Lunch Pricing is now requiring schools to charge an average lunch price equal to<br />

In other words, the federal government is requiring all school districts to raise<br />

P.A.M.—Online Grades<br />
JOSEPH BADGER BOARD OF EDUCATION <strong>2011</strong><br />
BHS and BMS parents continue to<br />
have access to a online grade system<br />
called P.A.M. (Parent Assist Module). This system allows parents access<br />
to student information (grades) via the Internet. We believe that this<br />
communication tool has provided a valuable link between home and<br />
school and will increase parents’ awareness concerning the academic<br />
progress <strong>of</strong> their children. Teachers and parents can now work together<br />
to ensure the success <strong>of</strong> all students. If you have not received a<br />
username/password please contact your child’s guidance counselor.<br />
Parents <strong>of</strong> fifth graders will receive a username and password at<br />
orientation, August 18, <strong>2011</strong>.<br />
Credit Flex—<strong>Joseph</strong> <strong>Badger</strong> Board <strong>of</strong> Education Policy #811.10<br />
The <strong>Joseph</strong> <strong>Badger</strong> Board <strong>of</strong> Education recognizes that an effective<br />
educational program is one that provides opportunities for students to<br />
customize aspects <strong>of</strong> their learning around their respective needs and<br />
interests. Credit Flexibility is one method to motivate and improve<br />
student learning by allowing access to an increased number <strong>of</strong> resources,<br />
customization <strong>of</strong> individual students needs and the use <strong>of</strong> multiple<br />
measures <strong>of</strong> learning. Credit flexibility shifts the focus from traditional<br />
“seat time” learning to learning by/from performance.<br />
Students can earn units <strong>of</strong> high school credit based on a individually<br />
approved credit flexibility plan. The intent <strong>of</strong> credit flexibility is to meet<br />
increased expectations for high school graduation in response to<br />
globalization, technology and demographics due to family mobilization.<br />
21st century skills require students to be culturally diversified thus a<br />
knowledge base can be achieved through completing traditional<br />
coursework, testing out or showing mastery <strong>of</strong> course content, pursuing<br />
educational option(s) and/or individually approved options or any<br />
combination <strong>of</strong> the forementioned. This policy is in accordance with<br />
O.R.C. 3313.60.<br />

August meetings begin at 5:00 p.m.). Special Meetings are scheduled<br />
as needed. The time and location <strong>of</strong> all Special Board meetings are<br />
announced to the media at least 24 hours in advance.<br />

EXPLORE Test Results: 2010-<strong>2011</strong><br />
BMS 8 th grade students<br />
BHS Basketball<br />
Explore test results are reviewed individually with all<br />
eighth grade students at <strong>Badger</strong> Middle School.<br />
Students’ scores are reflective <strong>of</strong> their progress in English, Math,<br />
Science and Social Studies. The tests also look at college readiness,<br />
plans after high school and career possibilities. It is never too early to<br />
begin the discussions <strong>of</strong> career(s) and to begin the exploration process<br />
<strong>of</strong> the ever changing work world. Each student is given the score<br />
sheet, test copy and “using Your EXPLORE Results” booklet to take<br />
home. If your son/daughter is an eighth grader, please go through<br />
these results together and discuss potential career options. <strong>Badger</strong><br />
Middle School was selected to take part in this testing through the<br />
Eastern Ohio P-16 Partnership for Education grant. More information<br />
can be found at the website www.explorestudent.org.

BADGER ELEMENTARY MOVES TO 6 WEEK GRADING PERIODS<br />
Following careful consideration and much input from parents, the county<br />
<strong>of</strong>fice (TCESC) and parent groups, <strong>Badger</strong> Elementary School (BES) has<br />
moved to a 6-week grading period effective <strong>2011</strong>-<strong>2012</strong> school year.<br />
Academics has been and continues to be the top priority for BES<br />
particularly, when early intervention has been proven to produce the<br />
most positive academic results. The 6-week grade reporting period is the<br />
school’s continued effort to keep parents informed about the academic<br />
progress <strong>of</strong> their children. The 6-week grade reporting period also<br />
provides an opportunity for teachers and parents to intervene early and<br />
<strong>of</strong>ten with at-risk students and students with special needs. A schedule<br />

Total revenues have decreased drastically because <strong>of</strong> the most recent<br />
reductions in state aide. TO THIS POINT, THE JOSEPH BADGER SCHOOL<br />
DISTRICT IS PROUD OF CONTROLLING COSTS THROUGH ADVANCE PLANNING<br />
TO INCLUDE PERSONNEL AND OPERATIONAL SAVINGS WITHOUT SACRIFICING<br />
STUDENT SERVICES. The district will enter the <strong>2011</strong>-<strong>2012</strong> school year<br />
with student services typical <strong>of</strong> past years:<br />
• 100% Pre-K-12 busing<br />
Coach Kochemba discussing<br />
strategies with the eighth grade<br />
team. (right) Seventh grade team<br />
members during a time out.<br />
Fiscal Outlook<br />
School Districts across Ohio are still reeling from Governor Kasich’s<br />
FY<strong>2012</strong>-2013 budget plan. The Governor’s new biennium budget has a<br />
major impact on educational funding, i.e. state aide. You can see the<br />
effects <strong>of</strong> the new budget on the <strong>Joseph</strong> <strong>Badger</strong> School District,<br />
according to the chart below:<br />
New Budget<br />
FY FY10 FY11 FY12 FY13<br />
Total Revenues 8.2M 8.0M 7.8M 7.5M<br />
• 100% K-12 extra-curricular activities available with NO PAY TO<br />
PARTICIPATE<br />
• Continue with the fourth year <strong>of</strong> the ongoing Computer<br />
Technology Initiative, to now include all grade 9 and 10 core<br />
curriculum courses. Each student and all staff members will now<br />
have access to a personal laptop computer on a daily basis thus<br />
grades 3-10 now have daily use <strong>of</strong> hands-on technology<br />
• All Pre-K-12 curriculum <strong>of</strong>ferings will remain intact for the <strong>2011</strong>-<br />
<strong>2012</strong> school year<br />
• The expansion <strong>of</strong> Instrumental Music to include Grade 5 will<br />
continue<br />
• BMS Gifted Curriculum remains in place<br />
• All Day Every Day Kindergarten/Enrichment remains intact<br />
• Pre-K will continue as a “not for pr<strong>of</strong>it” program<br />
• Elementary Enrichment for grades 3 and 4 students will continue<br />
• BHS Advanced Placement Curriculum will continue with the<br />
addition <strong>of</strong> AP Psychology<br />
• Grade 8 students will continue to have an opportunity to take<br />
three courses for BHS credit: French I, Algebra I, and Intro to<br />
Physics and Chemistry<br />
As the District strives to control costs and continue its lowest millage in<br />
Trumbull County, the Board <strong>of</strong> Education will provide student services<br />
within those revenues generated by the federal, state and local<br />
governments.

Mrs. Gruver (Speech Teacher) and Miss<br />
Lundy (4 th grade teacher) started a book<br />
club this year. Once a week, during recess,<br />
kids went to Ms. Lundy’s room to read,<br />
talk about books and test on Reading<br />
Counts. In May the kids decided to do a<br />
play called "The Clever Turtle." They made<br />
all <strong>of</strong> the costumes, props and backgrounds<br />
for the play. They performed the<br />
play for kindergarten, first grade and<br />
fourth grade.<br />

One application serves for both breakfast and lunch.<br />
• Who can receive free / reduced meals? Children in households with at least one person (including<br />

Yes<br />

must submit a new application, due September 11, <strong>2011</strong>, unless you are notified that your child is directly<br />
certified through the State <strong>of</strong> Ohio.<br />

<strong>of</strong>ficials. You also may ask for a hearing by writing or calling: Dr. David D. Bair, Superintendent, 7119<br />

apply for Ohio SNAP or other assistance benefits, contact your local assistance <strong>of</strong>fice or call 877-852-0010.<br />
The <strong>Joseph</strong> <strong>Badger</strong> School is concerned about the sensitivity <strong>of</strong> student lunch status. All students check out<br />

The Richard B. Russell National School Lunch Act requires the information on this application.<br />
You do not have to give the information, but if you do not, we cannot approve your<br />
child for free or reduced price meals. You must include the social security number <strong>of</strong> the<br />
adult household member who signs the application. The social security number is not required<br />
when you apply on behalf <strong>of</strong> a foster child or you list a Supplemental Nutrition Assistance<br />

on Indian Reservations (FDPIR) case number or other FDPIR identifier for your child or<br />
when you indicate that the adult household member signing the application does not have<br />
a social security number. We will use your information to determine if your child is eligible<br />
for free or reduced price meals, and for administration and enforcement <strong>of</strong> the lunch and<br />
breakfast programs. We MAY share your eligibility information with education, health, and<br />
nutrition programs to help them evaluate, fund, or determine benefits for their programs,<br />
auditors for program reviews, and law enforcement <strong>of</strong>ficials to help them look into violations<br />
<strong>of</strong> program rules.<br />
