 504 plan,

they are not legally bound to do so. Having

a legally binding plan lets everyone

know what’s to be done and how to go

about it, and promotes consistency and

accountability.

504 plans are not the same as special

education IEPs (Individualized Educa-

tional Plans). A 504 plan attempts to pro-

vide accommodations and modications

to remove barriers to learning but does not provide services. Students who require

IEPs need more signicant remediation

and assistance and are more likely to work 

at their own pace or level.

  Now here’s the important question…

How do I nd out if my child qualies

for a 504 plan? Begin by discussing

your child’s disability with the teacher 

to determine if it substantially impacts

any of the major life activities. If you

feel it does, provide a written request

to the principal to request a meeting to

determine eligibility. If a 504 plan is

appropriate for your child, the team will

work to develop one to meet his or her individual needs. If you have further 

questions about 504 plans, please contact

your building principal.

 Renee Wallace, Principal 

6. Our Technology Committee meets

regularly to address all of the

technological needs of our district.

7. Our administrative team meets regularly

to address curriculum and building

issues. Our Board of Education, led

  by Mr. Marty Cantwell, president, isactively involved in this process.

8. Class ofcers, sponsors of clubs and

activities, and coaches all meet before

and after school to promote student

involvement.

All of these committees and departments

meet outside of the school day and require

a tremendous amount of time and energy.

 Needless to say our staff is actively

involved and extremely dedicated to

these programs as well as maintaining

a very aggressive academic program in

each class.

I am very proud of what we have

accomplished. We remain focused on

student progress and success. Your 

support is essential in making all dreams

 possible for every student no matter what

career path our students choose. Again,

thank you very much for your interest,

involvement, concern and dedication for 

all of our children.

 SCHS Art Club

Jack-O-Lantern RaffleThe Stark County Art Club will sponsor its annual jack-o-lantern

rafe during the last week of October. Tickets will be available for 

50 cents in the cafeteria during school lunches.

The lucky winners will be announced at the end of the day, Friday,

Oct. 29.

Special Ed Program provides support,

services to Stark County High studentsThe Stark County High School Special

Education department provides support

and services to students. Students receive

services based on individual need as

determined by the IEP team.

The Individualized Education Program,

or IEP, is a yearly planning document

that addresses each student’s needs. Most

students participate in a Transitional

Skills class. Career exploration, and job

and independent living skills are the

curriculum focus for the class. Assistance

with academic work, concept practice,

and review are provided as necessary.

The purchase of a new career curriculum

this year is preparing freshmen and

sophomore students for the transition

 process from school to the real world.

At the junior and senior level, students

are linked with outside agencies that will

help them with the transition from high

school to postsecondary life. This may

 be assistance with beginning a career, or 

attending college.

All special education classrooms

received SmartBoards this year, and team

members are beginning to learn how

these can best be used within the special

education curriculum.

The special education faculty members

for this year are Sharon Hall, Niki Kelly

and Nancy Wier.

 A Note from Mr. Loane:

to Parents of Students in my

Government ClassesDuring the first semester, my

Government students are requiredto attend a governmental meetingand write a one-page report onwhat happened at the meeting. Thisrequirement calls for them to findout when and where the meetings

are held and attend at least an hourof a meeting.

I will give the formal assignmentto my students soon. They will havesufficient time to find and attend ameeting. I usually give them severalweeks to get this accomplished.They may attend a school boardmeeting, city council meeting, a fireprotection district meeting, a libraryboard meeting or any other meetingthat has been OK’d by me.

Look for the written assignmentwhen I give it to your student. If you have any questions call or visitMr. Loane.

Bullying AssemblyBy Faith VaughnFirfth Grade

We had a bullying assembly at our school and this is what we

talked about.

Do you know what bullying is? If you don’t, here are some

examples: threats, kicking and gossip.

Helping is not bullying.

Did you know bullying can make others feel unsafe which makes

learning difcult? If you are bullying, think about what you are

doing. Don’t be a bully!

Accounting Class

Plays MonopolyMrs. Patty Wilkinson, business

education teacher at Stark County

High School, has 16 students

enrolled in her Accounting I class

this semester.

Students have spent the rst

five weeks learning the basic

accounting equation (Assets =Liabilities + Owner’s Equity),

determining the normal balance

of assets, liabilities, owner’s

equity, drawing, expenses and

sales accounts, and, finally,

  j o u r n a l i z i n g a c c o u n t i n g

transactions using a general

 journal.

As a reward for their hard

work, students were treated to

two days of playing Monopoly.

As each student took their turn,

they had to journalize their 

transactions using a general

 journal. At the end of the second

day, students totaled the debit

and credit columns of the journal,

and determined that the debits

equaled the credits.

As you can see, students

thoroughly enjoyed playing the

traditional board game – and,

reinforced their accounting

knowledge and skills!

Stark County 5th Grade BandBy Brooke Rennick 

What does it mean when all the teachers start tapping and

humming to the “Go Big Red” song? It means . . . 5th GRADE

BAND HAS STARTED!!! Last Friday, everyone who wanted to

try out for band got the chance.

All of the 5th grade students were anxious and were asking their 

teachers, “Is it my turn yet? Is it my turn yet? When the teachers

called our names, we all started screaming, “Ahhhhh, yes it is my

turn!” Then everyone looked at each other and thought, “This is

awkward.” I know because everyone in my class did that. Also, I

was one of them!

In tryouts, we met the teacher. His name is Chris Cinnamon, but

when students talk to him it’s Mr. Cinnamon. He is very funny, and

I am looking forward to learning music from him.

When someone came back to class from tryouts in the cafeteria,

it was like they were famous, and the editors of a newspaper 

were asking them questions! I know that Emily Faireld, Taytum

Tyree, Claire Steelman and many more will be rocking out on

the saxophone! There aren’t just girls in the band, but boys, too.

Matthew Roark and I were trying out at the same time, and he is

 playing the trumpet. Banging on the drums will be Cami Gaspard,

Drew Ford, Mckenzie Wages, Devan Roach and many more! There

are lots of other instuments too, like the clarinet, ute and oboe.

Also, Mrs. Bennett, our music teacher, gave us the whole 411

about band. That was so in the tryouts we got out our instruments,

and didn’t have to ask Mr. Cinnamon a billion questions. Look 

out Mr. Cinnamon ’cause we are ready and excited to play some

instruments!!!

Book Fair Shoppers

Junior High

Book FairThe SCJH library recently hosted a Scholastic Book 

Fair. Students and teachers were excited about the wide

variety of books, posters, pens, pencils, and bookmarks

that were available for purchase. The favorite items

this year were the drumstick pencils, the chocolatecalculators and the holographic movie bookmarks. The

top selling books were:

• Guardians of Ga’hoole Movie Pack 

• Framed by Gordon Korman

• The Lightning Thief by Rick Riorden

• Brooklyn Nine by Alan Gratz

• Troy High by Shana Norris

The top selling poster was Albert Pujols, simply

 because there were no Cubs posters available!

A big thank you to the following people who helped

make the Book Fair a huge success: Gisette Brewster,

Lisa Knobloch, Heather Kieser, Tyler Dorsey, SCJH

staff, students along with all of the parents, grandparents

and friends who came to the Book Fair during open

house! With prots from the Book Fair we will be ableto add over 80 new books to the Junior High Library!

Butterfly Hatchesfor 2nd GradersBy Olivia Hopp

& Haylee WilkinsStark County Elementary School

We have been learning about

  butterflies in Mrs. Daniels’

Second Grade classroom.

Mrs. Rice gave us a caterpillar.

The caterpillar made a chrysalis.

Then the buttery hatched out

of its chrysalis. The butterfly

exercised its wings before we

let it go.

We let it go in the Learning

Garden. It was cool when we let

it go because it ew away.The 2nd Grade buttery
