continue funding these items while also expanding to other projects and programs. The vast ma-jority of “state-funded” universi-ties have well-es-tablished founda-tions. More and more, K-12 pub-lic schools are developing their own foundations, as they have become keenly aware of the success that has been experienced by higher education. Most, if not all, of the large universities within the U.S. have foundations that have accrued over a bil-lion dollars in total assets. The vast ma-jority of these dollars did not come from the business sector as one might think. A recent statistic provided by Aly Sterling Philanthropy states that over 80% of do-nations come through private individuals and alumni. As you are well aware, our school district relies heavily upon revenues that are generated through property tax. We could not operate our district without the continued support of our residents. As a relatively new superintendent, I have quickly learned that the loss of state fund-ing, decreased valuation of real estate, and the increased costs of operating a dis-trict make it very diffi cult to provide our students with the educational opportuni-

Clay High School Environmen-tal and Agricultural Technologies student Austin Fisher spent the past weekend in Columbus, Ohio, at the Midwest Veterinary Conference (MVC). The MVC is the third largest veterinary conference in the United States. Austin attended lectures on veterinary medicine, including ad-vanced fl uid therapy, anesthesia/an-algesia in rabbits and small animals, and an update on adrenal gland dis-ease in ferrets. Austin, who works at the Bird and Exotic Pet Wellness Center in Toledo,Ohio, also assisted Dr. Su-san Orosz, PhD, DVM, Dipl ABVP (Avian), Dipl ECZM (Avian), with her lectures on Sunday afternoon. They taught veterinary technicians on different subjects of avian medi-cine. Austin demonstrated proper restraint of different sized parrots for physical exams and helped the tech-nicians learn the diffi cult job of par-rot restraint.

Jerusalem students were treated to an exciting program last week. Genoa native, Diane Terry, author of The Happy Faced Spider and The Bubble Gum Fairy, shared with the students “ways with the students to be bored no more.” Her presentation focused on ways to look at the world with a different perspective. She encouraged classes to use their imaginations and creativity to develop new ideas. Accompany-ing Mrs. Terry was Rachel K. Acker-man, illustrator. Ms. Ackerman, a Jerusalem alumnus, shared with the children how she developed artwork for the stories from start to fi nish. Both Mrs. Terry and Ms. Ackerman inspired students to explore pos-sibilities in the world around them through writing, art, music, and cre-ative thinking.

Dear Oregon and Jerusalem Township Residents,

I would like to begin by saying thank you to all of our parents, faculty, and staff for their patience and support during this very tough winter season. From the bot-tom of my heart, Thank You!

OREGON SCHOOLS FOUNDATION + STRATEGIC PLANNING =

ENDLESS POSSIBILITIES

On March 24, 2014, The Press ran an article entitled, “School Board looks at strategic planning.” The information used to write this article was taken from our March 18th board meeting, where I dis-cussed how important it is for our district to deepen our connection with the private sector to discover new funding opportu-nities. This is where the Oregon Schools Foundation can play a major role. By defi -nition, a foundation is a non-profi t entity that exists to help fund projects and pro-grams for a specifi c organization. The Oregon Schools Foundation has been in existence for over 23 years, and was founded by Michael Armstrong, Larry Vrizelaar, Thomas Bashalske, Helen Lybarger, Theodore Jenkins, Jack Murphy, and Robert Millen. In the past, the Foun-dation has predominately awarded class-room grants that support innovation and creative learning in every subject reach-ing every school in the district in addi-tion to various project support. The goal of the district and the foundation is to

ties they deserve. A strong and vibrant foundation can become the mechanism by which we can supplement academic programs, expand the fi ne arts, and im-prove our athletic facilities. Brent Shimman, President of the Or-egon Schools Foundation said, “The Or-egon Schools Foundation is ready and ea-ger to assist the district in moving forward toward excellence. We believe through collaboration with the administration, Board of Education, and Aly Sterling Philanthropy, we have the right pieces in place to put together a strategic plan that can help take the district to the next lev-el.” As stated in The Press article, our dis-trict is going to partner with the Oregon Schools Foundation and Aly Sterling Phi-lanthropy to update our district strategic plan. In the very near future you will be receiving a series of surveys and question-naires that will help us determine what priorities our students, parents, staff, and community would like addressed. Based on this feedback, the district will align our resources and put together a compre-hensive plan that will assist us in reach-ing these goals. I encourage everyone who reads this letter to respond to our surveys and ques-tionnaires to ensure that all voices are heard. Over the next few months, I will be giving updates on our strategic planning process. As always, please do not hesitate to contact me at 419-693-0661, or by email lrivera@oregoncs.org.

Who is your child’s most important teacher? You, of course. No matter how experienced, gifted, and hard working your child’s classroom teachers are, their infl uence over your child is small com-pared to yours – even during the school day. In any given classroom, some chil-dren have greater success than others. Part of the reason, certainly, is ability, but there is much more to it than that. Studies have clearly shown that children of low and average intelligence can consistently outperform brighter children. Most children who succeed do so because they come to school every day with advantages other than natural abil-ity. They are more eager to learn, they’re willing to work harder, and they’re less likely to give up at the fi rst sign of trouble than their lower achieving classmates.

These are advantages that they’ve gained at home, and that parents can give to their children. You are being watched. Much of what children learn at home comes to them simply by watching their parents respond in different situations. It pays, then, to think of the time you spend with your child as teaching time. Not in the formal sense, where you are lecturing and directing and asking questions and test-ing your child. But in a relaxed, casual sense, where you are setting examples, modeling behavior and sharing experi-ences with your child. When you start a project, for ex-ample, keep in mind that your child is watching and learning. Perhaps you can talk to him or her about how you read the directions all the way through fi rst so you know how the entire job is supposed to go

and can plan for the time, material, and tools needed. Even projects that are botched can teach good lessons. You could, for exam-ple, think out loud as you try to analyze what went wrong and what you could do differently to succeed next time. The attitude you demonstrate can help your child learn how to bounce back after fall-ing short. Also, draw your child’s attention to the times you use skills that he or she is learning in school – proofreading a let-ter that you wrote, for example, or add-ing fractions for a remodeling project. For a youngster, the best reason for learning is to know how to do what Mom or Dad does.

THE LEARNING LETTERTo Parents Helping Their Children Learn

Students at Jerusalem jumped all over heart disease and stroke by partici-pating in Jump Rope/Hoops for Heart. The students raised more than $1,300 for the American Heart Association, which funds research, programs and education to fi ght heart disease and stroke, our na-tion’s No. 1 and No. 4 killers. “I’m so pleased with the success of this year’s event,” Ms Rossler, Jump Rope for Heart coordinator, said. “We all had a lot of fun, and the kids enjoyed learning about the importance of physical activity and how they can play a role in saving lives.” Jump Rope/Hoops for Heart is a pro-gram that promotes physical activity and heart health through jumping rope and shooting hoops. It is co-sponsored by the American Heart Association and the American Alliance for Health, Physical Education, Recreation, and Dance. A huge shout out goes to all those participating and/or encouraging in-volvement in this worthy cause. Way to go JETS!Students preparing to jump on heart disease using jump ropes

Oregon Schools Finance Update: Jane Fruth, Treasurer/CFO Based on data received from the Lucas County Auditor’s office Oregon City Schools has the lowest Voted Millage when compared to all other school districts in Lucas County!! This benchmark includes all types of school levies Lucas County Taxpayers support ie: general operating, bond funds, permanent improvement, and vocational funds.

** Districts where taxpayers pay 3.20Mills to support Penta Vocational School. Oregon City Schools is a comprehensive high school and we offer vocational opportunities to all interested students as part of their Clay High School education. Digging a bit deeper into Lucas County data shows similar trends but due to our dropping property values individual homeowners are paying more as effective millage rates on old levies increase. The one constant as values and effective millage rates change is that the Oregon Board of Education will work to provide an excellent education as cost effectively as possible.

In March, Coy Elementary School was thrilled to be selected to receive Ohio’s Exemplary Reading Program award by the International Reading Asso-ciation, which sponsors this award to rec-ognize outstanding reading and language arts programs in elementary, middle, and high schools. Each participating state can choose one winning school and this year it was Coy Elementary. The criteria for judging includes (but is not limited to) ex-cellence in reading and literacy programs, encouraging the development and refi ne-ment of exemplary reading/language arts programs, and improving literacy in so-ciety. Specifi c initiatives that were exam-ined to determine Coy’s award included the Coy Reads tutoring program, com-munity volunteer involvement, compre-hensive Daily 5 practices throughout the

building, ER&D Comprehension Strategy teaching practices, professional develop-ment in the area of literacy, staff involve-ment with The Toledo Area Council of the International Reading Association, Title I services, involvement with Right to Read Week/International Literacy Day/Read Across America, various author vis-its, participation in the Read, Write, and Think Organization, and participation with the Accelerated Reader program. Students from Coy also participated in a community project sponsored by Toledo Area Council of the International Reading Association. Students created Christmas ornaments and cards using theme poems from readwritethink.org. These ornaments were made to send a positive and uplifting message to local cancer patients undergoing chemothera-

py. Three council members from the In-ternational Reading Association spent an entire day at Coy School visiting class-rooms and watching lessons. They spoke with and observed teachers, instructors, tutors and volunteers, toured the school and had a lengthy interview with the school principal. In the afternoon, they attended a beautiful storybook-themed luncheon that included tasty treats like (Cloudy with a Chance of) meatballs, (The Very Hungry Caterpillar) tossed salad, (Chicks and Salsa) chicken salad sandwiches, and (Blueberries For Sale) blueberry muffi ns. To end the day, Mrs. Greenberg’s students delighted guests with a Power Point presentation. In the words of one council member, “Coy Elementary School, Oregon City

School District, has an outstanding phi-losophy and practice in the teaching of reading. From our visit, it is absolutely clear that the effort put forth by reading educators, administrators, staff members, and Oregon community members has re-sulted in a strong reading program that supports the literacy needs of all Coy stu-dents…… It was abundantly clear that reading at Coy Elementary is not just a subject; it is a way of life, and is valued by all staff and community members.” Coy School was formally recognized at the National Reading Association con-ference in New Orleans in May, and prin-cipal Amy Molnar, intervention specialist Julie Greenberg, teacher Julie Marciniak, and board member Carol Molnar repre-sented the staff in accepting the award. Congratulations, Coy!!!

Aquarium Management Competition

As part of a proactive anti-bully-ing initiative, Starr students partici-pated in Random Acts of Kindness Week from February 10-14. Each day had a kindness-related theme and students wore clothing related to the theme, including “Crazy for Kindness!” (students wore crazy col-ored socks) and “Ride the Kindness Wave!” (students wore beach-themed clothing). During the event, students were challenged to complete 10 Acts of Kindness and had the opportuni-ty to “mail” messages of friendship to others through our Valentine’s Post Offi ce. On the last day of RAK Week, students celebrated “Share Your Heart through Art Day!” during which they painted one-of-kind wa-tercolor heart artwork with the goal of creating a warm and caring school climate.

Romeo and Juliet —their blood shall pay the debt.Montague and Capulet —a raging war they now regret.Poisoned lips and daggered chest . . . their children now laid to rest.Two star-crossed lovers made of gold. . . both of body and of soul.Evil is just the absence of good,to tell this story, I should.Remember this story good and well,the story we forever tell,for their story we shall not forget —the story of Romeo and Juliet.

Abraham Lincoln, Helen Keller, Martin Luther King, Jr., Neil Armstrong, and Susan B. Anthony were among the many celebrities portrayed by Starr El-ementary third-graders during the fi rst wax museum during the week of March 17. The biography and wax museum project, where students gave speeches and dressed as the celebrity of their choice, encompassed many learning objectives through the common core curriculum. During the third quarter,

each third-grade student was respon-sible for researching a person of their choice, who has made contributions to society. After reading a biography about the person of their choice, the students completed an outline, wrote a one page report, and decorated a poster displaying the selected person’s life and timeline. As an extension and integration of the common core standards for language arts, social studies, research, and speak-ing and listening, the students then pre-

sented their person of choice through a wax museum, with a brief one to two minute speech in the fi rst person point of view telling about the person’s life and contributions made to society. All of the students were in full costume and re-cited facts, in character, to teachers, visi-tors, and other students. Overall, the re-sponses and feedback from teachers and parents were positive, and students were thrilled to see history come alive at Starr School!

As a part of the unit of study of the Holocaust, including the novel Night by Elie Weisel, eighth graders visited the Holocaust Memorial Center in Farming-ton Hills, Michigan. During this visit, the students toured the memorial which is focused on education and pres-ervation of the his-tory of the events both in the displays and the architec-ture of the struc-ture. At this center, there is a tree from a sapling of the tree outside Anne Frank’s window; one of only seven saplings sent to the United States for planting. Students were able to stand in an actual cattle car used to trans-port the prisoners to the concentration camp and imagine how cramped and uncertain it would be to travel in those conditions.

Jessica Joyce with Mrs. Molnar.

Each month, every classroom at Coy Elementary chooses two stu-dents, one boy and one girl, to have lunch with Principal Molnar. Every student has a shot at lunch with the principal, since the names of all pos-sible candidates are put into a draw-ing and two are chosen. To qualify, students must stay on “green” in their daily behavior chart by follow-ing Coy school’s guiding principles: Be Respectful, Be Responsible, and Build Relationships. To ensure fair-ness, a student may be chosen only once during the school year. During their regular lunch hours, students join Principal Molnar in the multi-purpose room for juice, Mar-co’s pizza, and dessert. They also take time to chat and share news. At the end of the luncheon, each student has his or her picture taken with Mrs. Molnar, and she later delivers copies of the pictures to them as a memento of the day. Every student also leaves with a my-principal-thinks-I’m-great!sticker to announce to their friends and family that they had lunch with the principal.

Fourth grade students at Coy Elementary have been busy! Stu-dents learned about ecosystems and food chains. They used the scientifi c method while dissecting owl pellets to learn how to tell what an owl has eaten. Students have also been learn-ing about fossils, making predictions and observations while creating fos-sil models using bread, gummy bears, and gummy worms to simulate sedi-ment layers and the pressure needed to make fossils and their molds and casts.

Mud Dog Challenge The Coy Ram Fit Club is work-ing hard to prepare for an upcoming local charity race on May 24 at the Mud Dog Challenge course in Swan-ton, Ohio.

Although the Mud Dog Challenge course was designed to test the toughest adults, the organizer for the Mud Dog Chal-lenge has opened up a shortened course specifi cally designed for chil-dren. The Coy Ram Fit Club is excit-ed and working hard on their prepa-ration for such a challenge. Good luck to Coy’s Ram Fit Club on their upcoming endeavor!

Students at Jerusalem celebrated the 100th day of school on February 24. First graders spent the day participating in hundreds of fun activities. In addition to bringing in a collection of 100 items, they made necklaces from Fruit Loops and Cheerios, crowns, and wrote about what it will be like when they are 100 years old The students also counted down the fi rst

100 minutes of the day in ten minute in-crements with a timer and tickets. Win-ners received a 100 Grand bar! They read 100 Hungry Ants and The Wolf’s Chicken Stew, as well. At snack time, the students ate a 100 made from Club and Ritz crack-ers and cheese. The day ended with a parade and hundreds day treats! A great time was had by all.
