COVER STORY

Study shows Dist. 365u math teachers excel By Laura Katauskas Bugle Staff @BugleNewspapers sweditor@buglenewspapers.com

Initial study results show Valley View School District math teachers are excelling in robust math skills compared to their counterparts across several states. According to Valley View, in 2014 it partnered with Michigan State University and the University of Virginia in a research study of new teachers, taking a look at their classroom instruction, analyzing instruction based on the Teaching in Robust Understanding (TRU) mathematics rubric. This rubric, designed by math experts, is meant to measure instructional practices that directly relate to improved math skills for students. An information report from the district shows that in all four areas measured on the TRU rubric, the average score of Valley View teachers increased significantly from the fall of 2015 to the spring of 2016, the only district to do so. A total 8 school districts with 82 teachers from MIchigan, Indiana and Ohio were involved in the study with 14 teachers from Valley View participating. In comparison, the report states that the other 82 teachers either scored the same or results were lower over the same time period. In the information report, John

MORE INFO In the information report, John Lane, study author and researcher, stated, “The teachers in Valley View experienced the most significant improvement in their TRU Math scores between the fall of 2015 and the spring of 2016 of any of the districts in the study.

Lane, study author and researcher, stated, “The teachers in Valley View experienced the most significant improvement in their TRU Math scores between the fall of 2015 and the spring of 2016 of any of the districts in the study. TRU MAth includes four dimensions: mathematic content; cognitive demand; student agency and authority; and formative assessment, and Valley View teachers improved steadily in each dimension over the school year.” The research study authors anticipate further conclusions based on the study in 2018 which will help Valley View connect the success to its curriculum. Valley View said it will continue to use the TRU rubric as a tool to professionally develop its educators and is currently working with the University of Illinois-Chicago (UIC) on complex math instruction in fourth grade classrooms.

Tax program to benefit Catholic schools New state tax credit scholarship program to beneﬁt Catholic schools By Laura Katauskas Bugle Staff @BugleNewspapers sweditor@buglenewspapers.com

As the basis for school funding was intensely debated this summer in the legislature, the fruits of its labor are beginning to show in favor for private schools. In August, the Illinois House and Senate passed a comprehensive education funding bill which was signed into law by the Governor. According to the Roman Catholic Diocese of Joliet, additional details now are beginning to unfold, including a new five-year program for Tax Credit Scholarships (TCS) for students in private schools. Scholarships can be awarded based on a family’s income level

in relation to the federal poverty level. For example, according to the Illinois Policy Institute, scholarships may be awarded to families whose income does not exceed 300 percent of the federal poverty level. For example, a family of four earning $73,800 or less would qualify. In Romeoville, St. Andrew the Apostle released information regarding the tax credit scholarship, encouraging students to check for eligibility. For students whose household income is less than 185 percent of the federal poverty level, the scholarship will be 100 percent of tuition and necessary fees; for students whose household income is between 185 percent and 250

percent, scholarships will average 75 percent of tuition and necessary fees; and for students whose household income is above 250 percent, scholarships will average 50 percent of tuition and necessary fees. According to the Diocese, the new scholarship program is funded by individual and corporate donors who will receive a tax break (75 percent of their donation) for their contribution to a scholarship granting organizations (SGO) such as the Diocese. These organizations will then use this money to grant scholarships to qualifying students. Individual donors can direct their donations to the school or subset of schools of their choice. Corporate donors cannot designate. The credit is non-refundable, but it can be carried forward for

five years. The State of Illinois has created a new way to fund scholarships for children who choose to attend Catholic schools through the “Invest in Kids Act.” The Empower Illinois Scholarship Granting Organization will be operational and is expected to have application information ready Dec. 15 and anticipates accepting applications Jan. 2, 2018. The Diocese reports that to qualify for a scholarship, a student’s family will have to give official documentation to the SGO of their ability to pay. Initially, students whose families earn 300 percent of the federal poverty level or less ($73,800 for a family of four) will qualify. Once a student receives a scholarship, his or her family can earn up to 400 percent of the federal

poverty level ($98,400 for a family of four). From January 1 to April 1, priority will be given to students from each of the following categories: Students who received a scholarship from an SGO during the previous school year; Students who are members of a household whose previous year’s total annual income does not exceed 185 percent of the federal poverty level ($45,510 for a family of four}; Students who reside within a focus district; and students who are siblings of students currently receiving a scholarship. After April 1, all other qualifying students will be able to receive scholarships. For more information, contact Carol Albreski, Principal, St. Andrew the Apostle at 815-886-5953 or visit www.weteachmore.org.

GUARD

HEAVY Raiders open the season with one of the best group of guards in the state of Illinois

BY MARK GREGORY Sports Editor @Hear_The_Beard mark@enterprisepublications.com

Last season, Bolingbrook made its second trip to the IHSA state finals, placing third for the second time in four years. Gone from last year’s team are Malik Binns and Voyager Media Player of the Nana Akenten, however, the cupboard is not empty for Rob Brost’s Raiders. Bolingbrook brings back a plethora of guards, led by senior Kaleb Thornton and juniors Tyler Cochran and Joseph Yesufu. The trio accounted for 43.5 percent of the Raiders’ scoring last season. “Everyone talks about those three, but you have to throw Demari Grant, Isaiah Clemons and Jordan Myrick as well,” Brost said. “Obviously Joseph, Tyler and Kaleb get all the publicity – and rightfully so – but the combination of all six of them

is really hard to deal with over a 32-minute time span. “It is a luxury that few coaches have and we are fortunate to have developed these guys. They are one of the top groups in the state and they have worked hard individually to get better.” With Akenten and Binns gone, Brost said the conversation of who will take over that scoring void. “Every team is different and I think it is more of a leadership thing rather than it is who is going to score the points,” Brost said. “We just talk about sharing the ball and playing the right way. We never talk about who is going to score what and who is going to do what on what night. We are 4-0 and have had four different leading scorers. Against Andrew, Kaleb led us with 20 points, but in the game before that he had single digits, but nine assists. We just take what the game gives us FILE PHOTO

Lewis falls in NCAA DII regional finals The No. 4 Lewis University women’s volleyball team ended its season Saturday (Dec. 2) with a 3-1 (22-25, 25-22, 25-21, 29-27) loss to Rockhurst in the NCAA Division II Midwest Regional championship game at Neil Carey Arena. After winning the first set, the Flyers dropped the next two. However, they appeared to battle back in the fourth set, taking a 19-12, which led to a Rockhurst timeout. The Hawks (31-7) went on a 12-3 run from there to take a 2422 lead. Lewis fought off five set points for Rockhurst until a kill ended the match. Aly Schneider (Granger, Ind./ Penn) tallied 14 kills and four block assists for the Flyers. Elizabeth Hyland (Plainfield, Ill./ Plainfield Central) added 12 kills, 17 digs and three block assists, while Maddie Seliga (St. Louis, Mo./Nerinx Hall) had nine kills and 11 digs.

A game earlier, Lewis beat Ferris State 3-2 (25-21, 23-25, 2225, 25-10, 15-10) Friday (Dec. 1) in a Midwest Regional semifinal match at Neil Carey Arena. It is the second straight year the Flyers (33-2) knocked Ferris State (24-8) out of the NCAA Tournament. The 33 wins are the most for the program since it went 51-11-2 in 1981. Maddie Seliga (St. Louis, Mo./ Nerinx Hall) came up big for Lewis down the stretch, scoring the final four points of the match after the Bulldogs tied the game at 11-11. “I don’t know if I can even remember that,” Seliga said of the final four kills. “I think (setter Abby) Becker was making good decisions. She did a really good

job of executing.” Aly Schneider (Granger, Ind./ Penn) paced the Flyers with 19 kills, two solo blocks and six block assists, while Seliga added 16 kills, 15 digs and six block assists. “It feels great,” Schneider said. “Our serve receive kind of broke down there but then we were able to pick it back up and the hitters were able to get kills.” Abby Becker (Menomonee Falls, Wis./Menomonee Falls) had 46 assists, Elizabeth Hyland (Plainfield, Ill./Plainfield Central) tallied 21 digs and Ronni Katarzynski (Winfield, Ill./West Chicago) had 18 digs. Seliga and Katarzynski had three aces each. Lewis hit .238 for the match (57-of-172), while Ferris State had a .157 (55-of-185) hitting percentage.

The win moves Lewis to 32-2 on the year, while Michigan Tech ends its season 20-11. The 32 wins are the most for Lewis since the 2009 season when it won 32 games. Abby Becker (Menomonee Falls, Wis./Menomonee Falls) helped four Flyers get double figures in kills as she dished out 43 assists. Aly Schneider (Granger, Ind./Penn) led the way with 15 kills, while Maddie Seliga (St. Louis, Mo./Nerinx Hall) and Bailey Sparkman (St. Charles, Mo./ Francis Howell) each had 13 kills and Elizabeth Hyland (Plainfield, Ill./Plainfield Central) added 11 kills.

Elmore, an Unmanned Aircraft Systems major, is a fouryear varsity golfer at Sacred Heart High School in Salina, Kansas, where he also plays quarterback for the football team and basketball. He has helped the golf team win three straight state championships and also was a member of the state champion basketball team last year. As a junior he had an average score of 73.8 per round with a low round of 67. “Cole is an excellent player from a strong high school program in Kansas and has competed on the national level for the past couple of years,” Steffey said. “I believe Cole will have an impact for us during his freshman year and has potential to be a top player in the conference.” Negri, who plans to major in Computer Science, has earned seven letters between baseball

He finished in third place at regionals as a junior. “Paul is a hard worker with ever-improving ball striking skills,” Steffey said. “He will compete hard from day one and be an asset to the team. “I’m confident he will take advantage of the opportunity to grow his game and I am excited to see where he takes it.” Pluth, a Business/Accounting major, is a four-year varsity golfer at Joliet Catholic Academy. He is a three-time All-Conference member and earned three regional medals. He finished in eighth place in state as a junior and 12th place as a senior in Class 2A. He was the Illinois Junior Golfers Association Player of the Year in 2017 and helped JCA finish 11th in the state in 2017. “Jake has been an outstanding area player for the past several years, including two strong finishes in the state 2A tournament, as well as a strong resume from play in the MAJGT tourna-

ments,” Steffey said. “I look for Jake to help us for the next four years.” Steinert, an Aviation Flight Management major, has competed on the varsity golf team his first three years of high school at Carrboro High School in North Carolina. He is a three-time All-Conference member and earned the team sportsmanship award twice. As a junior he was a team captain, was the conference MVP, won the individual conference title, earned the 2017 2A Central District Player of the Year award, finished in third place at regionals and advanced to the state meet. “Jacob has the potential to be an outstanding player with his tremendous length,” Steffey said. “Once he has shown the skill to manage that length around the course, he is capable of shooting really low numbers.” The Flyers will return to action March 11 at the Embry-Riddle Spring Invite in Prescott, Arizona.

“Having Joey helps us on the glass and he plays so hard,” Brost said. “The speed is a little bit of an adjustment from where he came from. He is a great kid and has really helped us out. This year’s team is coming together as we go here.” Like they did last season, the Raiders are concerned about the win and not about the stats, which a way that will lead to victories. “We are sharing the ball and doing things collectively that makes it hard if you are an oppo-

nent,” Brost said. The Raiders aren’t the only Valley View School District team to have a hot start, as Romeoville won the WJOL Thanksgiving Classic. The two Valley View teams meet up Dec. 13 in Romeoville. “They have a ton of talent and whenever you have a ton of talent, you have a chance to win a lot of games,” Brost said of the Spartans. “They are going to pose a challenge to us that we haven’t seen yet at this point in the season.”

In the coming week you are likely to be filled with warm feelings toward others. You may inadvertently step on some toes while seeking companionship. Heightened ambition could desensitize you to the word “no.”

GEMINI

M AY 2 2 T O J U N E 2 1

The Full Moon in your sign may make you more aware of relationship issues as this week unfolds. You may look on the dark side and be pessimistic when you should be sympathetic. Hold off on key decisions.

LEO

J U LY 2 3 T O A U G U S T 2 1

Today’s Full Moon may reveal how much you rely upon the opinions of others. As the week unfolds you may realize there is more to life than duty and ambition. Your focus may shift to creative activities or homegrown pleasures.

SEPTEMBER 24 TO OCTOBER 23

You may try to mix business and pleasure in the upcoming week, but in some cases it may be like mixing oil and water. You may have the impulse to bring new acquaintances into your home or into your confidence.

SAGITTARIUS

NOVEMBER 23 TO DECEMBER 22

During the first half of the week you might not succeed no matter how much you try. Later in the week focus on making your surroundings a place of peace and contentment. Invite trusted friends to visit.

AQUARIUS

JANUARY 21 TO FEBRUARY 19

You may sometimes feel lost in a forest without a breadcrumb trail. Remember that the scariest fairy tales have a happy ending. Maintain a positive attitude and problems will resolve themselves during the week ahead.

SUDOKU

Guard against financial losses. The Full Moon may light up areas where you are spending money on numerous unnecessary fees, but it will add up. As this week unfolds find way to insure your financial security.

CANCER

J U N E 2 2 T O J U LY 2 2

Tune your consciousness to the problems of the world. Solve environmental issues that are within reach; turn off a light or use a recycling bin. It may be difficult to attain your business goals in the early part of the week.

VIRGO

AUGUST 22 TO SEPTEMBER 23

Be proud of what you have, without coveting what others may have. New friendships and acquaintances could create some discomfort in the week ahead if you spend too much time comparing possessions.

SCORPIO

OCTOBER 24 TO NOVEMBER 22

This may be a great week to meet new friends or develop contacts who broaden your knowledge. You may feel compelled to pinch your pennies in the first half of the week when you should avoid making new investments.

CAPRICORN

DECEMBER 23 TO JANUARY 20

Steer a straight course no matter how tempting it is to take a detour. You maybe irked by companions who change their minds about business decisions at an awkward moment. Avoid arguments in the week ahead.

PISCES

FEBRUARY 20 TO MARCH 20

Open the windows and let in fresh air and sunshine. Avoid dark, gloomy places and people during the week to come. You may be challenged to deal with those who encourage you to dip into savings or change your investments.

BY TRAVIS LOTT of the County Journal No exploration of the 200 years of Illinois history would be complete without a look at what preceded those two centuries. While Illinois became a state in 1818, its story began nearly 150 years before that, in 1673, when Louis Joliet and Jacques Marquette explored the Mississippi River in search of a route to the Pacific Ocean. When the two explorers’ travels led them near hostile Spanish territories, they turned back and traveled along the Illinois River, finding safety among the Kaskaskia Indian tribe. Marquette founded the Mission of the Immaculate Conception, but left the mission in the

(Below) When George Rogers Clark’s expedition of American troops arrived in Kaskaskia to liberate the town from the British, residents rang this bell, now known as the Liberty Bell of the West. Source: Courtesy of Randolph County, randolphco.org. hands of Father Pierre-Gabriel Marest due to Marquette’s poor health. The mission had to be moved several times due to conflicts between the Kaskaskia, Illini Confederation and the Iroquois. Eventually, the mission planted roots at the confluence of the Mississippi River and the Michigamea River, which is now known as the Kaskaskia River. The village of Kaskaskia was established in 1703, and was mainly inhabited by French traders and their wives. The village’s fertile ground in the American Bottoms, along with its positioning at the confluence of two rivers, led it to be a hub of agriculture and trading. It also became a focal point for warring British and French during the French and Indian War. In 1756, fearing attack, the townspeople built Fort Kaskaskia on a hill overlooking the town. The fort was then destroyed by the townspeople who feared it would fall into British control after the French lost the war. Those who did not want to live under the impending British rule moved to St. Louis or Ste. Genevieve, Missouri. The town fell to the British and was kept under control of the crown until July 4, 1778, when George Rogers Clark led an expedition of American troops into the village to liberate it. After a two-month

journey over 1,000 miles, Clark and his 175 men arrived in Kaskaskia to take the area. Many of the British had been withdrawn from the area, and Clark captured the settlement without a shot being fired. With Clark in town, residents rang the Liberty Bell of the West, which got its name that day. The bell was originally given to the Catholic Church of the Illinois Country by King Louis XV of France. The bell was cast in France in 1741, making it 11 years older than the Liberty Bell that sits in Philadelphia. An inscription on the side of the bell reads “Pour Leglise des Illinois par les Soins du Roi D’outre,” which translates to “for the Church of the Illinois, by gift of the King across the water.” One side of the bell is ornamented with the royal lilies of France. The other side bears a cross and pedestal, with the top and arms of the cross terminating in grouped fleur de lis. Taking Kaskaskia was the first step in Clark’s plan to capture the western headquarters of the British at Detroit. The bell is now a tourist attraction, much like the Immaculate Conception Church that sits next door.

COLUMN >> DAVE SAYS

Budgeting for holiday cash happiness DEAR DAVE, My wife and I are trying to improve our finances by living on a budget and following your plan. We’re in the middle of Baby Step 2, so we’re working to pay off everything but our house using the debt snowball. We only bring home about $40,000 a year combined right now, so how should we handle Christmas budgeting in the middle of working our debt snowball? SCOT DEAR SCOT, Working to get out of debt can cause stress within a relationship. That stress is sometimes magnified if you’re serious about getting out of debt during the holidays. I’m glad you two are on the same page where your finances are concerned. The fact that you’re committed to becoming debt-free as a couple will go a long way toward ensuring a merrier Christmas.

Just sit down together, have a look at your budget, and ask what she thinks is a reasonable amount to spend on gifts and things while you’re trying to get out of debt. If you think her suggestion is a manageable figure, just give her a hug, tell her you agree, and move on. If you’ve been trying to get out of debt for a while, you might even propose using last year’s Christmas budget. The important thing is to make sure you listen to each other, and approach this together. On the off chance one of you wants to spend what the other considers to be too much, talk about how and why you arrived at that figure. Then, using your budget as a guide, gently and lovingly talk things out. Honestly, I don’t think you’re going have problems if you’ve already been working together to get your finances in order. And remember, you don’t have to spend
