School District of Black Hawk

August/September 2017

Message From The Principal

Welcome parents and students to Black Hawk Schools, and the 2017-18 school year. I hope all of our families enjoyed their time this summer with their children, and have made many great memories. We look forward to working with you and doing our best to serve your student’s educational needs. We are very proud of our small school community, and believe that we can offer opportunities that will help make your children’s experience here a positive one.

Please make sure to check out our school’s website and access the student handbooks that are posted online. These handbooks are linked under the parents/students tabs at the top of the page. The handbooks have information dealing with our schedules, grading policies, procedures, and behavioral expectations. If you a question on something in the handbook, please make sure you contact me at the school office.

We have a new reading curriculum that we are introducing to 5K students to 2nd grade this year. It is called Superkids, and we are very excited at what the research has shown in regards to this reading curriculum. We hope that it pays dividends with your early readers. Academic success is based on students being able to read fluently in order to be able to comprehend, and process information as they get older. As with anything, the more practice a person gets at something, the better they will be. It is so important for parents to read with their children at home. Listening to them read, or having them listen to you read, is an im- portant activity. Ask your children questions about what they are reading in regards to setting, plot, characters, author’s intent, etc. This will be a fun and productive activity for you and your children. They grow up so fast, before you can blink your 6 year old will be 16 years old.

The high school will have a change in their final exam practices for this school year. We have collected feedback from former students and parents over the past couple of years, and we have learned that many favor having all students take final examina- tions in their courses. Therefore, all students in high school will be taking final exams in their first semester courses. There will be no final exam attendance waiver for first semester. However, Black Hawk High School will have a final exam waiver policy for second semester. Please refer to the student handbook for details.

We believe that teachers need time to discuss student progress and instructional methods with their peers. This year, the school board is allowing us to use the second Monday of each month, for late start collaboration time. The first late start will be on Monday, September 11. Starting times for classes will be pushed back two hours on these days, similar to a late start due to emergency weather. Doors for students will be open at 9:45 a.m. and classes will begin at 10:10 a.m. on these days. These have been added to the school calendar, which you can access on our school website.

We look forward to another exciting school year. As always, the quality of your experience is equal to the quality of attitude and effort put into it. We have great students at Black Hawk, and our very proud of what they have and will accomplish in 2017-18.

Thank you to the class of 2017 for allowing me to speak at the graduation ceremony this past year and thank you to all of those who attended to show support for the graduates. I have been asked by many how I thought of the “Wear your Sunscreen” speech that I gave. To inform, it is actually based and derived from the lyrics of the song “Everybody’s Free to Wear Sunscreen” by the artist Baz Luhrmann. Many of the thoughts and language I used were from this song, with my Black Hawk experiences and Class of 2017 memories of lyrics being added in. By no means do I want to take credit for or come off as plagiarizing this song. There is great life advice in the lyrics that I felt pertained very well to the Class of 2017. I highly recommend you take the time and listen to it, and remember...wear your sunscreen.

Black Hawk Track & Field Wrap Up

With the end of the school year, things get busy. However, I wanted to share some results from the end of the 2017 track season. Haley Gertsch placed in the top 6 in three events at Conference. With her performance, she earned All-Conference in the 100m dash (3rd; 13:44), the 400m dash (2nd; 1:01.54), and the 800m run (4th; 2:39). Haley also was the only Black Hawk athlete to advance from Regionals to Sectionals this spring. She had the honor of running the 400m dash at the Sectional Meet in Bangor, where she placed 7th. Although small in number, I'd like to thank the seven high school athletes who finished what they started: Haley Gertsch, Noah Metz, Derek Stib, Trinity Fitzgerald, Grace Neff, Karl Seffrood, and Jared Vosberg. Many of them set numerous Personal Records throughout the season, and never gave up. End of the season awards were given to Derek Stib--Most Dedicated and Most Improved, Jared Vosberg-- Most Valuable, and Haley Gertsch who was given a "Coach's Award" for earning all three awards. Haley, Derek, Trinity, Grace, Karl, and Jared also earned Varsity letters! Thanks for the memories! --Coach Rynes FFA News Middle School FFA Quiz Bowl Competition held at the Alliant Energy Center in Madison, Wisconsin from June 12 through Thursday June 15. It gives me great pleasure to announce the Black Hawk FFA Members won the contest! I believe this is the first time in the long standing history of the Black Hawk FFA that this has ever happened. These members competed at the District level back in January for a chance to move on to the sectional level. In March they competed at the Sectional Contest for a chance to represent Section 4 and South West Wisconsin as the team competing in Madison in June at the State Contest. For your reference, Section 4 stretches from Prairie Du Chien south to the Illinois boarder and across to South Wayne...and all of the surrounding miles in between. I believe this is the 10th consecutive year the Black Hawk FFA has been the team representing Section 4 at the State Level Contest. Of the 10 teams here, Black Hawk finished first defeating Waupun, Sauk Prairie, and Amery. This is a HUGE accomplishment with countless hours of hard work and dedication to studying important facts, dates, and influential people all tied to the FFA History. Congratulations to the members. These 5 individuals will be recognized at the Third General Session on stage in front of thousands of FFA Members and guests!

3-Year Old Screenings:

Early childhood screening helps a school district identify children who may benefit from district and community resources available to help in their development. Early childhood is an important time of rapid learning and growth. With the increasing recognition of the early years as critical in a child’s development, schools are evaluating children at younger ages to determine their strengths and concerns in important activities, allowing time for strengthening these concerns and helping all children be as ready for school as possible. Early Childhood Screening is a FREE service available for all children, even if home- schooling or private school is the family’s choice.

What is Early Childhood Screening? It is a careful, simple check of your child’s growth in all areas – physical, developmental and emotional. Early Childhood Screenings are conducted to ensure that all young children are well-equipped and ready for learning and that families are aware of resources in their school and community. It helps parents see how their child is progressing compared to other children of the same age. In general, screening provides a way for parents to learn more about their children.

The results of the screening will be reviewed with the parent or guardian, and any follow-up recommendations will be discussed. Screening appointments take approximately 30 minutes and are scheduled once your child turns three. To set up an Early Childhood Screening for your child you can contact Linda Figi, ECH/4K Teacher directly at (608) 439-5444 ext. 223.

How To Participate: Individuals can purchase yard lines before the season or during the season. Yard lines are designated East and West. For example, E49 and W49. Yard lines acquired are good for the entire 2017 football season. The cost of purchasing a yardline:

1. $20 for a random draw. 2. $50 for a specific pick on double yard lines (E49 and W49 for example)

Individuals can purchase their yard lines at the high school office, during the home varsity football games, at the Vault bar in South Wayne, or at Marty’s Village Inn in South Wayne.

Chances To Win: There will be 2 chances to win $50.00 at each home game. At the conclusion of the first and third quarters, participants will win $50.00 if the ball remains on the yard line that they have drawn or chosen. Ex., you have drawn E49 and the ball is placed on the E49 yard line at the end of the first quarter.

Purpose: Running a quality football program with 35-45 participants requires funding. With the soaring cost of equipment and supplies, the Warrior football team needs additional sources of revenue to maintain the quality of its program. Black Hawk Varsity Football 2017 Game Schedule

The School District of Black Hawk has established the following guidelines for playing time for athletes. The district philosophy establishes different philosophies at the varying competitive levels.

Black Hawk Playing Time Philosophy: The Coaches Purpose: The coach is to provide an opportunity for student/athletes to have a positive experience. The coach should focus on developing sport specific skills, teamwork, sportsmanship, and self-regulation. The coach shall communicate her/his expectations with the students, parents, and other key stake holders. The coach should be open and honest with athletes and parent/guardians. The coach should be sensitive and compassionate to the student/athlete’s perspective.

Playing Time Guidelines (School Sponsored Sports):

Middle School: Focus on skill development Focus is not on winning Work to provide all student/athletes an ample amount of playing time

Junior Varsity: Focus on skill development Winning is still not #1 focus, winning does take a small role. Work to provide all student/athletes an ample amount of playing time

Varsity: Coach’s discretion Winning Becomes a main focus Best players play the most – Assuming the following Eligibility Following team/school rules Meeting Coaches expectations Strive to find playing time for other athletes Outcome of game is well in control Work other athletes into games when there is a significant point differential Seek opportunities to work athletes in throughout the game

Filing a Grievance related to Playing Time The District would strongly encourage parent/guardian and students to discuss their con- cerns with each other before either the parent/guardian or child approaches the coach.

Guidelines: All discussions about playing time should involve the following parameters Allow for a 24 hour period to pass after a game Be pre-arranged – set a time to meet with the coach

Parent and student should meet with the coach first (all individuals involved shall) *The district would support a student approaching the coach on their own accord* Be respectful Be honest Refrain from discussing other athletes

If the parent and student are not satisfied with the explanation/result then they can proceed through the next chain of command in the following order, using the same parameters: Athletic Director Administration School Board

Thank you to the parents, students, and staff of the Black Hawk School District for giving me the opportunity to work for

you and your children the past four years. Whether I taught your children general music, led them in a choir, directed them

in a play or musical, shared fun activities in my flexi schedule, or ran clock/announced at your children's basketball,

volleyball, or competitions, I am truly thankful for the opportunity to work with your children and the community.

I am leaving the district for a full time position in Coleman, WI teaching band and general music.

Please continue to support the music and theater departments. These are life-long skills that can become hobbies.

Thank you for the fantastic four years and Go Warriors!

BLACK HAWK SCHOOL DISTRICT BOARD OF EDUCATION WASB CODE: 411.1

BULLYING The Black Hawk School District is committed to providing a safe, caring, respectful learning environment for all students and staff and strictly enforces a prohibition against bullying.

DEFINITION: “Bullying” can include, but is not limited to: Intimidation and/or harassment such as teasing, put-downs, cruel rumors, false accusations, hazing, name-calling or making threats; Social alienation, exclusion and isolation such as shunning or spreading rumors; Extortion; Written notes, phone calls or electronic messages that are offensive, hurtful, slanderous, threatening, embarrassing, intimidating, insulting, degrading, or stereotyping; Verbal aggression or verbal assaults which are offensive, hurtful, slanderous, threatening, embarrassing, intimidating, insulting, degrading, or stereotyping; Nonverbal or emotional threats or intimidation; Any act, attempted act or threat of physical aggression such as assaults on a student or attacks on a student’s property; Any act which threatens or intimidates any person or group because of sex, race, religion, national origin, color, disability, sexual orientation, age, or other protected status.

“Bullying” includes aggression or hostile behavior that is intentional and involves an imbalance of power between the bully and the bullied. The behavior is typically repeated over time.

PROHIBITION: “Bullying” behavior by students and staff is prohibited whether it is of the nature of student(s) to student(s), staff member to staff member, staff member to student or student to staff member. Bullying is prohibited at school, on school premises, during school sponsored activities, on school buses and at bus stops, or through the use of electronic, computer, and telecommunications messaging devices (cyber bullying).

COMPLAINT PROCEDURES: It is considered a responsibility of all students and staff members to watch for and report acts of bullying in any of the above-described situations to a member of the school staff or administration. Students are requested and encouraged to report acts of bullying to a school staff member, building principal, or at a minimum a parent or other adult. All school district staff members are required to report acts of student bullying to their building principal or designee.

All reports are to be taken seriously. School staff and administrators will support students and coworkers making such reports and protect against any potential retaliation for making such a report.

An investigation to determine the facts will take place immediately or as soon as practicable in order to verify the validity and seriousness of the report.

Filing a report in good faith will not reflect upon the individual’s status, nor will it affect his or her grades if the complainant is a student or employment status by the District if the complainant is an adult staff member.

CONSEQUENCES: Where it is determined that students participated in bullying behavior in violation of the policy, the school may take disciplinary actions including suspension, expulsion and referral to law enforcement for legal action when deemed appropriate. Employees found to have participated in bullying behavior, or having become aware that bullying was taking place and failed to take action or to report the behavior, are considered to be in violation of the prohibition expressed by the policy and, therefore, subject to disciplinary action consistent with the relevant collective bargaining agreement or, for non-bargaining unit employees, consistent with the relevant contract or handbook.

LEGAL REF.: Sections 118.02(18) Wisconsin Statutes 118.164(2) 120.13(1) APPROVED:

FOOD SERVICE INFORMATION

With the start of the new school year, there will be some changes within the food service program.

First, the lunch prices have increased. Lunch will be $2.55 for ECH-6th grade, and $2.90 for 7th-12th grade.

Secondly, the payment information is a follows:

Skyward is the computerized prepayment system for school meals in our district. This is a debit balance system where funds are placed in advance on the account and purchases are drawn against the balance. The program is not a credit system. Students are issued a 4-digit pin number, which is assigned to them when they first enter the district. Our policy requires all family accounts have a positive balance in order to purchase meals, extra milk, or a la carte items.

If a family account balance reaches a low balance, a weekly email/computerized phone call will be sent out to the parents. Please send a payment to school when you get this low balance or a negative account balance call.

You can check family account balances through the Family Access portal on our website. If you have any questions on your family account balance, please call Audrey Wells at 439-5400, ext. 110. PUBLIC RELEASE NATIONAL SCHOOL LUNCH AND BREAKFAST PROGRAMS This is the public release that we will send to: The Monroe Times, South Wayne and Gratiot Post Offices, Woodford and First National Bank at Darlington/Gratiot, and the South Wayne Food Pantry on August 7, 2017. RELEASE STATEMENT The School District of Black Hawk today announced its policy for children unable to pay the full price of meals served under the National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program. Each school office and the central office has a copy of the policy, which may be reviewed by any interested party. The following household size and income criteria will be used for determining eligibility. Children from families whose annual income is at or below the levels shown are eligible for free and reduced price meals. FAMILY SIZE INCOME SCALE For Determining Eligibility for Free and Reduced Price Meals or Milk

ANNUAL INCOME LEVEL MONTHLY INCOME LEVEL Free Reduced Price Free Reduced Price Family Must be at or below Must be at or between Must be at or below Must be at or between (Household) Size figure listed figures listed figure listed figures listed 1 $15,678 $ 15,678.01 and $22,311 $ 1,307 $ 1,307.01 and $1,860 2 21,112 21,112.01 and 30,044 1,760 1,760.01 and 2,504 3 26,546 26,546.01 and 37,777 2,213 2,213.01 and 3,149 4 31,980 31,980.01 and 45,510 2,665 2,665.01 and 3,793 5 37,414 37,414.01 and 53,243 3,118 3,118.01 and 4,437 6 42,848 42,848.01 and 60,976 3,571 3,571.01 and 5,082 7 48,282 48,282.01 and 68,709 4,024 4,024.01 and 5,726 8 53,716 53,716.01 and 76,442 4,447 4,447.01 and 6,371 For each additional household member, add + 5,434 + 5,434 and +7,733 + 453 + 453 and + 645

Application forms are being sent to all homes with a notice to parents or guardians. To apply for free or reduced price meals or free milk, households must fill out the application and return it to the school (unless notified at the start of the school year that children are eligible through direct certification). Additional copies are available at the office in each school. The information provided on the application will be used for the purpose of determining eligibility and may be verified at any time during the school year by agency or other program officials. Applications may be submitted at any time during the year. To obtain free or reduced price meals or free milk for children in a household where one or more household members receive FoodShare, FDPIR, or Wisconsin Works (W-2) cash benefits, list the FoodShare, FDPIR or W-2 case number, list the names of all school children, sign the application, and return it to the school office. For the school officials to determine eligibility for free or reduced price meals or free milk of households not receiving FoodShare, FDPIR or W-2 cash benefits, the household must provide the following information requested on the application: names of all household members, total number of household members, and the adult signing the application form must also list the last four digits of his or her Social Security Number or mark the box to the right of “Check if no SSN”. Also, the income received by each household member must be provided by amount and source (wages, welfare, child support, etc.). Under the provisions of the free and reduced price meal and free milk policy, the Food Service Administrative Assistant will review applications and determine eligibility. If a parent or guardian is dissatisfied with the ruling of the official, he/she may wish to discuss the decision with the determining official on an informal basis. If the parent/guardian wishes to make a formal appeal, he/she may make a request either orally or in writing to: William Chambers, 202 East Center St., P.O. 303, South Wayne WI 53587, (609) 439-5400. If a hearing is needed to appeal the decision, the policy contains an outline of the hearing procedure. If a household member becomes unemployed or if the household size changes, the family should contact the school. Such changes may make the household eligible for reduced price meals or free meals or free milk if the household income falls at or below the levels shown above, and they may reapply at that time. Children formally placed in foster care are also eligible for free meal benefits. Foster children may be certified as eligible without a household application. Households with foster children and non-foster children may choose to include the foster child as a household member, as well as any personal income available to the foster child, on the same application that includes their non-foster children. The information provided by the household on the application is confidential.

Dear Parent/Guardian:

Children need healthy meals to learn. The School District of Black Hawk offers healthy meals every school day. Breakfast costs $1.20 and lunch costs $2.55 for children in ECH – 6th grade. Breakfast costs $1.45 and lunch costs $2.90 for children in 7th - 12th grade. Your children may qualify for free meals or for reduced price meals. Reduced price is $.20 for breakfast and $.40 for lunch. This packet includes an application for free or reduced price meal benefits, and a set of detailed instructions. Below are some common questions and answers to help you with the application process.

1. WHO CAN GET FREE OR REDUCED PRICE MEALS?  All children in households receiving benefits from FoodShare, the Food Distribution Program on Indian Reservations (FDPIR)], or W-2 cash benefits are eligible for free meals.  Children in households that receive Medicare benefits may qualify for free or reduced price meals.  Foster children that are under the legal responsibility of a foster care agency or court are eligible for free meals.  Children participating in their school’s Head Start program are eligible for free meals.  Children who meet the definition of homeless, runaway, or migrant are eligible for free meals.  Children may receive free or reduced price meals if your household’s income is within the limits on the Federal Income Eligibility Guidelines. Your children may qualify for free or reduced price meals if your household income falls at or below the limits on this chart. FEDERAL ELIGIBILITY INCOME CHART For School Year 2017-2018 Household size Yearly ($) Monthly ($) Weekly ($) 1 22,311 1,860 430 2 30,044 2,504 578 3 37,777 3,149 727 4 45,510 3,793 876 5 53,243 4,437 1,024 6 60,976 5,082 1,173 7 68,709 5,726 1,322 8 76,442 6,371 1,471 Each additional person: 7,733 645 149

2. HOW DO I KNOW IF MY CHILDREN QUALIFY AS HOMELESS, MIGRANT, OR RUNAWAY? Do the members of your household lack a permanent address? Are you staying together in a shelter, hotel, or other temporary housing arrangement? Does your family relocate on a seasonal basis? Are any children living with you who have chosen to leave their prior family or household? If you believe children in your household meet these descriptions and have not been told your children will get free meals, please call the School District of Black Hawk at (608) 439-5371, ext 100.

3. DO I NEED TO FILL OUT AN APPLICATION FOR EACH CHILD? No. Use one Free and Reduced Price School Meals Application for all students in your household. We cannot approve an application that is not complete, so be sure to fill out all required information. Return the completed application to: the Food Service Administrative Assistant, 202 East Center St., P.O. Box 303, South Wayne WI 53587.

4. SHOULD I FILL OUT AN APPLICATION IF I RECEIVED A LETTER THIS SCHOOL YEAR SAYING MY CHILDREN ARE ALREADY APPROVED FOR FREE OR REDUCED PRICE MEALS? No, but please read the letter you got carefully and follow the instructions. If any children in your household were missing from your eligibility notification, contact the Food Service Administrative Assistant, 202 East Center St., P.O. Box 303, South Wayne WI 53587, (608) 439-5400 ext. 110.

5. If your household has automatically qualified for reduced meals based on Medicare, we encourage you to complete an application to potentially qualify for free meals based on household size and income. 6. DO I NEED TO FILL OUT AN APPLICATION IF MY CHILD ATTENDS A COMMUNITY ELIGIBILITY PROVISION SCHOOL (CEP)? If your child attends a school that participates in CEP, receipt of free breakfast and lunch meals does not depend on returning this application. However, this information is necessary for other programs and may be used to determine if your household is eligible for additional benefits.

7. MY CHILD’S APPLICATION WAS APPROVED LAST YEAR. DO I NEED TO FILL OUT A NEW ONE? Yes. Your child’s application is only good for that school year and for the first few days of this school year, through October 13, 2017. You must send in a new application unless the school told you that your child is eligible for the new school year. If you do not send in a new application that is approved by the school or you have not been notified that your child is eligible for free meals, your child will be charged the full price for meals.

8. I GET WIC. CAN MY CHILDREN GET FREE MEALS? Children in households participating in WIC may be eligible for free or reduced price meals. Please send in an application.

9. WILL THE INFORMATION I GIVE BE CHECKED? Yes. We may also ask you to send written proof of the household income you report.

10. IF I DON’T QUALIFY NOW, MAY I APPLY LATER? Yes, you may apply at any time during the school year. For example, children with a parent or guardian who becomes unemployed may become eligible for free and reduced price meals if the household income drops below the income limit.

11. WHAT IF I DISAGREE WITH THE SCHOOL’S DECISION ABOUT MY APPLICATION? You should talk to school officials. You also may ask for a hearing by calling or writing to: William Chambers, 202 East Center St., P.O. Box 303, South Wayne, WI 53587, (608) 439-5400.

12. MAY I APPLY IF SOMEONE IN MY HOUSEHOLD IS NOT A U.S. CITIZEN? Yes. You, your children, or other household members do not have to be U.S. citizens to apply for free or reduced price meals.

13. WHAT IF MY INCOME IS NOT ALWAYS THE SAME? List the amount that you normally receive. For example, if you normally make $1000 each month, but you missed some work last month and only made $900, put down that you made $1000 per month. If you normally get overtime, include it, but do not include it if you only work overtime sometimes. If you have lost a job or had your hours or wages reduced, use your current income.

14. WHAT IF SOME HOUSEHOLD MEMBERS HAVE NO INCOME TO REPORT? Household members may not receive some types of income we ask you to report on the application, or may not receive income at all. Whenever this happens, please write a 0 in the field. However, if any income fields are left empty or blank, those will also be counted as zeroes. Please be careful when leaving income fields blank, as we will assume you meant to do so.

15. WE ARE IN THE MILITARY. DO WE REPORT OUR INCOME DIFFERENTLY? Your basic pay and cash bonuses must be reported as income. If you get any cash value allowances for off-base housing, food, or clothing, it must also be included as income. However, if your housing is part of the Military Housing Privatization Initiative, do not include your housing allowance as income. Do not include any combat pay resulting from deployment as income.

16. WHAT IF THERE IS NOT ENOUGH SPACE ON THE APPLICATION FOR MY FAMILY? List any additional household members on a separate piece of paper and attach it to your application.

17. MY FAMILY NEEDS MORE HELP. ARE THERE OTHER PROGRAMS WE MIGHT APPLY FOR? To find out how to apply for FoodShare or other assistance benefits, contact your local assistance office or call 1-800-362-3002.

If you have other questions or need help, call (608) 439-5400 ext 110.
