Washington.
KS Pension Reform Bill to Governor
By Gene Meyer
KansasReporter
TOPEKA, Kan. - Kansas
House members sent a compromise plan to more-fully fund
state pensions one step closer
to becoming law Tuesday, even
though it lacked a key feature
many wanted.
The House voted 89-30 to
approve a new financing plan
for the Kansas Public
Employees Retirement System
that passed the Kansas Senate
Monday. The measure now
goes to Kansas Gov. Sam
Brownback for approval.
Brownback, who has named
KPERS' underfunding as one
of the state's most pressing
challenges, is expected to sign
the plan into law.
The plan requires teachers,
state and local government
workers and other plan participants in 2013 to choose
between contributing larger
shares of their salaries to their
KPERS pensions or settling for
a less generously calculated
pension when they retire. It
also accelerates the rate at
which taxpayer contributions to
the plan increase each year
beginning in 2014 and calls for
the creation of a 13-member
commission to come up with a
more fundamental plan for legislators to consider in 2012.
KPERS, which is the state's
largest pension manager, tending retirement money for about
250,000 teachers, workers and
retirees, faces what is officially
projected to be a $7.7 billion
gap between benefits it has
promised members and the
money it will have to pay those
benefits between now and
2033.
The plan did not include a
requirement many House members wanted, including state
House Pensions Committee
Chairman Mitch Holmes, a St.
John Republican, that would
have stopped offering traditional pension benefits to teachers
and goverment workers hired
in 2013 and offered them
401(k)-style retirement savings
plans instead. Such a switch
would limit Kansas' taxpayers
future exposure to funding
shortfalls, but do nothing to
plug the gap that exists now.
"We're not happy with this,
but something has got be done
now," Holmes said.
Holmes and other supporters
say they believe there is a good
chance that the new commission will propose switching the
plan to either a savings plan or
some hybrid that combines
such a plan with some of the
guarantee features of traditional pensions.
Both Brownback, who will
pick five members of the commission, and House Speaker
Mike O'Neal, a Hutchinson
Republican who will pick two,
have indicated they think such
a switch is needed.
Kansas state Rep. Charlotte
O'Hara, an Overland Park
Republican, voted against the
plan, saying she believed the
plan will do nothing to restore
KPERS' financial health.

House Rejects End to State Employee Bonuses
By Rachel Whitten
KansasReporter
TOPEKA, Kan. – A bill to
end bonus payments for certain
state employees who have
worked more than 10 years on
the public payroll was rejected
by the House Friday morning.
The proposal would have
affected workers in the judicial
branch, who currently receive
yearly longevity bonuses of
between $500 for 10 years of
service and $1,250 for 25 years
of work.
Opponents of ending the
payments likened them to the
bonuses that private sector
employees receive around
Christmas time. Rep. Nile
Dillmore, a Democrat from
Wichita, said the money helps
retain employees.
“American businesses know
the cost of retaining good
workers is much less than hiring and training new workers,”
Dillmore said “You don’t want
to have constant high turnover,
all it does is drive costs up.”
According to legislative
researchers, abolishing the
bonuses would save the state
more than $6 million from the
state general fund, and about
$15.1 million from all funding
sources.
Lawmakers who favored the
bill said they would like to
reward state workers based on
merit rather than the number of
years working for the state.
“We need to be increasing
their ability to receive money
from overtime and other ways
of earning income, this simply
recognizes longevity,” said
Rep.
Pete
DeGraaf,
a
Republican from Mulvane,
who carried the bill on the
House floor.

not an high priest which cannot be touched with the

we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in
time of need.”

Agency on Aging Director
Heather Ruhkamp met with the
Board to inform them that she
received information on her KDOT
grant application for SFY 2012 and
it was cut by18%. She also discussed with the Board that as of
July 1, 2011 all drivers have to
have a CDL physical and she has
found that Marysville Clinic and
Community Physicians Clinic are
$129.00 and Seneca Family
Practice are $117.00. The Board
decided to allow the drivers to have
the physical at there own physician
if they so choose and Agency on
Aging Director Heather Ruhkamp
choice. For example, saying “It is
nap time, do you want to lie down
now?” is not really an option if
your rule is everyone will rest at
nap time.
Show respect for children. Talk
to misbehaving children in private,
remind them of reasons for rules,
and discuss what they can do differently.
Catch children being good. All
children want attention. It is better
to give them positive attention for
good behavior than negative attention for misbehavior. Comment on
something positive about each
child, each day. Better yet, strive
for several times a day.
Praise like a good coach instead
of a cheerleader. A cheerleader just
shouts general praise: “What a
great job!” or “What a beautiful
picture.” A good coach tells you
what you’re doing right, uses praise
as a teaching tool, and lets you
know why he or she is proud of
you. If a child sets the table, you
might say, “You did such a good
job setting the table! You put the
spoons and forks in the right place
and remembered the napkins!”
When you look at a child’s painting, you might remark, “This painting just glows with color. You used
blue, green, red, yellow, and
orange. Tell me how you did this!”
Share the good news. Remember
to share children’s good behavior
with others. When children have
done something good, mention it to
other children and to parents.
Use play activities to teach children social skills. Use children’s
books that show how children
resolve problems. Play “what if”
games. Become a character in children’s pretend play and show children how to use good manners and
be kind to the baby doll.
Teach children how to resolve
conflict and problem solve. Help
them recognize feelings, identify
the problem, come up with ideas
for solving the problem, and try
possible solutions.
Teach children how to apologize. Learning how to apologize is
a skill. Young children have a hard
time understanding another child’s
feelings, but by the time they are 4
years old they should begin to recognize apologizing is a good way
to make up for hurting someone
else. Teach preschoolers and
school-age children the four basic
steps of apologizing:
• Look at the other child.
• Say the child’s name.
• Say “I’m sorry.”
• Say why.
Keep it simple: e.g., “Lucas, I’m
sorry I hit you.” With time and
practice, children will not have to
be prompted, and their apology will
be more genuine.
Teach children how to correct
their misbehavior. If a child throws
a bowl of peas onto the floor give
him/her a dust pan and show the
child how to clean it up. If a child
marks on the wall, give him/her a
wet cloth to clean it off.

Home Notes By Susan A. Latta
County Extension Agent
BASIC TOOLS FOR GUIDING
YOUNG CHILDREN’S BEHAVIOR
Children do not grow up on their
own; they need adults to teach
them. They need to know the rules
— what is okay and what is not
okay. As a child care provider, your
knowledge about how children
learn and grow will help you guide
children in ways they can understand at each age level. For example, two-year-olds have limited
understanding and need a lot of
redirection, but five-year-olds can
learn to be good problem solvers.
Here are some basic tips for
guiding
children’s
behavior.
Remember different strategies
work best at different ages.
Keep rules simple and easy to
understand. Discuss rules with children and write them down.
Consider children’s suggestions for
rules. Repeat the rules often. A few
rules that work well with children
include:
• We help each other.
• We take care of our toys.
• We say please and thank you.
• We are kind to each other.
Say what you mean. Use dos
instead of don’ts. Choose your
words carefully, especially when
you are guiding children’s behavior. Keep sentences short and simple. Focus on what to do rather than
what not to do.
• Try saying: Slow down and
walk. Instead of: Stop running.
• Try saying: Come hold my
hand. Instead of: Don’t touch anything.
• Try saying: Keep your feet on
the floor. Instead of: Don’t climb
on the couch.
• Try saying: Use your quiet
voice inside. Instead of: Stop
screaming and shouting.
Talk with children — not “at”
them. Children often don’t hear you
when you are talking (or shouting)
“at” them. You will be much more
effective if you get down on their
level. Look them in the eyes, touch
them on the shoulder, and talk with
them.
Set a good example. Children
watch you all the time. They see
how you talk to other children and
adults. They see how you cope with
anger or frustration. They watch
how you deal with sadness and joy.
They listen to how you say “I’m
sorry.” The way you handle the ups
and downs of life teaches children a
lot about how to behave and get
along with others.
Encourage children to set good
examples for each other. Children
learn a great deal from each other.
Encourage appropriate ways to
share, play, and be kind to each
other.
Give clear, simple choices.
Toddlers can choose between a red
cup and a green cup. Preschoolers
can choose between playing “airport” and “zookeeper.” Give children a choice only when there is a

Forensics Night
By Sam Jones
VHHS Journalism
Not very many people in the
community get a chance to see
the forensics students perform
their pieces. To provide this
opportunity the Forensics class
entertained local community
members for an hour at
Forensics Night on May 3.
Tommy Tryon, jr, Master of
Ceremonies, assisted by Katie
Kinzel jr, and Katie Atkinson,
sr introduced the Festival and
Champs qualifiers as well as
explained forensics competitions.

Welfleet
Whale”
• Jessie Zidek- poetry piece“Mrs.
Stein”
• Ellie Musil- serious solo“Belle
of
Amherst”
• Treg Arganbright and Alex
Laughlin-Improvised
Duet
Acting
(IDA)
• Brooke Claycamp-pro’s“Charles”
Both champs and festival
qualifiers students will be traveling to Wichita to compete at
the state level on May 7th. “I’m
nervous but excited at the same
time. I want to do better than
last year so I’m going stay
focused and try harder. I have
learned from over the season
that the judges like the over the
top exciting pieces. In order to
do better I know that I have to
have fun with the piece.” said
sophomore Brooke Claycamp.
