Over 450 FFA members and advisors partici- pated in this national personal development conference held annually in Wisconsin. The 212 o Conference is a two-day personal development seminar designed for high school freshman and sophomores involved in the FFA organization. 212 o-the temperature at which water boils-will focus on taking students to the boiling point of leadership. At 211 o water is extremely hot, but just one more degree gets us to the next level. These confer- ences focus on student development. Students will be challenged to push the limits. Themes for this conference include: Virtues, Growth and Collaboration. 360 o took students full circle in chapter leadership development. The conference covered every angle for developing action plans for their chapters. Themes for this conference include: Vision and Influence. 360 o conferences focus on chapter development. It cre- ated a new experience specifically for high school juniors and seniors. This conference allows students to polish their leadership and communication skills and learn how to utilize those skills through leadership and community service. “FFA’s personal development conferences are an exceptional opportunity for FFA members to participate in a national conference without leaving their home state,” said Cheryl Zimmerman, State FFA executive Director. “These conferences bring out the very best in students and advisors who participate. It really helps the students focus on who they are and what they can become. We are also excited that this is the first year for this new leadership curriculum offered by the National FFA Organization. Leadership development is a key focus in the National FFA Organization. Helping FFA members develop their leadership skills and focus on who they are and what they can become is key to the mission of the Organization. Members start at the local chapter level in their home high schools and can become active at both the state and national levels. Conference staff members are college students who are former state or national FFA officers. Many staff members have also worked as counselors for the Washington Leadership Conference, FFA’s national leadership seminar held in Washington, D.C. each sum- mer. Premier leadership, personal growth and career success through agricultural education is the mission of the National FFA Organiza- tion and the 212 o and 360 o Conferences are only one of the many opportunities that the FFA organization offers its members to de- velop lifetime leadership skills. The Wisconsin Association of FFA is comprised of 253 local chapters preparing over 19,000 stu- dents in high school and junior high for careers in agriculture. FFA is making a positive difference in the lives of young people, to- day and in the future. The TCAEA Chili Supper was another successful gathering of community and staff to support our students by fundraising for scholar- ships. This was the kickoff of our new big scholarship raffle. Along with the chili, diners also enjoyed a bucket raffle during the event. Tickets for the big raffle drawing, to be held right after Parent/Teacher conferences on February 28 th , will be sold at home events in- cluding sports and concerts. Prizes are $1000 first, $500 second, $250 third and fourth, a quilt, autographed Packer football, and gift cards. Tickets are $5 for one, $10 for three, and $20 for seven. Tri-County Area School District December 2012 Page #2 In September the 1 st graders took a trip to the school forest. We talked about animal habitats and the children turned themselves into living trees. Now in science, we are learning about the different classifications of ani- mals. In October, the students each received a RIF book. They celebrated fall with a costume parade and party. In November, 1 st graders became pilgrims and feasted on their home made butter with crackers and popcorn. We continue to work on becoming good independent readers. We are excited about using the RAZ kids program. Thank you, parents, for encouraging your child to work on this at home as well as at school! From : Mrs. George (first grade teacher) 2nd Graders enjoyed a Thanksgiving meal with their teacher! As I passed by I noticed well behaved students visiting quietly as piano music was piped from the smart board. Mrs. Olson is a teacher to be thankful for. The 3 rd grade had two very special presentations in early November. Mr. Doug Moericke from the Timber Wolf Alliance shared his knowledge of wolves in Wisconsin. We learned a lot about wolf behavior and the difference between wolves, coyotes and foxes. We explored a wolf pelt and wolf tracks. Mr. Moericke showed a very informative slide show that helped us in our wolf research. Two gentlemen from the Stevens Point Elks Club came on November 7 th to give student dictionaries to the entire 3 rd grade. The students were given a short presentation on how to use these special dictionaries. We are very grateful to Mr. Moericke and the Elks Club for these special presentations to our 3 rd graders.

The students learned a lot about what it means to be a veteran, and how important they are to all of us. Be sure to thank a veteran today! Here are a few examples of the fine letters that were written: Dear Veterans, Thank you very much for serving our country. You risked your life for our freedom. I am grateful to you because you fought when I could not. I will honor you very much because you made your country proud. You mean very much to me. A veteran is a person who gives up everything to keep our country free. You are amazing! Yours Truly, Grace Murray Dear Veterans, Thank you for serving our country. I’m thankful for all you do for us. You are very honorable for standing up for what is right. Thank you for risking your life to save our country. I really appreciate it. I love that we have a day to honor you. I want to learn so much about you and be like you someday. I am glad you risked your life just for us. That is so thoughtful of you. Thank you for the freedom our country has. I appreciate it and so does my class, and so does the rest of the country. Sincerely, Rebeccah Dowen Dear Veterans, I really thank you so much for fighting for us and for our freedom. You have risked your lives and the country is safer because of you. I imagine that being a soldier would be a lot of work. I think it would be hard staying away from your family and not knowing when you are going to come home. I appreciate how you soldiers are brave and have sacrificed your time to serve our country. Sincerely, Evelyn Sauceda Dear Veterans, Thank you for serving your country in war, for putting your life in danger for your country. Because of your sacrifice, the USA is still a free country. You make your country proud. You have a lot of spirit and you encourage a lot of young adults. You made it so people in America have peace. You are honorable soldiers, and no matter what position you hold, we are still grateful. You make me proud. God bless you. Sincerely, Isaiah Buchberger Tri-County Students Will Be On WDUX Radio Station!

  • Afterschool Closing Form
    WSD Elementary Out-of-School Learning Programs Emergency Weather Cancellation Plan (PLEASE KEEP TOP HALF OF SHEET) Weather or mechanical breakdowns sometimes require early or emergency dismissal during the school day. District-wide emergency dismissals are announced on the television and radio stations listed below. This Emergency Weather Cancellation Plan addresses those times when there is not an early dismissal and the District has not cancelled all after-school programs, but weather conditions are worsening. Programs offered by the Out-of-school learning programs may announce cancellation of after-school programs (independent of a District decision) to assure safety of students, staff, and volunteers in its programs at the following schools: Hawthorn Hills, Lincoln, Stettin, Thomas Jefferson, Grant, GD Jones and Riverview. This decision will be announced by 1:00 PM on television and radio stations listed below and by phone and/or e-mail via School Messenger. (This may precede a District-wide decision.) If after-school programs must be cancelled, we would like to know that you have made plans for your child(ren). Please complete the form below and return it to your out-of-school Enrichment Coordinator. Discuss the plan with your child/children. It is difficult for students to telephone for instructions at these times, so we will keep a copy of your after-school plan on file. Please plan ahead to assure the safety of your child and inform us of any changes in this plan. It is the responsibility of parents to be attentive to cancellations and to act accordingly to your child’s plan in the event of a cancellation.
