Coping with test stress BY STARRLA CRAY
A test about tests
Associate Editor
Do you remember taking tests in school? For some students, standardized assessments are viewed as an interesting challenge, but for others, they cause anxiety and stress. The amount that students are tested increased in the early 2000s, with the federal No Child Left Behind law. According to a January 2015 PBS article, states are required to measure students’ abilities in reading and math in grades three through eight, as well as in 10th and 11th grade. Schools that don’t show improvement year-to-year can face consequences. Some districts choose to give more tests than others. “We don’t do a whole lot of testing here in Delano,” commented Delano High School Principal Steve Heil. “In the elementary, we do a little more with reading fluency and reading understanding, because it’s been shown that if kids aren’t reading at grade-level by third grade, they’ll continue to struggle and be behind.”
Testing to prepare for college
In their junior year, the majority of Minnesota students take the ACT, which is used for college entrance and scholarships. In the past, students chose whether or not to take the test, have paid for this test themselves, and took it on a Saturday. Last school year, however, the state picked up the cost, and required all schools to give the test during the school day. “This year, school districts have to offer it, and they’ll be reimbursed,” Heil said. The Minnesota Department of Education (MDE) will “reimburse districts for the price per test only for the ACT on a first-come, first-served basis until all available funds are dispersed.” “It’s still a requirement that it’s offered to [students] free of charge,” Heil said. “No one knows what the legislature will do next year.” The Minnesota Department of Education no longer administers preparatory ACT assessments (Explore and Plan, now called ACT Aspire) for grades eight through 10. “I wish we still had those, because it provides a lot of great information.” Heil said. “To me, it was a really good tool for families to use. It asks questions about what students’ interests are, and it helps point direction to their strengths.”

Q1: What is the average ACT score in Minnesota? A1: The average composite score in 2014 was 22.9. (A perfect score is 36.) Q2: Minnesota Comprehensive Assessments (MCAs) cover which subjects? A2: Grades 3-8 and 10 are tested in reading; grades 3-8 and 11 are tested in math; and grades 5, 8, and 10 are tested in science. Q3: What are four tips from the Minnesota Department of Education to help students feel less stressed for tests? A3: The MDE recommends students get a good night’s sleep the night before, eat breakfast in the morning, develop an ongoing love of reading, math, and learning in general, set up a regular study area, and get into good study habits by allocating time each day for homework.
At the Aug. 24 Howard Lake-Waverly-Winsted School Board meeting, Board Member Charles Bush commented that his grandson comes home from school with a migraine on test days. “Why do we want to keep making their lives miserable and stressful?” he asked. Board Member Michelle Heuer said the answer might not be to take away tests, but to teach kids to cope with the stress that’s involved and prepare them for future careers. “I’ve been at my job for 25 years, and I’m tested every day, just in a different way,” she said. According to a March 2015 St. Cloud Times article, critics of standardized tests are concerned that the tests force schools to place too much focus on certain areas, while other subjects are being ignored. There is also concern that the tests aren’t an accurate way to measure student knowledge. Families can choose to opt out of the Minnesota State Comprehensive (MCA) assessment, but in 2014, less than 1 percent of students did so.
Scoring stress
In addition to the concern about too much testing, some parents worry that their child may not score well on tests. “I tell parents that every child develops at a different rate,” Heil said. “There are a lot of different pathways, and a lot of different types of schools.” Although scoring well on the ACT helps students become eligible for college scholarships, attending a four-year college isn’t the only way Is it too much? to achieve success. Although assessments can provide useful in“The job market is really changing,” Heil formation, some families worry that their chil- said. “Many people work their way up through dren are being tested too much. companies.” Participants competed for prizes in the HulaHoop contest during the Loretto Fun Fest in 2014. The event will take place Saturday, Sept. 12 this year, with plenty of free activities for kids. Events will include a climbing wall, bounce house, face painting, a kiddie train, a K-9 demonstration, and more.
to remind their children that studying up on proper contact lens care can prevent serious eye infections. Many children and teenagers start wearing contact lenses in junior high or high school. However, young people are notoriously poor at caring for their contact lenses, creating a potential gateway for serious eye infections that can cause impaired vision or even blindness. The Minnesota Academy of Ophthalmology (MAO) offers tips for teens and their parents on how to properly care for contact lenses. Four contact lens tips every parent should share with their teens: • New quarter, new case. Replacing your contact lens case every three months will help keep germs at bay. To make it easy to remember, swap out your case at the beginning of each quarter. A study from the journal Ophthalmology showed that waiting to replace lens cases after six months increases the risk of eye infection by nearly 5.5 times. • Just say no to H20.

clean enough to drink or bathe in, but it’s still home to the parasite Acanthamoeba, which can cause severe eye infections resulting in vision loss. For the same reasons, do not use water to rinse or soak contact lenses or cases. • You snooze, you lose. Never sleep in your contact lenses. The same ophthalmology study also found that even occasionally sleeping in contact lenses increases the risk of moderate to severe eye infection by 6.5 times. Unfortunately, a recent poll of nearly 100,000 people by BuzzFeed found that about 70 percent of respondents occasionally or regularly sleep in their contact lenses. • It’s too late if you wait. Symptoms of eye infections include redness, pain, and light sensitivity, and eyes should be examined by an ophthalmologist immediately. Waiting to get examined or treated could lead to vision loss.

HLWW fall clay target shooting begins Sept 14 GABE LICHT DHJ Editor
More than 8,000 Minnesotan students participated on clay target teams in the spring, making it the activity with the second highest participation, behind football. More than 10,000 students are anticipated to participate in the sport in the spring of 2016, but, in the meantime, students will be able to take part in the sport in the fall season. After beginning clay target shooting in the 2015 spring season, Howard Lake-WaverlyWinsted will participate in the fall season. “Because of the interest in it, they wanted to shoot the fall league, which is basically an abridged version,” coach Gary Schmidt said.
Background
For HLWW, clay target shooting began with 21 students – 17 males and four females. The spring season is nine weeks long, plus state tournament competition. HLWW was grouped in a
conference with nine other similarly sized teams with comparable averages and finished fifth out of 10 teams after a nine-week season. “For the first time out, that was a pretty good showing,” Schmidt said. HLWW traveled to Alexandria in June for the state clay target high school qualification. The team was shooting against schools of all sizes with relatively the same handicaps, season shooting averages, and number of students. “We ended up taking 14th out of about 76 teams that shot that day,” Schmidt said. With the top 10 teams making the cut for state participation, HLWW’s season was over.
How it works
Clay target teams have the option to use 20-gauge or 12gauge shotguns, with HLWW opting for the latter. “I have everyone use a 12gauge, because it makes it easier ordering ammo and making
sure someone shooting a 20gauge doesn’t grab a 12-gauge shell,” Schmidt said. “It can be semi-automatic, pump, overunder: It doesn’t matter as long as it’s not fully automatic.” With their firearm of choice, students take aim at a total of 50 targets. “They shoot from five different positions, with five shots at each position,” Schmidt said. “They do that twice a night.” Three students on the HLWW team shot 25 straight targets without a miss during the spring season, and the team average was about 15 out of 25 targets. The team doesn’t travel to other schools, rather shooting each Tuesday night at the Waverly Gun Club. Coaches keep track of their students’ scores and submit them to the Minnesota State High School League. “Every week, we get our standings in the division and the conference,” Schmidt said. “We didn’t shoot with many teams that were local. It was all based on how many kids we

New guide helps parents teach teenagers safe driving habits
The Safe Roads Alliance, Cenex, and West Bend Mutual Insurance have partnered with the Minnesota Department of Public Safety (DPS) to produce a new guide that provides parents and guardians with a simple, easy-to-follow plan designed to help teens to get the experience they need to be safe, smart drivers. “Drivers between 16 and 19 years old are more than twice as likely to be involved in a crash as drivers in other age groups,” explained Donna Berger, director of the DPS Office of Traffic Safety. “Parents play a critical role in their children’s education. This guide encourages parents to expose teenagers to a variety of enhanced, supervised driving experiences that will help them become knowledgeable and safe drivers.” The Parent’s Supervised Driving Guide is filled with information and lessons on driving basics, parental pointers, and licensing qualifications that are helpful to parents of new drivers. The guide is supplemented by the Safe Roads Alliance RoadReady mobile app, which can track the required supervised driving time of 50 hours, including 15 hours of night driving. The free guide is available at driver licensing offices around the state. The RoadReady mobile app is available at the Apple Store. The enhanced Graduated Driver Licensing law took effect earlier this year in Minnesota. It increases the minimum number of hours teens must practice driving before licensure, and requires a supervised driving log. It also requires all driver education pro-

The greatest crash risk occurs during the first months of teens driving independently. (In 2013, driver inexperience contributed to 12.9 percent of single-vehicle crashes involving drivers ages 16 through 19, compared to just 4.1 percent of drivers ages 20 through 23.)

grams to offer parent awareness classes, which provide information on teen driving risks, laws, and the important role parents play in influencing teen safe driving behaviors. West Bend President and CEO Kevin Steiner stated, “The skills outlined in this guide are meant to help teens learn to be better drivers. It is one of the many ways West Bend works to help Minnesota families.” The guide focuses on the role of the parent in the teen driver education process, and encourages parents and teens to drive together in a variety of weather conditions and unfamiliar settings, city and heavy traffic routes, and various times of day. According to a Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia study, Driving Through the Eyes of Teens, teen drivers whose parents are highly involved in the teen driver education process were half as likely to get in a car crash, 71 percent less likely to drive intoxicated, 30 percent less likely to use a cell phone while driving, and twice as likely to wear seatbelts. As part of its commitment to safety education, CHS Inc. – and its Cenex® brand – also helped fund The Parent’s Supervised Driving Guide through sponsorship. “Getting a driver’s license is an exciting moment in a teen’s life, but it demands a new level of responsibility. Practice and preparation are key components to new driver success,” explained Akhtar Hussain, CHS refined fuels marketing manager. “Research tells us the single most important thing parents can do to help their teens stay safe on the road is to allow as much supervised practice behind the wheel as possible. Driving with a parent builds a new driver’s confidence, and we hope this new resource will help parents and teens make the most of this time together.”
Minnesota teen driver facts
Traffic crashes are the second-leading killer of Minnesota teens. (In 2013, 33 teens ages 13 through 19 were killed in traffic crashes.) Teen drivers are over-represented in crashes, due to factors like inexperience, distractions, speeding, and taking risks. (In 2013, driver inattention/distraction was the leading contributing factor of crashes involving teen drivers, at 20.5 percent.)
