Junior High Football Coach of the Year

JH Football Coach of the Year. This past season marked 42 years

Coach Steffen and “Thank You” for all you do for our students,
athletes, and community!
East Buchanan Community School Facility Update
A community meeting was held on December 10, 2014, in the East Buchanan LMC to discuss the general facts of the possible
facility update. The project would be broken down into two phases that would address needs in safety, industrial technology,
athletics and fine arts.
Phase I would consist of building a new industrial technology classroom and workshop area. Phase I would also have space for
a storm shelter area as a safe room during inclement weather. Phase II would consist of a new gymnasium and renovation of
the old gymnasium to help meet the needs of our curriculum, athletics and fine arts.
Community feedback from the meeting:
1) Have all the facts; 2) Have concrete numbers; 3) Keep the Community informed – Communicate.
For this project to happen it will take a Bond Referendum to pass, which in result will affect our taxpayers.
For information on this project please visit our home district website www.east-buc.k12.ia.us. On the main page is a link - Facility Project/Bond Information. This link has general project information, Phase I, Phase II, Estimated Budget, General Tax Impact
Information, Projects and Tax Rate History, and Bond Information.
Starting in January there will be community lead meetings to discuss the project.

Winter Season!
The winter weather is upon us and as of this writing we have missed one day of school due to fog. Just as a reminder that all
make up days will be added onto the end of the school year. I want to ensure you with severe weather I am always looking out
for the safety of our students and staff.

211 Students!

The winter activities are now in full swing at East Buchanan; unfortunately that also means
colder temperatures. However, the cold weather has not kept our students at East Buchanan
from having success in the classroom. I am happy to report that with the hard work of both our
students and teachers, we had 211 out of 288 students 6-12 achieve the B honor roll or above.

Good Work!

Professional Development at EB
Last newsletter I spoke about BUC Time and its purpose for our students. This newsletter I would like to talk about the focus of our professional
development for the 2014-2015 school year. We are focusing our time developing learning targets and success criteria and connecting these to
the curriculum. What is a learning target or success criteria is probably one of the first things to cross your mind?
Learning targets (I understand statements) let students know what we want them to understand.
Success criteria (I can statements) let students know what they need to do to show us they have learned it.
Serving the communities
of Aurora, Quasqueton,
and Winthrop
It is vital for our students to understand what they are being taught and how they are being assessed. Learning targets and success criteria are
addressing both of these items. The delivery of these vary depending on the classroom. Some possible ways your kids may be receiving are as
follows: Google document, white board, email, check list, or on their assignment.
Published so that the
citizens of the district may
be informed about the
programs and activities
of the East Buchanan
Community Schools.
Please take time to have a conversation with your kids about school and what they are learning. Have them explain what the learning targets and
success criteria are for different classes and how they will know if they have accomplished them. This will give you a better understanding of what
your child is doing and learning while at East Buchanan.

Meetings are held on
the second Wednesday
of each month. District

By: Mike Kerkove, Asbestos Program Manager
The East Buchanan Community School District is required to provide annual notification concerning asbestos in our school buildings.
Our school facilities were initially inspected by a certified asbestos inspector, as required by AHERA (Asbestos Hazard Emergency Response Act). The inspector located, sampled and determined the condition and hazard potential of all material in our buildings suspected
of containing asbestos. The inspection and laboratory analysis records form the basis of the asbestos management plan. A copy of the
management plan is available for your inspection. Please make an appointment during office hours (8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.) if you wish to
review this plan. Copies of the plan may be made at a cost of .15¢ per page.
Periodic surveillance of the areas containing asbestos is conducted once every six months. These surveillance reports then become a
part of the management plan. A three- year re-inspection of all our facilities will be completed in 2016.
The East Buchanan Community School District will continue its in-place management program and will take whatever steps are necessary to ensure that our students and employees have a healthy and safe environment in which to learn and work.
Upcoming Preschool Advisory Committee (Pac) Meetings
The Preschool Advisory Committee (PAC) has been a major influence on our preschool program for the past six years. The PAC has
helped design our program into what it is today – listening to parent input has been our biggest influence. The mission of the East Buchanan PAC is to ensure the EB Preschool provides our children with a solid educational foundation to prepare them for their future.
The dates of the PAC meetings for the rest of the 2014-2015 year are listed below. All meetings are located in the LMC and start at
5:00 pm. Childcare will be provided as well. We welcome all parents with students in the preschool classroom to attend. If you have any
questions, please contact Stacy Marcus at [email protected] or 319-935-3767.

Scholarships and/or Financial Aid:
Check the East Buchanan website www.east-buc.k12.ia.us/. Go to the
Secondary 6-12 Information tab, then to local scholarships. The website is
updated weekly with any new scholarship information. If you are interested
in a particular scholarship, let the guidance office know, we can get the
specific information to you.
FAFSA Forms:
If you were unable to attend the financial aid meeting held on December
17, information is available in the guidance office. The Iowa College
Access Network went through the financial aid process, providing everyone with a booklet for your reference. It is extremely helpful when filling
out the FAFSA form. The FAFSA will need to be completed online, a
worksheet is available in the guidance office to help with this process.
When filing the FAFSA online you will need to request a PIN number at
www.pin.ed.gov, the student and parent will each need a PIN. Please
call my office, 319/935-3367 or the Iowa College Access Network (ICAN),
877/272-4692 if you have questions regarding the FAFSA form or
financial aid.
The Scholastic Book Fair held in the LMC in November was our largest
to date. MANY EB families and staff contributed to its success which
allowed our school to receive nearly $2500 in promotions, books and
other Scholastic items. By earning rewards from Scholastic we are
able to continue to stretch our school budget funding even farther and
provide even more new materials on our shelves to keep our students
interested in reading and learning.
…we are able to continue to stretch our
school budget funding even farther and
provide even more new materials…
New materials mean that we are able to replace older, outdated, or
well-worn materials. THANK YOU for your support of our EB Library
Media Center and its programs!
Dollars for Scholars:
The Dollars for Scholars Committee will be meeting with all seniors on
January 21 at 1:45. We will be explaining Dollars for Scholars and the
application process. Seniors need to attend this meeting, contact Mrs.
McGraw if you have any questions, 319 935-3367.
JUNIORS
A few things you should be thinking about and working
on this month:
If you are planning to take the ACT stop by the Guidance Office for
information. We have study guides or go to www.ICANsucceed.org, or
www.actstudent.org for helpful links.
Begin to research post secondary options; 2-year schools, 4-year schools,
military, or the work force.
Consider volunteering in your community, this is a rewarding experience
and helpful when completing scholarships.
Juniors are allowed 2 college visits. This is a great opportunity to see a
college campus, check out what programs they have to offer, and see if
that college is a fit for you. Stop by the Guidance Office for information on
setting up college visits.
Not all colleges require the ACT, 2 year colleges will accept ACT scores,
but you could also take a COMPASS test. This test can be taken at the
Hawkeye Center in Independence by appointment, their number is
319-334-3131. The following website will help you prepare for the
COMPASS test www.act.org/compass/sample/index.html
FRESHMEN AND SOPHOMORES
Begin thinking about classes for the next year, what is required, what are
you interested in, and what do you need if you are planning to go on to
college. Education after high school doesn’t have to mean a four-year
degree. There are cerificate programs, two-year degrees and programs
that go beyond four years.
We will begin online registration in March. We will explore the I Have A
Plan Iowa website in January/February which gives a great deal of information on careers and how to obtain that career.
MS/HS Parent/Teacher Conferences:
Conferences will be held January 21st from 4:00 until 8:00 P.M. Stop by
and see what your child is doing and how they are doing in their classes.
MIDDLE SCHOOL
Iowa Assessment testing, formerly called ITBS, will be February 10-13,
2015 for grades 3-8. Please keep these dates in mind when scheduling
appointments. Studies indicate that students test better during the regularly scheduled testing time. Students also need a good nights sleep and
breakfast to help get their brains going for the day. The data we receive
from the Iowa Assessments is important to our school district. We use this
information as one indicator of how your child is doing. We also report this
information to the Department of Education in accordance with the No
Child Left Behind guidelines. If you have any questions regarding testing,
please contact East Buchanan Schools for more information.

Grant Update
Last March I applied for a grant from the Buchanan County Community Foundation, which is an affiliate of the Community Foundation of
Northeast Iowa. My goal was to have our grant accepted in order to
create and grow a collection of reading materials for our middle and
high school students that struggle in reading. After having our grant
proposal accepted, we have been building a nice sized collection of
such reading materials. It is important for EVERY reader to be able
to come to the library and feel confident and comfortable in choosing
something to read that they are interested in at their age, as well as at
their current reading level.
After receiving word in June that our proposal was accepted, we have
purchased and processed over 100 books and 13 electronic readers
such as GoReaders and Playaways. These have been available for our
students since early October and they are being well utilized! We have
recently ordered four more GoReaders, three complete book sets and
nine individual books that will add an additional 53 books. This is such
a terrific opportunity for ALL our readers to be able to enjoy literature
and I am extremely appreciative of this grant money and the Community Foundation.
“Speed dating” in the LMC?
“Speed dating” in the LMC? Sure! But with books! This is a concept
new to EB, but one that has taken hold! My BUC Time group was the
first to experience this process of choosing something to read. It went
well and the students seemed to enjoy the activity. A wide variety of
books are placed on different tables and students have a few minutes
at each table to go through their options and take notes on books they
may be interested in reading. As they proceed from table to table they
carry one book with them, being allowed to trade at any table. At the
end of the time each student should have one book they are interested
in to check out. If they still have not found anything - I provide them
with a “blind date” book! I am looking forward to having more classes
and groups come in for some speed dating after the winter break - one
teacher has already “booked” her dates!
Upcoming library events
Upcoming library events include our annual PTO Read-A-Thon at the
end of February, Read Across America & Dr. Seuss’s birthday in early
March, and an Usborne Book Fair in April. Elementary students continue to learn about library topics such as genres, research tools, the
Dewey Decimal System, the electronic card catalog, parts of a book,
proper book care, good fit books, and the valuable resources available
on the Iowa AEA Online site.

Preparing for Cold Weather
The winter weather is here which means Cold Weather. All students
(PK-5) should have a winter coat, snow pants, boots, gloves and a
stocking hat at school. Please double check with your child to make
sure they have the appropriate clothing. Every other Friday we will be
emptying out our lost and found items (gloves, hats, etc) and disperse
them back to the classrooms for students that do not have proper
winter gear. If you are struggling to bundle up your child please let the
office know at 935-3660. We do have some donated apparel on hand.
Having the appropriate snow gear is important for many aspects of
the school setting. Our students go out for recess everyday when the
temps allow us. When temps drop below zero degrees we will keep
them inside, but all other days they will be outside to enjoy the snow
and fresh air. So it is important that they are properly dressed.
It also is important for safety when going to and from school. No one
wants to be stranded in the cold weather without warm clothing.
Always plan ahead and think safety first.
94% of our Parents Attend Conferences
I would like to “thank” all the parents for their support at parent/
teacher conferences that were held in November. Again this year we
had over 94% of our parents attend conferences. This shows great
support towards your child’s education.

Iowa Assessments
Iowa Assessments will be held the week of Feb 9 – 13 for all students
in grades 3-8. Iowa Assessments provide:
• research that improves the practice of educational measurement
• design and development of assessments that provide information
for a variety of purposes and audiences, for example
* educators to inform instruction
* federal, state, and local government to support accountability
* academic institutions to aid decision-making
NAEP Assessment – 4th Grade testing on
Thursday, February 19, 2015
National Assessment of
Educational Progress
East Buchanan has been selected to represent schools across the
nation by participating in the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP). First administered in 1969, NAEP is the largest nationally representative and continuing assessment of what students know
and can do in various subject areas. It is administered by the National
Center for Education Statistics, within the U.S. Department of Education. NAEP is different from state assessments because it provides
a common measure of student achievement across the country. The
results of NAEP are released as The Nation's Report Card, which
provides information about student achievement to educators, parents,
policymakers, and the public.
We had fabulous performances at our K-5 and 6-12 Winter Musicals. All
the kids did a wonderful job, and the support from our community was
overwhelming. Great Job to Mr. Brown, Mr. Landis and Mr. Chesher.

HEALTH AND WELLNESS
Claudia Gillette, R.N. School Nurse
Wellness:
In November the elementary student were offered a healthier snack for the afternoon milk/snack, two days a week. The students are enjoying a bigger
variety of snacks. So far we have had baby carrots, apples, bananas, string cheese and gogurt. In January will be trying broccoli, cauliflower and celery
along with the other choices we have had. The Advanced Food class will be helping to prepare the vegetables for us as they do not come in individual
serving packages.
Dental Screenings:
Kindergarten and 9th grade students please get your dental screening in to the school.
Illness:
Students must start home if they have had a temperature greater than 100 degrees,
vomiting and or diarrhea for 24 hours after the last episode. This will help to prevent the spread of contagious diseases.

Elementary Special Education Students Visit Camp Courageous of Iowa
On December 3rd, Mrs. Aldrich and Mrs. Wilgenbusch's special education classrooms took a field trip to Camp Courageous of Iowa. Camp Courageous
is always very generous in inviting the school for their annual Christmas party. While there the students get to participate in many different activities. When the
students first arrive they are able to have hot cocoa, juice and cookies.They have art activities, wall climbing, miniature golf, parachute games, train ride and the
nature center. Students were able to miniature golf in one of the cabin basements. The train ride took the students around the grounds at Camp Courageous.
After our activities, the students go back to the main lodge, eat lunch and perform Christmas carols or tell jokes to everyone if they choose. Mr. and Mrs. Claus are
also there, so the students get a chance to let Santa know what they want for Christmas. After the students have seen Santa, they get a present to bring home.
Various people have donated the gifts to Camp Courageous that the students receive.
We were very fortunate to be
able to attend this special
day. As we prepared to go,
we worked on our BUCS:
