Dr. Darryl Hogue, superintendent of River Bend CUSD #2, has been named a 2020 Superintendent of Distinction by his colleagues in the Northwest Region of the Illinois Association of School Administrators (IASA).

Hogue was honored at a virtual ceremony on October 8. IASA originally planned to recognize 21 Superintendents of Distinction at a luncheon in Springfield in May, but the event was postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

“It is an honor to be recognized by my fellow superintendents in the region because much of our work in northwest Illinois is a regional approach to sharing resources and problem solving,” said Hogue, who has been an educator for 25 years and has served as superintendent in River Bend for seven years. “I believe we can do so much more for our communities if we approach education initiatives regionally.”

Those nominating Hogue noted a number of successes during his tenure including: • Worked with area school district and employers to become a 60 by 25 Leadership Community (MORE- Making Opportunities Real for Everyone) in which the district works to connect students to opportunities throughout northwest Illinois.

Darryl Hogue, Superintendent of River Bend schools • Implemented competency educational strategies in the spring and fall of 2019.

• Expanded dual credit and found community resources to offset the cost of dual credit.

• Oversaw renovations to Fulton Elementary School, River Bend Middle School and Fulton High School that provided new learning opportunities to students and enhanced safety.

• Collaborated with employers in the Fulton and Clinton, Iowa regions to form the River Bend Workforce Collaborative, which seeks to determine how Fulton High School can better impact the community and our local employers.

“Each Superintendent of Distinction was nominated by peers in their regions based on their commitment, dedication and leadership,” said IASA Executive Director Dr. Brent Clark. “These extraordinary individuals truly provide exceptional leadership that elevates the success of students in their districts and are difference makers in their communities.”

The virtual ceremony was again sponsored by Horace Mann, one of the nation’s largest insurers focusing on the needs of educators.

“We are proud to recognize these Superintendents of Distinction who are creative, dedicated, inspiring, and consistently create strong learning environments in their districts,” said Marita Zuraitis, Horace Mann President and Chief Executive Officer.

When I am not in sports or school, I like to spend time with my friends and family and relax.

What have you learned from this pandemic?

B.L.I.N.D. has meant a lot to me from freshman year to now. I have been able to meet new friends, as well as help others to do the same. I love how close everyone is and it makes me feel very secure having so many people to support each other.

ATTENTION VOTERS

Morrison Community Hospital District referendum As you prepare to vote in the general election on Nov. 3, please note that on the ballot, Morrison Community Hospital District is presenting a referendum asking whether or not the District shall have the authority to lease office space and common areas outside of District boundaries.

Due to the addition of specialists to our physician practice group, a remote location is needed for initial

and follow up appointments. Please know that all surgical services will be performed at the hospital which brings patients and families to the community. The passage of this resolution simply allows the hospital to share leased office space for the convenience of our patients and their providers by reducing travel time and exposure.

The remote office location one

day a week allows our specialists to expand Morrison Community Hospital services outside of the district at a minimal cost. The value in return is not only beneficial to the hospital but also the local community as the patients and/or family members utilize other Morrison services.

Expanding healthcare services to our community and patients has

been a priority for our administration and board of directors for the past several years. We want to assure our District residents that this referendum will not result in an increase to your property taxes.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me, Pam Pfister, CEO, at 815-772-5530. We value your support and look forward to enhancing our patient services.

PORT BYRON BOARD

Utility extension study approved in Port Byron

BY SARAH FORD For Shaw Media The Port Byron board approved spending $12,500 for an engineering study for utilities extensions, but it took the tie-breaking vote of the mayor to push it through.

At their meeting on Oct. 5, Mayor Bruce Peterson, as well as eight residents who live on N. Shore Dr. and N. River Rd., made their case for the project. Peterson recapped the timeline and previous work done to bring the water and sewer line extension to the north end of the village, noting that $3 million dollars has already been spent on extensions, with only seven households out of 48 connecting.

At issue is whether the village could extend the services, with an estimated cost of $4 million dollars, so that the homeowners will be EPA compliant with their water and sanitary sewer systems.

Most of the residents in attendance agreed that they’d hook up to the sewer lines, but the majority of them had their own well water and would not want to be hooked up to that system.

There were also questions about the ability to do the work, with residents pointing out the bedrock and the need to bore under the railroad tracks.

Kevin Bailey and Jared Fluhr of MSA Professional Services pre-

sented various options for moving forward, including a preliminary engineering study, a working design that could help the village apply for grants or loans, or the ability to combine multiple phases of the project in order to save time and money.

Peterson said the extension project has been in the works for 12 years, and one that was promised to those residents many years ago.

Though expensive, he said those residents pay their taxes and should have access to the village systems.

He said one resident has been unable to use their well for the past year, as it was contaminated with e. coli during the flood. Extending the lines will make the village compliant with

county, EPA and IDNR mandates.

The split vote to approve the preliminary engineering report meant the mayor could cast the tie-breaking vote. The study will look at the current and proposed systems, prepare and submit a water study report, and will look at whether the extension is even feasible.

In other action, the board tabled action on a sidewalk ordinance and purchasing security cameras for the maintenance shed.

They approved to do the mural removal at the village hall parking lot in-house, noting that it was likely sealed too soon during a week of hot weather, which is why the paint is peeling off.

recommends removing Kilbride from the bench because of his close ties to corrupt House Speaker Michael Madigan. In 2010, the last time Kilbride faced retention, Mike Madigan made Kilbride’s retention one of his top political priorities because he knew Kilbride was essential to retaining his power over the Supreme Court.

The Chicago Sun-Times called Kilbride’s retention Madigan’s “greatest victory” that year.

The Illinois Republican Party stated, “In return for millions in campaign cash from Madigan, Kilbride has reliably voted to

protect Madigan’s power and sided with Madigan’s powerful allies. Kilbride successfully blocked term limits, struck down the effort to end gerrymandered maps, and rejected pension reform in spite of criticism that he took millions of dollars from those with a stake in the decision.”

In return for Madigan’s millions, Kilbride has been a guaranteed vote against good government reforms that would limit Madigan’s power. In 2014, Kilbride blocked term limits, and in 2016, Kilbride was the deciding vote and wrote the majority opinion striking down the Fair Maps amendment, a citizen-led

bipartisan provision to create a nonpartisan redistricting commission to draw legislative districts, rather than a process controlled by Madigan.

Madigan currently enjoys a 4-3 advantage on the Illinois Supreme Court. If Kilbride is defeated, there would be an open contest for the seat in 2022 in the 3rd Judicial District.

If a Republican were to win that race, the GOP could control the state’s highest court for the first time.

MORRISON

BY TIMOTHY EGGERT teggert@saukvalley.com The teenage girl who pleaded guilty in January to the 2017 murder of her mother won’t know her punishment for at least another four months, after a circuit court judge approved a request Wednesday, Oct. 7 to delay her sentencing out of concerns related to the coronavirus pandemic.

Anna M. Schroeder, now 18, has been awaiting sentencing since May for the second-degree murder of her 53-year-old mother, Peggy Schroeder. Schroeder, who pleaded guilty to that charge on Jan. 8, faces four to 20 years in prison.

Although both sides will make sentencing recommendations, the length of Schroeder’s punishment will ultimately be up to Whiteside County Circuit Judge Trish A. Senneff, who has presided over the case since it first was filed in juvenile court.

Senneff approved an agreed-to motion made by Schroeder’s attorney, James Mertes, and Whiteside County State’s Attorney Terry Costello, to strike a two-day sentencing hearing on Nov. 4 and 6 because of uncertainties amid the coronavirus pandemic.

Mertes, who appeared via video conference, said he intends to call “several witnesses” to testify during the sentencing hearing, and that some, including a Chicago-based psychologist, had expressed discomfort over travelling and testifying in-person.

“They’re unwilling to testify in-person because of risks related to COVID-19,” Mertes said.

Costello, who appeared in the courtroom wearing a face covering, echoed the same concerns Mertes and his witnesses said they have over their potential exposure to and transmission of the virus.

Senneff said the court “will not comment on everyone’s concerns,” but nonetheless granted the joint motion, setting a case management conference for Feb. 26.

Unless regional public health guidelines or local conditions prevent otherwise, a sentencing hearing will likely take place after that date.

Wednesday’s postponement of Schroeder’s sentencing is not the first time the hearing has been delayed because of the pandemic.

Her original sentencing hearing scheduled for May 1 and 15 was struck due to limits on in-person courthouse proceedings, and was rescheduled for July 7 and 8. Those

Costello said after the hearing Wednesday that nobody could have predicted the coronavirus pandemic or it affecting Schroeder’s case.

“It’s frustrating to an extent, but it’s also understandable,” Costello said. “We want to move forward, but we don’t want to take any chances with anyone’s health.”

The teen was initially charged in juvenile court in June 2018 with two counts of first-degree murder, one count of arson and one count of concealing a homicidal death.

Costello that month successfully argued that she should be tried as an adult.

On July 6, 2017, in their Morrison home, Schroeder persuaded Peggy to cover her face with a towel, then shot her mother in the head with

Peggy’s own firearm.

Schroeder then texted a picture of her mother’s body to her then-girlfriend Rachel Helm, of Rock Falls.

The couple spent the next two days trying to clean the scene before setting the house on fire to conceal the murder.

Helm believed Peggy disapproved of the girls’ romantic relationship and planned to end it, and repeatedly urged Schroeder via text to kill her mother so they could be together, investigators have said.

Plans made by the couple to run away together fell apart when Helm told her mother, Lois Holland, what happened, and the they ultimately went to authorities.

Schroeder’s charges were all dismissed in January, as part of a limited plea agreement she entered in exchange for the newly entered second-degree murder charge.

Schroeder also agreed to waive her right to any appeals, including the right to challenge her transfer from juvenile to adult court, and to give up the possibility of being sentenced to probation rather than prison.

She has been held in the Mary Davis Home in Galesburg since July 8, 2017, will get credit for time served and will be allowed day-to-day credit, plus any credits she might earn for participating in Department of Corrections programs or employment.

YOUR HEALTH

Osteoporosis is a major cause of bone fractures

BY DR. STEPHEN D. HARRISON, MD Osteoporosis, which means porous or thin bone, is a common disease which involves the thinning of bones making them brittle and susceptible to fractures. It is a major cause of fractures of the hips, spine, and wrist in postmenopausal women and older people in general.

The longer men live, the more at risk they become for getting osteoporosis. In fact, all adults begin to lose bone starting at around age 35.

The rate rapidly accelerates during menopause.

Unfortunately, there may not be early symptoms or signs of osteoporosis. Usually the first sign is a broken wrist, hip, hunched back or loss of height. While the disease itself is not fatal, some experts feel that in an elderly female, the disease is just as important as breast cancer because the complications which occur may be quite severe.

The most important factor for women is the decreased estrogen level, which occurs in the postmenopausal status. Calcium deficiency is another important risk factor. As many as one-third of all postmenopausal women get less than half of the recommended daily allowance for calcium, which is 1000 mg a day.

Younger women should consume 1000 mg of calcium daily also which is roughly equivalent to the amount in 1 quart of milk. Calcium tablets also are an excellent source of supplemental calcium. The best form of calcium is calcium lactate.

Vitamin D supplementation is important as well, particularly for those who do not get the exposure from the sunlight. 1000 units of Vitamin D should be consumed regularly. Precaution, of course, needs to be given to sunlight and skin cancer.

This can be obtained in milk and dairy products as well as sunlight.

Some risk factors for osteoporosis include the following: Sex. Your chance of developing osteoporosis is much greater if you are a woman because of the lighter bone mass in general as well as the hormonal changes mentioned above.

Race. White and Asian women are at greatest risk because their bones are less dense. Black and Hispanics appear to have higher bone density.

Age. In general, as you age, your risk for osteoporosis increases.

Genetic influence. There is some evidence that this disease or condition runs in families.

Weight and stature. Thin, smallboned women are at greatest risk.

Lifestyle. Smoking, drinking more than two alcoholic beverages a day, lack of weight bearing exercise, and excessive amounts of caffeine will increase your chances of getting osteoporosis. Chronic steroid use or high thyroid doses also may contribute to bone loss.

What can be done to prevent or treat osteoporosis? Estrogen is a good source for preventing osteoporosis, though estrogen is used less these days because of potential side effects as well as other available agents. Estrogen is still helpful around menopause. There is mild increase in breast cancer, heart disease and clots.

The next category, Evista, is a synthetic product that tried to mimic the benefits of estrogen while minimizing the side effects. It is known as a SERM. Recent trials have not established that it has a protective benefit and lessens one’s risk for breast cancer, but appears fairly neutral on the heart though may have an occasional leg clot. Some will get leg cramps. Hot flashes are also a side effect on this medicine, particularly early on and closer to menopause.

The next category is the bisphosphonates, a totally different class and have nothing to do with the

hormonal mechanisms like estrogen. Rather, they work to maintain and even promote bone formation.

There are daily versions, once a week versions, and now even a once a month version for these, making them an attractive option for those who do not wish to take medications daily. There also is a quarterly injection and once a year IV infusion.

Most of the time, these are tolerated well, though occasionally there are gastrointestinal side effects. Occasional upset stomach, causing nausea, though they do not cause ulcers in general.

Another agent employed for osteoporosis is Miacalcin. While this agent does not get as much use as the other agents, it has been found to be helpful for those suffering from the back pain of osteoporosis. It is usually given in the nose by a spray once a day, alternating sides. Most people tolerate this fairly well, some may experience nasal irritation.

Newer agents have been developed which are even more powerful at maintaining and restoring some bone loss. Forteo is one such infection that mimics nature’s hormones for modeling bone. It is given by an injection once a day and is generally well tolerated. Prolia is an injection given every six months.

GOLF REGIONALS

BY BRIAN WEIDMAN bweidman@saukvalley.com A bad day from a good player can sometimes sink a boys golf team come regional time, but Newman was able to escape that unwanted fate Tuesday thanks to its strong depth.

The Comets overcame a rough day from their No. 1 player and took second place at the nine-team Class 1A Oregon Regional at Silver Ridge Golf Course.

Riverdale (337) and Newman (340) punched their tickets to the season-ending Spring Valley Sectional next at Spring Creek Golf Course.

There will be no state tournament this season, due to COVID-19.

Senior Blake Wolfe struggled to a 21-over-par 93 on a windswept morning and afternoon, but picking up the slack were Ty Brockman (83), Jacob Donald (84), Kyle Wolfe (85) and Logan Palmer (88).

“It shows the depth of our team,” Kyle Wolfe said. “We’ve got some younger guys that came and showed how good they can play. That really helped us out.”

Brockman finished in a three-way tie for third place with an 83, a

score he was pleased with. He birdied three holes (9, 11 and 17) to help offset a quadruple bogey on No. 4 and double bogeys on 5, 10 and 14.

“I felt like even if I had a club I wasn’t hitting today, I was able to go to something else and have it work,” Brockman said. “I felt like my putting was on point. I just felt like everything clicked today.”

Donald was in a three-way tie for sixth, Kyle Wolfe was solo ninth, and Palmer was in a three-way tie for 10th at 88. Palmer felt like he left a few shots on the course.

“I didn’t strike the ball very well, and my putting was not there,” Palmer said. “The greens were a lot different than I remembered from a couple of days ago. At the end of the day, I didn’t do too terrible, compared to the whole field.”

A new scoring system in which players entered scores on their cell phones allowed all involved the ability to keep track of how individuals and teams stood in real time. It made for some high drama on the last few holes, as Riverdale, Newman and Fulton, which was third at 342, battled it out for two team sectional berths.

Kyle Wolfe’s strategy was to not pay too much attention to that.

Fulton’s Ian Wiebenga takes a shot towards the green on #1.

“I started keeping track the last three holes,” Wolfe said. “I didn’t really want to look at it beforehand, to mess anything up. As soon as I knew we had a chance, I tried to knuckle down and do the best I could.”

Fulton was strong at the top with Ian Wiebenga (80, 2nd), Josh Vanderploeg (83, tied 3rd) and Patrick

Wiebenga (84, tied 6th) leading the way. The Steamers’ next best score, however, was a 95 by Landon Meyers. It left them two strokes behind Newman.

“It sucks,” Ian Wiebenga said. “I really wanted to make it as a team this year because it’s my brother’s

Wiebenga was in line for possible medalist honors, as he stood at 6-over-par through 17 holes. His second shot on the par-4 18th landed in a greenside bunker, and that trap shot went to the back fringe. It took three more to get down from there.

“The back nine I started putting good,” said Wiebenga, who birdied 8, 11 and 13. “I was lights out, and then 18 I doubled. I just hit a few bad shots.”

The top two teams and four individuals (plus ties) not on those teams advance to the sectional. That will be Riverdale, Newman, Fulton’s top three, as well as Erie-Prophetstown’s Bryce Rosenow and Amboy’s Wes Wilson, who each had 88 to tie with Newman’s Palmer for 10th place.

Erie-Prophetstown was fourth as a team with 370. Logan Wunderlich (90), Isaac Goodwin (91), Dawson Haggard (101) and Ethan Palmer (101) had the other counting scores for the Panthers.

Amboy finished in fifth at 378.

Wilson was backed by Hayden Wittenauer (93), Jackson Brubaker (97) and Austin Bogle (100).

Morrison was sixth with a 395 total. Mason Dykstra (95), Isaac Melton (97), David Stralow (100) and Beau Brackemeyer (103) were the Mustangs’ top four.

Oregon was seventh with a 404 score. The Hawks were led by Jarrett Dietrich (95), Isaac Kaltenbrun (97), Issac Reber (104) and Jackson Werren (108).

Bureau Valley finished eighth

with a 412 score. The Storm’s top players were Bryson Smith (93), Seth Spratt (100), Jackson Lind (105) and Cooper Balensiefen (114).

Riverdale had the medalist in James Moorhusen, who overcame a double-bogey 7 on the 17th hole with a routine par 4 on the 18th for a 7-over-par 79. He had his team’s only birdie, on the par-5 10th.

“Playing to the front of the greens and minimizing mistakes was my game plan all day,” Moorhusen said.

“Seventy-nine is a pretty high score for a regional win, but conditions were incredibly difficult today. I felt good about the way I played.”

INTERACTIVE ONLINE TOOL

Whiteside County receives award for online election dashboard

By TIMOTHY EGGERT teggert@saukvalley.com

An interactive online tool designed by Whiteside County to help voters navigate and understand election information was honored this fall

by Esri, a California-based geographic information system software supplier.

The Whiteside County Elections and Voters ArcGIS Hub website earned the Esri Special Achievement in GIS Award for its “innovative application of mapping and analytics technology, as well as thought leadership in the field of local government,” according to news release.

“I am very proud and excited for this recognition,” said Lauren Lee, the Whiteside County GIS coordinator. “I hope Whiteside County GIS will continue to innovate and provide location intelligence and solutions for our community.”

Lee has been the GIS coordinator for Whiteside County for 13 years, focusing on projects for all county departments. She holds a Bachelor of Science in meteorology, a Master of Science in

geography from Northern Illinois University and a geographic information systems professional certification.

She created the county’s election dashboard ahead of the 2020 election, aiming to make it easier to find local election and voter data, information and updated GIS applications, which had been spread over multiple county webpages, according to the release.

“The new Elections and Voters ArcGIS Hub site consolidated all the information and additionally provided a modern and user-friendly design for citizens and staff,” according to the release.

Whiteside County was selected for the award from more than 300,000 candidates and was one of 180 organizations in industries ranging from commercial to defense to transportation to nonprofit to telecommunications to government that were honored by Esri.

The winning election dashboard can be found at elections-whiteside.hub.arcgis.com.

MORRISON

BY SARAH FORD For Shaw Media A new business has joined the Main Street block in Morrison, bringing an event space and storefront rental to residents or businesses. A ribbon-cutting with the Morrison Chamber of Commerce was held on Sept. 3, and since then, business has been growing in the space that fits almost any need.

Located at 121 E. Main St., Mahaffey’s on Main Street is owned and operated by Sidonna Mahaffey. She moved to Morrison with her husband and five children from the Chicago suburbs over seven years ago, and they’ve been loving the opportunities and life in a smaller community. She said she was inspired to open the business to address a community need.

“I felt we needed a clean, affordable place to host birthday parties, as well as a place to host gatherings other than your home,” she said.

MOMS provides that space, whether for parties or lodging or even both.

The second floor, known as #MOMS, is a vacation rental available as a “home away from home” for both business or pleasure. The fully renovated 3-bedroom, one bath lodging has space for up to seven guests, with a fully functioning kitchen, Roku TVs in the living room and each bedroom, high speed wi-fi, a washer and dryer, and just steps away from the downtown dis-

Craft nights are also hosted at Mahaffey’s on Main featuring hand-painted signs.

“I wanted a place for families to stay while visiting Morrison without having to leave town,” Sidonna explained. “It’s important to me to offer a clean, safe place so visitors can be close by during a visit.” And she’s been busy letting people know these resources are available right in town.

Besides the rentals, Sidonna also hosts craft nights on the first Fridays of the month. The October event featured a hand-painted sign, with guests enjoying wine and snacks while working away. Each craft night is unique and advertised in advance, and RSVPs are required since each item is customized. There is also a grab-and-go option for crafters who want to work at home.

Sidonna is planning to host a full weekend crafting event on November 28-29. Kids can sign up to make custom ornaments with a photo for their family members, for only $5 each. “Since school is so different this year, I want to make sure kids all have an opportunity to make this for their family,” she said.

QUILTS FOR VETERANS

Morrison Rotarians hear program on Quilts of Valor Morrison Rotarian Suellen Girard presented an amazing program to her fellow Rotarians on Wednesday, Oct. 7.

Suellen is a volunteer quilt maker for the Quilts of Valor, which was founded in 2003 to supply service members and veterans touched by war with the comfort and healing of a quilt.

As of March 2020 this organization has provided over 250,000 quilts to veterans. Many of these soldiers have suffered some type of physical or psychological wound and a quilt can do so much to help them heal.

Even if you can’t sew a quilt you can donate funds to Quilts of Valor, www.qovf.org/ or you can donate

fabric to a locate QOV group.

Suellen pours her heart and soul into each quilt she makes because she knows she can honor the military service her dad gave to his country. She displayed four quilts she made that would easily bring several hundred dollars if she were to sell them.

The Rotary would like to thank Suellen for her dedication and the investment she makes to comfort our veterans and their families.

This certainly fulfills the Rotary motto of “Service about Self”.

If you would like to nominate someone for a quilt you can go to: www. qovf.org/nominations-awards/

COMMUNITY

WHOA dishes up chili at appreciation supper

BY SARAH FORD For Shaw Media

White Oaks Therapeutic Equestrian Center held their annual community appreciation chili supper on Friday evening, this year in drive-thru style due to Covid restrictions.

But that didn’t stop supporters from coming out, as vehicles were lined up to the entrance gate, waiting to place their order at the livestock pavilion.

The WHOA team of volunteers

kept the kitchen running smoothly and the wait time minimal. They took the orders, dished up chili, poured drinks, packed up to-go bags, and delivered them to the drivers.

Program Director Tawny Wiersema said it was by far the most well attended chili supper to date.

Pam and her dog Maggie of Morrison were among those patiently waiting for the dinner. She said her daughter-in-law is a horse vet tech, and she’s always had a fondness for the animals. Plus, she was happy to

support a local organization while getting dinner for her family members who were home harvesting the bean fields.

The menu included homemade chili, crackers, drinks, and cinnamon rolls fresh from Harvest Bakery & More in Erie. After only an hour and 15 minutes all the food was sold out, with 170 bowls of chili, 150 cinnamon rolls, 97 cups of hot apple

cider, and 45 cups of hot chocolate distributed. Though the meal was free, donations were accepted.

“Community support has just been absolutely amazing this year!

This is so important to our program since we were unable to have our larger raffle fundraisers during the Whiteside County Fair this year due to COVID. We love our supporters!!” said Tawny.

FULTON HIGH SCHOOL

B.L.I.N.D. leaders volunteer at walk September was suicide awareness month. The B.L.I.N.D. leaders of Fulton High School volunteered on Sept. 27 at the Breaking the Silence Suicide Awareness Walk held in Camanche, IA .

The leaders helped with t-shirt and raffle sales, putting awareness signs around the track and other various needs for the walk itself.

This year Fulton High School lost one of their own to suicide so this event was a personal connection for our leaders. These young leaders work in their community as a mentor to their peers and are there to provide a listening ear and a helping hand. They strive to remind everyone of the importance of being kind ALWAYS.

MORRISON HIGH SCHOOL

Morrison High School is reaching out to its alumni base in order to help current students consider their future career options.

Although many high schools’ “Wall of Fame” programs are limited to only the most high-profile, notable alumni—including prominent scientists, university professors, actors, business leaders, elected officials, and others—Morrison’s

Wall of Fame is designed to highlight diverse occupations pursued by alumni who have walked Morrison’s halls in past decades as well as recent years.

Once the information from alumni has been compiled, students will be able to view a printed bulletin board that will display respondents’ names, years of graduation, career field(s), and current city and state

of residence. Students who want to learn more about a particular field represented on the board will be able to submit their questions to Morrison High School’s main office, which will forward the questions to alumni who have expressed an interest in answering those questions.

If you are interested in being part of the “Wall of Fame” initiative,

MORRISON JUNIOR HIGH

Students to paint the sidewalks Starting this week, the seventh and eighth graders at Morrison Junior High, will be painting the sidewalks surrounding the school.

Each student is assigned a partner in class to create an idea of their choosing. There are certain requirements, such as: the painting will need to be a landscape, have primary, secondary and neutral colors. They need to paint a texture and blend 2-3 colors together to create interest.

The graded assignment will take approximately two weeks.

The students have an added interest in this assignment, as

there will be a friendly fun competition once they are done.

Once the painting is completed, a voting process will appear on Facebook, users will be able to vote for any of the paintings they enjoy.

After a two week voting period, likes will be tallied. Make sure to vote! The painters need your vote!

You will be able to find the competition on the School’s website and City1.

Unfortunately, Morrison’s Paint the Town had to be cancelled this year due to the Coronavirus. Morrison Junior High

School’s art teacher and CAPA board member, Jamie Harmon, decided to have the kids do this colorful and exciting assignment.

The kids will receive bags as they would have at Paint the Town to help them accomplish this task.

They will be painting during their art class time. Remote students will also be participating. They have the option of painting at their homes or coming at night to paint a sidewalk square in front of the school.

Take time to come down in the evening and check out the student’s progress!

please click the “Menu” link on Morrison High School’s Web site, www.morrisonschools.org.

The form is available by clicking on the “Alumni Wall of Fame Submission” link.

Questions can be directed to Connie Royer by email at connie. royer@morrisonschools.com and by phone at 815-772-4071, extension 12310 or 12105.

RESCUE TRAINING

First responders train for grain bin rescues On the cusp of harvest, first responders with 11 fire departments trained to thwart the potential tragedy of grain bin entrapments.

Rock Island County and Mercer County Farm Bureaus partnered with the Illinois Fire Service Institute and Sherrard FFA Chapter to offer free grain bin rescue safety and training recently. Representatives from 11 fire departments and farmers from both counties partici-

pated in hands-on training at Sherrard High School, according to Tara Mayhew, Rock Island County Farm Bureau manager.

“This was a new event. It made sense we partnered with Sherrard FFA. They did fundraising to buy and donate rescue tubes,” Mayhew said. She noted some of the chapter’s donated rescue tubes were even brought to the training session for practice.

Due to COVID restrictions, morning and afternoon training sessions were held to accommodate two groups of 50, and participants were able to watch a grain entrapment movie, “SILO,” before the training session.

In addition to the two county Farm Bureaus, several COUNTRY Financial representatives sponsored the event, including Brent Bigham,

Tracy Bigham, Stacey Brown, Shirley Helmick, Tara Kain, Troy Mayhew, Michael Moorhusen, Chad Nelson, Jason Potter, Bart Reed, Randy Rursch, Steve Sim and John Waugh.

Nationwide, 38 grain entrapment cases, a 27% increase, happened in 2019, according to Purdue University. That total number of fatal and nonfatal entrapments was the highest in four years.

To the Electors of the State of Illinois: The Illinois Constitution establishes a structure for government and laws. There are three ways to initiate change to the Illinois Constitution: (1) a constitutional convention may propose changes to any part; (2) the General Assembly may propose changes to any part; or (3) a petition initiative may propose amendments limited to structural and procedural subjects contained in the Legislative Article.

The people of Illinois must approve any changes to the Constitution before they become effective. The purpose of this document is to inform you of proposed changes to the Illinois Constitution and provide you with a brief explanation and a summary of the arguments in favor of and in opposition to the proposed amendment.

Proposed changes in the existing constitutional amendment are indicated by underscoring all new matter and by crossing with a line all matter which is to be deleted.

PROPOSED AMENDMENT TO SECTION 3 OF ARTICLE IX OF THE ILLINOIS CONSTITUTION ARTICLE IX – REVENUE SECTION 3. LIMITATIONS ON INCOME TAXATION (a) The General Assembly shall provide by law for the rate or rates of any tax on or measured by income imposed by the State. A tax on or measured by income shall be at a non-graduated rate. At any one time there may be no more than one such tax imposed by the State for State purposes on individuals and one such tax so imposed on corporations. In any such tax imposed upon corporations the highest rate shall not exceed the highest rate imposed on individuals by more than a ratio of 8 to 5. (b) Laws imposing taxes on or measured by income may adopt by reference provisions of the laws and regulations of the United States, as they then exist or thereafter may be changed, for the purpose of arriving at the amount of income upon which the tax is imposed.

EXPLANATION The proposed amendment grants the State authority to impose higher income tax rates on higher income levels, which is how the federal government and a majority of other states do it. The amendment would remove the portion of the Revenue Article of the Illinois Constitution that is sometimes referred to as the "flat tax," that requires all taxes on income to be at the same rate. The amendment does not itself change tax rates. It gives the State the ability to impose higher tax rates on those with higher income levels and lower tax rates on those with middle or lower income levels. You are asked to decide whether the proposed amendment should become a part of the Illinois Constitution.

ARGUMENTS IN FAVOR OF THE PROPOSED AMENDMENT Illinois' current tax system unfairly benefits millionaires and billionaires and this amendment will set things right for middle-class and working people. Currently, it is unfair that billionaires pay the same tax rate as regular people.

Voting "yes" on the amendment means that the State will enact a new tax structure where only those making above $250,000 a year will see their taxes go up. This amendment is simply upgrading Illinois' old tax system to a graduated system which is how the federal government and the majority of other states do it.

This Amendment Would Make Illinois' Tax System Fair.

Approval of this amendment would enact a fair system that allows the state to tax wealthy people at higher rates and lower income people at lower rates, replacing Illinois' current unfair tax system, in which wealthy people pay the exact same tax rate as lower and middle income people.

Illinois' current tax system unfairly benefits millionaires and billionaires, and approval of this amendment will set things right for the middle class and working people.

This amendment will help small business owners by creating a stable economic environment for their businesses to thrive.

While others try to mislead you, under the current tax system in Illinois, policymakers already have the authority to set any tax rate and to change tax rates at their will. The current system forces policymakers to charge the same tax rate to everyone, regardless of how much money they make. If this amendment passes, the State will have the ability to tax higher income earners at a different rate.

In fact, upon passage of this Amendment, a new tax structure will go into effect where 97% of taxpayers will pay the same or less, while only those making more than $250,000 a year will see a tax increase. This amendment does not tax retirement income.

The Federal Government and Most States Use the Graduated Tax System Proposed in this Amendment, Not the Unfair System Currently Used in Illinois.

Illinois is among a minority of states that do not utilize graduated tax rates because the Illinois Constitution requires a "flat tax" that penalizes middle-class and working people and benefits higher income individuals.

A majority of states and the federal government already use the kind of graduated income tax system proposed in this amendment to ensure that wealthy people pay their fair share of taxes.

Nearby states including Iowa, Minnesota, Missouri, Ohio, and Wisconsin are among the majority of states that have graduated tax systems.

Illinois' Current Income Tax System Relies on Taxes from Middle and Lower Income Earners, While a Graduated System Would Lower that Burden and Fund Critical Programs such as Education and Human Services.

While some states have fair tax rates in which the highest income earners pay the highest tax rate, Illinois' "flat tax" rate continues to rely unfairly on taxes from middle and lower income earners.

Under Illinois' "flat tax" structure, a nurse making $50,000 per year pays the same tax rate as an executive making $4 million per year. A graduated tax rate would have the executive pay more.

Because of the way our current tax system is set up, the bottom fifth of Illinois taxpayers (those making below $21,800) contribute 14.4% of their income to state and local taxes, compared to 7.4% for the top 1 percent of Illinois taxpayers.

If this Amendment passes, the State has already enacted a new graduated tax structure where 97% of taxpayers will pay the same or less.

Under the new tax structure, only the top 3% of Illinois income earners would pay more in income taxes. Everyone who makes $250,000 or less a year would pay the same or less.

Over 95% of small businesses earn $250,000 or less a year in profits, and their owners will not see a tax increase under the new tax structure.

This change will generate additional revenue each year that can help address Illinois' budget deficit and fund critical programs, including the State's education system, public safety, and social services like mental health and substance abuse treatment and domestic violence shelters.

After the COVID-19 Pandemic, We Need to Do All We Can to Help the Economy and Middle-Class and Working People.

Working people and essential workers like nurses, first responders, and grocery store clerks should not pay the same tax rate as the wealthy. Nurses making $50,000 a year should not pay the same tax rate as an executive making $4,000,000 a year.

Having wealthy people pay more would reduce the burden on working families. This is money that middle and lower income people need for housing, groceries, medicine, and essentials.

When the wealthiest people pay more, middle and lower income earners can pay less while the State funds critical services that our essential workers rely on.

ARGUMENTS AGAINST THE PROPOSED AMENDMENT 1) The Amendment gives the Legislature power to increase taxes on any group of taxpayers with no limits and no accountability and without any requirement to use the additional revenue to fund essential needs such as healthcare, education, or public safety.

2) Taxes and spending are out of control. The Legislature should not be allowed to keep raising taxes until they get their spending under control.

3) In the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, now is the worst possible time for a massive tax increase.

The Amendment gives the Legislature power to increase taxes on any group of taxpayers with no limits and no accountability and without any requirement to use the additional revenue to fund essential needs such as healthcare, education, or public safety.

The proposed amendment would give the Legislature unlimited new authority to increase income tax rates on any group of taxpayers at will, including low-income and middle-income families and small business owners. There would be no limit on the number of tax brackets that could be created and no limit on how high tax rates could be increased on individual taxpayers. In addition, this proposed change will pave the way for a tax on retirement income.

Nothing in the amendment requires the Legislature to do anything to control spending. Nor does it require funds to be spent on essential needs such as healthcare, education, or public safety. It would simply give the Legislature a blank check to spend billions of dollars however they want, with no accountability.

Taxes and spending are out of control. The Legislature should not be allowed to keep raising taxes until they get their spending under control.

Illinois already has some of the highest property taxes and sales taxes in the nation. And the Legislature has increased Illinois income tax rates twice in the past decade to try to deal with the out-ofcontrol spending in Springfield.

Even before the COVID-19 pandemic, our state had a huge and growing multi-billion-dollar budget deficit, and the unfunded pension liability skyrocketed to over $137 billion. That's because the Legislature has continued to increase state spending instead of eliminating government waste, corruption, and abuse.

Because they refuse to control spending or pass major reforms, the Legislature will just continue to raise taxes on everyone in Illinois, and middle-class families will be their next target.

In the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, now is the worst possible time for a massive tax increase.

The COVID-19 pandemic caused layoffs, unemployment, bankruptcies, and closures. As small businesses and local employers struggle to rebuild, this is the worst possible time to impose huge new tax increases. Even before the COVID-19 crisis, many residents and businesses were leaving the state because of the high tax burden. If the Amendment passes, it would be the last straw for thousands of small businesses, causing more jobs to leave the state, and making Illinois lose out on investments to rebuild our economy. This would mean fewer jobs and less opportunity for Illinois families.
