September 2010 - Hartland Consolidated Schools
Volume 76 Number 7 September 2010 24 Pages Superintendent’s Message Janet Sifferman, Superintendent Welcome to the 2010/2011 school year. We have been busy this summer preparing for our students’ return. You will see several new faces due to the large number of teacher retirements at the close of the last school year. We are very excited to welcome our new staff on board. This summer we began the first phase of our 2010 Bond Issue work. Some classrooms will see new technology and our parking lot and gym lighting has been upgraded. Thank you Hartland community for your support of our 2010 Bond proposal. During these difficult financial times and with significant turmoil involving Michigan’s economy, Hartland Consolidated Schools continues to stay on course and keep its eye on its major objective – to educate and prepare students for the world outside. I am extremely proud that our administrators, employee groups, and support staff, under the calm and measured direction of our Board of Education, continue to work cohesively and cooperatively to provide our students with the best possible education. The cooperation we enjoy is the key to navigating through difficult times. The Hartland community has a tradition of banding together and functioning as a family with all stakeholders putting children first. We at Hartland Consolidated Schools are fortunate to be a part of this, and are eagerly looking forward to another successful school year. Hartland Cheer Teams Offer a BIG Thank You! The Hartland High School Cheer Teams recently participated in a Stunt Camp on June 24 sponsored by Champion Cheer. Approximately 250 girls attended this camp held at Hartland High School to sharpen their stunting skills and learn new techniques in the field of cheerleading. As a fundraiser, the Hartland Teams offered concessions to the girls in attendance. The girls would like to extend a big thank you to Hartland Kroger and the Brighton Costco Store who each donated items for the girls to sell. The teams were fundraising for camps they attended during the summer. The Varsity Girls attended camp at the University of Kentucky and the Junior Varsity Team attended camp at Alma College. Each camp offered opportunities for the girls to practice stunting, advance their knowledge in the field of cheerleading, and bond as a unified team for the competitive season.

They are: 1) The right to inspect and review the student’s education records within 45 days of the day the District receives a request for access. a. Parents or eligible students should submit to the school principal [or appropriate school official] a written request that identifies the record(s) they wish to inspect.

Parents or eligible students may ask Hartland Consolidated School District to amend a record that they believe is inaccurate or misleading. They should write the school principal, clearly identify the part of the record they want changed, and specify why it is inaccurate or misleading. b. If the District decides not to amend the record as requested by the parent or eligible student, the District will notify the parent or eligible student of the decision and advise them of their right to a hearing regarding the request for amendment.

Our high school students continue to record a 95% Average Daily Attendance rate while being credited with a .45% Drop-Out Rate (less than ½ of 1 percent). The high school has earned its second consecutive “A” on the State Report Card and once again earned Adequate Yearly Progress under the No Child Left Behind legislation. This year the high school will have a visit by the Advanced Education / North Central Accreditation program for a Quality Assurance Review. The result of this visit will be shared with the community. All in all, I am extremely proud of our students, teachers, support personnel and community for the support in how we go about learning and preparing for post secondary opportunities. As the year begins, I am asking parents to remember that while it may seem a great time to allow students more autonomy in their decision making process, I have found that the reverse is true. There will be many distractions such as the transition to earning credit for graduation, driver education, additional extracurricular opportunities, dating, new friends, jobs, etc. as your child finishes their final years in public education. Please remember to support them, ask many questions about what is happening in school, review their homework, and stay connected to what is happening at school. Parent-Connect, the high school web page www.hartlandhighschool.us and Community Life should help you stay “in the know.” If you have questions please do not hesitate to contact the high school at 810.626.2200. Chuck Hughes, Janet Sifferman, Kim Roberts, Emmalie Quella, Nathan Oakes and Jean Eckman Day of Caring Logo Design Winner version b —center Congratulations to HHS student Emmalie Quella for taking first place in the Livingston County United Way Day of Caring Logo Design Competition! High school students from across Livingston County were invited to submit a logo design to give the Day of Caring Logo a fresh, new look. The competition was structured to emphasize to students the importance of doing research about the organization, the necessity of ‘brand marketing’, working with real-life deadlines and working to the customer’s satisfaction. The winning design was then incorporated into a final graphic to be used in upcoming marketing pieces. Congratulations also goes out to third place winners Drew Wagner, Hailey Pleshakov, Briana Tamas, Andrew Wilkinson, Alex Mitchell, and Sam Stark.

Students planning on participating in any school sports team or club this year must have a current physical (dated after April 15, 2010) on file in the Middle School office in order to participate (forms are available in the Middle School office and will be mailed with student schedules). There is a participation fee for interscholastic sports and school sponsored clubs. A one-time $95 fee will allow students to participate in any school team and/or club for which they otherwise qualify (this one-time fee covers all sports and clubs throughout the year). Tardy To School Policy Please help your child do his or her best. Attendance is a crucial factor for student academic success. Students tardy to school (i.e. late to Homeroom) must be signed in at the front office by a parent or legal guardian in order for the tardy to be considered excused. Unexcused tardies to school will result in disciplinary action. Excessive parent excused tardies may be referred to the Livingston County Attendance Officer. Parent Connect The busses, hallways, classrooms, and commons will soon be filled with students again, as in this photo from a past beginning of the school year. Welcome From The Principal On behalf of the faculty and staff of Hartland Middle School at Ore Creek, welcome to the students and families new to our school as well as to those returning for another school year. We have been working hard to continue to provide the best education possible for our students.

We plan to mail schedules and other information home the week of August 23. Parent Connect allows parents with Internet access to monitor their children’s grades. If you had a password assigned last year, it remains the same. Contact Karen Wilson at [email protected] for assistance. Phone Messages To Students In School It can be very disruptive to call students out of class to deliver routine messages. Please make every effort to communicate after school plans with students before they begin their school day. We appreciate your help in keeping our school the best learning environment possible. Safety In The Parking Lot The morning “drop off” time before school and afternoon “pick up” time after school means that students who are being driven to and from school must negotiate a very busy parking lot. PLEASE DRIVE SLOWLY AND CAUTIOUSLY and put the safety of our students ahead of time issues.

Whether it was dancing around at the sock hop or running around the track for the Fall Fun Run this group of kids always had a smile on their faces. They also found time to have fun while learning during the reading exchange and on Mackinac Island. We thank you for all the memories that you have created over the last 5 years here at Creekside and wish you good luck at the Farms!! Ms. Murphy’s Class is hanging out with the Eagle Mascot before the Fall Fun Run. The students learned how to use flint rocks to crate sparks like the French Voyageurs on Mackinac Island. During the middle school reading exchange the students find some time to smile for the camera.

Family visits, games, stories and everyone’s favorite foods are always on the agenda. On the top of the menu is Grandma’s Lemon Coconut Cake. Grandma always makes the traditional cake from her old family recipe. This year, however, the cake tasted a little on the salty side, perhaps a half cup full of salty. Though the family was disappointed over the cake, of more concern was Grandma’s confusion with the receipt and her similar confusion about the loved ones around her. Could something be wrong with grandma’s mental state? One might say that for an elder person a little forgetfulness or confusion is normal, but when do you know if there is a serious problem, such as dementia? An online article from Family Doctor.org outlines some common symptoms in recognizing dementia: “Dementia causes many problems for the person who has it and for the person’s family. Many of the problems are caused by memory loss. Some common symptoms of dementia are listed below. Not everyone who has dementia will experience all of these symptoms. Recognizing Symptoms of Dementia Recent Memory loss. All of us forget things for a while and then remember them later. People who have dementia often forget things, but they never remember them. They might as you the same question over and over, each time forgetting that you’ve already given them the answer. They won’t even remember that they already asked the question. Difficulty performing family tasks. People who have dementia might cook a meal but forget to serve it. They might even forget that they cooked it. Problems with language. People who have dementia may forget simple words or use the wrong words. This makes it hard to understand what they want. Time and place disorientation. People who have dementia may get lost on their own street. They may forget how they got to a certain place and how to get back home. Poor judgment. Even a person who doesn’t have dementia might get distracted. But people who have dementia can forget simple things, like forgetting to put on a coat before going out in cold weather. Problems with abstract thinking. Anybody might have trouble balancing a checkbook, but people who have dementia may forget what the numbers are and what has to be done with them. Misplacing things. People who have dementia may put things in the wrong places. They might put an iron in the freezer or a wristwatch in the sugar bow. Then they can’t find these things later. Changes in Mood. Everyone is moody at times, but people who have dementia may have fast mood swings, going from calm to tears to anger in a few minutes. Personality changes. People who have dementia may have drastic changes in personality. They might become irritable, suspicious or fearful. Loss of Initiative. People who have dementia may become passive. They might not want to go places or see other people.” Dementia is caused by change or destruction of brain cells. Often this change is a result of small strokes or blockage of blood cells, sever hypothyroidism or Alzheimer’s disease. There is a continuous decline in ability to perform normal daily activities. Personal care including dressing, bathing, preparing meals and even eating a meal eventually becomes impossible. What can family members do if they suspect dementia? An appointment with the doctor or geriatric clinic is the first step to take. Depending on the cause and severity of the problem there are some medications that may help slow the process. Your doctor may rec- ommend a care facility that specializes in dementia and Alzheimer’s. These facilities offer a variety of care options from day care with stimulating activities to part or full-time live-in options. Sometimes if patients tend to wander off, a locked facility is needed. In the beginning family members find part time caregivers for their loved one. At first, loved ones need only a little help with remembering to do daily activities or prepare meals. As dementia progresses, caregiving demands often progress to 24 hour care. Night and day become confused and normal routines of sleeping, eating and functioning become more difficult for the patient. The demented person feels frustrated and may lash out in anger or fear. It is not uncommon for a child or a spouse giving the care to become overwhelmed and discouraged. Professional home care services are an option to help families in the home. These providers are trained and skilled to help with dementia patients. Don’t forget care facilities as well. It may be the best loving care a family member can give is to place heir loved one in a facility where that person is safely monitored and cared for.

I hope that your summer was filled with great fun, lots of reading, plenty of rest and relaxation, and that you are ready to begin another awesome year at Lakes. Our teachers and staff have been busy preparing their classrooms and the building, and we are anxious to begin the new school year with all of you. We have quite a few changes this year at Lakes, including our starting and ending times. School will begin at 9:05am now and will end at 3:55pm. This is a 10 minute shift from previous years, however, students will continue to receive the same amount of important instruction time as in the past. We will also be losing several of our teachers due to either retirement or other assignments within the district. Congratulations to our 2010 Lakes retirees: Mrs. Joyce Johnson, Mrs. Maggie Shrier, Mrs. Debbie Karr, Mrs. Kay Knoeferl and Mrs. Diane LaGuire-Quinn. We appreciate all their wonderful service to the Lakes Family and wish them all the best as they pursue other exciting adventures. We will miss them dearly! Congratulations to our own Mrs. Dotty Selix and Mrs. Jenna Furr who will be taking a year off of their current assignments to participate in a special project for the Hartland district. They have been chosen to be Intervention Coaches for all of the Hartland elementary buildings, where they will support and coach our K-6 teachers in the areas of reading and writing. We are proud of them as they embark on this important initiative and know that they will have a great impact on literacy instruction throughout the district. Congratulations also to Mrs. Lisa Eagloski, on her marriage this summer. Her new name is Mrs. Dennis and she has also moved from teaching second grade at Lakes to teaching Kindergarten at Lakes. Mrs. Dennis has lots of experience at this level as she taught kindergarten and first grade for several years at the Round School. We are also pleased to welcome several new teachers to the Lakes. Coming from Creekside Elementary we have Mrs. Mary LaPointe who will be teaching in the Media Center, Mrs. Lisa Villar who will be returning to Lakes and will teach second grade, and Mrs. Madeline Atreo (formerly, Mrs. Madeline Bouck) who will be teaching kindergarten. We also have Mrs. Tara Bosely who comes from Round School who will be teaching Reading Recovery and Reading Support. We are so happy to have all of these quality teachers join our Lakes family. Finally, we will be hiring three new teachers to fill two first grade vacancies and one teacher to fill a fourth grade vacancy over the summer. We will probably have them all in place by the time this issue of Community Life comes out, but are in the process of interviewing at the time of this writing. There are spectacular teaching candidates out there and I have no doubt that we will find top notch teachers to fill these positions, as is the standard in Hartland and at Lakes Elementary. You will receive a letter from me sometime near the end of August, concerning teacher assignments for the new school year, as well as other important information to know before the first day. Some important dates to remember are: September 1: Kindergarten Open House: 4:30 PM – 6:00 PM September 7: First day of school for all students As always, I have missed you all over the summer and can’t wait for school to begin again! Enjoy the rest of your vacation and I will see you soon.

Nearly thirty years ago, Hartland opened the program and it still exists today because of the strong philosophy and support from the Board of Education and the district administration. The program, located on the campus of the HESSC (Hartland Educational Service Support Center), has successfully graduated hundreds and hundreds of students that may have otherwise quit school without LEGACY. The program boasts an impressive 85% graduation rate, truly one of Livingston County’s, and Southeast Michigan’s, best kept secrets. New to LEGACY this coming year will be physical education & health instructor, Mr. Scott Lemay. Mr. Lemay is a graduate of Eastern Michigan University and is very active sports and coaching. He will make a great addition to our team of highly qualified instructors and staff. The staff at LEGACY is second to none and has served the youth of Livingston County with pride and much success, connecting with each student to foster a relationship built on educational success. As a scheduling option for Hartland High School students; LEGACY has provided a small, warm, and friendly environment for at-risk students to thrive. A typical student referral to LEGACY includes students that have not had success in the traditional school and are in need of a more personal setting to learn and grow. Over the years, the LEGACY Alternative School has boasted several special activities and projects that allow for student creativity and success, which include; art classes, disc golf team, basketball, and job skill training, just to name a few. The educational program in place at LEGACY is delivered differently than the traditional school setting, allowing for personal differences and individual support. This past year, we proudly sent another 48 graduates into the world. We want to invite you to come and visit to see if LEGACY is the right place for you or your high school age student.

Our purpose is to promote the preservation of natural habitats while fostering an understanding and appreciation of birds and other wildlife. We’ll begin our 2010-11 season with some live birds from the Howell Nature Center: an eagle, a rough-legged hawk, a kestrel and two or three owls. It is an unforgettable experience to see these birds close up. Their eyes, made to see minute details at long distances, are rather arresting when gazing across a room. While the birds are sizing us up, we’ll be learning about their habitats, habits, and how they came to be residents at the Nature Center. Upcoming events include a photographic tour of the Galapagos Islands on October 5, and our November 9 meeting will feature “Journey of the Cranes” starring the sandhill cranes of the Waterloo Recreation Area.

Report cards are in for the mentoring program Big Futures facilitated by Big Brothers Big Sisters of Livingston County. Because of a grant provided by Community Foundation of Livingston County, the agency was able to provide 125 elementary students a mentor in the 5 school districts. Nineteen high school mentors volunteered their time once a week at Round Elementary school. The goal was to provide a positive and supportive experience to children in need of improvement in their academic performance and positive social interactions. From November through March, “Bigs and “Littles” meet at the designated location in an elementary school right after school is let out for the day. Once a week for an hour, mentors and mentees work on homework and play board games which teach cooperation and problem-solving. A Big Brothers Big Sisters Case Manager is there to supervise the mentoring sessions. At Round Elementary, 19 youth participated and completed the evaluation. Ninety percent of them felt their grades had improved. Seventy-three percent felt their interest in school was better. Eighty-four percent said their friendships were better and 64% felt they were getting along with those at home better. Big Brothers Big Sisters is hopeful that funding for this program will be obtained for the 2010-2011 school year. For more information call 517.546.1140.

The scouts of Pack 380 had an awesome time building and launching their rockets. We would like to send a very special THANK YOU to the family of Mr. and Mrs. James Germaine for letting our scout’s blast off the rockets on their farm. Our pack is again scheduled for a Submarine Overnighter. This will take place in October. The boys will have the opportunity to sleep on a retired World War II Submarine. This is one of the many exciting activities that are planned for this upcoming year. Our Round Up will again be held at Round Elementary, during the Open House. We look forward to welcoming many new boys to the pack during the Round Up! Incorporating learning with fun events is a part of what scouting is all about. Any boy, grade 1-5, is invited to join our Pack for lots of fun while learning some valuable life skills. Contact Tom McMullen, Cubmaster, 248-887-6062, [email protected] for more information. Girls Scout Troop 41133 Congratulations to the young ladies of Troop 41133! In June, the girls completed their time as Brownie scouts and participated in a ceremony to “Fly-Up” to Junior scouts. They also completed and earned their Bridge to Junior Girl Scouts Rainbow. The girls receiving their Rainbow were Brooke Bommarito, Madison Cheney, Hailey Darling, Olivia Davenport, Ashley DiNobile, Kaylee Furge, Paige Harde, Jocelyn Hankins, Sarah Klink, Rachel Ohrt, Briana Schumann, Erin Vimr, Sydney Wesley and Lauryn Zvoch. In the fall, the new Juniors will begin another chapter in their scouting adventures by helping their community and taking on new challenging activities. Lakes’ Cub Scout Pack 385 Lakes’ Cub Scout Pack 385 had a great summer, participating in the Memorial Day Parade, then celebrating the end of the school year with a picnic. Many boys attended the Cub Scout Day Camp in Brighton, and a large number also attended the Resident Camp at Camp Munhacke. A great time was had by all! We welcome everyone back to school – and extend an invitation to all 1st-5th grade boys at Lakes and Farms. If you are interested in Scouting, we’d love to have you join our Pack – watch for the fliers that will be sent home early in the school year! Scouting is a great way to meet other families, to learn valuable skills and to just have fun with events like the Pinewood Derby, Paper Airplane Fly-Ins, field trips, camp-outs and the like. Boy Scout Troop 380 Troop 380 wrapped up the school year with a successful fundraising golf outing – the community support was outstanding! We thank everyone for their participation and generosity: your support helps fund our troop’s activities! These young men are truly striving to be our future leaders. June continued to be a busy month, as six Scouts were elected to the Order of the Arrow (Cameron Comeau, Will Houtman, Sean McCarthy, John Moraitis, Zach Piontek and John Rembisz). Nearly the entire troop then headed off to camp at Cole Canoe Base, where they earned a number of merit badges (which included Wilderness Survival, Emergency Preparedness, Fish and Wildlife Management, Wood Carving and Leatherworking). The Scouts also earned a number of camp awards – with special congratulations going to Dan Gallagher for 1st place in Archery and to the entire troop for being recognized as the “Honor Troop” – awarded to the troop that exemplifies the best community service, camp participation and adherence to Scouting values. Activities died down a bit in the summer, but we did have two Scouts finishing up their Eagle requirements and another three steadily working on their Motorboating Merit Badge (fun!). Boy Scouts is open to all boys who have completed the 5th grade. You do not need to have participated in Cub Scouts (in fact, our most recent Eagle was never a Cub Scout). If you are interested in joining, please contact Scoutmaster John Rembisz at 517-545-5668 for more details. We typically meet Monday evenings from 7-9 pm. Girl Scouts Receive GOLD Award Victoria Buelow and Sarah Vicary have gone the distance in Girl Scouting and earned their Gold Award. The Gold Award is the highest award a Girl Scout can achieve. Both young ladies have earned it by developing a service project that helped the Safe Town Program run by Hartland’s Community Education. This project entailed the designing and building of two new buildings, a replica of the Hartland Music Hall and Bank as well as updating the existing buildings. They ladies had to create a budget, fund raise and then enlist support of their peers to paint and build the structures. Victoria started Girl Scouts in kindergarten at the Lakes Elementary Daisy troop . Sarah joined scouts in 1st grade in the Grand Rapids area, transferring to the Round troop in 2000. The ladies met at the Farms where their Junior troops merged. In the 6th grade Victoria and Sarah started working at the Safe Program as volunteers. The Safe Town Program is for children 5 years old entering Kindergarten. The children learn about fire, road, bus and stranger safety. As part of their project a scrapbook was put together outlining the activities that take place at Safe Town. Victoria and Sarah have successful completed all of the Award Levels in scouting Bronze, Silver and now the Gold. The Scouts were honored along with several of their peers on May 16th at the annual Girl Scouts Heart of Michigan Celebration of Leadership.

Actors will be asked to prepare a one to two minute memorized monologue of their choice – not from the script. Membership selection for Encore will be determined through audition and interview by the Encore Committee. All students (ages 8-18), regardless of previous experience, are encouraged to apply. Determining factors for selection are: talent, potential, a strong desire to participate and commitment to the program by both student and parent. Auditions will be evaluated in the areas of memorization or improvisation, vocal projection, movement, eye contact and facial expression. A parent must attend the audition and interview with their child. Mark your calendars for Hartland’s Heritage Day on September 18. Encore Youth Theater will be holding a costume sale at the Hartland Music Hall from 9:30 am to 4:00 pm.

The goal of the ODP tryout was to identify and develop soccer players capable of competing at Olympic and International levels from the State of Michigan. The boys that attended the tryout were put through an extensive array of soccer drills and scrimmages while being judged by coaches from throughout the State of Michigan. At the end of the second day of tryouts, 26 boys were chosen to continue on training in hopes of making the final cut for the Michigan ODP Team. The boys trained together in November, 2009 and once again in January, 2010. Following the last training session, cuts were made and a team of 18 boys were chosen to represent the State of Michigan at the Region II ODP Camp in Overland Park, Kansas the week of July 6, 2010. Region II ODP is comprised of 14 states from the mid west. Each state sends their best players to Camp to be evaluated by the National and Regional U.S. Soccer Coaching Staff. If chosen, they could be invited to attend other regional events throughout the year. Noah Kleedtke, a 7th grader at Ore Creek Middle School, has been chosen for the 1997 Michigan ODP Soccer Team. He is very excited to represent the State at the Regional Camp and looks forward to playing in front of soccer coaches from all over the mid west. Noah currently plays for the Michigan Wolves U13 Soccer Team. He has always loved the sport of soccer and hopes to continue playing it for many years to come. Good luck to Noah and all the other ODP players that will be traveling soon to Regional Camp to represent our State. Boot Camp Fitness for Women Still Running Strong Hartland Community Education’s Boot Camp Fitness for Women is heading into its third year and still running strong. This multi-faceted program combines fitness along with nutritional guidance and trainer support to help women of all fitness levels reach their goals. Whether you’re new to fitness or haven’t worked out in years, if you are looking for support, encouragement and motivation then Hartland Boot Camp Fitness is for you. Boot Camp is a four-week program with new sessions running continuously. Campers meet as a group with the trainers twice per week for a great workout with plenty of variety. Boredom is never an issue! Campers are allowed an additional two classes of their choice per week from the group fitness schedule. Comments from a Boot Camper: “This class is a life-saver. I am stronger, more energetic, and much happier. This is not an “easy-way” to better health but it’s the only thing that’s worked for me-and I’ve been trying to lose weight for the past 10 year!” Patti McRae Many of our students who are new to Boot Camp tell us that they have read about the program and have contemplated joining for a very long time, but they were nervous and not sure it they would fit in. If this is you; if you’re looking for that little push; if you want to re-claim your life through fitness and proper nutrition; if you want the encouragement and support of women who are going through the exact same things; if you’re looking for help from certified trainers who have been motivating and supporting women for years, then wait no longer. We’ve listened to your feedback and made a few changes to the program. Sessions are now shorter, only 4-weeks running continuously through the fall and more affordable-only $99. This way you can join whenever your busy schedule allows. Classes are currently forming for the Fall Session and we’re happy to announce that we have added a morning Boot Camp to the schedule that will include free childcare. Comments from a Boot Camper: “I joined Boot Camp to lose weight and ended up changing my life. I got ‘me’ back.” Sue Fitzpatrick If you have any questions regarding Boot Camp Fitness for Women then contact the Hartland Community Education office at 810.626.2150 and they will be happy to put you in touch with a trainer.

In the past, this age group has been included in Aqua Tots. However, some young swimmers have already taken that class, or their swimming skills have advanced beyond Aqua Tots. Because of safety concerns due to the limited attention span of this age group, parent and child will work together to learn as much as their child’s unique developmental abilities can take them. The class is held in the 86-degree pool and limited to 5 children. Please note that Pre-beginner and up classes are limited to age 4 and older, because they are the first class a young swimmer does without a parent. Call the pool office at 810.626.2279 for more information or visit our website at www.hartlandschools.us and follow the link to the aquatic center. www.hartlandgymnastics.com Xtreme Flips Birthday Parties Open Gym Cheer Gymnastics 9525 Highland Rd.
