We are proud of the advantages and opportunities offered to our students. The mission of La Harpe schools is accomplished through the joint efforts of the School Board, Administration, Teachers, Parents, Community, and Students. We want the community to be proud of La Harpe and for our students to uphold the principles of our school. Along with the academic learning offered here, we hope the students will learn a sense of responsibility and justice so that their years at La Harpe School will be happy and successful and in their years beyond school they will be responsible citizens. This handbook is a statement of the policies, traditions, and practices governing La Harpe schools. This handbook of information is prepared for all students, teachers, and parents as a guide in matters which we must understand for good citizenship and efficiency in running the school. All handbook and school rules apply to all school-sponsored events. Many questions you may have can be answered by the information given here. Any situation not specifically covered in this 3 handbook is left to the discretion of the administration. We welcome the opportunity to help you at La Harpe Schools. 1.0 INTRODUCTORY INFORMATION 1.0 School Operations During a Pandemic or Other Health Emergency This handbook procedure is meant to apply generally to any pandemic or other health emergency and should be supplemented with other relevant and timely information. A pandemic is a global outbreak of disease. Pandemics happen when a new virus emerges to infect individuals and, because there is little to no pre-existing immunity against the new virus, it spreads sustainably. Your child’s school and district play an essential role, along with the local health department and emergency management agencies, in protecting the public’s health and safety during a pandemic or other health emergency. During a pandemic or other health emergency, you will be notified in a timely manner of all changes to the school environment and schedule that impact your child. Please be assured that even if school is not physically in session, it is the goal of the school and district to provide your child with the best educational opportunities possible. Additionally, please note the following: 1. All decisions regarding changes to the school environment and schedule, including a possible interruption of in-person learning, will be made by the superintendent in consultation with and, if necessary, at the direction of the Governor, Illinois Department of Public Health, local health department, emergency management agencies, and/or Regional Office of Education. 2. Available learning opportunities may include remote and/or blended learning. Blended learning may require your child to attend school on a modified schedule. 3. Students will be expected to participate in blended and remote instruction as required by the school and district. Parents are responsible for assuring the participation of their child. Students who do not participate in blended or remote learning will be considered truant. 4. All school disciplinary rules remain in effect during the interruption of in-person learning. Students are subject to discipline for disrupting the remote learning environment to the same extent that discipline would be imposed for disruption of the traditional classroom. 5. Students and parents will be required to observe all public health and safety measures implemented by the school and district in conjunction with state and local requirements. 6. During a pandemic or other health emergency, the school and district will ensure that educational opportunities are available to all students. 7. School personnel will work closely with students with disabilities and other vulnerable student populations to minimize the impact of any educational disruption. 8. Students who have a compromised immune system, live with an individual with a compromised immune system, or have a medical condition that may impact their ability to attend school during a pandemic or other public health emergency should contact school officials.

Mr. Rod Cox – Co Supervisor, School of Rural Management, Charles Sturt University Abstract This research focuses on an Australian agribusiness supply chain, the Australian Beef Supply Chain. The definition of the Australian Beef Supply Chain is the chain or sequence of all activities from the breeding property to the domestic or overseas consumers. The beef sector in Australia is undergoing rapid change because of globalisation, a highly competitive beef market (local and export), quicker production cycle and delivery times and consequently reduced inventories, a general speed-up of the rate of change in the business environment, the trend toward more outsourcing of activities, and the rapid development of IT.

For your patience, love, inspiration, and silliness. This may not change the world, but I hope it helps our understanding of it a bit better. ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS First, I want to thank my committee members: Dr. Gretchen Busl, Dr. Dundee Lackey, and Dr. Genevieve West. I appreciate all of your thoughtful comments, recommendations, and the discussions we have had throughout the dissertation process, as well as all of those that came before it. Without your brilliance, support, and patience, I do not know that this would have ever made it off the ground, much less become a completed project. I would like to extend a huge thank you to my fellow Graduate Teaching Assistants in the First-Year Composition program for allowing me to visit your classrooms for recruitment, as well as all of the encouragement throughout the process. I am also grateful to all of those who participated in the study and trusted me to get them through a semester long research project without taking too much time away from their own personal educational goals. It was definitely a huge learning process for me; I hope it was a positive learning one for all those involved.

  • 2020–21 Commencement Program
    Commencement UNIVERSITY OF COLORADO BOULDER MAY 6, 2021 One Hundred Forty-Fifth Year of the University NORLIN CHARGE TO THE GRADUATES The first commencement at the University of Colorado was held for six graduates on June 8, 1882, in the chapel of Old Main. It was not until 40 years later, on September 4, 1922, that the first summer commencement was held. Since the first commencement in 1882, the University of Colorado Boulder has awarded more than 350,000 degrees. The traditional Norlin Charge to the graduates was first read by President George Norlin to the June 1935 graduating class. You are now certified to the world at large as alumni of the university. She is your kindly mother and you her cherished sons and daughters. This exercise denotes not your severance from her, but your union with her. Commencement does not mean, as many wrongly think, the breaking of ties and the beginning of life apart. Rather it marks your initiation in the fullest sense into the fellowship of the university, as bearers of her torch, as centers of her influence, as promoters of her spirit. The university is not the campus, not the buildings on campus, not the faculties, not the students of any one time—not one of these or all of them. The university consists of all who come into and go forth from her halls, who are touched by her influence, and who carry on her spirit. Wherever you go, the university goes with you. Wherever you are at work, there is the university at work.

  • Exemplar Texts for Grades
    COMMON CORE STATE STANDARDS FOR English Language Arts & Literacy in History/Social Studies, Science, and Technical Subjects _____ Appendix B: Text Exemplars and Sample Performance Tasks OREGON COMMON CORE STATE STANDARDS FOR English Language Arts & Literacy in History/Social Studies, Science, and Technical Subjects Exemplars of Reading Text Complexity, Quality, and Range & Sample Performance Tasks Related to Core Standards Selecting Text Exemplars The following text samples primarily serve to exemplify the level of complexity and quality that the Standards require all students in a given grade band to engage with. Additionally, they are suggestive of the breadth of texts that students should encounter in the text types required by the Standards. The choices should serve as useful guideposts in helping educators select texts of similar complexity, quality, and range for their own classrooms. They expressly do not represent a partial or complete reading list. The process of text selection was guided by the following criteria: Complexity. Appendix A describes in detail a three-part model of measuring text complexity based on qualitative and quantitative indices of inherent text difficulty balanced with educators’ professional judgment in matching readers and texts in light of particular tasks. In selecting texts to serve as exemplars, the work group began by soliciting contributions from teachers, educational leaders, and researchers who have experience working with students in the grades for which the texts have been selected. These contributors were asked to recommend texts that they or their colleagues have used successfully with students in a given grade band. The work group made final selections based in part on whether qualitative and quantitative measures indicated that the recommended texts were of sufficient complexity for the grade band.
