Efforts To Restore Possible First Home In Trenton Is Rotary Program

Phyllis Jackson pre sented the program at the Thursday, October 6, meet ing of the Trenton Rotary Club, held in the BTC Bank community room.

Michael Ormsby presided at the meeting and was the sergeant at arms, Joe Mac Donald gave the prayer and Megan Taul was the pro

gram chairman.

Ms. Jackson talked about efforts to restore a structure believed to be the first home built in Trenton.

The project involves prop erty owned by Sarah and the late Tom Brown, which the couple purchased in the 1950s and is located next to the family home. The

Browns had always been told that the structure cov ered a cabin, but had never really pursued efforts to substantiate those claims.

Ms. Jackson said the two original abstracts from the first purchase of the land are currently being re searched by a local abstract company to confirm the

building date of the cabin. The structure was to be a part of the historical preser vation district proposed in the city of Trenton, but was then turned down by the city council.

Ms. Jackson then con tacted state officials, who worked with her to begin trying to save the cabin,

which was discovered when a group of Amish were hired to remove the outside structure that was around the cabin. Much of the original cabin was found in place, including ceiling joists that contained writings. Among the writ ings are a date that says either 1836 or 1856 as well

as names of individuals. Ms. Jackson said that both may give more detail into the exact date the cabin was built. Those writings

She is now working with the State Preservation Society to get the building weatherized, with work to shore up the structure scheduled to begin next week. The metal structure is to be built around the cabin to protect it from the weather. Ms. Jackson said a lot of interest has been shown in the project, re sulting in the filing of cor poration papers and starting the process of be coming a 501(c)(3) nonprofit so that donations can be collected to help pay for the costs of the preserva tion work.

A board will need to be formed and Ms. Jackson is

asking persons interested in the project to contact her about becoming a board member. There is a Face book page where persons can follow the progress of the restoration project, “Tom and Sarah Joe Brown Historical Cabin, Trenton, MO.”

During the business meeting, club-related Mis souri Day activities were announced, including put ting up flags at 5:30 am on Friday, Oct. 14 and taking them down at 3 pm on Sun day, Oct. 16 (meet at the Citizens Bank parking lot for both).

The district had $2000 of money left from the original $10,000 grant that was awarded last year for the Grow Your Own Teachers Program.

Inter views will be scheduled from November 28 to De cember 9 and the program recipients will be notified with award letters mailed prior to December 16.

The district is looking for a way to be able to fund the Grow Your Own Teacher Program without using district funds or grants. Dr. Watkins be lieves the program is bene ficial in helping the district to grow and maintain teachers.

Dr. Watkins reported that the November 1 Pro fessional Development Day has additional training added for Seizure/Epilepsy that is required by law. Superintendent Daniel Gott gave a report on Summer School. Summer School had 212 students enrolled with the maximum hours of 168. The average daily attendance was 91 percent this year which was

up from 70 percent last year, however he noted last year’s summer school was shut down early due to quarantines.

Summer School Satis faction surveys were com pleted by staff and parents.

Of the nineteen staff members who completed the survey, 89 percent agreed that it was a positive experience and they would do it again.

Ninety-one parents completed the survey and 98 percent agreed that they would recommend the pro gram to other parents.

Mr. Gott made a rec ommendation that the board consider making the $110 per day for substitute pay an official pay. The board had agreed in Feb ruary to set it at that amount for the remainder of the school year.

The board agreed to make the following official pay for substitute teachers in the Trenton R-9 School District. Days 1-11$110/day; Days 12-25$112/day and Day 26-bey ond- $205/day.

Extension Notes

by Jessica Trussell, University of Missouri Extension Field Specialist in Human Development in Livingston County

Communication, or the act of transmitting and re ceiving information, is a vital component of all inter actions between family members. Communication is an important part of a satisfying parent-child rela tionship, and for working parents with children living in the home communica tion is a very important part of daily life. To achieve un derstanding in communica tion a person must listen, decode the message, and give feedback to ensure that the receiver under stood the message in the same context in which it was sent. Communication is a vital part of our lives. Communication includes speaking, writing, reading, listening comprehending and evaluating. It also can be verbal AND non- verbal. So however we define it, positive communication strengthens family relation ships.

Research suggests that the best parent-child rela tionships are characterized by a lot of positive com munication and interaction.

In such relationships, com munication happens on a regular basis, not just when there is a conflict. Re searchers believe that when adults and children stay in touch through inten tion and conversation chil dren may be less likely to act out or behave in ways that cause conflict or re quire discipline. Under standing how children of different ages communi cate and what they like to talk about helps parents have rewarding inter actions with them and re late appropriately given the age and interest of the child.

Adults who take time to really listen and learn about each other can discover ways to more effectively communicate. Communi cating regularly with other adults in our lives can con tribute to satisfying rela tionships. Just as regular communication with our children creates a satis fying parent-child relation ship.

Here’s an idea that you can do this week, or over the course of the next month, to strengthen your family’s communication. Choose a good time for a discussion: at the dinner table, in the car, in the evening while relaxing.

safety plans, rubber gloves, band-aids, two bottles of water, crackers and a flash light. The bags will be hung at the door of each classroom. The sling bags were donated by CMF In surance and materials by Bright Futures who will also pack the bags.

Each classroom with an outside window will have a classroom number placed on the window to help emergency personnel with locating rooms. The sec ondary locks have been completed by Grand River Technical School and will be installed soon.

The earthquake drill has been scheduled on October 20 with Rissler’s taking place on October 19 due to scheduled school trips.

The board adjourned to a closed session with the following announcements made.

Resignations were ac cepted from Betty Schultzfood service cook effective October 28 and Ashley Wilson- paraprofessional effective September 30.

The board voted to hire the following personnel: Emily Owen-Varsity Bas ketball Cheer Coach at THS; Rylee Berti-Title 1 Paraprofessional at Rissler and Ginger Murphy and Karri Barnes as full-time food service cooks.

Eliminate distractions and allow enough time for ev eryone to talk and share their ideas and opinions.

Develop the conver sation based on the an swers to these discussion starters:

• My biggest goof re cently was....

• One really good thing that happened to me was...

• One thing I do well is...

• If I were the parent in this family..

• Our family is really good at...

• If I could have my fa vorite meal it would be...

• One thing I like about each person in my family is...

Make sure to value each persons comments and take some time to really strengthen your family. Perhaps the most impor tant communication skill is listening. Listening to chil dren is as important as talking with them. When you open yourself up to what your children have to say, you will get to know them better and deepen your relationship with them. Boost your children’s selfconfidence by showing them you value what they have to say.

Strong families don’t just happen. It takes special ef fort. All types of families can grow stronger by talk ing together. Share your feelings, thoughts, dreams, and fears with each other.

If you desire further in formation on this or any other topic, contact your local University of Missouri Extension Center. Univer sity of Missouri Extension programs are open to all. Thank you for your time.

PUBLIC NOTICE

The Reauthorization of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) in December of 2004 incorporated several changes in regard to local district responsibilities/requirements for the provision of services to parentally-placed private school children with disabilities.

• The term “parentally-placed private school student” refers to children placed by their parents in private, parochial or other religiously-affiliated schools or home schools.

Due to these changes in IDEA the Trenton R-IX School District will offer information to all officials of private schools and parents of parentally-placed private school children, including some home schooled children, within the Trenton R-IX School District. If you would like information regarding the IDEA changes, please contact Tara Hoffman, Director of Special Services for the Trenton R-IX District, at 660-359-2003.

If interested in information, Tara Hoffman, Trenton R-IX Director of Special Services, will explain how, where and by whom special education and related services can be provided for students with disabilities who are privately placed in non-public school settings within the Trenton R-IX School District.

PUBLIC NOTICE

All responsible public agencies are required to locate, evaluate, and identify children with disabilities who are under the jurisdiction of the agency, regardless of the severity of the disability, including children attending private schools, children who live outside the district but are attending a private school within the district, highly mobile children, such as migrant and homeless children, children who are wards of the state, and children who are suspected of having a disability and in need of special education even though they are advancing from grade to grade.

The Trenton R-IX School District assures that it will provide a free, appropriate public education (FAPE) to all eligible children with disabilities between the ages of 3 and 21 under its jurisdiction. Disabilities include autism, deaf/blindness, emotional disorders, hearing impairment and deafness, intellectual disability, multiple disabilities, orthopedic impairment, other health impairments, specific learning disabilities, speech or language impairment, traumatic brain injury, visual impairment/blindness and young child with a developmental delay.

The Trenton R-IX School District assures that it will provide information and referral services necessary to assist the State in the implementation of early intervention services for infants and toddlers eligible for the Missouri First Steps program.

The Trenton R-IX School District assures that personally identifiable information collected, used, or maintained by the agency for the purposes of identification, evaluation, placement or provision of FAPE of children with disabilities may be inspected and/or reviewed by their parents/guardians. Parents/guardians may request amendment to the educational record if the parent/guardian believes the record is inaccurate, misleading, or violates the privacy or other rights of their child. Parents have the right to file complaints with the U.S. Department of Education or the Missouri Department of Elementary and Secondary Education concerning alleged failures by the district to meet the requirements of the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA).

The Trenton R-IX School District has developed a Local Compliance Plan for the implementation of State Regulations for the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA). This plan contains the agency’s policies and procedures regarding storage, disclosure to third parties, retention and destruction of personally identifiable information and the agency’s assurances that services are provided in compliance with the General Education Provision Act (GEPA). This plan may be reviewed at S.M. Rissler Elementary School during school hours. This notice will be provided in native languages as appropriate.

Graphics King

By Kristi Harris R-T Correspondent

Established in 2000, Graphics King is a local small business that provides quality graphic design and printing services at a reasonable cost to area businesses and in dividuals. Graphics King offers graphic design, logos, signs, banners, decals, win dow perf, race car wraps, golf cart wraps, custom printed cups, header cards for cus tom packaging, interior wall graphics, cus tom printed flags, custom canopies, and many other solutions for branding with no job too big or too small. They can essen tially do anything in terms of branding. Tyler Willey, the Owner, said, “We love working with all the other local small busi nesses and seeing the impact our products bring to the community in terms of making the town nicer and more professional, and the pride that comes along with seeing ev eryone comment on your work.”

Over the past two years, Graphics King has grown exponentially. Tyler said, “We haven’t changed tremendously in just two years since opening. However, we have been fortunate enough to get involved in more events, meet more local business owners, and expand our network to, hope fully, educate people on our offerings more.” Every year, Graphics King donates to kids’ activities like Green Hills Recre ational Association (GHRA) and is ac tively involved in sponsoring North Central Missouri College athletics and the Mid-America Music Festival. Tyler said, “We really want to get more people from outside our area talking about Trenton.”

Recently, Graphics King provided all the signage for the Mid-America Music Festival held in Trenton. They also created the new Welcome to Trenton banners on the light poles down Main Street. Tyler said, “They were both huge projects out of our comfort zone, and we were able to pull them off and got a lot of compliments.”

In the future, Graphics King will branch

out into embroidery as it has been highly requested. With embroidery, Graphics King would be able to produce branded shirts, hats, jackets, bags, etc. They also see themselves adding employees to further their reach. Graphics King would also like to work with more local busi nesses and be involved in more com munity activities.

Tyler said, “We want to thank everyone for their support, especially all our cus tomers, the Trenton Chamber, Main Street Trenton, NCMC, Lions Club, and GHRA. These organizations really put a lot of trust in us and helped bring our commercial side to light for others around the area to see what we can do. Our business is nothing without the customers putting trust in our work, and it speaks for itself. We have sev eral repeat customers and look forward to the client list growing. We would really appreciate anyone who has any questions to give us a call or a message as we would love to help you any way we can.”

My suggestion when filing into C.F. Russell stadium; Buckle Up.

Coach Hixson has managed his squad well this season. Several times I suspect he called off the “dogs”.

Jamey Honeycutt Owner/Publisher

I may not be as talented as Judy Self at picking games (even though I won this week) but I can see trends.

Even before the teams snapped the ball the first week, many thought it would come down to Gallatin vs Trenton to see who will be unbeaten rolling into districts.

Your Bulldogs have been very consistent with defense and offense has been consistantly strong, although some nights it is rolling a little better than others.

Sure, I would like to see running clock in the second half but I’ll take the victory any way I can get it.

On paper the teams are

Putnam managed 20 points against both defenses. Trenton was able to score a few more points on them but in the end the games were similar.

Trenton’s defense has only allowed 47 points through seven games and Gallatin has allowed 72 points in the same span. Trenton averages 6.7 points allowed where Gallatin is giving up just over 10 points.

Gallatin owns the slight advantage on offensive performance.

So far they have scored 294 points in their games and Trenton has posted 227. That is just over 32 points for the home team while Trenton is scoring 32.5 points.

Full disclosure, I have not watched any Gallatin

He seems to have them focused on the opponent in front of them but I believe many had this game circled on the calendar since the schedules were released.

Lately this meeting has been a lopsided affair with Gallatin holding the advantage. The Bulldog Challenge Trophy has called Gallatin home since it’s inception.

This year could see that change but if it is going to happen, the local Dogs need to bring their A game.

I will be there and you need to be as well.

A victory Friday night will bode well for our run into district playoffs.

I said at the beginning that I know a thing or two about trends and here is my big prediction for the game.

Bulldogs win.

I will see myself out...
