Remembering Rice Street

Solid Ground: 30 years of bringing homeless home BY SARA MARIE MOORE EDITOR

There are about 37,000 rental units in the Twin Cities that are considered affordable to very low-income families, but 109,000 families who need them. Solid Ground, a supportive housing agency based in White Bear Lake, aims to decrease that gap. It works with homeless families referred to them in Washington and Ramsey counties. “All the families we serve have experienced homelessness or were at imminent risk,” said Trisha Cummins Kauffman, the organization’s executive director. Many, but not all, have experienced domestic violence. The nonprofit organization has two transitional housing sites — one near Century Avenue in White Bear Lake and another in Maplewood specifically for veteran families. It also has scattered-site transitional housing in Washington and Ramsey counties. Solid Ground provides a portion of the rent. It works with landlords across the area and tries to place families near where they were previously living so the children’s education is not disrupted. In 2018, Solid Ground housed 82 families (107 adults and 190 children) through its five programs, according to its annual report. In White Bear Lake at East Metro Place, it has 20 transitional housing units (for up to two years) and 14 permanent units, Kauffman said. All residents have leases; rent is 30 percent of income

BY NICOLA K. HYSER

“Discriminating against Section 8 is discriminating against poor families,” Kauffman noted. The families who go through their program are given tenant training and landlords shouldn’t be nervous — it’s a guarantee that rent will be paid.

You might not know it to look at it — that is, if you even dare to drive along it these days because of the Ramsey County Rice Street bridge construction project — but a lot of interesting history is buried along that stretch of road west of Vadnais Lake that runs south over I-694 directly into Little Canada and Shoreview. After Vadnais Heights was founded in the 1840s by French Canadian farming families along the east shore of Vadnais Lake (today’s Edgerton Street and Centerville Road intersection), other families followed, not only to farm around Vadnais Lake and nearby but also to create new businesses. One of those families — the Basil and Celine Ste. Marie family — ran a boarding house beginning in the 1880s on the east side of Rice Street. To be exact, the northeast corner of Rice Street and Country Drive in Little Canada, where Caribou Coffee now sits. The Ste. Marie family catered to railway workers and passengers at the Cardigan Junction Depot. The depot sat west of the boarding house and Rice Street along the Soo Line track (on North Owasso Boulevard, Shoreview). Today, a credit union and Burger King restaurant occupy the depot space.

and the rest is subsidized through Section 8. Still, Solid Ground wishes it could do more. In Washington County, there is a yearlong waiting list for a housing provider such as Solid Ground. The agency’s biggest challenge is finding developers or landlords that are willing to work with low-income families.

Hiking Vadnais Point BY SARA MARIE MOORE EDITOR

The view from Vadnais Point is worth the short hike off the main trail in Vadnais-Sucker Lakes Regional Park. At the point is a sweeping 180-degree view of lakeshore fi lled with trees. The only buildings to be seen are for the St. Paul Regional Water Services center. The lake is a water supply for St. Paul, thus its shore is protected from further development. To get to Vadnais Point, you can enter the park either at the gate off Edgerton Street just north of Vadnais Boulevard or at the corner of McMenemy Street and Koehler Road. There is a parking lot at Edgerton Street and Vadnais Boulevard.

SHOREVIEW

There is no parking lot at the northern entrance. From Edgerton Street, follow the gravel trail west about half a mile until it starts to curve to the north. You will see a wooded foot path to the west, that follows the lake to the south. Take the trail until you reach the end; you've reached Vadnais Point. You can return by following the trail on the north side of the point. Hug the lake to your north. The total hike is about 1.5 miles. If you enter at McMenemy Street and Koehler Road, you can begin on the trail on the north side of Vadnais Point. Take the gravel path south. The trail to Vadnais Point is just south of the wetland area off the gravel path. It SEE VADNAIS POINT, PAGE 21

Summer vacation

W

ith school fast approaching we took advantage of cheap airfare and booked a spur-of-the-moment trip to San Francisco for a long weekend in August. Amy and I had been there before, but it was the first time with our kids. We stayed in the Fisherman’s Wharf area, which was a good landing spot for getting around the city. Our first day we hopped on a historic cable car to explore Union Square and Chinatown. We walked Lombard Street, Ghirardelli Square and watched the sea lions and street performers at Pier 39. We had hoped to go to Alcatraz, which is operated under a contract granted by the National Park Service, but learned that we would have had to book the tour 45-60 days in advance. They no longer even fill last-minute spots for no-shows. The next day we rented bikes and rode across the Golden Gate bridge. The guy at the rental place suggested that we ride into the little town of Sausalito on the other side of the bridge for lunch. From there we could either ride back or hop on a ferry with our bikes. The across the bridge was pretty Publisher’s ride treacherous due to construction and the number of inexperienced View tourists riding bikes along a Carter Johnson two-way, narrow path; it is a bit challenging as the start has a good hill climb to the bridge. The rest of the trip is primarily downhill. The wind and fog can be damp and brisk. For those reasons, we opted to take the ferry back across the Bay. On day three we rented a car and drove up to Sonoma County and stayed for two nights along the coast in Bodega Bay. We walked the beach, toured a sustainable vineyard, and hiked through the giant redwoods at Armstrong Redwoods State Natural Reserve – free admission unlike the more popular National Park Muir Woods, and, in my opinion, it was better, as we walked into a nearly silent forest. The Redwoods can live to 2,000 years and stand 379.3 feet tall - the world tallest living thing. While the area is known for farming and is best known for wine production, we especially enjoyed the local restaurants, bakeries and side of the road cafes. A couple of things to keep in mind when planning a summer trip to the San Francisco area. Plan ahead and bring warm layers like sweatshirts or jackets. The fog hovers over the city and along the coast and it can be cool. Consider renting electric scooters or bikes to get around and better navigate the steep hills. For us, the trip provided the family togetherness we needed at the end of a summer where everyone seemed to go different directions. Honey Last year I wrote about learning how to become a beekeeper. Our family has had help from countless friends and neighbors in our beekeeping endeavor. It has been an interesting new hobby. My daughter, son and a neighbor have been involved with me and each of us has been stung a few times. Our first season was exciting because of so many unknowns. As fall approached last year it was clear the bees didn’t produce any honey, which was disappointing. We gave it another try this spring and bought two nuc (starter bee set of four frames of bees and a queen). This past weekend another beekeeping friend and I spun our frames and my family ended up with three gallons or about 36 pounds. If you’re looking to take on a new hobby or helping out your gardens, try your hand at beekeeping. Round up a few friends or neighbors, find a mentor, look for used equipment and start your hives in the spring of 2020. I can envision where keeping bees could become like community gardens within neighborhoods. Remember to check with your local municipality to make sure bees are legal in your area, and invest in a good beekeeper’s suit. A beekeeping friend reminds me of her great mentor Winnie the Pooh, who says, “You never can tell with bees.” The reward, though, is sweet. Carter Johnson is publisher of Press Publications.

Go on walks and try other physical activities together as a family. 4. Do things that promote positive body image such as: appreciating all that your body does for you; help your child see themselves as a whole person and not just a number, be a critical viewer of media and social media, remind kids that people come in all shapes and sizes and make a list of positive things about yourself. 5. Talk to kids about how they feel about themselves and food.

oping an eating disorder. That is why the recent release by Weight Watchers of a weight loss app, Kurbo by WW, targeted at children between the ages of 8-17 is particularly concerning. The app uses food tracking – categorizing food as green, yellow or red – and includes before and after “success stories”, complete with images of children before and after using the app. These food tracking practices can encourage feelings of guilt and shame around foods, and we know that associating guilt with foods can make those foods harder to resist and lead to overeating. In addition, having before and after images presents an unrealistic measure of success, and promotes thinness as the ideal body type – when we know health can come at any size. In general, there is not a lot of scientific evidence that dieting works for long term weight loss for people of any age. The approach for children and adolescents should focus on overall health, wellness, and long term healthy lifestyle behaviors including balanced eating and physical activity. Here are some tips that can help children develop a positive relationship with food that focus on overall health and wellness:

RICE STREET: Interesting history buried along road FROM PAGE 1

From the Shoreview Press, Nov. 2009, by historian Jack Koblas: “Cardigan Junction, the Sault Ste. Marie and Atlantic Railroad’s switching point, was built in 1888, halfway between Lake Owasso and Vadnais Lake, at a cost of $3,700. Commonly known as the Soo Line, the railroad built its fi rst station house in Minnesota at this site. Lines from St. Paul and Minneapolis came together at Cardigan Junction. Cars were uncoupled and transferred to sidetracks, where they were reassembled into new trains bound for the Twin Cities. Cardigan Junction had a 20-by-80foot depot and was operated around the clock by a telegrapher. The manager’s family also lived in part of the depot. Railroad tycoon James J. Hill had bricks for buildings on his North Oaks farm delivered there, then transported by horse and wagon to his farm. How Cardigan Junction received its name is not known, but many believe the general manager of the Soo Line named it in honor of Lord Cardigan, who led the Charge of the Light Brigade in the Crimean War (1853 – ’56). Here is an interesting side note to the name “Cardigan”: One of the newer buildings on the east side of Rice Street, just south of the Ste. Marie boarding house and Cardigan Junction Depot locations, is Cardigan Ridge Senior Living. Time marches on. But, let’s travel back in time to Ste. Marie’s boarding house … Sometime around the 1920s — the “Roaring ’20s” — the boarding house became the Oak Leaf Tavern, a “chicken shack” that catered to bootleggers and gangsters. The building directly next door/north of Oak Leaf Tavern may have been Green Gables, reported to be “a tough gangster bar.” St. Paul’s northern communities — especially heavily wooded lake areas such as Vadnais Heights, Little Canada and Shoreview — were safe havens for the big-name gangsters like Dillinger, Ma Barker and “fi xer” Harry (Dutch) Sawyer, who worked out a deal with the St. Paul police chief. The chief promised he would leave the gangsters alone as long as

they committed no crimes locally. By the 1930s the criminals had worn out their welcome, and the next storied business to occupy the lot next to Oak Leaf Tavern would eventually become known as the Vadnais Inn. It was demolished last year to accommodate the current Rice Street bridge construction. A 2018 “City Pages” headline for a tribute article to the Vadnais Inn described it as “the suburbs’ purest dive bar.” In the 1930s the Vadnais Inn was a convenience store and tavern — Toot’s Tavern, run by Emily Millette, a young widowed mother of four who was given the property by her parents so that she could support herself and her children. In time, Millette remarried and she and her husband, Dick Fenstermaker, operated the business together. The building was used as a house until it was reopened as a bar years later. According to the Vadnais Heights Press: “In recent years, it has been run by a couple whose romance budded at the bar. Kris John met her late husband Butch while he was working and she was a patron. He worked at the bar for about 30 years before he passed away two years ago. She has been working at the bar for about 25 years.” In the 1950s the Oak Leaf Tavern — originally the Ste. Marie boarding house — was bought by Dick and Mary Jacobsen; Dick and Mary’s Bar served customers for 30 years before the building was razed to make way for a Hardees Restaurant. Today it is a Caribou Coffee. “Tomorrow” — within 10 years, perhaps

ENDORSED LETTER TO THE EDITOR Elephant in the room

I’m writing today about the elephant in the room of the Ramsey County Commissioner race. Multiple local media outlets have found millions of dollars in fraud through the Minnesota Department of Human Services (DHS) Child Care Assistance Program. The DHS has been in turmoil. Top commissioners and deputies have resigned, and they are still under investigation by the Legislative Auditor. The top vote-getter in the primary race, Nicole Frethem, not only works for the DHS, she is supervisor of the Child Care Assistance Program. Someone who oversaw a department responsible for the fraud of millions of taxpayer dollars is utterly unqualified for elected office. We need to do better. Joyce Thompson Shoreview

LETTER TO THE EDITOR Concerns about new letter policy

I have enjoyed the freewheeling opinion pages in your Shoreview Press for many years. That is the reason that I have a paid subscription. I am concerned by your new policy and how it is to be applied. I am an independent who used to be a moderate Republican before the party sold itself to Donald Trump. I try to examine the positions taken by all candidates critically, DFL or Republican. I don’t usually say who I will vote for or encourage others to vote for any particular candidate or issue. But it is usually obvious who or what I support without my having to make a bald statement. Would you consider such a letter to be a candidate endorsement or advocacy for an issue? If so, I think two undesirable things are likely to happen. First, your newspaper will lose a lot of what makes it fun and informative. Your newspaper helps me understand how my neighbors look at candidates and issues. My neighbors and I are clever

enough to be able to separate the mindless political hacks from the folks who sincerely believe what they say and are rational about it. By trying to save a few dollars on one election-time issue of your paper, you will lose your newspaper’s attractiveness throughout the rest of the year. Second, by charging the $25 fee per letter, I think you will ensure that only subsidized political hacks from both parties monopolize the discussion. That would be a great loss. Depending upon how you implement this new policy, I may decide to cancel my subscription. That would be a loss to both of us. Greg Gross Shoreview

Mustangs finish strong to beat Bears 17-7 BY BRUCE STRAND SPORTS CONTRIBUTOR

With Cole Stenstrom delivering several key plays down the stretch, Mounds View dominated the fourth quarter and defeated White Bear Lake 17-7 at home Sept. 6. The third-year quarterback sparked two late touchdown drives by the Mustangs (2-0) after the Bears (1-1) took a brief 7-3 lead. Brian Tebbutt dashed for 108 yards in 20 carries, and the Mustang defense limited the Bears to 158 net yards. Stenstrom, after a slow start — the fi rst half ended 0-0 — completed 10 of 22 passes for 142 yards with one picked off. Ben Samuel booted a 33yard field goal and two conversions. “Things are not always going to go your way, and when your number is called you have to be ready to deliver. Most football games are decided on

four or five plays,” Mustang coach Aaron Moberg said, referring to clutch plays in the second half. “In the second half, we pressed the reset button. We played some sloppy football in the fi rst 24 minutes (fi rst half) but we responded.” Cam Zaleski gained 108 yards on 22 carries for the Bears but the Mustangs held them to 110 net yards on 39 ground plays and 4-for-7 passing for 48 yards. “They are really good on defense,” Bear coach Ryan Bartlett said about the Mustangs. “Their defensive backs are all 6-foot or more and very athletic, so it’s hard to throw on them.” White Bear Lake grabbed a 7-3 lead with their lone sustained drive of the game, capped by Jeff Odamtten’s sixyard touchdown and his extra-point kick, in the third quarter. Stenstrom took the Mustangs down the field and they faced a fourth-and-

Mustang soccer trips Stillwater 1-0 Mounds View boys soccer tripped defending state champion Stillwater 1-0 at home last Thursday with Zach Zengue delivering the lone goal. Midway through the second half, Zengue, sophomore midfielder, cut quickly from left to right and fi red from the top of the box, into the back of the net. The Mustangs improved to 2-5. “It was a great win against an excellent conference opponent,” said Mustangs coach Joe Warren. “Our team has been playing well the past few games and we finally put together a solid eighty minutes for the win.” Mounds View held the Ponies (2-3-2) to only three shots on goal. Warren credited the back line of George DeMay, Foster Conlin, Tyler Xiong and Shankar Mallikarjunan for stout defense and goalies Alex Catrine and Aidan Petrich for making saves when needed.

five play at the Bears nine. He nailed a tightly-covered Mason Dean for the fi rst down right at the four. On the next play, in shotgun formation, he dropped the center snap but quickly scooped the ball and slashed to the goal line. Ahead 10-7, the Mustangs forced a three-and-out, with the key play being A.J. Hunt’s sack of Branden Berwald. The Bear defense held, but on the Mustangs’ punt, Ben Kettelhut tackled Bear returner Brice Peters at the 12, and a penalty pinned the Bears on the seven. After another Bear punt from inside the five, the Mustangs were perched at midfield, and Stenstrom hit Jeff Roeber in stride for a 33yard touchdown with 3:07 left. Collin Hoyhtya caught four passes for 49 yards and Roeber two for 45. The Mustangs forced another punt and Stenstrom reeled off a 20-yard scramble to the Bears’ 12. At that

point, they took a knee and ran out the clock. Mounds View will play at Woodbury (0-2) on Friday evening.

Defense daunting again, Mustangs cuff Woodbury, 21-7 money,” the coach said, for a 43-yard touchdown. The Mustangs followed that quick strike with a 13-play, 60-yard drive capped by Stenstrom’s twoyard run. A special-teams touchdown made it 21-0 in third quarter as Ben Kettelhut shook loose a fumble on a Woodbury punt return and Mateo Cisneros scooped up the ball and raced 45 yards to score. Ben Samuel kicked his third conversion. Woodbury (0-3) averted the shutout on Brock Rinehart’s five-yard run with two minutes left. The Mustang interceptions were made by Cisneros, Nate Rewald, Jake Radabaugh and Brendan Dunagan. The victory came despite just 149 yards of offense. Woodbury limited Brian Tebbutt to 38 yards in 13 rushes. Stenstrom completed nine of 17 passes for 111 yards. Roeberg caught two for 54 yards. Tebbutt and Mason Dean each caught three for 24 yards. The Mustangs play at Minnetonka on Friday night.

BY BRUCE STRAND SPORTS CONTRIBUTOR

Mounds View’s predatory defense led to a 21-7 win over Woodbury on Friday evening as the Mustangs improved to 3-0. The Mustangs were boosted by four interceptions and a fumble recovery that was returned for a touchdown. Allowing just a single touchdown in each of their three games game, the Mustangs are ranked No. 5 in the metro area from the Star-Tribune. “Our defense has 11 guys doing their jobs consistently,” coach Aaron Moberg said. “Turnovers are always a big indicator of that. We had a five to one advantage against Woodbury.” Against Woodbury, the Mustangs suffered an early turnover themselves, but their defense forced a three-and-out on that possession and the next two. In the second quarter, the Mustangs took a 7-0 lead as wide receiver Jeff Roeber got open deep and quarterback Cole Stenstrom “put it right on the

Constitution Week remembered by Daughters of the American Revolution The Shoreview Harriet G. Walker Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution encourages citizens to familiarize themselves with two documents of paramount importance to American history: the Declaration of Independence, which forged our national identity, and the United States Constitution, which set forth the framework for the federal government that is still in use today. While Independence Day is a beloved national holiday, fewer people know about Constitution Week, an annual commemoration of the living document that upholds and protects the freedoms central to our American way of life. This year, the annual celebration begins Sept. 17. Chapters around the country will once again celebrate and promote Constitution Week by supporting classrooms and

libraries with flags, proclamations and reference materials. The Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR) initiated the observance in 1955, when the organization petitioned the U.S. Congress to dedicate September 17–23 of each year to the commemoration of Constitution Week. Congress adopted the resolution, and on Aug. 2, 1956, President Dwight D. Eisenhower signed it into Public Law #915. The celebration’s goals are threefold: to encourage the study of the historical events that led to the framing of the Constitution in September 1787; to inform people that the Constitution is the basis of America’s great heritage and the foundation of our way of life; and to emphasize U.S. citizens’ responsibility to protect, defend and preserve the Constitution. DAR has been the foremost advocate

for the awareness, promotion and celebration of Constitution Week. This annual observance provides innumerable opportunities for educational initiatives and community outreach, two mission areas of crucial importance to the National Society’s work. By fostering knowledge of and appreciation for the Constitution and the inalienable rights it affords to all Americans, DAR helps to keep alive the memory of the men and women who secured our nation’s independence, whose bravery and sacrifice made possible the liberties we enjoy today. “The framers created a Constitution that translated into law the ideals upon which our nation was built,” said DAR President General Denise Doring VanBuren. “Their vision was so forward thinking that their words still guide us today. No American

history education can be complete without a thorough understanding of the impact the Constitution has had on the lives of American citizens past and present.” One of the largest patriotic women’s organizations in the world, DAR has more than 185,000 members in approximately 3,000 chapters across the country and even in numerous foreign countries. DAR strives to promote historic preservation, education and patriotism via commemorative events, scholarships and educational initiatives, citizenship programs, service to veterans, meaningful community service, and more.

SOLID GROUND: Programs, heartfelt care help clients get back on their feet FROM PAGE 1

Still, the nonprofit has received great support from the community. Solid Ground receives about one-third of its funding from the government, onethird from grants and one-third from donations, which is unusual for a supportive housing organization. Many similar organizations receive 70 to 90% of funding from the government, Kauffman noted. Due to the variety of funding sources, Solid Ground can spend money on heartfelt care and programs to help get clients back on their feet. Volunteers also contribute to the cause. Every resident is given a welcome basket when they arrive and can pick items from the donation room for their apartment. Residents pick out furniture from Bridging, a furniture bank in Roseville for those in need. Residents work with a case manager who helps them work towards their goals for stability during their stay. Residents receive resources to work on parenting skills and attain education and career goals. Dialectical behavioral therapy is offered because many clients have been through trauma. Volunteers tutor children after school or serve community meals. Children are given birthday party baskets, bikes and packpacks for school. At Christmas, a Santa Workshop offers parents the opportunity to shop for free children’s toys. “I think that is something that is amazing and unique to us as an organization,” said Lizzie Rainville, director of development and communications. Solid Ground celebrates 30 years this fall with an Oct. 11 gala. Kauffman has been working at Solid Ground for 22 years, a large part of its history. She oversaw the name change from the East Metro Women’s Council to Solid Ground in 2013. She previously worked at a domestic violence shelter in Ohio. She recalls success stories of clients over the years. One of the fi rst clients to move into the permanent housing in White Bear Lake struggled with addiction. She overcame that and furthered her education. “She became a role model in this community,” Kauffman remembered. After three years, the client moved to a semirural area in Minnesota. Years later, she and her son came back to visit. Her son was now a senior in high school and captain of the football team. He remembered fondly his tutor from his time at Solid Ground. “It was just really powerful to me to know the struggles they had when they first came, and to see the progress in them was pretty awesome,” Kauffman said. Another client in the scattered site program had fled from domestic violence. Through her time with Solid Ground, she was able to attain a leadership position at work and work through grief. She was eventually able to get an apartment and launch off on her own. “Your time with us is a time to rebuild.

GOURDS Gourds are essentially ornamental squashes; they aren’t cultivated for eating. Instead they are bred to look beautiful and unique in autumn centerpieces. Types of gourds include autumn wing gourd, warted gourds, turban gourds, and bottle gourds. Each gourd is unique in its shape and color.

PUMPKINS Pumpkins come in ornamental and edible varieties. Even though all pumpkins can be consumed, some taste better than others. Small pumpkins tend to be decorative because, according to Nutritious Life, they do not have enough meat inside to make them worthy of cooking. However, sugar pumpkins are best for baking and cooking favorite recipes, states the resource Pumpkin Nook.

Plant fall bulbs right @V\ IV\NO[ ZWYPUN Ă…V^LYPUN bulbs in late summer or early fall and planted them at the recommended depth. But when spring arrived, you were disappointed.

Autumn is a prime time to tend lawns and gardens Autumn is gardening season. That statement may not seem right to those who think of the spring as the peak time to care for lawns and gardens. However, autumn is an ideal time to get into the garden HUK LUZ\YL [OH[ ÅV^LYZ [YLLZ and garden beds will over-winter successfully.

Rake and compost Rake the leaves and gather grass clippings to add to the compost pile. Plant spring bulbs Get tulips and other spring bulbs ready for planting so they’ll burst with color next year.

A number of things make autumn a prime gardening season. The cooler days of fall enable gardeners to spend ample time outdoors without the threat of blazing heat. In addition, soil harbors a lot of residual warmth in autumn. Also, the colder temperatures haven’t yet arrived in autumn, nor have the leaves completely fallen, making fall a prime time to assess what’s already in the landscape, what needs pruning back and where to address planting for next year. Gardening enthusiasts can focus their attention on these areas this fall: Pamper perennials As annuals and perennials start to fall back, mark the spots where perennials are located so they JHU IL LHZPS` PKLU[PÄLK SH[LY VU This way, when planning spots for spring bulbs or other spring layouts for next year, perennials won’t be overlooked or covered over. Prune shrubs Look at shrubs and trees and cut out dead or diseased wood. Clean up borders Weed and tidy up borders and lawn edging.

Dig up herbs Relocate herbs like parsley or basil to indoor gardens. Otherwise, strip all leaves and freeze for storage during winter. Consider mums Chrysanthemum plants are perennials. While they look beautiful in pots, if planted, maintained and winterized, they can bloom every fall. Fertilize the lawn Fertilizing in autumn helps ensure grass will stay healthy throughout the winter.

SUBMITTED

Mums are perennials. When properly planted and cared for, they can bloom every autumn.

Install pavers or rock wall Embrace the cooler temperatures to work on labor-intensive projects, such as putting in a garden bed, retaining wall or walkway.

Remove spent summer veggies Take out vegetable garden plants that have already bloomed and borne fruit. Tidy up vegetable gardens and start to sow cooler weather plants, such as onions, garlic, beans, and sweet peas.

Add mulch and compost to the garden Replenish spent soil with mulch and compost so garden beds will be revitalized for spring planting. Prune hedges Tidy up hedges, as they won’t be growing much more this year. Clean and store equipment Clean, sharpen and oil all equipment, storing lawn and garden tools properly so they are ready for spring and not lying out all winter.

Commissioner of Education: ‘The state of our students is promising’ The Minnesota Department of Education (MDE) recently released the State of Our Students report, a first-of-its-kind compilation of multiple data that included 2019 accountability data from the North Star accountability system. North Star data in the report show that no new schools are identified for support under the 2019 North Star data beyond schools already receiving support from MDE. “The state of our students is promising, and it’s up to us to meet their promise with our support,” said Education Commissioner Mary Cathryn Ricker. “Too often, we condense our students down to one single data point, which eliminates everything about our students that make them who they are. By looking at a broader collection of data side by side, we can easily see the many things we have to celebrate about our students and the best strategies to support them to reach their full potential. My promise to our students is to continue seeing their strengths, persist alongside them and tackle the barriers that stand in their way.”

The State of Our Students report finds: • The number of American Indian students taking the ACT has more than doubled since 2014. • ACT participation increased 70% for black students between 2014 and 2018. • 70% of black high school graduates enrolled in higher education within 16 months of graduation. • 76.3% of Hispanic students graduated from high school in seven years. • Minnesota’s English learners speak 226 different languages all together. • The four-year graduation rate for students concentrating in career and technical education (CTE), students completing 240 CTE course hours within one career field, is 92%. • 83.2% of all Minnesota students

graduated from high school in four years, the highest rate on record. • 62.8% of students with disabilities were educated in a general education classroom for at least 80 percent of their day. “The way we use data influences the decisions that we make. By looking at a more complete picture of our students, I am dedicated to find ways to best serve every student,” said Ricker. “The State of Our Students report clearly tells me that our students take advantage of every opportunity brought to them. When we open the doors, our students bust through them. Our students’ potential, and their determination to succeed, is more than ambitious—it is promising for our future and meeting their ambition with our support that will turn Minnesota into the Education State.” The report shows that persistent gaps between student groups remain largely the same from 2018 to 2019. For American Indian students, 57.6% consistently attended at least 90% of school days, compared to 78.8% of Hispanic students and 91.3% of Asian students. 2019 math achievement rates dipped slightly for all students in 2019, with rates for each individual student group following suit. Reading achievement rates held steady from 2018 to 2019, and gaps between student groups remained much the same. “Gaps needs to be closed,” said Ricker. “Minnesota students face gaps in learning, housing, household income, health and more. That’s why I’m committed to finding ways to serve the whole child, so all children have the support they need to succeed in the classroom. If we keep doing the same things, we will keep getting the same results. I am committed to reimagining what education can be in the state of Minnesota. And that includes resisting the urge to rely on test scores as our sole

indicator of progress.” The State of Our Students report includes an update on Minnesota’s North Star accountability system launched in 2018 to identify schools for support. The North Star accountability system was developed over recent years in partnership with thousands of Minnesotans and dozens of community organizations to satisfy and align requirements of the federal Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) and the state’s World’s Best Workforce law (WBWF). North Star uses data from the five key indicators — achievement and progress on state reading and math tests over time, progress toward English language proficiency, graduation rates and consistent attendance. Under the system, the state is better able to identify schools that consistently perform at high levels across multiple domains and schools that need support in reaching their goals. The five indicators expand the use of data beyond test scores. Parents and community members can review a variety of data points, including North Star data for schools and districts, by visiting the Minnesota Report Card. Visitors to the site will find information about schools recognized for excellence or prioritized for support. The report card includes a narrative provided directly from the local school as well as information about all schools and districts, including North Star results, staffing data, preschool participation, rigorous course-taking patterns and more. To comply with federal laws, changes have been made in the Minnesota report card to protect the identity of students. Data reported on less than 10 students in a category will no longer be available in the assessment reports on the Minnesota Report Card. Submitted by the Minnesota Department of Education

PUBLIC SAFETY BRIEFS 100 deadliest days Memorial Day weekend through Labor Day, known as the 100 deadliest days on Minnesota roads, again proved to be a tragic time in 2019, according to the Minnesota Department of Public Safety. More than half

of the traffic fatalities so far this year occurred during this period. There were 132 deaths this summer, including a twocar crash that took six lives. The 132 lives lost represent 57% of all traffic fatalities so far in 2019. The 123 fatalities during

the 100 deadliest days in 2018 represented 53% of traffic fatalities during the same time period last year. Preliminary numbers show that of the 132 deaths, at least 10 are known to be distraction-related, compared with nine in 2018.

This ad is for anybody with a bathroom. Cleaning your bathroom is a great way to keep your bathroom looking nice. There is a point when cleaning stops working. Grout is falling out of grout lines, tiles are falling off the walls, stains keep re-appearing and mold is taking over. Your tile may be outdated which is understandable. Bathroom designs are ever-changing and a typical bathroom has a life span of 15 years with average usage. We can offer you a chance to obtain your dream bathroom without the gimmicks or false advertising. Give us a call and set up your free estimate this week. We can guide you to the newest and upcoming bathroom designs and products. We will provide a price to do your project within a week after the initial visit. Call YoungCastle and look forward to enjoying your bathroom again.

The view from Vadnais Point in Vadnais-Snail Lakes Regional Park this month.

VADNAIS POINT: Quite the view FROM PAGE 1

is nearly hidden under some low-growing trees. There are several deer trails that veer off this trail. Hang to the right and head to the lakeshore, which can be seen through the trees, for the easiest and quickest path to the point. You can hug the south side of the point on your return. The total hike is about 1 mile. You will encounter downed trees and inclines of up to 15 feet on the trail. Hiking shoes are recommended. Hike when it is dry to avoid slipping in the mud.

SARA MARIE MOORE, VIA MAPMYWALK | PRESS PUBLICATIONS

The hike is about 1.5 miles from Edgerton Street or about 1 mile from the corner of McMenemy Street and Koehler Road.
