Dolly Lastine new to the position of Interim Executive Director of Special Education and Student Support Services. But she is not new to District 287. Dolly came to the District in 1983 as a teacher of the Blind and Visually Impaired. Since that time, Dolly has held multiple leadership positions and acquired years of experience along with credentials in administration.
Dolly most recently held positions as Director of Special Education in Brooklyn Center, District 287 Assistant Special Education Director and Care and Treatment Program Supervisor. Dolly’s many years of leadership and experience in the District will provide seamless support to staff and member districts.

Prior to working in St Francis, she was the Accounting and Support Services Manager in the Spring Lake Park School District, the Accountant for West St. Paul Schools and an Audit Supervisor with an auditing firm. In total, Mae brings with her over 23 years of experience administrating school district finances and auditing school districts.

St. Francis Schools are a host school district for a special education program serving residential treatment centers which has allowed Mae to work closely with student data related to tuition, tuition rates, and tuition billing. Mae was responsible for all financial matters in St. Francis including budgeting, accounting, and purchasing, as well as transportation, student accounting, food service and technology. Mae has extensive knowledge of TIES finance, student and payroll systems. Mae is a strong believer in customer service and using a teamwork approach between the business department and other departments.

Also new this year, Dr. Charlene Myklebust responsibilities now include additional Alternative Learning Programs including ALC Plus. Previously, ALC Programs were shared with Dr. Jane Holmberg who will now be focusing on the Graduation Initiative or “increasing graduation rates.”

SEC Arts Learning Grant Wraps-up Monday, July 30, 2012

Thanks in part to an Arts Learning Grant from the Minnesota State Arts Board; the South Education Center (SEC) hosted internationally recognized artist - Anne Krocak for a yearlong art initiative.

Anne is a teaching/public artist. More than 150 students in special education programs at SEC participated in quality arts learning experiences, increasing their skills in the art form while building self-confidence and self-expression. (read more and watch video)
+

This activity is made possible in part by a grant provided by the Minnesota State Arts Board, through an appropriation by the Minnesota State Legislature from the Minnesota Arts and Cultural Heritage Fund with money from the vote of the people of Minnesota on November 4, 2008.

The arts program also collaborated with VSA Minnesota which is an affiliate of the National VSA organization started by the Kennedy family in the 1970s. Krocak worked with one group of students at SEC to create a mosaic for the school entry through a grant from VSA Minnesota in 2009. VSA Minnesota assisted in the development of this extended residency to ensure the greatest degree of accessibility.

Students visited public art exhibited in the community to observe and gain ideas for the design of their “Accessible Community Art” projects. Krocak then guided them to create a series of public art sculptures, stepping stones, and mosaics. Throughout the project, students documented their arts learning experience in journals. Upon completion, the projects were placed in the school garden and installed in the school entry. A final celebration was held to welcome the new public art pieces.

HealthPartners 2011 Medical Loss Ratio Rebate Wednesday, July 25, 2012

Intermediate District 287 is receiving a 1.3% MLR (premium) rebate from HealthPartners for the 2011 plan year.

For calendar year 2011, HealthPartners will be sending a rebate to certain fully-insured large Minnesota employers representing approximately 5% of their membership. For this segment of their employer clients, they achieved a loss ratio of 83.7% which is 1.3% short of the 85% Medical Loss Ratio (MLR) requirement.

The rebate is not specific to our group’s financial performance; rather it is based on the particular loss ratio within certain plans across the entire HealthPartners’s block of business. You will receive a letter from HealthPartners sometime this week with more details. (read more)
+

There are specific guidelines on how the MLR rebate can be distributed. District administrators are currently evaluating these guidelines to determine how the rebate should be handled. Some employees may receive a rebate while others may not. Employees will be notified soon regarding plans for distribution of the rebate.

The Affordable Care Act requires health insurers to spend at least 85% of the premiums they receive on health care services, such as doctors and hospital bills, and activities to improve health care quality, such as efforts to improve patient safety. No more than 15% of premiums may be spent on administrative costs such as salaries, sales, and advertising.

This federal law is referred to as the MLR standard or the 85/15 rule and it is intended to ensure that consumers get value for their health care dollars. If a health insurer does not meet that rule it must rebate the difference to employers and individuals no later than August 1, 2012 for the 2011 enrollment year.

If employees have questions, please contact our Human Resources Department.

SYLS Online Reaches Educators in Saudi Arabia Tuesday, July 17, 2012

Save Your License “Saturday” workshops are now online. Courses requirements for relicensing Minnesota teachers have been a mainstay service of the PREP Center for many years. An innovation of the content is an online option. Local teachers can access the content at their convenience; teachers living away can keep their Minnesota credentials by accessing the courses long distance. (read more)
+

PREP Center Coordinator, Cindy Stevenson and Dr. Charlene Myklebust wrote and taught the courses in person and then worked with Jon Fila and Mike Smart to create online modules, and to add the newest requirement for technology. Exciting outcomes include:

• First online course opened March 1, 2011: Positive Behavior Intervention Strategies (PBIS).
• Fifth and sixth courses were added in technology in the spring of 2012.
• 602 CEU’s were completed by Minnesota teachers this school year.
• Longest distance user was from Udhailiyah, Saudi Arabia!

Char who is the District's Exe. Director of Mental Health and Partnerships, is the instructor for Behavior, Mental Health, and Accommodations. Cindy is the instructor for Reading. There are two instructors for the Technology Class: Jon Fila is the instructor for Developing Content for Mobile Learning; and Mike Smart is the instructor for Google Mojo.

There are numerous testimonials about the quality and attention given the students (Minnesota teachers) by the four instructors, but Cindy Stevenson recently received the most compelling story after Tom took Reading Class:

“My name is Tom. I have suffered from dyslexia all my life. One reason I teach PE is precisely because I do not read well. Now, I can refer others on to some of these resources I've learned about and give them the assurance that more and more research is being done all the time to help discover even more ways that teacher and parents can better combat this issue. Thank you very much for this class. I have learned a lot and I know I will be a better advocate for neuroscience and brain function research when looking for answers to those seeking to better teach those with dyslexia - like me.”

PCA Student Named National Merit Scholar Sunday, July 8, 2012

Prairie Center Academy (PCA) student, Carlos Kelly, has been named a "National Merit Scholar®."

Carlos came to PCA with private and public school experiences. Carlo’s mother also worked with his home school academics. All of these changes were part of Carlo’s suffering with severe pain though out much of his life. This terrible pain kept Carlos from his classes for up to a month at a time. (Read more and see his essay.)
+

Carlos has written a beautiful and enlightening essay about the many efforts he and those around him have made on his behalf so that he would graduate from high school.

"My relatively successful journey to complete high school and my National Merit status is almost entirely a result of the overwhelming support I have received from family, friends and support systems like the faculty at PCA," Carlos said in his essay. (read more)

Being considered for the National Merit Scholar recognition is not easy. According to their program outline, a student must begin by taking the Preliminary SAT/National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test (PSAT/NMSQT). This test screens 1.5 million entrants each year. Scores in critical reading, mathematics and writing skills qualify students for National Merit Scholar Program. Only 3% of students achieve this recognition.

If all goes well, Carlos hopes to graduate this Fall.

Congratulations Carlos and PCA!

Epsilon students build “Little Libraries” for the Community Monday, June 25, 2012

Epsilon students and staff are taking part in the “Little Free Libraries” program. More than 60 students are building Little Libraries in their Epsilon Career Skills Class.

The Little Libraries Program operates on an honor system. Small little mini libraries are built and folks in the neighborhood “take a book or leave a book”. You will see these structures in front yards, by a sidewalks, coffee shops or parks. Each holds about 20 to 30 books. (read more)
+

The libraries are built by residents and organizations and are intended to promote literacy and the love of reading. Our students have been working with this program for five semesters. The goal of Little Free Libraries is to create and install 2,510 little free libraries across the world – more libraries than philanthropist Andrew Carnegie endowed during his lifetime.

This summer, Epsilon students will complete five libraries. The locations for their libraries have not been determined. Students already have several organizations interested in posting their libraries.

PCA celebrates 20 years Tuesday, June 12, 2012

Staff and students marked the 20th anniversary of the Prairie Center Academy (PCA) during graduation ceremonies.

PCA was approved as an "Alternative Learning Center" in 1992. It began as a collaboration with Eden Prairie, Minnetonka, Bloomington and Edina school districts. These west metro districts requested more options for students including a full course of study. (read more)

Longtime program lead Jim Snavely retired in 2008 and current lead Becky Brown began that year. In 2009, PCA and the Ridgedale Alternative Programs were merged, bringing with it many changes. Since then, PCA staff have designed a number of curriculum delivery strategies to better assist students complete their credits.

Some of the changes and opportunities student and staff have embraced include: A daily Open Track hour; Electronic curriculum options including Moodle courses and Project Foundry; and Student participation in creating a personal learning plan (PLP). The PLPwork sometimes combines work at their home school or Hennepin Technical College with PCA coursework.

During the 20 year PCA history, 48 staff members have played a role in more than 600 PCA students graduating.

Congratulations PCA!

Students see President Obama's Motorcade Friday, June 1, 2012

When staff and students the Sandburg Education Center learned that President Barack Obama would be at the Honeywell Company right across the street from the school, they began preparing for his visit.

(read more)
+

Students learned about the President as they made signs that he might see from his motorcade. Students shared what they learned as they waited anxiously on the school grounds for a glimpse. One student offered, “The President plays basketball with his wife and the secret service. I saw a picture.” Another observed, “The election this year will tell Obamas if they have to move out of the White House.”

The research and preparation paid off. The banners and flags caught President Obama’s attention who waved as he went past the school and into the Honeywell driveway.

The excited students returned to classes while the activities took place across the street but they returned at 1:00 p.m. to watch his motorcade leave. Once again, President Obama and others in his car waved at students and staff who will always count this as a very special day.

Member District Using ALC Checklist Friday, May 25, 2012

District 287 focuses expertise by providing direct service to students and also provides consultation for districts offering unique programming. This year, the Area Learning Center leadership provided an internal review service for districts that wanted to have an internal check about the quality of their services.

The Hopkins School District first requested the service to understand how their Hopkins Alternative Program met criteria in instruction, curriculum, and other benchmarks of ALC quality and compliance. (read more)
+

Through the process of working with Hopkins and reviewing internal procedures at District 287, Lynda Benkofske and Lea Dahl developed an ALC Program Review Checklist. Two five point scales (5 = best) were designed:
• Targeted Services serving K-8 students at risk; and
• Area Learning Centers serving high school age students.

Through the eyes of a team, the checklist can be self-administered; and evaluated through a facilitated discussion.

In another part of the process, the programs key components can be reviewed including: their mission, Continuous Learning Plan, data reports and staff licensure.

The Minnesota State Department of Education has used the tool to support the work of ALC’s around the state.

What Is Needed? What Works? What Needs Changing? Tuesday, May 22, 2012

Our district aspires to meet the challenge of our strategic plan by measuring how well we are serving our members. One important measure is the extent to which districts declare satisfaction with the value and effectiveness of specialized services we deliver to them. In order to do this, we must know what each district needs from us specifically so that we can tailor our programs, services and responses. This is the purpose of our Conditions of Satisfaction (COS) tool. (read more)
+

Last spring we asked every member district to complete a COS form in three areas: business services, special education and general education. This tool asks them to state what conditions we would have to meet for them to declare they are satisfied with our work. Now it is time to take these forms back to each district’s lead contact in Business Services, Special Education and Teaching and Learning so they can “mark our report card,” so to speak. They can rank us on a scale of 1 – 4 for each statement of a condition of satisfaction they told us was important to them: 1 being Unsatisfied, and 4 being Very Satisfied.

Using the COS form gives our member districts and us a chance to reflect on what is needed, what is working, what needs changing. Looking to next school year, member districts can take this opportunity to reconfirm current statements of their conditions of satisfaction or make new statements based upon changing needs. It gives them a real opportunity to review and make new requests for customized programs and services at least once a year (though requests can and do come in at any time.) An annual review by top administrators is always helpful to them and to us. It gives us valuable feedback about our strategic objectives so we can continue to improve the ways we serve our member districts. We appreciate the feedback.

SchoolView Student Portal – Released at SECA Monday, May 21, 2012

A recent software release called SchoolView has resulted in “students taking ownership of their own data” states Jayne Tiedemann, Principal at District 287’s SECA program located at South Education Center. The TIES SchoolView product allows students to view many different sets of data, including attendance, testing results, grades, Personal Learning Plans, and the teacher’s Gradebook.

"Our students are very excited about using this new tool,” stated Tonya Allen, Assistant Principal at SECA, “they can now monitor their progress towards graduation and have input into their own Personal Learning Plan.” SECA has more than 180 students currently enrolled and trained on the new product.

“Students are given access to SchoolView upon intake, so they can begin watching their progress immediately” states Melissa Winship, School Counselor at SECA. (learn more)
+

During the training sessions, students were heard saying things such as: This is cool and I used to have this at my other district. Chris Dykes a student in the SECA program stated “it’s helpful to see my grades.”

Sandy Gaulke, Manager of Student Information Systems, shared that there were many background processes that had to be put in place for this to be a successful roll-out, and that many staff members needed to be on-board as well. “We had to make sure that our support system was in place, that teachers and administrators were prepared, and that the data we shared with students would be meaningful, accurate, and helpful to them,” she stated.

District administration is currently in discussion regarding what’s next for the SchoolView roll-out. “We want to get this tool to all of our students and their parents,” stated Colleen Baumtrog, Executive Director of Administrative Services. “This roll-out has taken quite a few staff members a great amount of preparation time to make sure it was done right,” she continued. The initial plan is to release access rights to students in other programs this fall, and to begin piloting it with parents during the 2012-13 school year as well.

“Parents have been asking for on-line payment of lunch fee’s for some time, “mentioned Rose Hobson, Supervisor of Food Service Division.

“Turning on the SchoolView product will be greatly appreciated by our parents,” she continued. David Anderson, Fiscal Services Manager, stated that “this will allow District 287 to accept on-line payments for other fees as well, such as spirit wear, equipment rentals, and activity fees.”

Char Myklebust, Executive Director of Mental Health/Training/Partnerships, observed “Our Student Information System provides us with a great foundation to take our district data to the next level, which includes sharing it with our students and their parents. We’re very excited about having the ability to do so.”

Brett’s leadership and many skills were described for us. In part, here are some comments from the CWA staff:

“Brett has gone out of his way to let all staff know that he’s “not a leader.” Every time he steps up to the plate academically, mentors a new student, mediates a conflict between his peers, or serves as a role model in the classroom, he makes sure to remind us that he’s not a leader. Despite these numerous examples of leadership and his positive attitude and infectious sense of humor, Brett still contends he is not a leader.”

“By setting the tone for classroom participation and having the bravery to speak his mind, Brett paves the way for others to follow in his footsteps and begin to find their voice. Through his constant work at his program, his job, and his ardent desire to 'get outta here,' Brett incites other students to focus on earning their credits, finding healthy hobbies, and becoming accountable.”
