Will urban chickens fly?

Council debates urban chickens, possibly creating city ordinance

By AMY HANSEN

OST news editor • ahansen@osceolaiowa.com

What came first — the urban chicken or urban egg?

Osceola City Council discussed the possibility of people keeping chickens within the city and creating an urban-chicken ordinance during its Oct. 3 meeting.

There was a request on the agenda to have chickens at 306 N. Fillmore St. The request is currently for three chickens, and eventually, the number will increase to five.

There is a city code regarding livestock. Part of the code says it is unlawful for a person to keep livestock, which includes chickens, within the city limits, except by written consent of the council.

“I guess, your honor, in the past, some of our approvals have been alreadyexisting operations,” said Councilman Dr. George Fotiadis, “and I know we’ve

asked this question before, where do we stop?”

Mayor Fred Diehl said many previous chicken approvals have been with people who have had chickens “forever and ever.”

Chicken grievances/advantages Fotiadis said he doesn’t view chickens as objectionable, but some people do.

“The roosters do sing a little bit,” Fotiadis said. “You have their waste management. And, do you want a backyard with a nice, green lawn, and then, right there, a backyard with fences and patches that looks like a livestock confinement?

Which neighborhoods do we exclude and which neighborhoods do we protect?

Where do we go?”

Councilwoman Sarah Truitt said she has many friends who live in the Beaverdale area of Des Moines and have chickens.

Denis Weiser with Miller Products, left, guides Gov. Terry Branstad on a tour of the manufacturing business Oct. 1.

Find your skill Branstad, Reynolds tour Miller Products, discuss jobs that require trade skills

OST news editor ahansen@osceolaiowa.com

G

ov. Terry Branstad and Lt. Gov. Kim Reynolds made a stop Oct. 1 in Osceola to celebrate National Manufacturing Week.

They toured Miller Products with Miller Products staff; Sen. Amy Sinclair, R-Allerton; officials from the state’s community colleges and Bill Trickey, executive director of Clarke County Development Corporation.

Branstad said his office has worked with Iowa Association of Business and Industry, and Miller Products has been a longtime member, dating back to the Iowa Manufacturers’ Association.

“They have a long history,” he said.

“So, we thought this was a good, solid Iowa company, and it would be good

to visit and see the changes and progress that’s taken place here.”

About Miller Products Miller Products was founded in 1936 as a bicycle dealer and kickstand manufacturer. The business has evolved into a supplier of screw-machine products.

Miller Products manufactures a line of stock nonthreaded pins. This line includes a wide range of lock, hitch, bent and tension-lock-hitch pins.

In addition to its stock line, they also manufacture custom-turned machine parts.

Manufacturing From Sept. 30 to Oct. 4, Branstad and Reynolds toured manufacturing businesses across the state of Iowa.

According to a press release from the governor’s office, there are more than 3,500 companies engaged in manufacturing in Iowa, employing more than 211,000 Iowans with an av-

erage wage of more than $51,000. All told, the manufacturing sector contributes more than $27.6 billion, or 18 percent, to Iowa’s gross state product.

After the tour was held at Miller Products, Branstad and Reynolds discussed the state’s growing problem of manufacturing jobs available, but not enough people have the trade skills or education available to fill these jobs.

Branstad said the challenge is communicating to young people there are good jobs paying $20 an hour or more, however many of these jobs require technical skills.

“Unfortunately, some of those jobs can’t be filled because we can’t find people with the right skill set,” he said. “We hear this everywhere we go around the state Iowa and, I guess, around the country.”

Webb said the fair board has worked hard to make improvements to the fairgrounds, including parking lot lights, concrete work, new buildings and work on the cattle barn.

“It’s quite an honor to us, it really is,” Webb said. “It just means that we’re growing. We’re improving.

THURSDAY • OCTOBER 10, 2013

October is National Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and Clarke County Hospital wants to stress the importance of preventive breast care through annual mammograms.

One in eight women will be diagnosed with breast cancer in their lifetime, but cancers detected in its earliest stages have a 98 percent cure rate, according to the American Cancer Society (ACS).

Janelle Baker, diagnostic imaging manager at Clarke County Hospital, believes regular screening is vital.

“Mammograms save lives,” Baker said, “Treatments for cancers in its earliest stages are safer and less intensive on patients, and the key to finding cancer is through the mammogram.”

Women 40 years and older are recommended to screen for breast cancer through a mammogram every year.

Women with family members who were diagnosed with breast cancer may be at a higher risk and need to talk with their health-care provider about additional preventive care.

Clarke County Hospital

offers digital mammography year round, covered by most insurance providers and Medicare. This advanced technology records images more clearly and allows medical staff and radiologists to enhance the image for a more accurate diagnosis. To schedule an appointment, call 641-342-5353.

“Though October is National Breast Cancer Awareness Month, women should be conscious of their health throughout the year,” Baker said. ”Awareness is the first step – and a very important one.”

About Clarke County Hospital Clarke County Hospital is a 25-bed, critical access hospital with advanced diagnostic and telemedicine technology.

Through telemedicine and visiting physicians, patients can receive specialized care close to home, including cardiology; nephrology; neurology; oncology; hepatology; general and vascular surgery; orthopedics; dermatology; pulmonology; gastroenterology; urology; and ear, nose and throat (ENT) services.

Enid LaVonne Kendall, daughter of Henry William Siefkas and Eula LaRue Kelley (Siefkas) was born July 15, 1929 in Osceola, Iowa and passed from this life Wednesday, September 4, 2013 at Southern Hills Specialty Care at 84 years of age.

Enid grew up on a farm in the Lacelle area. She attended Knox #2 country schools all of her grade school years. Her education continued in country schools through the elementary years and then came to Osceola, where she graduated from High School. She went on to Simpson and completed her education at Drake.

Enid began her career as a teacher in rural country schools with five years, three in Clarke and two in Wright County. She then worked at Saylor Feed & Grain, then became a catalog desk manager for J.C. Penney’s and went on to Hy-Vee Food Stores for nearly 15 years before being elected as the Clarke County Recorder, a position she held for 16 years and continued after retirement to work at Terrible’s Lakeside Casino for 12 years.

As a child, she attended the Lacelle Methodist Church, and then became acquainted with the beliefs in the Lutheran Church.

She was a member of the United Methodist Church in Osceola and the Clarke County Republican Women. Enid worked very hard for the Republican Party. She enjoyed bowling and was an avid Hawkeye fan and loved football and basketball. She loved spending time with friends, family and especially having the kid’s friends at the house, conversing and counseling them and enjoyed hearing about her grandkids and great grandkids. She was never happy sitting idle!

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

TRADE SKILLS:

Needing your support Councilwoman Sarah Truitt Osceola

Over the past three years, I have enjoyed serving the city of Osceola as the 2nd Ward councilperson. My husband and I look forward to the future here and raising our two daughters in this community. We are invested in seeing Osceola continue to grow and prosper.

While I’ve been on the council, the city has remained tax neutral for several years in a row, created more than 200 jobs and completed and begun to implement a new comprehensive plan, among other things.

Osceola is on the brink of some

other exciting projects, including a downtown façade renovation, Safe Routes to School, a program that helps fund sidewalks, and the restoration of the train depot. Fortunately, the city has received a substantial amount of grant money to help fund these projects that are so important to our community.

I am asking for the support of the people who live in Ward 2 on Nov. 5.

I want to continue to represent constituents in an educated, moderate and thoughtful way, and help the city provide the best services and quality of life possible. There is a lot of work yet to be done, but I know that with my help, Osceola has a bright future.

Skilled Iowa Initiative According to Branstad, the state has started the Skilled Iowa Initiative, a program providing assurances to employers and potential employers that local workforces have the skills and abilities to fill job openings.

The initiative promotes the National Career Readiness Certificate (NCRC) testing to potential job seekers, encourages businesses to hire certified workers when applicable and provides resources to those looking to improve their skills.

STEM Reynolds said it is also important to focus on the state’s STEM Initiative. STEM is an acronym standing for science, technology, engineering and mathematics.

According to the Iowa Governor’s STEM Advisory Council website, STEM is, “an interdisciplinary approach to learning where rigorous academic concepts are coupled with real-world lessons as students apply science, technology, engineering and mathematics in contexts that make connections between school, community, work and the global enterprise, enabling the development of STEM lit-

URBAN CHICKENS: October is Disability stink.

Employment Awareness Month Bigger cities Continued from Page 1

In October, Mosaic invites Osceola to observe National Disability Employment Awareness Month by paying tribute to the accomplishments of the men and women with disabilities whose work helps keep our community’s economy strong and by reaffirming their employer’s commitment to ensure equal opportunity for all citizens.

Throughout the month, many events are held across the country to recognize individuals with disabilities as contributors and the employers who recognize the importance of full inclusion in the workplace.

Communities hold special events, civic organizations welcome guest speakers to discuss equal employment opportunities and service providers like Mosaic will host activities and events to show their appreciation of their local businesses who employ individuals with disabilities.

Mosaic in South Central Iowa will be recognizing and thanking those companies in the area who employee individuals with disabilities. Locally those companies include HyVee, Astoria, Miller Products, McDonald’s, The Advertiser, The Exchange and Cornerstone Suites.

This effort to educate the public about the issues related to disability

OSCEOLA SENTINEL-TRIBUNE

and employment began in 1945 when Congress enacted Public Law 176, declaring the first week of October each year as National Employ the Physically Handicapped Week.

In 1962, the word “physically” was removed to acknowledge the employment needs and contributions of individuals with all types of disabilities.

Approximately 25 years later, Congress expanded the week to a month and changed the name to National Disability Employment Awareness Month.

“People with disabilities must be woven into our work culture. Already, we benefit from the incredible array of talent they bring to our workplaces. But we must raise the bar, we must create the inexorable expectation that people with disabilities will contribute in every way to our economic successes. Only by nurturing this expectation and providing people with disabilities with unlimited employment opportunities, can we all benefit from their talents,” said Kathy Martinez, assistant secretary of labor for disability employment.

Mosaic in South Central Iowa has assisted more than 10 individuals with intellectual disabilities gain meaningful employment throughout south central Iowa.

She said people are becoming more concerned with processed foods and hormones in food.

“People are way more likely to want to have their own eggs,” Truitt said. “The way that we eat is changing, and it surprises me that in a more rural area we would be so adamantly against having chickens.”

Truitt added she would rather have chickens than neighborhood dogs who are unruly and

Wheeler said he knew Iowa City had an urban-chicken ordinance that is restrictive with fees, coop cleanliness and having no more than four chickens.

“It’s a revenue-generating approval,” Wheeler said. “The only problem is, in cities of that size, you’ve got departments — animal control-type personnel — that can handle that kind of thing.”

A joke was made about using

eracy, and with it, the ability to compete in the new economy.”

“Almost everything requires math and science, and for our young people to be successful and to be ready for a career for higher education when they leave high school, they need to know how to communicate and problem solve,” Reynolds said.

“Science and math just impacts everything that they do.”

Reynolds said the STEM Initiative and its programs have reached approximately 100,000 students across the state this year.

“We’re really excited. We’re working on the future,” she said.

Osceola Police Department for chicken inspections.

“I want to go on the record and say the police department likes chicken,” said Osceola Police Chief Marty Duffus.

The jokes continued with people saying police officers best like their chicken fried.

Once the laughter died down, the council decided to take no action during the meeting and discuss the issue at a later date when more urban-chicken ordinance information is available.

Recognition Clarke County Fair Board members have been asked to put together a pictorial display and written summary for the upcom-

ing Association of Iowa Fairs conference and annual meeting Dec. 13-15.

The fair board will receive recognition and a plaque at the conference’s awards banquet Dec. 13.

Webb said many fair-board members will be attending the

awards banquet. Once the fair board receives the plaque, Webb said it would most likely be displayed in the events center at Clarke County Fairgrounds.

“I just want to give great thanks to all my board members,” Webb said. “Without them, we couldn’t have done it.”

OSCEOLA SENTINEL-TRIBUNE

Fibroids and polyps: What women should know about a common health problem (BPT) - Women might be surprised to know that most of them will develop fibroids or polyps as a health issue sometime in their lives. In fact, studies show that 70 percent of white women and 80 percent of AfricanAmerican women will develop fibroids by the time they are 50. Although these growths are among one of the most common health problems a woman can face, few know what they are, what the symptoms can be, and what treatments are available to them. So what is a fibroid or polyp and how do you know if you have them?

Fibroids and polyps Fibroids and polyps are growths in a woman’s uterus that are usually benign but can be malignant in some cases. While they are mostly be benign, some of the most substantial problems they cause for women result in infertility, trouble with getting pregnant and suffering recurring miscarriages.

Polyps are small growths on the surface of the uterine wall, an overgrowth of the lining that is easy for the ob-gyn to remove. Fibroids are larger and are usually imbedded in the smooth muscle of the uterine wall.

Fibroids vary in type, size, and where they grow in the uterus. Two types of fibroids can grow inside the uterus on a stalk or outside

the womb.- Others can grow just below the lining of the uterus. Some fibroids grow in the middle of the uterine wall and some develop under the outer covering of the uterus. Heredity and race can increase your risk of developing fibroids.

Uterine polyps usually occur in women in their 40s and 50s. Factors that can put you at risk for fibroids are obesity, high blood pressure and a history of cervical polyps. Endometrial polyps - or those that grow in the lining of the uterus - occur in 10 percent to 25 percent

of women, and are present in 25 percent of women with abnormal uterine bleeding, or heavy periods. What are the symptoms?

While some fibroids and polyps can go undetected based on size and where they are located, there are a number of symptoms that women should be aware of.Many will suddenly suffer from heavier periods than usual (lasting seven days or longer), sensations of abdominal or pelvic-area bloating, belly or pelvic pain, constipation, or pain during sexual intercourse.

While none of these symptoms are life-threatening, they can detract from a woman’s quality of life.

If you’ve been diagnosed with fibroids or polyps, you should talk with your health care provider about your treatment options.

Treatment options There’s no single best treatment approach. For uterine fibroids and polyps, your doctor might recommend “watchful waiting,” where active treatment is unnecessary unless the fibroid or polyp changes or if you’re at risk for develop-

ment of cancer.

Certain hormonal medications, including progestins, may shrink polyps and lessen symptoms. But such medications are short-term solutions at best-- symptoms typically recur once you stop taking the medicine.

Fibroids usually grow slowly-- or not at all-- and tend to shrink after menopause when levels of reproductive hormones drop.

Medications for fibroids target hormones that regulate your menstrual cycle, treating symptoms such as

heavy menstrual bleeding and pelvic pressure. They don’t eliminate fibroids, but may shrink them.

As recently as 20 years ago, hysterectomy was the standard treatment for fibroids and polyps. In addition to the complete loss of fertility that comes with a hysterectomy, patients routinely faced long, painful recuperation times - six weeks or more. New procedures for laparoscopic hysterectomies may have reduced recovery time for some women, but did nothing to prevent the loss of fertility and hormonal changes associated with a hysterectomy.

Today, alternatives exist that are less invasive and can be performed on an outpatient basis. These procedures, such as the MyoSure tissue removal system, can eliminate fibroids and uterine polyps without having to cut or remove any part of the uterus. The MyoSure System works for fibroids located within the uterus, is a short procedure which allows you to go home the same day. The procedure can help eliminate fibroids and polyps as well as the heavy periods that may be associated with them. To learn more, or to find a doctor who can perform the procedure, visit www.changethecycle.com or Facebook.com/ChangetheCycle.

The real brew-haha may be on you Americans down 6.3 billion (yes, with a “b”) gallons of brewski a year without really knowing what’s in the brew. You may think you know, but most large American macro-breweries are hush-hush about what goes into their pale, watery, low alcohol (around 5 percent) beers. They care more about their bottom line and taking shortcuts to activate your taste buds than your health or your waistline.

It seems some of the suds that find their way to you from, oh, let’s say the Rocky Mountains, contain ingredients that hardly reflect a brewer’s art. Bad addition No. 1? Genetically modified high fructose corn syrup, a key player in our national obesity and diabetes epidemic. How does this happen?

Well, American beers are regulated by the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau, not the Food and Drug Administration, and can contain GMO rice, sugars and syrups; dextrose, maltose and corn syrup; plus caramel coloring class III and IV, which are classified as carcinogens; and food colorings FD&C blue No. 1, yellow No. 2 and red No. 40, all linked to asthma, allergies and perhaps hyperactivity. Throw in some alcohol and a little BPA from the lining of the can or keg and ... this brew’s not for you!

Certified organic beers, however, are not allowed to contain GMOs, nor do many European brews, and microbreweries tend to go for traditional ingredients.

And you can always enjoy a glass of heart-friendly wine (one a day for women; two

for men) if you’re not at risk for alcohol-related problems. Cheers!

DODGING THE OBESITY BULLET John Candy, Dan Blocker and Marlon Brando shared more than talent, unfortunately. They’re not-so-living proof of the latest findings on the risks of body fat: Obesity kills. And contrary to that list of stars, it’s women who seem to be tipping the scales most dangerously.

About 27 percent of deaths of Caucasian women and 22 percent of black women can be attributed to being overweight, while it’s only 5 percent for white men and 16 percent for black men.

You don’t have to be morbidly obese to die from carrying too much fat. Even an extra 10-20 pounds over your ideal weigh increases your risk of premature death if you’re between 3064 years old!

Luckily, you can avoid becoming one of those statistics!

First, make a commitment to maintain a healthy weight — then enlist friends and family to join in. Sign up for classes and groups that aim for healthy exercise and diet choices. The power of two or more to help you stick with a new, healthy routine is amazing.

Get moving: You and a workout buddy should aim to walk 10,000 steps a day — or jog, swim or cycle for 30-60 minutes. A minute of

exercise counts as 100 steps.

And do strength-training two to three days a week.

The power of two also applies to food! Arrange with a work pal to take turns bringing in healthful lunches. At home, get everyone involved in meal planning, with great-tasting veggies, lean protein and whole grains.

These three steps can reshape your body — and your future!

GIVE THE COLD SHOULDER TO COLD SORES In the 1960s “Batman” series, Mr. Freeze, played

by Otto Preminger, blasted Robin and Batman with his freeze gun. It was great fun.

But when the herpes simplex 1 virus blasts its DNA into your cells (with more pressure than a car tire), the resulting cold sore is not very amusing, especially when you have to face the world with it playing a starring role on your lip.

Around 60 percent of folks in North America between the ages of 14 and 49 carry the cold-sore virus, and the sores do come and go (there’s no known cure).

Seems that when your immune system has to fight off other infections, it’s less able to suppress this one, and you get a flare. Your best protection is to keep your immune system strong.

checked so you can adjust the dose to what you need.

—Take probiotics so that gut bacteria help you fight the good fight.

—Enjoy regular physical activity (10,000 steps a day) and eat an anti-inflammatory diet that avoids the Five Food Felons (added sugars and sugar syrups, any grain that’s not 100 percent whole, all trans and most saturated fats).

For treatment of flares, tune in to clues that one’s coming (burning or tingling at the future site), and act fast to cut it short. Use antiviral cream containing docosanol or acyclovir, or a combination of 5 percent acyclovir and 1 percent hydrocortisone. There also are antiviral pills. And concealing patches or medical makeup can make you feel less conspicuous as the sore heals.

TEENAGERS AND THE IMPORTANCE OF OMEGA 3S On “The Patty Duke Show” (1963-1966), Patty’s adolescent brother Ross (Paul O’Keefe) was sharp as a tack and pretty resilient, considering how his sister Patty treated him. So, with a bit of retrospective forensic guessing, we’d say he definitely was not deficient in omega-3 fatty acids. Turns out this powerful, healthy oil (found in salmon and ocean trout) not only helps protect your heart, brain and immune system, but for teens, it also affects dopamine levels and mood. A deficiency creates anxiety and depression.

If you think your adolescent seems extra moody — a good dose naturally comes

with the territory, since all those hormones are flying around — consider this. A new study points out that a diet deficient in omega-3s can contribute to teenage angst. And for you not-yetparents of teens, listen up.

Parents’ omega-3 deficiency can trigger emotional and health problems in future children. You need to make sure you’re getting a good supply, not just for your own health, but for the next generation’s as well!

—Serve fish (salmon and ocean trout, plus tuna and mackerel) two to three times weekly. And encourage teens to snack on six to 12 walnut halves.

—For extra protection, adults should take 900 mg a day of DHA omega-3 (we like algal oil). Teens should be encouraged to get as much from food as possible, and then add a lower-dose supplement (about 400 mg of DHA daily).

—And pick up a copy of “YOU: The Owner’s Manual for Teens”; it has tips on how to make everyone more understanding and less grumpy!

KEEP PLAYING (AND LOVIN’) WITH BACK PAIN In sports, playing with pain is a given. No pain, no gain — right? Well, try a sporty tumble in the hay when your back aches! Although there was a certain American president who was famous for it (at least that was the Marilyn Monroe-fueled rumor), for regular folks, having sex when your back hurts isn’t an appealing idea. In fact, up to 85 percent of people with chronic back pain say they

avoid sex because they fear increased discomfort and that they won’t be able to carry through with the act.

But you can do a lot to ease lower back pain and get back to enjoying time with your honey.

1. Reduce stress to ease pain and anxiety. Pet companionship is a known emotional stress reducer, as is 10 minutes of meditation, twice daily. A licensed physical therapist can ease physical stress in tight muscles and sore tissue. If pain persists after eight weeks, see a specialist.

2. Talk to your doctor about non-opiate pain-relief meds that won’t dull your lust for life.

3. Ease pain with smart sleeping positions. Put a small pillow under your knees when sleeping on your back. Put a pillow between your legs at your knees when you sleep on your side (no tight fetal positions). Keep pillows pretty flat. Now you’ll get the sleep you need to feel rested and interested in sex again.

4. For intimacy: You’re best lying on your back or trying new positions and activities — experiment, enjoy and go slow! *** Mehmet Oz, M.D. is host of “The Dr. Oz Show,” and Mike Roizen, M.D. is Chief Wellness Officer and Chair of Wellness Institute at Cleveland Clinic.

Why into why not?

By Pastor Eddie D. West Pastor Tom Murr

This is a thought from Pastor Tom C. Murr, Woodburn Methodist Church.

Pastor West has served churches for many wonderful years of his life. Last week, I received this letter from Pastor West.

One thought in his letter stood out for me, “Turning a why, into a why not?”

This is a letter from Pastor Eddie D. West, Eula West and family.

“I am, recovering from bone cancer (multiple Myeloma).

The way I see it ...

It was last February that I became weak and for three months I asked God why I had to deal with this illness.

Christ Jesus is my savior and my elder brother.

To allow God to change my lifestyle so that others may be lifted up and experience spirited transfusions in their life is my prayer. I’m sure I have more than 1,000 people praying for my recovery. Let God’s will be done. Look at it this way folks, to see and experience a miracle, you have to start with a crisis.

Jesus waited four days after these sisters of Lazarus had their crisis to perform his miracle of defeating and overpowering death itself. Praise his name!

Last week at 2 a.m., God’s Holy Spirit revealed to me of all He has given me and my family over these many years, and now I am praying “Why not me?”

Jesus glorified God by his death. Can I do any less?”

12 SPORTS Wise competes in Lake Tahoe Ironman event THURSDAY • OCTOBER 10, 2013

LAKE TAHOE, Cali.

— Andrew Wise, a 1999 Clarke Community High School graduate, competed in the inaugural Lake Tahoe competition here on Sept. 22.

Wise, 33, finished 206th overall out of more than 2,700 entrants with a time of 11 hours, 54 minutes and 25 seconds. That was good enough to place Wise 39th in the men’s 30-34 age division.

The Ironman triathlon consists of a 2.4-mile swim, 112-mile bike ride and a 26.2-mile run.

OSCEOLA SENTINEL-TRIBUNE

Wise set a new personal record in the marathon segment of the race in 3 hours, 48 minutes and 21 seconds. He ranked 39th in his age division and 206th overall during the marathon segment, averaging 8:42 per mile during the run.

He was especially happy with his time, considering how brutal the bike course was.

Wise was close to his PRs in both the swimming and the biking segments of the race, completing the swim in 1:18:25 and the

bike ride in 6:33:28.

His performance in the swimming segment placed him 113th in his division.

Wise then moved up in the biking portion, where he ranked 60th in his division.

Lake Tahoe Ironman, according to Triathlete Magazine, proved to be the toughest race of the top 30 Ironman events in North America in 2013. Reasons for this rating included the number of entries who either did not finish (DNF) Please see IRONMAN, page 13

“Our defense played well all night,” Shields said. “We gave up negative 27 yards rushing in the first half, and 18 passing. During the second half they had 22 yards rushing and 5 passing. We got positive contributions from ev-

He shared information on items the board should expect from the Superintendent. Traits for the Superintendent to display are Trust, Honesty, support, willingness to openly communicate.

Board member Arzani said A and C of October 10 goals are still important and are common theme. Dr. Craig asked how to measure these to set goals and provide timeline measurements. Board member Arzani said the personnel complaints have been less to board members. Bobbie Finley shared information on how good the leadership meetings assist each leader.

President Gray said that each person at I35 is called to be a leader and accountability is very important, which leads to common adhesion and meeting goals. Gray also said each month should have measurements to the year-end goal and some are natural leaders and some are taught the skills to be a leader. Board member Brownlee said these are high level goals and then the Superintendent is to work with each individual to make them accountable. Board member Arzani said looking at administration to give more delegation to leadership team. Dr. Craig said with these goals they should align with his personal evaluation measurements. Board Member Arzani said he would like to see what projects are given to the leadership team and the oversight of meeting these goals. Dr. Craig said he was blown away for the quality of the survey results he sent regarding instructional practices. Gray said looking at leadership in each individual on the leadership team on their department and how to build leadership this way. Board member Arzani said leaders should come to a meeting ready to participate and how to evaluate the process. Gray said it could be as simple as what are the top 3 leadership traits are to be looked at. Dr. Craig said these are the recommended next steps: Include accountability and get some comments on the admin team to set the goals in alignment of the board priorities. He said people need to feel valued and to grow capacity this way and to assist in student achievement. Shared information on the plans for the first professional development day this September 30th. He also shared on social engagement activities being offered to employees. Board member Arzani said trust is built on mutual respect and bring some fun to the job. Board member Brownlee said to get 360 feedback from peer reviews would also benefit in meeting these board priorities. Dr. Craig said he would like to make sure employees have evaluations which help them to grow leadership. Dr. Craig said he would get back to the board at the next meeting on the priorities.

VI. Graduation 2014 Date and TimeDr. Craig shared the 2014 Graduation requirements to the law compliance which would be the 25th of May. He said on Saturday May 24th would run into state track.

He said the time was to be at noon on Sunday May 25th and some concerns were addressed. Dr. Craig reached out to some of the people with concerns to see how the date and time would affect them. He said Sunday makes the most sense to have the 2014 Graduation. Board Member Arzani said the time for it to be at a later time in the afternoon is what has been customary for the district. Gray and Brownlee asked how would the first Saturday in June work. A student council representative said people start booking and planning for

He said Sunday makes the most sense to have the 2014 Graduation. Board Member Arzani said the time for it to be at a later time in the afternoon is what has been customary for the district. Gray and Brownlee asked how would the first Saturday in June work. A student council representative said people start booking and planning for graduation so it would be difficult to change the date, but the time may be negotiable. Board Members agree that noon will not work and that 2 pm should still be the time that will work. Dr. Craig said the time was already published at noon.

Brownlee shared information on how she has received comments on the time. Gray said whatever the decision is for the time but it needs to be addressed. Dr. Craig said the time was set back in April or May. Board member Arzani complimented Dr. Craig on asking all the clergy and religious groups on how the date and time will impact services.

VII. Board of Education Self-Assessment Summary Dr. Craig provided follow up information on the options to consider. He said can have follow up by consultants who can range from 750 to 1500.00 to go over and have a workshop.

Board member Arzani said the board has a lot of talent on the board. Gray said they need to have a 3rd party individual to conduct a workshop to help develop the board members in accordance with the self-assessment results. Dr. Craig said it appears many times there is not open and honest communication between administration and the board. Superintendent Craig shared information on other schools board shake ups and agendas that don t align with administration and school board members that are all student focused and not personal agendas. Dr. Craig said he could call Harry at IASB to complete a workshop. Board member Arzani said he would like to retake the survey in January to see if opinions have changed.
