Superintendent’s Report...
Happy 2015
It is hard to believe the year 2015 has arrived. The year 2014 certainly went by
quickly. I enjoyed 2014 and I hope all of you enjoyed the year also. I will take this
time to wish all of you a Great 2015. The Class of 2015 graduates on May 17,
2015. They will certainly be missed. May 17, 2015, will be here sooner than the
class realizes. I hope the entire class enjoys the last 5 1/2 months here at good ole
Horton High.

Our Music Programs
Our mid year music programs were wonderful. I’m very proud of our students
who performed and the teachers who lead them during the performances. The students and teachers earned a big pat on the back! Congratulations!
State Budget Profile
On Monday, November 10th, 2014, state fiscal experts estimated there would be
$279 million less in tax revenue this fiscal year than there was originally projected.
They also projected for next fiscal year, which starts July 1, 2015, revenue will
come in $436 million less than was originally estimated. On December 12, 2014, it
was reported the state is facing worsening budget problems. A new state budget
profile produced by legislative staff pointed out the state now faces an 11 percent,
or a $648.3 million revenue shortfall in the next fiscal year. This report shows to be
deeper than the gap reported earlier in November.
We all are facing a huge budget shortfall in the coming years. This shortfall will
affect the finances of all Kansas school districts, including ours. I’m not sure, at
this time, just how much of a loss our district faces but it will be reported to our
school board once it is calculated.
We will continue to stand tall and face our budget problems head on and do our
best to provide a quality education for our students. The USD #430 Board of Education and I have always taken this stance.
I’ll keep all of you informed through this newsletter.

Horton High School News
From the Desk of Mr. Dave Norman, HHS Principal…
A new year…..a new semester!!! As is the case each year, January means the start of a new semester and a fresh start for grades and expectations. It won’t take long to get back on track in the business
of teaching and learning and both staff and students will be working toward ending the school year in
a few months. It is also the time when we start work in planning and preparing for the next school
year. So… the cycle continues….
We will continue to push for increased participation in courses at Highland Technical College as
we feel that this is a great program for our students. Juniors and seniors have the opportunity to spend
half of their day taking technical courses at the Vo-Tech in Atchison, which gives them quite a head
start in finishing a degree or certification when they graduate. And the best part is that this opportunity
continues to be free to our students! We will be advertising this opportunity for our upcoming sophomores, juniors and seniors and will sponsor a school visit in a few months. A new twist to the VoTech situation is that we are combining transportation with Hiawatha. They are providing the bus
transportation and this has been a nice convenience for our district. Thanks to the Hiawatha 415 district for doing this!!!
As the month of January gets rolling, we will be heavily involved in winter activities. Basketball
will be really gearing up for the next few months and we will be continuing with Scholars Bowl as
well as starting Speech/Forensics competitions. These are great opportunities to show off our students’
talents as they compete in the various activities.
In talking with some of the seniors lately, many are coming to the realization that in a very short
time, they will be moving on to new, and hopefully continuing more promising and positive opportunities. In just a few months, they will be considered graduates with a new set of goals and trials to
work through. I am always amazed to watch the panic that some of them exhibit as they realize what
little time they have at Horton High. The good thing that happens for most seniors is that the rest of
their year becomes more focused and they will do what is needed to make sure they graduate.
The high school and district will continue working through the ever-changing process we know as
public education. And as always, we will try to keep you informed as to what changes will be coming
in succeeding newsletters. New Year!!!...... New Start!!!.....Continue Success!!!!.

National Honor Society
The Horton High School National Honor Society will soon be entering
the selection process for new members. The following is information for this
organization and the selection process.
First, National Honor Society is not a scholastic honor roll. There are four
governing principles: Scholarship, Leadership, Service, and Character.
Members selected should rate highly in all of these areas. The selection committee uses the following criteria when considering all eligible students.
Scholarship
Sophomores, Juniors, and Seniors who have a minimum cumulative grade point average of
at least 3.5 are considered for membership. Consideration, however, does not guarantee selection. A candidate scarcely meeting the minimum scholastic standards would have to rate high
in the other areas to be selected for membership.
Leadership
Leadership is figured both on the basis of offices held and on observed leadership. The students provide information on offices held. A non-officer who demonstrates leadership in the
classroom, team, or club, may rate higher than one elected to an office who does not provide
the needed leadership for that office. The student who exercises leadership demonstrates initiative in promoting school activities and is a forerunner in the classroom, at work, and in school
or community activities.
Service
Service is generally defined as being a contributing member of an organization that improves the school, church, or community. A candidate should work well with others and should
be willing to take on difficult or inconspicuous tasks. The student who serves volunteers dependable, well-organized assistance and is willing to sacrifice to offer assistance. Of course,
service and leadership are closely related. One cannot lead without serving.
Character
Character includes positive aspects such as honesty, responsibility, fairness, courtesy, tolerance, and cooperation. The student of character exemplifies these desirable qualities and demonstrates them both inside and outside of the classroom.
All four criteria are interrelated. Membership is granted to candidates who the Faculty
Council feel rate highly in all these criteria. Students are elected by receiving a majority vote
from the Faculty Council. Selection to the National Honor Society is and must be a subjective
process. The selection process is not perfect because of the subjective nature of some of the requirements for membership. The Faculty Council recognizes the importance of their task and
hopefully parents will realize this even if they do not agree with the choices made.
After membership is granted, there will be a formal induction ceremony in March. Any
questions or comments about National Honor Society should be directed to Kerrie Howard, the
National Honor Society sponsor, at Horton High School.

Everest Middle School News
Dear Parents, Students, and Patrons!
Happy New Year! As we begin a new year, can you really believe that is is 2015? It is a time for
new beginnings and opportunities to begin anew. EMS students have already been preparing for the
Geography Bee and the Spelling Bee, both building bees are scheduled for January. Basketball is on
the down hill slide. We have 4 games scheduled for January and the season will end the first week of
February. I have so enjoyed watching the kids play this year. If you have not had the pleasure, check
the calendar. We have home games on the 15th.
One of the greatest concerns I have for our students at this time is their improper use of technology.
Parents, please, monitor what your students are saying on the various social media sites and while texting. Once it is sent or posted, it is out there. It cannot be brought back and forgotten. Some of the
messages that I have read this year could result in criminal charges. Students need to be made aware
of their responsibility for what they say. Most of what I have seen has been sent during the weekend
or after 9:30 of an evening. The school will take action only as any of these messages effect school
behavior and/or academic success.
January’s installment of “The Cowboy Way” supports what I believe our students need; a sense of
honor. To a cowboy, being honorable is an inward and private knowledge that he/she would know the
right thing—always. It would be like having a mental compass that always points yo in the right direction so the right choices are made. Our students sometimes struggle with peer pressure or choosing to
do the honorable thing. Honor is based on being worthy of trust, telling the truth, acting with integrity,
and being reliable. It has been written, “A man who would die for something has everything to live
for.” I would say that to live with honor is to live life to it’s fullest.
Happy New Year and may your year be an honorable one.

INFLUENZA ALERT: There have been cases of diagnosed influenza in our school district since the first of December. This influenza
is highly contagious and can be transmitted by coughing and sneezing. People with influenza can spread it to others to about six feet
away. Flu viruses spread mainly through tiny droplets made when people with the flu cough, sneeze, or talk. These droplets can land in
the mouths or noses of people who are nearby or be inhaled into the lungs.
People can also be exposed to flu by touching a surface or object that has flu virus on it and then touching their mouth, eyes, or nose.
Human flu viruses generally can survive on surfaces between two to eight hours.
You may be able to pass on the flu to someone else before you even know you are sick- as well as while you are sick. Most healthy
adults can infect others beginning one day before symptoms develop and up to a week after becoming sick. Young children and people
with weakened immune systems might be able to infect others for an even longer time. To avoid spreading the flu, it is recommended that persons remain home for at least 24 hours after the fever is gone, however, if you have a child in school that is diagnosed
with influenza it is recommended that that child be completely symptom free before you send them back to school, as they may infect
others for at least a week if not longer. Please keep your children home for a week after being diagnosed with influenza. This will
allow them to be completely symptom free and allow them the rest that they need to get over the Influenza.
HEALTH SCREENINGS: The screenings for the 5th & 7th grade classes will be completed shortly. Once I post the results to their
health care records at school, the screening results will be sent home with your student/s. Please ask your student for the copy of these
results. If you received a hearing or vision referral, please follow-up with a professional in that particular field for further evaluation
and make sure the professional sends a summary of their evaluation back to school so the information may be added to your student’s
health record. The high school 9th and 11 th grade will be screened sometime in January or early February. If you wish a copy of your
student’s screening results, please contact me.
DENTAL SCREENINGS: Oral health is an important part of children’s overall health, and is a critical component in the child’s ability
to learn and succeed in school. In compliance with Kansas State Statute 72-5201, USD 430 will be providing a free dental screening to all
students. Christen Lacey, RDH, who works with the students in our district for their dental needs will be coming to our district during the
month of January to do District Wide Dental Screenings. Christine Tharp, RN, and I will be sending out a notification of dates along with
Opt-Out forms that you may complete and return to school if your student/s already receives dental care and you wish for them to be excluded from this screening. These notices will be sent home during the week of January 5 th thru the 9th. If you have any questions please
feel free to contact Christine or myself at school.
CARBON MONOXIDE: THE INVISIBLE WINTER HAZARD: According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
(CDC), children younger than five years old have the highest estimated rate of carbon monoxide (CO) – related visits to the emergency
room each year among all age groups in the United States.
Nationally, more than 25 children die from CO poisoning every year. In Kansas over 500 people have been hospitalized and four people have died from CO poisoning over the past 10 years. “Carbon Monoxide is a silent killer that often strikes us where we feel secure, in
our homes.” Says Tom Langer, Director of the Bureau of Environmental Health at the Kansas Department of Health (KDHE). “Faulty
heating systems, water heaters, stoves and our cars are leading sources of combustion gases that can quickly overwhelm us and do us
great harm.” For more information on CO poisoning visit www.kdheks.gov/beh/carbon_monoxide.htm.

The character quality for the month of January is PERSEVERANCE.
Perseverance - To persist despite opposition or obstacles. Determination ot keep on going.
Don’t be discouraged by your failures. Remember, the Road to success is paved with failures.
We need to teach children that it is ok if we don’t get something the first time, or second, or third, etc. There
are so many times when something gets hard that we want to give up but if you want to be a winner you have
to keep trying.
People who never gave up…..
Abraham Lincoln ran for a political office and was defeated seven times.
Dr. Suess’s first children’s book was rejected by 23 publishers.
The inventor of Coca Cola only sold 400 bottles his first year.
Babe Ruth struck out more than any player in the history of baseball.
Walt Disney was told by a Kansas City newspaper that it was easy to see by his sketches that he had to talent.
Teaching Children perseverance is tough because we hate to see our children fail but if these men would not
of learned from some of their failures, just think what we would have missed out on.

Charger PTO Fall 2014
It has been a busy and fun fall for Charger PTO. We would like to thank the community for your support of
our annual cookie dough and sales fundraiser. Your support allows us to provide educational support to the
students and staff of HES and EMS.
This fall your Charger PTO has provided a fall educational trip to each grade at Horton Elementary. Kindergarten students toured Shatto Dairy and were able to go bowling in St. Joe. First Graders experienced a
morning at the Kansas Discovery Center and then were given a hands-on-tour at the Horton Fire Station.
Second graders were taken on a behind the scenes tour at Cabela’s and Kansas Speedway, complete with a
trip around the track on their bus! Our third and fourth graders spent a day at the American Royal viewing
educational exhibits and taking in the youth rodeo. These trips are a great way for all of our students to
broaden their world and gain new experiences together.
In November, we welcomed the Elsenpeter Marionettes to perform for the students of HES and EMS and an
evening performance for families. The presentation of Beauty and the Beast shared a unique experience and
art form for our students to see a familiar story in a new way.
