KASSON-MANTORVILLE SCHOOL DISTRICT 204 BOARD MINUTES School Board Chair Kent Harfmann called the School Board Work Session to order at 7:07 p.m. in the District Board Room 110. Board members Jill Minette-Stacey, Kent Harfmann, Brandon Madery, Candy Ellingworth, Missy Swarts, and Rob Hamlin were present as well as Superintendent Mark D. Matuska and Curriculum Instruction & Assessment Director Kelly Braun. Board member Ryan Thomas was absent. Brandon Madery made a motion, seconded by Missy Swarts to approve the agenda. Motion passed unanimously. Candy Ellingworth made a motion, seconded by Rob Hamlin to approve the consent agenda, which included January 7, 2013, special organizational school board meeting minutes. Motion passed unanimously. K-M’s Vision, Mission, and Goals were reviewed. Background on the initial development of the current Vision, Mission, and Goals was provided for new board member understanding. The new members were given an opportunity to give feedback and suggestions for changes to the Vision, Mission, and Goals. Much thought was put in to the original development by gathering the “bests” from other surrounding school districts’ visions, making adjustments to prepare students of today with technological advancements and less focus on college attendance, and heavier emphasis on the growth of all students, not just proficiency of all students. Research was conducted that showed students involved in activities achieve a higher GPA. Character-building activities with fidelity are occurring. Kelly Braun presented the individual sites’ goals, which are based on and formed to reflect collected student data. Kelly also described PLC’s, which are Professional Learning Communities that change the teacher’s focus from teaching to learning. Focusing on how students learn produces more proficient students that achieve at a higher rate. Currently, there are several different ideas being implemented in PLC’s. Kelly will provide a view of the connection between classroom teachers and the School Board on a goal-setting continuum from the Board to the district to the individual sites to teachers, and then to students. A PLC presentation has been included on the Regular School Board meeting agenda for Monday, January 28, 2013. Part of PLCs is discussing how students learn best and where technology can assist with learning, which supports K-M’s Vision, Mission, and Goals. PLCs allow for teachers to share any and all strategies in order to set goals on their own to improve student scores, rather than past practice of delegation by Administration. This gives teachers ownership on how to improve instruction in their classrooms. In order to better fully encompass the mission for Kasson-Mantorville School District, a fifth statement was added: Provide a safe and welcoming environment. The Board agreed safety is vital to students in the school as well as residents within and entering the community. The board also agreed this statement aids in the marketing of K-M’s success, which the Board strives to accomplish with the Vision, Mission, and Goals document. This change will be presented for approval at the January 28, 2013, regular school board meeting. There was discussion on how to measure, evaluate, and continue achieving goals, and training next year in the November, December, or January timeframe on Smart Goals will be considered. The next Regular Board Meeting is January 28, 2013 at 7:00 p.m. in the Community Ed Building. MSBA Negotiations Seminar is February 8, 2013, at 8:15 a.m. at Rochester International Event Center. Kent Harfmann called for a motion to adjourn the meeting at 8:06 p.m. Jill Minette-Stacey made a motion, seconded by Rob Hamlin to adjourn the meeting. Motion passed unanimously. Respectfully submitted, Jill Minette-Stacey, Clerk Kasson-Mantorville Schools District 204

The Choral Directors in all seven districts have proposed that ZED celebrate our 25th Choral Festival next October by commissioning a composer to write a piece for our students to perform together.

A motion to approve funds for this project is on the agenda. Students at ZED South Campus and six students from the ALC have been working on a project to create their own comic books.

Small town survival begins at home by Vicky Heitman: Prairie Meadows Senior Living When Kasson residents were involved in public meetings to obtain input about building a senior living project in Kasson they had a cohesive simple idea...folks who spend their entire lives working, nurturing families and creating friendships should not have to leave Kasson simply because they may need extra help as they age. The idea of keeping families and friends together resonated during those meetings and the project quickly gained steam and less than one year later, the doors of Prairie Meadows Senior Living were open. Six years later Prairie Meadows Senior Living remains over 90% full. Among our residents, we can count local farmers, teachers, business people and homemakers. There also are those who come from a distance away to be closer to family and are welcomed at Prairie Meadows and by the community. The folks who built Kasson over the years remain a vital and active part of the local community. A large portion of the rents paid stay in the community. These dollars pay the salaries of a sizable local work force of nursing, dietary, housekeeping, administrative and maintenance staff. Salaries in turn are spent on groceries, gas, mortgages and local services. The business cycle and the Kasson community continues to grow and prosper. Thank you Kasson, we are glad to be part of your success story.
Prairie Meadows Senior Living residents dine in the spacious eating area where they have an excellent view of Veterans Memorial Park.
