Forwarded message From: Caitlin Jacobson
Good morning, Bob!
This year I was asked to chair the Sibert Informational Book Award committee of the American Library Association. We completed our work last week at the Midwinter Meeting of the ALA. And made history! (See details below!)
I will be talking to local news outlets about my committee work, and wanted you to know, too. I am SO grateful that I am able to use professional leave to do the important work of my association!!
(The photo below is of the teen division's nonfiction award committee. We will meet and celebrate with Congressman Lewis in June, at the summer conference. So I will have lots of photos to share in the fall!)

MARCH Sweeps American Library Association Awards with Record Breaking FOUR Wins
No single book has ever won four ALA Youth Media Awards.
ATLANTA — The bestselling March graphic novel trilogy broke new records yesterday by winning four major awards in the American Library Association's Youth Media Awards, more than any book in the awards' history. March: Book Three, the concluding volume by Congressman John Lewis, Andrew Aydin, and Nate Powell, was announced as the winner of:
the Coretta Scott King Book Award (for outstanding AfricanAmerican books for youth), the Michael L. Printz Award (for excellence in young adult literature), the Robert F. Sibert Informational Book Award (for most distinguished informational book for children), and the YALSA Award for Excellence in Nonfiction for Young Adults.
These honors for March: Book Three follow closely on the heels of the National Book Award for Young People's Literature and the Walter Dean Myers Award for Outstanding Children’s Literature – Young Adult Category, making it the first book to win both the Printz and the National Book Award. "I'm delighted and honored that America's librarians are supporting March with these awards," said Congressman Lewis. "I love books and I love librarians. When I was growing up I tried to read every single thing I could. I hope these awards will help inspire all of our young people — and some of us not so young — to read, to learn, and to act. March is a guidebook reminding us that we all must speak up and stand up for what is right, what is fair, and what is just."
KGBSD Board Meeting Packet Page 6 02-08-2017 The March trilogy, which depicts Lewis’s firsthand account of the Civil Rights Movement, has previously won such honors as the Robert F. Kennedy Book Award, the Eisner Award, two Harvey Awards, and a Coretta Scott King Author Honor. It is rapidly being adopted by universities and public school systems from New York to San Francisco, and recently spent six continuous weeks holding the top 3 spots on the New York Times Bestseller List. Congressman Lewis accepted the YALSA Nonfiction Award on behalf of the three creators yesterday at the ALA Midwinter Conference in Atlanta. The King, Printz, and Sibert Awards will be handed out in ceremonies at the ALA Annual Conference in June.
Congratulations to the MARCH team, and thanks to all of you for helping us make history!

Re: Superintendent Report
Superintendent Report
Elizabeth Peratrovich Day, February 16, activities are scheduled across the District and Board members are invited to attend. It seems appropriate that included in this Superintendent Report is an update on the Haida Language program adoption. Kayhi is now working on a plan to fit two Haida Language classes into their schedule.
AASB’s School Climate and Connectedness Survey (SCCS) is set to launch on Monday, February 6th and run through the 17th. The Youth Risk Behavior Survey (YRBS) is scheduled to be administered on February 21st at both Kayhi and Revilla. These surveys provide us with a snapshot of our students and both are used by various community agencies. Reports from these surveys will be provided when they become available.
We have expanded our CTE update with a memo from Director of Curriculum, Shannon, Sines. Recommendations from KayHi Principal are also included. This is in an effort to include final review and any program changes into the FY 18 Kayhi schedule.
The Kayhi Activities Committee met February 1. The committee will take an in-depth review of various aspects of activities at Kayhi. Administration plans to have a completed checklist of the recommendations from the Title IX Report before July 1. A memo on Committee actions and Kayhi plans are included in this report from Bob Marshall, Kayhi Principal.
Politics are in full engagement. I testified before the House Education Committee on Monday, January 30, concerning House Bill 67. The House and Senate both have bills requesting authority to establish a task force to review reading and reading instructional issues state- wide. I suggested to the Committee they bring back the early screening program cut by Legislators two years ago, fund preschool programs and fully fund schools to provide reading specialists in schools to have robust Response to Intervention (RtI) programs.
As Board Chair of South East Regional Resource Center (SERRC), I participated in drafting a Resolution 2017:01, urging the funding of Secure Rural Schools. The SERRC Resolution is attached.

KGBSD Board Meeting Packet Page 21 02-08-2017 On the national front, the nomination of Betsy DeVos for Secretary of Education by President Trump has gained attention. Senator Murkowski has gone on record as a no vote and Senator Sullivan a yes. The spilt in our Senator’s votes is reflective of the full Senate, which appears to be headed to a 50 for and 50 against tie, which would require Vice President Pence to cast the deciding vote. The first time in history confirmation of cabinet position would require a Vice Presidential tie breaker. It is expected that, if his vote is needed, he will vote in favor of DeVos.
Our first public reviews of the prosed budget are Feb. 9, 6:00 PM and Feb. 11, 2:00 PM in the Kayhi library. One area that may gain attention is activities funding. The Title IX report suggests that we increase funding to relieve some of the tension created by fundraising. Proposed budgets from Kayhi Administration suggests the need to increase funding by a minimum of $100,000, with the suggestion of a total of $500,000. The higher amount will eliminate all fundraising.
The ground hog, Punxsutawney Phil, the Seer of Seers, Prognosticator of All Prognosticators, was awakened from his burrow to the cheers of his thousands of faithful followers. Reportedly Phil saw his shadow and prognosticates six weeks of winter. While this may influence our budget with the need for heating, the sunny weather usually associated with colder temperatures may be cheerful. Thank you ground hog. www.groundhog.org

MEMO

Re: Haida Language Course
Last Fall, administration began conversations with the Ketchikan Indian Community (KIC) regarding their proposal for the addition of a Haida language course to the Ketchikan High School Course Catalog. In order to consider the proposal, several factors had to be considered; funding, staffing, curriculum, classroom space and scheduling.
• For the District, the biggest consideration is, and has always been, funding. With KIC proposing to financially support the staffing needed for this course, it allows the District to pursue an additional language course. • Finding a staff person, properly qualified and certified, is the second largest consideration. Again, KIC has secured a staff person for recommendation. KGBSD will work with KIC and the recommended staff person to ensure proper certification through the State of Alaska. • In collaboration with KIC, the curriculum utilized in our current language courses has been modified for a Haida language course. (included) • Principal Bob Marshall has confirmed that a classroom space is available and will be working to include two class periods of Haida I in the 2017-2018 master schedule.
The administration looks forward to further development of the Haida language course offerings. Moving ahead, it will be important that both the District and KIC work to recruit students interested in learning the Haida language in order to ensure proper enrollment and sustainability.

Date: February 2, 2017 Re: Activities Committee Update
Mr. Boyle
The newly formed Activities Committee held their first meeting on Wednesday, February 1st in the Kayhi Library. The following people have agreed to serve on the committee:
• Alma Parker, KGBSD Board Member • Glenn Brown, KGBSD Board Member • Angela Salazar, Community Member • Lupe Thompson, Community Member • Scott Brandt-Erichsen, Community Member • Sharyl Yeisley, Community Member • Andy Berntson, Kayhi Activities Coach • David Mitchel, Kayhi Activities Coach • Eric Stockhausen, Kayhi Activities Coach • Leigh Woodward, Kayhi Activities Coach • Trina Purcell, Kayhi Activities Coach/Facilities Manager • Sydney Nichols, Kayhi Student • Vince Tenebro, Kayhi Student • Bob Marshall, Principal • Mike Rath, Vice Principal • Lynn Wadley, Activities Coordinator • Kurt Lindemann, Revilla Principal
Our first task was to create a meeting schedule and the committee agreed to meet at the following dates.
th • Wednesday, February 15 st • Wednesday, March 1 th • Wednesday, April 5 th • Wednesday, April 19
KGBSD Board Meeting Packet Page 31 02-08-2017
All meetings will continue to be in the Kayhi Library at 6:00 PM and the committee will determine if more meetings are needed after the April 19th date.
The majority of the meeting centered on the discussion of housing for activities. More specifically, we discussed whether current practice compromised student safety. All the members of the committee agreed the way housing is done in Region V is unique to our area. Here are some of the major points from our discussion.
• Overall, would like to continue housing visiting teams here in Ketchikan • Allow coaches to determine if they will house out in other communities if offered or choose another method of housing (ex. Hotel, VRBO, Airbnb, etc.) • Update guidelines and parental permissions to ensure alignment with Region V policies and with best practices regarding safety • More communication by the school with coaches and parent/guardians: o About housing needs o Parent/Guardian responsibilities when asked to house o Explicit instructions for the event to know where and when students ought to be o Ask for volunteers at the Parent Meeting for the activity at the beginning of the season • Coaches take on the role of coordinating housing with their team/club because of the relationship and knowledge they have with their players o During major events (MusicFest, Region Tournaments, etc.) where a larger amount of students will be present the coordination of housing will be done with the assistance of the Activities Coordinator’s office
At the next meeting we will look at the updated housing policy and permissions documents created as a result of our discussion to review before implementation. Other topics to be discussed will be on the agenda which will be posted on the Kayhi website no later than Monday, February 13th.
On a similar note, I am working with Mike Rath and Lynn Wadley on a document that outlines the administration’s response to the recommendations found in the Title IX report. Our responses will include actions that have been taken or will be taken as well as dates these tasks will be completed. This document will be made available to you to share with the Board of Education at the February 22nd meeting.
Thank you
Bob Marshall Principal

Re: Career Technical Education Review
The 2016-2017 KGBSD Board Goals include a Goal Statement that reads “The KGBSD will expand the opportunities available to its students for vocational/technical training and certification. The District will seek additional education and training partnerships with the local business and industry.” Superintendent Goals – FY17, a “Comprehensive Vocational Education Review (ongoing, year-long)” is also noted.
In launching this review, data and information has been collected in regard to past and current course offerings, student participation, technical skill assessments and teacher schedules. The following staff members met to review the data and to begin shaping recommendations for the CTE program moving forward.
Bob Marshall – Ketchikan High School Principal Sheri Boehlert – Schoenbar Middle School Principal Todd Henke – Ketchikan High School Department Chair Natasha O’Brien – Ketchikan High School Guidance Counselor Robert McClory – Ketchikan High School Guidance Counselor Rick Rafter – Director of Human Resources Shannon Sines – Director of Curriculum
In reviewing the data, staff members deduced:
• Course Offerings (included) – Although a long list of CTE courses are available at KHS, they are limited in the number of Career Clusters or Career Pathways they are aligned to. o Possible Causes: § Lack of consideration of Career Clusters/Pathways when adding courses § Courses added based on staff certification, background or interest o Possible Career Clusters to consider § Information Technology § Health Science § Business Management and Administration
KGBSD Board Meeting Packet Page 34 02-08-2017 • Student Participation (included) – Trend data suggests that fewer students are enrolling in CTE courses, with 8 current course offerings serving less than 10 students in a school year. o Possible Causes: § Lack of 4-year planning prior to high school § Lack of marketing/promotion/recruitment § Course offerings/student interest § Incorrect information posted in KHS Course Catalog (pre-requisites) § Personnel
• Technical Skill Assessments (TSA)/Industry Recognized Credentials (included) – Few courses show any significant number of students passing a TSA or earning a credential. o Possible Causes § Personnel • Staff not properly certified to offer a TSA or credential • TSAs not being administered § Preparation • Students not properly prepared • Curriculum alignment
• Teacher Schedules (included) – Individual staff schedules indicate a low number of student participants in a given class period. o Possible Causes § Master Schedule complications § Low student participation
After reviewing the CTE data, staff members discussed the future of the CTE program at length. An action plan has been developed and is included.

Date: January 27, 2017 Re: Career Exploration Course Proposal
Mr. Boyle
In an effort to provide Kayhi students with CTE courses that are meaningful and relevant, we would like to propose moving the Career Exploration course, which is currently taught to 10th grade students at Kayhi, to the middle school. Here are some benefits to making the move.
• Provides students an opportunity to create a 4 Year Course Plan in 8th grade and enable them to learn about multiple career pathways prior to entering high school. • Allows earlier exposure to interest and aptitude tools and allows them to learn about CTE courses taught at the high school so they can choose a CTE course pathway that fits their interests. • Encourages students to begin taking courses identified on their 4 Year Plan as soon as they begin their 9th grade year. • Encourages students to explore career options through hands on experiences in class at the high school level after they have surveyed career options in middle school.
An EdSource study in 2010, Gaining Ground in the Middle Grades shows that higher- performing middle grades schools had a clear “future orientation.” They design their curriculum and instruction to set the stage for high school and beyond. Requiring Career Exploration in middle school will help students identify their interests, explore career pathways, and begin to make their own personal learning and career plans. This is another way we can help students transition smoothly from middle school to high school.
In addition to moving the Career Exploration course to the middle school, I am also requesting we require 1 CTE credit as a graduation requirement. This would not be in addition to the 22 credits needed to graduate from KGBSD, but would replace the .5 Career Exploration credit as well as .5 from the current 7.5 elective credits required. 7 full elective credits would remain for students to take courses in any subject area they choose.

HARASSMENT, INTIMIDATION AND BULLYING
The Board is dedicated to providing a safe and civil learning environment. Harassment, intimidation and bullying disrupt a student’s ability to learn and a school’s ability to educate. Students and staff are expected to demonstrate positive character traits and values. Conduct and speech must be civil and respectful in order to promote harmonious and courteous relations in the school environment.
(cf. 5137 – Positive School Climate)
Students, staff and volunteers are prohibited from engaging in any form of harassment, intimidation, or bullying while on school property, on school buses, at the bus stop, or at school-sponsored activities or functions. Students who engage in such acts are subject to appropriate disciplinary action, up to and including suspension or expulsion. Staff who engage in acts of harassment, intimidation or bullying are also subject to appropriate disciplinary action up to and including suspension and termination. Volunteers who engage in such acts will be denied the opportunity to volunteer in the future.
To promote an environment free of harassment, intimidation, or bullying, the principal or designee shall take appropriate actions such as removing vulgar or offending graffiti, establishing site rules, and providing staff inservice and student instruction and counseling. Teachers shall discuss this policy with their students in age appropriate ways and assure students that they need not endure any form of harassment, intimidation, or bullying.
The district will provide parent and community information, and age-appropriate student instruction, on how to identify, respond to, and prevent harassment, intimidation, and bullying.
(cf. 5131.5 – Vandalism, Theft and Graffiti) (c.f. 5144 - Discipline) (c.f. 5144.1 – Suspension and Expulsion)

Cyberbullying
All forms of harassment, intimidation or bullying via electronic means, commonly referred to as cyberbullying, are prohibited. Cyberbullying also includes, but is not limited to, other misuses of technology to threaten, harass, intimidate or bully, including sending or posting inappropriate email messages, instant messages, text messages, digital pictures or images, or Web site postings, including blogs. An individual who redistributes a cyberbullying communication can be found in violation of this policy, even if the individual did not author or create the original communication or image.
The district’s computer network, including access to the Internet via that network, whether accessed on campus or off campus, during or after school hours, may not be used for the purpose of harassment, intimidation, or bullying. Users are responsible for the appropriateness of the material they transmit over the system.
In situations in which the cyberbullying originates from a private (non-school) computer or other electronic device, but is brought to the attention of school officials, disciplinary measures may be imposed when the communication:
1. Is of a criminal nature, including but not limited to, threats of violence or harm against staff members, students, or their property; 2. Suggests or advocates physical harm to staff members or students; 3. Causes a student or staff member to experience a substantially detrimental effect on his or her physical or mental health; 4. Causes a student or staff member to experience substantial interference with academic or work performance, or with his or her ability to participate in or benefit from district services or activities; 5. Threatens vandalism to school property; or 6. Creates a significant disruption to the school’s educational mission, purpose or objectives.
Disciplinary action may include, but is not limited to, the loss of student activity eligibility, loss of computer privileges, detention, suspension, or expulsion for those committing acts of cyberbullying. In addition, any kind of threat or hate crime will be reported to law enforcement officials.
Students and staff who believe they have been the victims of cyberbullying, as described in this policy, should not erase the offending material from the system. A copy of the material should be printed and a report made under this policy.

HARASSMENT, INTIMIDATION AND BULLYING (continued)
REPORTING
Students or staff members who have witnessed or have reliable information that a student has been subjected to harassment, intimidation or bullying should report the incident immediately to the principal or his/her designee, who shall promptly initiate an investigation. The investigation shall include an assessment of what actions should be taken, as appropriate, to protect the student who has been found to be the victim of harassment, intimidation or bullying. Such actions may include the provision of support services necessary to permit the student to feel safe and secure in attending school. The Superintendent shall develop procedures to implement this policy.
Response
In determining the appropriate response to students who commit one or more acts of harassment, intimidation or bullying, the following factors should be considered: a. the development and maturity levels of the parties involved; b. the level of harm; c. the surrounding circumstances; d. past incidences or past continuing patterns of behavior; e. the relationships between the parties involved; f. the level of disruption in or interference with the orderly operation of the school.
This policy should not be interpreted to prohibit a reasoned and civil exchange of opinions or debate that is protected by law and Board policy.
(c.f. 5145.2 – Freedom of Speech/Expression)
Conduct that does not rise to the level of harassment, intimidation or bullying may still be prohibited by other policies or rules.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE February 1, 2017
State Board to survey public about education reform First step in meeting Governor Walker’s Alaska Education Challenge
JUNEAU – Alaskans are encouraged to express their priorities for public education reform in a new online survey at https://gov.alaska.gov/education-challenge.
The survey is the first step in the State Board of Education’s participatory process to meet Governor Bill Walker’s Alaska Education Challenge: to establish an efficient, sustainable, and comprehensive system that will provide an excellent education for every student every day.
On Jan. 18, 2017, in his State of the State address, Governor Walker said, “We must do a better job of preparing our youth for the challenges of the future. To meet this challenge, we need to rethink our entire system of public education. Alaskans must be at the heart of this effort.”
The ultimate goal is to graduate students ready for career training and college, whether in the workforce, the military, apprenticeships, technical education courses, or associate degree and bachelor’s degree programs.
“Alaska faces obstacles to student achievement unlike those that exist in any other state in the nation. Alaska’s Education Challenge is to address our student achievement gaps and increase our graduation rate by making sure every student across our state has an equal opportunity to learn and succeed,” said Dr. Michael Johnson, Alaska Commissioner of Education. “Our students, their families, and teachers deserve a focused effort to support the public education system through reform. Though many students in our state are getting a very good education, a large and tragic achievement gap exists.”
The State Board of Education will lead a process of listening, gathering input, and reporting information that will shape recommendations to improve Alaska’s public schools. The board will present its final report to the Governor and Legislature by Dec. 29, 2017.
KGBSD Board Meeting Packet Page 107 02-08-2017 Commissioner Johnson will establish five committees to gather input from a broad range of Alaskans regarding: 1) student learning, 2) educator excellence, 3) modernization and finance, 4) tribal and community ownership, and 5) safety and well-being.
Students, parents, educators, business leaders, tribal representatives, community leaders, and legislators will be invited to serve on the committees, co-chaired by members of the State Board of Education.
The public will be able to follow the process and participate through the Alaska Education Challenge website: https://gov.alaska.gov/education-challenge. All meetings will be open to the public, and meeting documents will be made available online.
“There have been well-meaning efforts in the past to improve our schools,” said James Fields, chair of the State Board of Education. “What will distinguish the Alaska Education Challenge is its comprehensive analysis, well-publicized opportunities for public participation, and strong support from the Governor.”

KGBSD Board Meeting Packet Page 122 02-08-2017 SUPERINTENDENT GOALS - FY 2017
Prevention is better than remediation. School attendance in all grades appears to be the most influential impact on grades and the ability to graduate. In FY 2017, I plan to focus on the following.
STRATEGIC PLAN
Instruction Implementation of new math curriculum, Adoption of Social Studies curriculum, Increase attendance rates through RtI, PBS program monitoring Evaluation of recently adopted Language Arts curriculum
Environment Policy adoptions; Safe Havens School report Policy to support reduction of dropouts; GED Policy to accelerate graduation
Community Negotiations; KEA, IEBW, Administrative Assistants Improve Administrative process in teacher evaluations; staff training
To be successful in these areas STEPP plans for each school and one for the District should be in place and practiced. Staff development for teachers, support personnel and administration should take place. Communications with the Board and public should be on-going and informative.
